Bored...

"You are not going to be bored serving God.
Every time we say 'yes' to our flesh and 'no' to God, we are hurting ourselves.
People who want us to please them won't be happy, even when we do.
Real friends will say 'you need to do what feels right for you.'
We won't be happy pleasing people if we are not pleasing God."
Joyce Meyer

Bored...

"I have never been bored. I get up every morning wondering what strange new glamerous thing is going to happen - and it happens at fairly regular intervals.

Only some people are dour, and when she serves them the come hither with her eyes, they look down or turn away and lift an eyebrow. But me, I give her the wink and away we go."
