Think hard before you act today,
because the way you act will determine multiple outcomes
for you and others.

Think before you speak
“Speaking is silver, but silence is gold.”
- General saying
"When I want to speak let me think first. Is it true?
Is it kind? Is it necessary? If not let it be unsaid."
- Maltbie D. Babcock
”He who permits himself to tell a lie once,
finds it much easier to do it a second and third time,
till at length it becomes habitual; he tells lies without attending to it,
and truths without the world's believing him.
This falsehood of the tongue leads”
-- Thomas Jefferson
"Finally, whatever is true, whatever is noble,
whatever is right, whatever is pure,
whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable -
if anything is excellent or praiseworthy -
think about such things."
Philippians 4:8
God, let my eyes always be focused on the right things.
Let me be of good behaviour among the Gentiles
and always speak the truth, in a peaceful and loving manner.
Dutch version / Nederlandse versie > Eerst denken dan praten

Act as if everything you think, say and do determines your entire life
"Act as if everything you think,
say and do determines your entire life
- because in reality, it does!"
- Laurelle Adrian
"Therefore, prepare your minds for action;
be self-controlled;
set your hope fully on the grace to be given you
when Jesus Christ is revealed."
1 Peter 1:13
Lord let me always do right.
Girded me with the armour of truth and justice.
Let me always be sensible and sober in order to work on this earth for you.
Dutch version / Nederlandse versie > Handel alsof alles wat je denkt, zegt en doet uw hele leven bepaalt

Life is like a ten-speed bike.
"Life is like a ten-speed bike. Most of us have gears we never use."
- Charles M. Schultz
Do More
"Do more than exist ... live.
Do more than touch ... feel.
Do more than look ... observe.
Do more than read ... absorb.
Do more than hear ... listen.
Do more than think ... ponder.
Do more than talk ... say something."
- John H. Rhoades
"To do righteousness and justice is more
acceptable to the LORD than sacrifice."
Proverbs 21:3
"Jesus replied:
"'Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.'
This is the first and greatest commandment.
And the second is like it: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.'"
Matthew 22:37-39
Lord let me win the race of this life
and give that I use the correct gears to my goal.
Give me enough inspiration, strength and love for people, animals and plants around me
to treat them with goodness and glory of your name.
