Charles Stanley on “Anger and Forgiveness – I specialized on the former and struggled with the latter. Only through the Grace of God have I seen how much time I wasted on the former and needed the latter.

RECALL NOTICE:
The Maker of all human beings (GOD) is recalling all units manufactured, regardless of make or year, due to a serious defect in the primary and central component of the heart.
This is due to a malfunction in the original prototype units code named Adam and Eve, resulting in the reproduction of the same defect in all subsequent units. This defect has been technically termed “Sub-sequential Internal Non-Morality,” or more commonly known as S.I.N., as it is primarily expressed.
Some of the symptoms include:
1. Loss of direction
2. Foul vocal emissions
3. Amnesia of origin
4. Lack of peace and joy
5. Selfish or violent behavior
6. Depression or confusion in the mental component
7. Fearfulness
8. Idolatry
9. Rebellion
The Manufacturer, who is neither liable nor at fault for this defect, is providing factory-authorized repair and service free of charge to correct this defect.
The Repair Technician, JESUS, has most generously offered to bear the entire burden of the staggering cost of these repairs. There is no additional fee required.
The number to call for repair in all areas is: P-R-A-Y-E-R.
Once connected, please upload
your burden of SIN through the REPENTANCE procedure. Next, download ATONEMENT from the Repair Technician, Jesus, into the heart component.
No matter how big or small the SIN defect is, Jesus will replace it with:
1.. Love
2. Joy
3. Peace
4. Patience
5. Kindness
6. Goodness
7. Faithfulness
8. Gentleness
9. Self control
Please see the operating manual, the B.I.B.L.E. (Believers’ Instructions Before Leaving Earth) for further details on the use of these fixes.
WARNING: Continuing to operate the human being unit without correction voids any manufacturer warranties, exposing the unit to dangers and problems too numerous to list and will result in the human unit being permanently impounded. For free emergency service, call on Jesus.
DANGER: The human being units not responding to this recall action will have to be scrapped in the furnace. The SIN defect will not be permitted to enter Heaven so as to prevent contamination of that facility. Thank you for your attention!
- GOD
P.S. Please assist where possible by notifying others of this important recall notice, and you may contact the Father any time by ‘Knee mail’.
Sorry bloggers – I guess I got up before Peter this morning as I posted something on his post titled THINGS about Amazing Grace – and keeping to our motto of posting according to the theme….I should have posted it here….so here goes. Peter/George if you are reading this feel free to just remove my THINGS blog.

Amazing Grace – In times like these I like to be reminded of where I believe my fate really lies and find this music uplifting. By the caption I put on the top here I have given you fair warning what this will be about. The best to all!

Dear Mr. Grandich
It’s taken me several attempts to pen this post. Its never been easy for me to express myself. Heartache and suffering has never left me for any real length of time.
I first came to this blog at the recommendation of a friend. I must admit at first I thought it was too good to be true. Superb advice for free? What’s this guy’s angle? I then realized you make your living by representing some companies and because you did this openly and honestly, I began to make this blog a part of my daily life.
If we stop there it would be enough. But you began to pull on my heart and a lot of the rage that remained in me. I began to dive into your past writings about your own foul ups and struggles with depression. Your Sunday posts became as important as your daily ones.
A couple of weeks ago, I went back to church after 20+ years. My confession last almost two hours and I met a wonderful priest. I didn’t think there were any left.
Today I watched your video of Charles Stanley and I’ve been balling ever since. Through you,God has worked a miracle. I haven’t felt this good in decades.
God bless you Mr. Grandich. I live thousands of miles from you but I pray some day I can shake your hand.
Tom, thank you so much for sharing your story. That took a lot of courage and I found it very inspirational. I know you have suffered but I must admit that your post made me smile…..not because of your suffering but because of your hope. Best regards, susan
Touche Tom!
You don’t know how much we appreciate your work, Peter. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
Bless you Peter!
Thank you, Peter.
God bless you and keep you well.
Warmly,
Martin Feldman
Just FYI for everyone who is interested in getting Charles Stanley videos. You can register it with your ITunes to the show and you get weekly video updates. The one Peter just put on this blog is the latest one.
methinks Peter might be too choked up by Tom to respond … great joy is earned by those who give.

Thankyou Tom for your confession- you have instantly made the world a better place. Also thanks to Peter for your work !! God Bless you both!!Patrick
Seeing how bad the New York Giants are doing Peter is likely getting a good test of his anger management right about now
Peter, that is a very unique way of presenting the gospel. I am going to copy that. Also Tom, the Holy Spirit was working in your heart to accept the advice to read the blog. Just one commnent, Jesus said, Come unto me all you who are weary and heavy laden and I will give you rest. Only Jesus can forgive our sins, not a priest.
At first I was troubled with Peter’s religious comments. However, I have come to fully appreciate them even though I’m not Christian.It’s become what I think of the man behind the remarks that matters. In a world of sleaze, Peter has demonstrated beyond any reasonable doubt an integrity second to none. Who knows, if this keeps up I might read that Bible thing.
To Sam: Once you open the Bible you may begin to see that even Peter does not have the integrity you wish to see. We are all sinful! Integrity by its strict definition is unattainable by us. God sent the Laws of Moses to His people. His people failed time and time again. I think the Bible makes it clear that the law was never meant to be a guide to obtain integrity. Rather the law was sent to make us aware of our lack of integrity. Peter goes out of his way to make that clear to his readers – he repeattedly admits he still makes mistakes. (However, perhaps you are referring to his consistent humility – in that he has integrity). The only integrity that us humans can have is as a result of God’s grace to us. This grace is found in Christ Jesus. That Christ places us in right standing with God REGARDLESS of our past, is incredible. This is what is so amazing about Grace!
(Note: the present tense of the verb ‘places’ – this implies we are always a work in progress. This should not be a reason to be feel burdened, rather let it be more evidence of God’s grace. For He NEVER gives up on His children).
Susan,thank you for that rendition of Amazing Grace.I have thanked Peter in the past for including some beautiful versions of Amazing Grace.
Two years ago my Mother past away and Amazing Grace was her favorite Hymn at mass. Whenever I hear it, it makes me pause and reflect on what a wonderful Mother she was, and in this hurried life of ours reflection does not happen enough.
I to, often wonder why Peter puts so much into this blog when you read some of the comments throughout the week, but when you see the comments like today on “Sunday Thoughts” you know exactly why he does.
You have to love Sunday’s
It is relief I feel when I am reminded that God and His Son, Jesus, has someone help me remember Who my Creator is.
