GOOD ADVICE

 

Hello family and friends, remember I've told you before that I like wise sayings and good advice. Here are some words written by Abraham Lincoln:

1) You cannot create prosperity by discouraging self-initiative.

2) You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong.

3) You cannot help the small by crushing the large.

4) You cannot help the poor by destroying the rich.

5) You cannot raise wages by attacking those who pay the wages.

6) You cannot solve your economic problems by spending more than you earn.

7) You cannot promote brotherhood among humanity by inciting class and racial hatred.

8) You cannot guarantee security with borrowed money.

9) You cannot form a person's character and courage by taking

away their independence, freedom, and initiative.

10) You cannot help people by constantly doing for them what they can and should do for themselves.

To this list of good advice, I want to add two more:

11) You cannot force others to seek God's ways; only pray for them.

12) You cannot save anyone; only Jesus Christ can do that.

Remember that salvation is infinitely costly, but absolutely

free; let us work out our salvation with fear and trembling (Philippians 2:12). If you want to receive salvation, you must accept Jesus Christ as the Lord of your life. Come on, decide for Him!

Fools despise wisdom and good advice, but you shouldn't be one of them.

With love,

María Fanny Agudelo
