Memorial Day, 2023… Paul Beverly

Posted in #PaulthePoke, Paul Beverly with tags , , on May 28, 2023 by paulthepoke

Tomorrow is never guaranteed, so don’t live like it is. Live each day as if it’s your last. Choose to spend your time wisely, doing what’s good & loving others. God gave us this life for a purpose, live with that purpose.

Ephesians 5:16 Make the best use of time, because the days are evil.

James 4:14 Yet you do not know what tomorrow will bring. What is your life? For you are a mist that appears for a little time & then vanishes.

Proverbs 27:1 Do not boast about tomorrow, for you do not know what a day may bring.

Psalm 144:4 Man is like a breath; his days are like a passing shadow.

Have a purpose filled Memorial Day Weekend my friends!!!

Bitterness, Let It Go… Paul Beverly

Posted in #PaulthePoke, Paul Beverly with tags , , , on April 20, 2023 by paulthepoke

What good comes from bitterness & anger? It not only affects the people you are showing these acts towards, but it holds you back & keeps you from peace & God’s blessings. Being angry & bitter won’t fix anything, but love & forgiveness will. Let go & let God!

Hebrews 12:14-15 Strive for peace with everyone, and for the holiness without which no one will see the Lord. See to it that no one fails to obtain the grace of God; that no “root of bitterness” springs up and causes trouble, and by it many become defiled.

Romans 12:18 If possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all.

Proverbs 3:30 Do not contend with a man for no reason, when he has done you no harm.

Have a grace filled week my friends!!!

Rumors… Paul Beverly

Posted in #PaulthePoke, Paul Beverly with tags on March 4, 2023 by paulthepoke

Rumors are started by those that want to draw attention away from their own darkness. Jealousy & their own misery will make people talk. If you weren’t there & didn’t see it, take what you hear with a grain of salt & don’t repeat it.

I could tell someone that I saw so & so talking to so & so at a quick stop & by the time it is told to 10 people…the rumor is I saw them robbing the quick stop & having sex in the get away car. 

Rumors are ridiculous & can destroy lives. If you are not talking good about someone, don’t talk about them at all.

James 1:26 If anyone thinks he is religious and does not bridle his tongue but deceives his heart, this person’s religion is worthless.

James 4:11-12 Do not speak evil against one another, brothers. The one who speaks against his brother or judges his brother, speaks evil against the law & judges the law. But if you judge the law, you are not a doer of the law but a judge. There is only one lawgiver & judge, he who is able to save & to destroy. But who are you to judge your neighbor?

Have a rumor free weekend my friends!!!

What Is Love? Paul Beverly

Posted in #PaulthePoke, Paul Beverly with tags , on January 9, 2023 by paulthepoke

What is loveLove is many things. There is love for your friends, love for your family, love for your children, love for your spouse/partner. These are all different kinds of love really. We are supposed to love everyone & sometimes that’s not easy, but it’s the way it’s supposed to be. Love is also a choice I believe. We choose to either keep doing the things to continue the love or we choose to not do these things. The one thing all these loves have in common is found in…

1 Corinthians 13:4-7… Love is patient & kind, love does not envy or boast, it is not arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way, it is not irritable or resentful, it does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth. Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.

Have a perfect loving week my friends!!!

Helping Others… Paul Beverly

Posted in #PaulthePoke, Paul Beverly with tags , , , , on November 10, 2022 by paulthepoke

This life isn’t about what we can do for ourselves or selfishly using others for our own interests. It’s about helping each other get to where we need to be. We all want the same thing, to be happy & accomplish our goals. To eventually raise our children in a good healthy environment.

I believe when given the opportunity, we should help others. I have found it makes me feel a lot better when I’m able to do even the smallest of things for someone & maybe make their life a little easier or better. How awesome would it be if we had a community, or even a world full of us helping one another? Let’s help each other succeed.

Galatians 6:10 So then, as we have opportunity, let us do good to everyone, and especially to those who are of the household of faith.

Philippians 2:4 Let each of you look not only to his own interests, but also the interests of others.

Romans 12:10 Love one another with brotherly affection. Outdo one another in showing honor.

Have an unselfish and helping week my friends!!!

Whose Approval??? Paul Beverly

Posted in #PaulthePoke, Paul Beverly with tags , , , on August 26, 2022 by paulthepoke

Why do we seek the approval of others more so than we seek the approval of God? Why do we let the opinions of others affect us so much?

Do not let the opinions of others dictate who you think you should be. Just be you & do what you know is right in your heart & naturally attract those that are right for you.

Stop doing backflips for people that will only use you to benefit themselves. Be happy in God rather than miserable being who you aren’t. Avoid fools.

Galatians 1:10 For am I now seeking the approval of man, or of God? Or am I trying to please man? If I were still trying to please man, I would not be a servant to God.

Proverbs 18:2 A fool takes no pleasure in understanding, but only in expressing his opinion.

Have a great weekend my friends!!!

Paralysis by Analysis… Paul Beverly

Posted in #PaulthePoke, Paul Beverly with tags , , , on June 11, 2022 by paulthepoke

Sometimes we are our own worst enemy with over thinking. Over thinking is poison. Live in the moment & be thankful for all you have & have faith in the good things God has planned for you. Don’t over think your way out of his blessings. God’s got this.

John 16:33 I have said these things to you, that in me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation. But take heart, I have overcome the world.

John 14:27 Peace I leave with you; My peace I give to you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled; do not be afraid. -Jesus

Have a peace filled weekend my friends!!!

Ya Gotta Have Faith… Paul Beverly

Hebrews 11:1 Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen.

Faith in God is everything! Maybe because we lose faith in others, it makes us question our faith in God. We must have faith that He’s hearing our prayers. We must have faith that He will guide us. We must have faith in His timing. All God truly wants is complete faith from us. That faith will change your life.

2 Corinthians 5:7 For we walk by faith, not by sight.

Matthew 21:22 And whatever you ask in prayer, you will receive, if you have faith.

Have a believing weekend my friends!!!

All Created by God… Paul Beverly

Posted in #PaulthePoke, Paul Beverly with tags , , , on April 20, 2022 by paulthepoke

Proverbs 22:2 The rich and the poor meet together; the Lord is the maker of them all.

Nobody is better than you & you are not better than anyone else. God created us all equal. I’ve hung out with millionaires & sat & visited with the homeless. We’ve all got a story & our book isn’t finished yet. We can’t be sure why anyone is where they are in life, but I know God wants to bless us all & He isn’t partial to one over the other.

Your race, political views, religion, or sexual preference don’t mean much to me. How you treat others does. Don’t be a crappy or hateful person. Choose to be kind & loving…

See the good in everyone.

Ephesians 5:21 Submitting to one another out of reverence for Christ.

Galatians 3:28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is no male & female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus.

Have a great week my friends!!!

Words, Words, Words… Paul Beverly

Kind words can change a person’s day & whole outlook. Point out the good you see in others. They deserve to feel special, because they are.

Be careful of what & how you speak to others. Your words have the power to encourage & build others up, or your words can leave scars that may never heal. Think before you speak. Remember what your momma use to say, if you don’t have anything nice to say, don’t say anything at all.

Proverbs 13:3 Those who guard their lips preserve their lives, but those that speak rashly will come to ruin.

Proverbs 12:18 The words of the reckless pierce like swords, but the tongue of the wise brings healing.

Proverbs 16:24 Gracious words are like a honeycomb, sweetness to the soul & health to the body.

Proverbs 25:11 A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in a setting of silver.

Have a kind and healing week my friends!!!
