For everything there is a season,

And a time for every matter under heaven:

A time to be born, and a time to die;
A time to plant, and a time to pluck up what is planted;
A time to kill, and a time to heal;
A time to break down, and a time to build up;
A time to weep, and a time to laugh;
A time to mourn, and a time to dance;

A time to throw away stones, and a time to gather stones together;

A time to embrace, And a time to refrain from embracing;
A time to seek, and a time to lose;
A time to keep, and a time to throw away;
A time to tear, and a time to sew;
A time to keep silence, and a time to speak;
A time to love, and a time to hate,
A time for war, and a time for peace.
- Ecclesiastes 3:1-8

Rules from God

1. Wake Up !!  Decide to have a good day. 

"Today is the day the Lord hath made; let us rejoice and be glad in it" Psalms 118:24 
 2. Dress Up !!  The best way to dress up is to put on a smile. A smile is an
inexpensive way to improve your looks. "The Lord does not look at the things man looks at.
Man looks at outward appearance; but the Lord looks at the heart." 
I Samuel 16:7 

3 Shut Up!!  Say nice things and learn to listen. God gave us two ears and one
mouth, so He must have meant for us to do twice as much listening as talking. "He who
guards his lips guards his soul." Proverbs 13:3 

4. Stand Up!!... For what you believe in. Stand for something or you will fall for anything..
"Let us not be weary in doing good; for at the proper time, we will reap a harvest if we do
not give up. Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good..." Galatians 6:9-10 

5. Look Up !!...  To the Lord. 

"I can do everything through Christ who strengthens me." 
Philippians 4:13 

6. Reach Up !!...  For something higher. "Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and
lean not unto your own understanding. In all your ways, acknowledge Him, And He will
direct your path." 
Proverbs 3:5-6 

7. Lift Up !!...  Your Prayers. 

"Do not worry about anything; 
Instead PRAY ABOUT EVERYTHING." 
Philippians 4:6
