Please proceed with caution...

Over the past year or so I have been stealing quotes off of other people's facebook pages, blogs, bible lessons, etc.  I have kept these quotes in a nice and neat file on my computer only to be revealed...NOW!  I have titled this blog please proceed with caution because you are entering into some of my deeper thoughts.  These mean something to me and you may not like them.  It is perfectly ok if you do not agree, please feel free to state your opinion! 

-"Christian Character is who you are when no Christian is watching"

-"A thorough knowledge of the Bible is worth more than a college education"

-"Dance like no one is watching, Sing like no one is listening, Love like you've never been hurt before, and Live like Heaven begins tomorrow"
-Unknown

-"Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable if anything is excellent or praiseworthy think about such things."        
      -Philippians 4:8

-"All I have seen teaches me to trust the Creator for all I have not seen"
      -Ralph Waldo Emerson

-"Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail"
       -Ralph Waldo Emerson

-"Perhaps they are not the stars, but rather openings in Heaven where the love of our lost ones pours through and shines down upon us to let us know they are happy."
       -Unknown

-"I'm selfish, impatient, and insecure.  I make mistakes.  I am out of control and at times, hard to handle.  But if you can't handle me at my worst, then you don't deserve me at my best."
     -Marilyn Monroe

-"Just because you fail once, doesn't mean you're gonna fail at everything.  Keep trying and believe in yourself!"
     -Marilyn Monroe

-"And sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together."
    -Marilyn Monroe

-"Watch your thoughts, they become words.  Watch your words, they become actions.  Watch your actions, they become habits.  Watch your habits, they become your character.  Watch your character, it becomes your destiny."
      -Unknown

-"When I say..."I am a Christian" I'm not shouting "I'm clean living" I'm whispering, "I was lost, now I'm found and I'm forgiven".  When I say..."I'm a Christian" I don't speak of this with pride.  I'm confessing that I stumble and need CHRIST to be my guide.  When I say..."I'm a Christian" I'm not trying to be strong.  I'm professing that I'm weak and need HIS strength to carry on.  When I say..."I'm a Christian" I'm not bragging of success.  I'm admitting I have failed and need God to clean my mess.  When I say..."I'm a Christian" I'm not claiming to be perfect.  My flaws are too visible, but God believes I am worth it.  When I say..."I'm a Christian" I still feel the sting of pain.  I have my share of heartaches so I call upon his name.  When I say..."I am a Christian" I'm not holier than though, I'm just a simple sinner who received God's good grace, somehow."
    -Unknown

-"There are many things in life that will catch your eye, but only a few will catch your heart...pursue those!"
     -Unknown

-"Imperfection is beauty, madness is genius, and it's better to be absolutely ridiculous than absolutely boring!"
    -Marilyn Monroe

-"The real lover is the man who can thrill you by kissing your forehead or smiling into your eyes or just staring into space."
    -Marilyn Monroe

-"For I know the plans I have for you declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future"
   -Jeremiah 29:11

-We always wonder: "Why me God, instead think well why not me?"

-"Cussing is the vocabulary of the powerless"

-"A man reaps what he sows"

Well there they are! I left some of the more thought provoking quotes out just because: A. They are direct quotes from people I am friends with. B. They are too personal. C. This post is getting way too long.  I hope you guys enjoy these quotes.  I've enjoyed avoiding my homework in order to blog!
