Give A Penny, Get A Penny
Give A Penny, Get A Penny
Most gas stations in the South have little change dishes by the register. If you’re paying for a transaction and need an extra penny or two, you simply take one from the dish. People then reciprocate this good turn by dropping a few coins in the dish from time to time, thereby creating a community bank of sorts, based on goodwill.
So in that spirit, this is Southern Plate’s “Give A Penny, Get A Penny” page.” I dearly love positive quotes and am always scouring the web for more so I thought this would be a great place to compile all of those. I’ll post mine, you post yours, and we can all “Give A Penny” when we have one and come back to “Get A Penny” when we need one.
I’ll also draw from these quotes to include at the bottom of my posts and emails that I send out to Southern Plate readers and be sure to credit the person who provided it, so include a link to your blog if you have one.
I would consider it a personal favor if you’d take the time to share a quote of motivation or positivity in the comments section below. Quote yourself, your Mama, someone famous, or our best friend “Anonymous”, it doesn’t matter, long as you drop your penny and then come back on one of those days when you feel like you might need one yourself.
Gratefully,
Christy
Ask, seek,find
Matthew 7;7,8
Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: For everyone that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh finndeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.
Don’t look back because when you do you can’t look forward.
I needed to hear this today! I’ll be remembering this one.
I have this posted on my office wall and it reminds me to ALWAYS be thankful. I ask my two sons to remember this when they pray. I hope you enjoy it!
What if . . . God blessed you today with only the things you thanked him for yesterday?

” ITS NOT HARD TO MEET EXPENCES,
THEY’RE EVERYWHERE”.
Found this in a Burger Shop recently and bought this for my office.
I thought, “How appropriate it was”.
Faith is better than fear.
