BIBLE VERSE OF THE DAY
"I say, 'I will forget my complaint, I will change my expression, and smile.'" --Job 9:27
Blessed be your glorious name, and may it be exalted above all blessing and praise. -- Nehemiah 9:5
I urge you, brothers, in view of God's mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God this is your spiritual act of worship. HYPERLINK "http://www.biblestudytools.com/search/?query=Romans+12:1&t=niv"Romans 12:1
HEARTLIGHT DAILY VERSE, PRAYER & THOUGHT
"`If you can'?" said Jesus. "Everything is possible for him who believes." HYPERLINK "http://bible.faithlife.com/bible/niv/Mark9.23"Mark 9:23
Thought: Jesus is the ultimate one "who believes." All things ARE possible for him. Guess what? He longs to do great things through us, too! In fact, he promised he would do even greater things through us than he did himself because he is now at the Father's side helping us! (See HYPERLINK "http://bible.faithlife.com/bible/niv/John14.12-14"John 14:12-14.) So isn't it time that we quit talking about what we can't do, and start believing in the one who can do great things? Paul put it this way: God can do "more than we can ask or imagine by his power at work in us." (HYPERLINK "http://bible.faithlife.com/bible/niv/Ephesians3.20-21"Ephesians 3:20-21)
Prayer: Great Almighty God, Ruler of the nations, Creator of the universe, and Lord of all things, please forgive me. Forgive me for my wimpy and limited prayers. Forgive me for getting involved in petty quarrels over mundane and irrelevant things. Forgive me for my spiritual lack of vision. Please stir me by your Spirit. Please open my eyes so that I can see what you long to do through me. Please empower me to be a powerful witness to our world trapped in darkness. Please give me incredible dreams for your Kingdom, then astound me by doing far more than I ever imagined. In the name of Jesus, and to your glory, I pray. Amen.
The Thoughts and Prayers for Today's Verse are written by HYPERLINK "mailto:phil@heartlight.org"Phil Ware. You can email questions or comments to HYPERLINK "mailto:phil@heartlight.org"phil@heartlight.org.

SECRETS OF THE UNIVERSE
How faithful is Old Faithful, really?
The most famous geyser in Yellowstone National Park is Old Faithful. Contrary to its name, Old Faithful is not all that punctual. Instead of erupting every 60 minutes some 24 times each day, it actually erupts between 18 and 21 times each day. The interval between the eruptions has been increasing over the past 25 years. It is suspected that the interval has been lengthening due to earthquake activity and human vandalism. Today it erupts every 34 to 106 minutes.

THE FILES OF LAW & DISORDER
A robber picks a very unusual disguise to rob a mini-mart!
FILE #1: James Hardt, can't win when it comes to robbing mini-marts, and he probably wouldn't win a costume contest either. James planned to hold up the local mini-mart where he was a regular customer, so he would need a good disguise. Did he don a Halloween mask? No. Put some panty hose over his head? Nope. Put on a ski mask? Nah. For reasons known only to James, he picked shaving cream as his disguise. With his face slathered in Foamy he walked in and demanded money. Of course, the store manager immediately recognized him and James made a hasty exit only to be apprehended by the cops a short time later.
FILE #2: Four men robbed a Chinese food delivery driver, striking him over the head with a package of prawn crackers and getting away with a large order of Chinese take out. Police were called and upon arrival they found the trail was still warm. Hot in fact. It seems one of the bags of food had sprung a leak, leaving a trail of curry sauce that led directly to our culprits' flat nearby. They were arrested before they had a chance to enjoy their fortune cookies.
FILE #3: Its not known if Jeffrey Williams bark is worse then his bite, considering his bark got him arrested. The 25-year-old man from Erie, Pennsylvania was recently convicted for "barking at dogs" who were in a parked car Williams spotted the dogs sitting in the car and decided to start barking at them. He soon worked the dogs into a frenzy, despite being told to stop. Oh yeah, these just werent any dogs in any car. They were police dogs sitting in a parked police cruiser. He kept barking at them even though patrolman Lester Fetterman told him to stop. Williams was convicted of harassing police dogs and was sentenced to 90 days probation.
STRANGE LAW: In Waterville, Maine, it is illegal to blow one's nose in public.
THIS IS YOUR BRAIN ON DRUGS
A Colorado couple found an unusual topping on their order of tacos: a small bag of marijuana.
They discovered the drugs with their order from a Del Taco restaurant and called police, said Lakewood police spokesman Steve Davis. Twenty-six-year-old Dennis Klermund, who police say waited on the husband when he picked up food Oct. 16, faces charges of possession of marijuana and drug paraphernalia. Klermund initially denied any knowledge but admitted the bag was meant for a friend after a search dog found more marijuana in a locker, police said. Klermund no longer works at the restaurant, said manager Ulises Montero. A message left for Klermund was not returned.
PHONER PHUN
A recent survey conducted by NDS, a DVR manufacturer, has shown that digital video recorders (DVR's) are becoming a significant part of U.S. households, being cited just behind mobile phones as the most essential, can't-live-without household technology item. Only microwaves and washing machines beat it out in the non-technological category. PHONER: What is your cant-live-without household technology item?
BIBLE BRAIN BUSTER!
QUESTION: What boy had a coat made for him each year by his mother?ANSWER: Samuel (1 Samuel 2:18,19 = "But Samuel was ministering before the Lord - a boy wearing a linen ephod. Each year his mother made him a little robe and took it to him when she went up with her husband to offer the annual sacrifice.")
NOTE: A linen ephod is a close-fitting, sleeveless, apron-like garment worn almost exclusively by the priest when officiating before the altar.

THE WAY TOO EARLY IN THE MORNING TO UNDERSTAND THE PUNCHLINE EVEN AFTER TWO CUPS OF COFFEE JOKE OF THE DAY
JOKE #1
A family who had just moved into a new neighborhood was anxious to make a good impression. But the neighbors seemed cold and made no overtures of welcome. The mother of the brood was overjoyed when finally her youngest son ran in and announced happily, "Mommy, the lady down the street asked my name today!"
"Oh, how nice!" exclaimed the mother enthusiastically.
"And then what did she do?"
"Then she gave it to the policeman." the boy said.
JOKE #2
A city man was tooling down a country road when his car sputtered to a complete stop near a field filled with cows. The driver, getting out to see what was the matter, noticed one of the cows looking at him.
"I believe it's your radiator," said the cow.
The man nearly jumped right out of his city slicker britches! He ran to the nearest farmhouse and knocked on the door.
"A cow just gave me advice about my car!" he shouted, waving his arms franticly back toward the field.
The farmer nonchalantly leaned out beyond the door frame to glance down the field. "The cow with two big black spots on it?" the farmer asked slowly.
"Yes! Yes! That's the one!" the excited man replied.
"Oh. Well, that's Ethel," the farmer said, turning back to the man. "Don't pay any attention to her. She doesn't know a thing about cars."
JOKE #3
A man walks into a friend and sees that his friend's car is total wreck and covered with leaves, grass, branches, dirt and blood. He asks his friend, "What's happened to your car?"
"Well," the friend responses, "I ran into a lawyer".
"OK," says the man, "that explains the blood.. But what about the leaves, the grass, the branches and the dirt?"
"Well, I had to chase him all through the park."

FEATURED FUNNIES
MY DAD IS FASTER THAN YOURS
Three boys were heading home from school one day when one started the time-honored game of paternal one-upmanship. He said, "My dad's way faster than any of yours, he can throw a 90-mph fast ball from the pitcher's mound and run and catch it just after it crosses the plate!"One of the other boys said, "Oh yeah? Well, my dad can shoot an arrow from his bow and run to the target and hold it up to make sure the arrow hits the bulls-eye!"The last boy said, "Your dads don't even come close to being faster than mine. My dad works for the government, and even though he works every day until 4:00 he gets home at 3:30!"
IT MUST BE TRUE BECAUSE I HEARD IT ON THE RADIO!
A GUN IN YOUR GARAGE
Car dealers will do just about anything to get you to buy a car from them... but offering free shotguns is certainly a new one! A car dealer in Knoxville, Tennessee, is giving away a controversial gift when you buy a car. Greg "Lumpy" Lambert is giving away free vouchers for customers to buy a gun and a free water pistol for every child during his special offer. Naturally, the "Second Amendment" gun sale has its share of critics, but Greg argues that East Tennessee "is a sportsman's paradise" and that the guns -- 8 mm deer rifles -- are intended for hunters. He also notes that people not qualified to own guns, will not get the voucher. Meanwhile, gun control advocate Naomi Paiss blasts Advantage Auto sales gun promotion saying, "If it is possible to further lower the image of used car salesmen this guy has done it!"
INSPIRATIONAL INSPIRATION
Well, tomorrow is Halloween. Halloween is one of those days that has changed so much over the centuries that its hard to know exactly when and why it began in the first place. Im sure that no church father from centuries past would recognize All Hallows Eve if he saw it today. Ive always understood that the day itself, All Hallows Day (November 1st) is a Christian holiday as its just another name for All Saints Day. So why would the night before All Saints Day be so terrifying and evil? I dont think it is but the beliefs and practices from others have been brought into it, and thats where the problem is. I see nothing wrong with dressing in a costume and having a party but some areas of Halloween, like trick-or-treating, jack-o-lanterns, etc., do have their roots in the Druids. But I think theres a more important question here. Personally, I think trick-or-treating and jack-o-lanterns are fun. All of the original meaning is gone, and nobody goes house to house gathering food for the dead that just doesnt happen anymore. I think, rather than spending all of our time bashing a single day, we need to look inside. Just as Halloween has hardly any resemblance to its original form, we can do that to our own Christian walk as well. Paul warned us against turning our freedom in Christ into a license to sin. You, my brothers, were called to be set free. But do not use your freedom to indulge the sinful nature. Christ died to set us free but if we let that freedom twist into something else, we also distort Gods original design and become unrecognizable as His creation. Now THAT is scary. Whether you can recognize the origins of Halloween isnt near as important as whether others can recognize the origins of Christ in you.
DRIVE TIME DEVOTIONAL
Ive always felt a little sorry for Linus from the Peanuts comic strip. His belief in the Great Pumpkin was unshakeable. Every Halloween, while other boys and girls wee out gathering huge sacks of candy, he was sitting amount the pumpkins waiting for gifts from a being that would never come because it didnt exist. This time of year people believe in lots of things that will never appear. Flying witches, vampires, walking mummies theyre all part of the commercialism that surrounds Halloween. There is a danger though in rejecting the symbols of Halloween, one might also be tempted to reject the reality of the devil as well. Satan, a pathological liar, perpetrator of evil, and avowed enemy of God IS REAL. And so are his demons. According to the Bible, they are nothing to fool with, and they can do great spiritual harm to the unsuspecting person. But Jesus overcame Satan when He died on the cross. When we take our stand against him in the name of Jesus Christ, Satan runs away. Great Pumpkin? No such thing. Ghouls and ghosts? No way. Satan and demons? Absolutely. But in Christ we have One who in all ways is greater and more powerful than the devil and his cohorts.
LEFTOVERS
SWEET CARPET
Bring together carpet and candy and you could have something that sells for millions of dollars!
Candy is pretty expensive nowadays... but can you imagine paying $2,000 per pound?!? A "carpet" made from 325 pounds of blue cellophane-wrapped candy sold for $666,000 at a Christie's auction. It was actually a conceptual piece of art, created by Felix Gonzalez-Torres. It was purchased by an anonymous bidder which got the candy-carpet at a pretty good price, considering it was estimated to go for as much as $8.5 million. ***MARLAR: So if you intentionally place candy in the carpet its called art, but if you drop candy in the carpet accidentally you get yelled at by your wife. Figures.
LIFE... LIVE IT
HALLOWEEN: IT'S ALL ABOUT THE CANDY!When it comes to candy, Halloween smokes Easter, Valentine's Day and Mother's Day. According to the National Confectioners Association, more sweets are sold in the weeks leading up to the Halloween than any other time of year. In 2005, Americans polished off $2.1 billion in Halloween candy! The top five Halloween candies based on 2005 sales, according to the National Confectioners Association:
Reese's Peanut Butter Cups
Snickers
Hershey's
M&M's
Kit Kat
GRANDPA LOVED CANDY, TOOAbout 65 percent of American candy brands have been around for more than 50 years. The oldest Halloween treat is candy corn, which has been filling trick-or-treat bags since the 1880s. Here are some "golden oldies" still making kids smile:
Tootsie Rolls, 1896
Hershey Bars, 1900
Milky Way Bar, 1923
Reese's Peanut Butter Cups, 1928
Snickers, 1930
Starburst Fruit Chews, 1960
Skittles, 1981
JUST FOR FUN
ICE CREAM LEGALITIES
A nine-year-old takes on the legal system and wins just so he can have some ice cream!
If you want something bad enough, you need to work for it. Isn't that what our parents always told us? Well that's exactly what nine-year-old Josh Lipshaw decided to do. He was upset that it was against the law for ice-cream vans to come through his neighborhood, so he decided to do a little legal work to remedy the problem. And now, ice cream vans will take to the roads of a Detroit suburb for the first time in 50 years thanks to a nine-year-old boy. Josh collected 165 names for a petition and wrote a letter to the township's officials urging them to overturn the ban. The rule has now been scrapped. The Board of Trustees voted unanimously to repeal the Michigan township's ban on "frozen confection vendors" after hearing from Josh. At an earlier meeting, Josh told them: "This is an old law, so I think you should look at it again. I bet many of you enjoyed ice cream trucks when you were kids." And after their decision to allow vans again, he drew applause from 20 children in the audience when he said: "I want to thank the township board for listening to a nine-year-old and his friends. You took us seriously and not everybody would do that." ***MARLAR: I know the feeling, Josh. I'm 40 years old and people won't listen to me either!

A m an in Turkey managed to propose to thousands of women at once! Women in Anakara, Turkey were showered with wedding proposals when a lonely soldier dropped 100,000 leaflets proposing marriage. Unfortunately for the single women, the proposals were meant for only one special woman. The serviceman had met the unidentified young lady in an Internet chat room and was looking for a unique way to propose to her. The airborne proposals, which read: "Will you lighten my darkness? Tell me you will marry me", were accompanied by 5,000 roses and bags of confetti. It is not known whether she said "yes" or "no", but the prospective groom's bank account is now around $15,000 lighter after paying for his unconventional proposal.
TOTALLY OUTRAGEOUS!

OTHER STUFF I WANT TO CRAM INTO TODAYS PREP
Open source has forever changed the way we create and do business in the Information Age. Now, it's also changing the world of Bible translation. According to Mission Network News, This month, Wycliffe Associates team finished the Unlocked Literal Bible an open-licensed version of the Bible. They say Putting Gods Word out on the public domain under Creative Commons licensing overcomes a lot of the behind the scenes copyright and royalty fee challenges. ***Which makes senseI mean, does anyone else find it odd that the Bible could command a copyright or royalty fees?

An Elderly nurse survived a terrorist attack by screaming the name of Jesus. According to Charisma News, When Palestinian terrorists hijacked the bus the nurse was on, she knew only the name of Jesus would save her. She says "The man in front of me began with a knife stabbing into me." I cried constantly in Dutch: 'Lord Jesus, Lord Jesus! Help me, help me." When she did this, she said her attacker "ran away to the back of the bus." The 78-year-old Dutch nurse is now in stable condition in an Israeli hospital as she recovers from multiple stab wounds, including a punctured lung.

Weddings should be a celebration. But for girls in India, its nearly a death sentence. According to Mission Network News, the girls are beaten and abused. The most devastating act of abuse is known as bride burning, or dowry death. If grooms or in-laws are not satisfied with the dowry paid for the bride, they set an example by setting her on fire. Every day, there are an estimated 22 cases. Meanwhile, Mission India partners are stepping in to restore hope, give love, and share the good news of Christ with many such women through programs like Adult Literacy Courses. Another organization, Church Planters, is teaching families in India that both men and women are created in Gods image and are deeply loved by Him.

THE WAY WE WORK
(Updated as it comes available. HYPERLINK "http://markelfstrand.blogspot.com/" The Way WE Work is written by Mark Elfstrand from 1160Hope.com in Chicago.)
HYPERLINK "http://markelfstrand.blogspot.com/2015/10/security-checkup.html" Security Checkup
(*Im traveling this week, so this blogs topic may look slightly familiar.)In recent days, weve learned of another invasion of privacy with the hacking of two well known persons email accounts. Regrettably, these two people have a lot to do with our nations security! Im speaking of the personal accounts of CIA Director John Brennan and Department of Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson.The HYPERLINK "http://nypost.com/2015/10/18/stoner-high-school-student-says-he-hacked-the-cia/" New York Postrevealed it was a teenager who was the cultprit. And what did he get? How about access to documents such as Social Security numbers for more than 12 US intelligence officials. This came from Brennans account. The hacker claims his tapping into Brennans AOL information contained the CIA directors own application for top security clearance a trove of nearly 50 pages of who knows what. Well, now the hacker does. There appears to be a pro-Palestinian motivation behind the hacker. He claims to be non-Muslim but disapproved of US policy. He threatened more action if his views of needed change arent met. Even government is becoming a hackers paradise.But its everywhere. Its been reported that the real problem is that so many breaches occur in the first place. Credit and debit card fraud has nearly quadrupled in past decade. Staying a step ahead of thieves is hard work.Security breaches in our modern age put our finances, medical history, and loads of personal information up for grabs. HYPERLINK "http://www.nytimes.com/2013/12/29/business/reading-your-palm-for-securitys-sake.html?nl=todaysheadlines&adxnnl=1&emc=edit_th_20131229&adxnnlx=1388315522-YdqRNabLGR4YUhWDLrcqYg" A news story several months back in the New York Times offered an eerie glimpse into new ways of enhancing personal security. A bank in Britain now provides voice analyzation for added security to high net worth individuals. In Japan, some ATMs scan vein patterns in a persons palm before money is released. Fingerprint sensors on computers and smartphones are becoming more common.As we know, pets are now commonly sold and adopted with microchips to reveal their identity in the event they are lost or stolen. Radio Frequency identification tags (RFID) are being encouraged in various parts of the globe for humans. Proponents say these devices embedded under peoples skin could help curb identity theft, improve medical care, and even help identify disaster victims.It would seem obvious to most of us that more people are willing to sacrifice personal privacy for this sense of personal security. Cameras, for example, are everywhere. We are monitored at every turn. So what is a person to do? Tough decisions may be ahead. How far will people go to give themselves these earthly personal protections? Many also believe that all of this activity is connected to events leading to what are called the end times. One of the most difficult instructions Jesus gave his followers had to do with reading the signs of the times. Note these words of his But in those days, after that tribulation, the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light, and the stars will be falling from heaven, and the powers in the heavens will be shaken. And then they will see the Son of Man coming in clouds with great power and glory. (Mark 13:24-26) So are you ready?Oddly, it seems the vast majority of people on our planet are more concerned with personal security than eternal security. Were more worried about a credit or email account breach than a spiritual breach in our own lives. The kind that could rob us of eternal reward.I suggest you take the best precaution possible regarding your greatest asset: YOU! Protect yourself with a living trust. Make a day by day decision to abide in Him. Put your faith in Jesus.There is no more sound investment strategy. And it never needs an upgrade.Thats The Way WE Work.
