[JOYnet] The Pearly Gate
The Pearly Gate A man dies and goes to heaven. Of course, St. Peter meets him at the pearly gates. St. Peter says, Here's how it works. You need 100 points to make it into heaven. You tell me all the good things you've done, and I give you a certain number of points for each item, depending on how good it was. When you reach 100 points, you get in. Okay, the man says, I was married to the same woman for 50 years and never cheated on her, even in my heart. That's wonderful, says St. Peter, that's worth three points! Three points? he says. Well, I attended church all my life and supported its ministry with my tithe and service. Terrific! says St. Peter, that's certainly worth a point. One point? Golly. How about this; I started a soup kitchen in my city and worked in a shelter for homeless veterans. Fantastic, that's good for two more points, he says. TWO POINTS!! the man cries, At this rate the only way I'll get into heaven is by the grace of God! Come on in! Yahoo! Mail Plus - Powerful. Affordable.

[JOYnet] lets be like this
hi everyone,please read this long mail I hope it touches us in some way. Praise God. well todays sermon too was lovely, preached at the novena of St.Francis Xavier . the gospel was of the good samaritan .the sermon began like this: there was a land lord who had a lovely garden with different trees in it. some were big, some strong, some with lovely flowers others with fruits ,but in one corner there was a small bamboo shoot. the land lord loved all his trees equally, he used to water them, put fertelizers etc and take good care of his trees. he specially liked this small bamboo shoot and took good care of it ,it soon grew into a lovely tall strong bamboo high above the rest of the trees. the land lord used to come into his garden daily and this bamboo used to sway and bow down to the land lord who was pleased with the bamboo. But one day the land lord came to this bamboo, who had every thing he needed,and said: i need to cut u down. the bamboo was very sad when he heard this and he said to his master not to cut him. the landlord replied :but then you are of no use to me if I dont cut you down.upon hearing this the bamboo bent down to be cut. now the master said: after cutting you I need to trim all your rough branches. the bamboo was very sad when he heard this and he said to his master not to cut his branches. the landlord replied :but then you are of no use to me if I dont cut your branches.upon hearing this the bamboo bent down to be cut. now the master said: after cutting you I need to trim all you rough branches and split you in half.the bamboo was very sad when he heard this and he said to his master not to cut him in half. the landlord replied :but then you are of no use to me if I dont cut you in half.upon hearing this the bamboo bent down to be cut. the land lord cut the bamboo, trimed the branches and split it in two. he then put it into a nearby stream and used the split bamboo as a channel to water his nearby field. through this bamboo the fields were well watered and the landlord had a plentiful harvest. now some times we are like this bamboo, God calls us nourishes us allows us to grow all is well when we are in the lords garden.after sometime God too wants to cut us, trim us, split us into two. lets be like this bamboo bow down to his will. you'll never know the fields God wants us to water. let us pray to God to melt us, mould us, fill us and use us.make it our daily prayer.

Re: [JOYnet] Do U Know [DUK]
I think one reason is we have so many strikes in Kerala so that people are scared to start a new industry there.The other reason that with the most education we are still backward in our thinking.We are not willing to take up non prestigious jobs in kerala but will do so outside of kerala.We also become more progressive thinking when we leave Kerala.What is your opinion?

[JOYnet] Jesus is not 'just' Great
Dear All, Yesterday I had a very good experience that I want to share with you. There was the usual Friday JY gathering here in Abu Dhabi and the Spiritual Input was regarding the Christian sufferings. The class was so good that each one of us realized the need for the sufferings of every Christian. I personally decided to suffer for Christ. After the gathering, I had to go to Jabel Dhana, around 260 Km from Abu Dhabi where I work. I didnt get any direct Taxi to my place and hence I went on a cab that is up to Al Ruwais. I thought that I would be getting some lift from there to get down at Highway and can walk around 7~8 Km in the night to my place. I was so glad to take it as a suffering and to offer it for Jesus. In my journey, I met a person named Husain (a malayalee Muslim) who was seated next to me. (Here, for long distances, all are traveling in shared Taxi). I started chat with him. I gave him KERYGMA (not an eatable) The INITIAL GOSPEL (WORD) PROCLAMATION. I told him about Jesus, the necessity of his death to save the entire world including Husain and me and so. Throughout the conversation he listened to me carefully. At the end he allowed me to pray for him. I was filled with joy and thanked God for using me as his instrument for his Kingdom. I got down at Ruwais and for my surprise, immediately I got a lift up to the highway. Again I glorify God for not keeping me to wait for a long time. I got down at the highway and started walking to my place. I couldnt control my enthusiasm for allowing me to proclaim his words and to suffer for him and hence I started singing THE LORD IS SO GOOD .. SO GOOD TO ME aloud. When I walked a little, a vehicle came and stopped at me and offered that he can drop me at my place. I got in and reached my room at around 11.00 PM. I couldnt control my tears while thanking Jesus for his greater care for me. Jesus is not just GREAT but I dont know how to express it.

[JOYnet] have a nice day
1 - First Important Lesson : All are significant During my second month of college, our professor gave us a pop quiz. I was a conscientious student and had breezed through the questions, until I read the last one: What is the first name of the woman who cleans the school? Surely this was some kind of joke. I had seen the cleaning woman several times. She was tall, dark-haired and in her 50s, but how would I know her name? I handed in my paper, leaving the last question blank. Just before class ended, one student asked if the last question would count toward our quiz grade. Absolutely, said the professor. In your careers, you will meet many people. All are significant. They deserve your attention and care, even if all you do is smile and say 'hello'. I've never forgotten that lesson. I also learned her name was Dorothy. 2 - Second Important Lesson - Pickup in! the Rain One night, a! t 11:30 PM, an older African American woman ! was standing on the side of an Alabama highway trying to endure a lashing rain storm. Her car had broken down and she desperately needed a ride. Soaking wet, she decided to flag down the next car. A young white man stopped to help her, generally unheard of in those conflict-filled 1960s. The man took her to safety, helped her get assistance and put her into a taxicab. She seemed to be in a big hurry, but wrote down his address and thanked him. Seven days went by and a knock came on the man's door. To his surprise, a giant console color TV was delivered to his home. A special note was attached. It read: Thank you so much for assisting me on the highway the other night. The rain drenched not only my clothes, but also my spirits. Then you came along. Because of you, I was able to make it to my dying husband's bedside just before he passed away.! God bless you for helping me! and unselfishly serving other! s. Sincerely, Mrs. Nat King Cole. 3 - Third Important Lesson : Always remember those who serve you. In the days when an ice cream sundae cost much less, a 10 year old boy entered a hotel coffee shop and sat at a table. A waitress put a glass of water in front of him. How much is an ice cream sundae? he asked Fifty cents, replied the waitress. The little boy pulled his hand out of his pocket and studied the coins in it. Well, how much is a plain dish of ice cream? he inquired. By now more people were waiting for a table and the waitress was growing impatient. Thirty-five cents, she brusquely replied. The little boy again counted his coins. I'll have the plain ice cream, he said. The waitress brought the ice cream, put the bill on the table and walked away. The boy finished the ice cream, paid the cashier and left. When t! he waitress ca! me back, she began to cry as she wiped down the table. There, placed neatly beside the empty dish, were two nick! els and five pennies. You see, he couldn't have the sundae, because he had to have enough left to leave her a tip. 4 - Fourth Important Lesson - The Obstacle in Our Path In ancient times, a King had a boulder placed on a the middle of the road and hid himself to see if anyone would remove the huge rock. Some of the king's wealthiest merchants and courtiers came by and simply walked around it. Many loudly blamed the king for not keeping the roads clear, but none did anything about getting the stone out of the way. Then a peasant came along carrying a load of vegetables. Upon approaching the boulder, the peasant laid down his burden and tried to move the stone to the side of the road. After much pushing and straining, he finally succeeded. After the peasant pi! cked up his load ! of vegetables, he noticed a purse lying in the road where the boulder had been. The purse ! contained many ! gold coins and a note from the king indicating that the gold was for the person who removed the boulder from the roadway. The peasant learned what many of us never understand. Every obstacle presents an opportunity to improve our condition. 5 - Fifth Important Lesson - Giving When it Counts Many years ago, when I worked as a volunteer at a hospital, I got to know a little girl named Liz who was suffering from a rare and serious disease. Her only chance of recovery appeared to be a blood transfusion from her 5-year old brother, who had miraculously survived the same disease and had developed the antibodies needed to combat the illness. The doctor explained the situation to her little brother, and asked the little boy if he would be willing to give his blood to his! sister. I saw him hesitate for only a moment before taking a deep breath and saying, Yes, I'll do it if it will save her. As the transfusion progressed, he lay in bed next to his! sister and smiled, as we all did, seeing the color returning to her cheek. Then his face grew pale and his smile faded. He looked up at The doctor and asked with a trembling voice, Will I start to die right away? Being young, the little boy had misunderstood the doctor; he thought
