99% of the time, in my experience, the hard part about creativity isn’t coming up with something no one has ever thought of before. The hard part is actually executing the thing you’ve thought of.

Palm Sunday
The next day the huge crowd that had arrived for the Feast heard that Jesus was entering Jerusalem. They broke off palm branches and went out to meet him. And they cheered: Hosanna! Blessed is he who comes in God’s name! Yes! The King of Israel!
Jesus got a young donkey and rode it, just as the Scripture has it: No fear, Daughter Zion: See how your king comes, riding a donkey’s colt. The disciples didn’t notice the fulfillment of many Scriptures at the time, but after Jesus was glorified, they remembered that what was written about him matched what was done to him.
John 12:12-16
Genius is the ability to reduce the complicated to the simple.

The goal of life is to take everything that made you weird as a kid and get people to pay you money for it when you’re older.

Me and My Big Mouth
Today we started a new series entitled “HUSH” at People’s Church. Proverbs 17:28 says, “Even fools are thought wise when they keep silent; with their mouths shut, they seem intelligent”. Our words are very important. So to keep in theme with our current series I thought I would share seven sayings that remind us that sometimes the smartest thing we can say is nothing.
- “Half the world is composed of people who have something to say and can’t, and the other half who have nothing to say and keep on saying it.” - Robert Frost
- “Among my most prized possessions are words that I have never spoken.” - Orson Rega Card
- “By swallowing evil words unsaid, no one has ever harmed his stomach.” - Winston Churchill
- “Speak when you are angry and you will make the best speech you will ever regret.” - Ambrose Bierce
- “If you wouldn’t write it and sign it, don’t say it.” - Earl Wilson
- “The more the words, the less the meaning, and how does that profit anyone?” - King Solomon
- “Never miss a good chance to shut up.” – Will Rogers
Do all the good you can, by all the means you can, in all the ways you can, in all the places you can, at all the times you can, to all the people you can, as long as you ever can.
John Wesley
