20 Things to Remember
2. If you worry, you didn't pray. If you prayed, don't worry.
3. As a child of God, prayer is kinda like calling home every day.
4. Blessed are the flexible, for they shall not be bent out of shape.
5. When we get tangled up in our problems, be still. God wants us to be still so to untangle the knot.
6. Do the math. Count your blessings.
7 God wants spiritual fruit, not religious nuts.
8. Dear God: I have a problem. It's me.
9. Silence is often misinterpreted, but never misquoted.
10. Laugh every day -- it's like inner jogging.
11. The most important things in your home are the people.
12. Growing old is inevitable, growing up is optional.
13. There is no key to happiness. The door is always open. Come on in.
14. A grudge is a heavy thing to carry.
15. Those who dies with the most toys are still dead.
16. We do not remember days, but moments. Life moves too fast, so enjoy your precious moments.
17. Nothing is real to you until you experience it; otherwise it's just hearsay.
18. It's all right to sit on your pity pot every now and again. Just be sure to flush when you are done.
19 Surviving and living your life successfully requires courage. The goals and dreams you're seeking require courage and risk-taking. Learn from the turtle, it makes progress only when it sticks out its neck.
20. Be more concerned with your character than your reputation. Your character is what you really are, while your reputation is... merely what others think you are.

President's Thoughts

Easy Riders Bike Show was huge success. We had a good turn out of members. I think the King Ambassadors were glad we came. We received a thank you from them. The ride to Springfield for the All Christian Biker gathering was very cold and a little wet on the way home. There was a good turn out of all the Christian groups. The Gypsy Jokers came also. I wish they could have talked and expressed there views but they were not allowed to. I think we need to minister to them when ever we get a chance. Praise God.
Season of Refreshing is coming up in March at Yakima. So plan to attend. I will have dates and time at the meeting. I like going to Seasons so I can be ready for the coming ministering season. and our state Coordinator ( Ralph ) always has good words for us. You also get a chance to meet Joe Maxwell are regional Rep. and all the other CMA members from around the state.
That's about it for this month.
Your Servant,
Carl
