The Story:
Wacky Warning Labels
For the last 11 years, an anti-lawsuit group from Michigan has held "The Wacky Warning Label Contest" to show the effects of lawsuits on warning labels. A warning sticker on a small tractor that reads "Danger: Avoid Death" took home the top prize in 2007. Kevin Soave, a resident of the Detroit suburb Farmington Hills, submitted the winning label. Carrianne, Jacob, and Robby Turin of Greensburg, Pennsylvania, won second place—and a $250 prize—for a label they found on an iron-on T-shirt transfer that warns: "Do not iron while wearing shirt." Richard Goodnow of Lancaster, Masschusetts, earned the $100 third-place prize for a label on a baby stroller that featured a small storage pouch that warns: "Do not put child in bag."

The Word:
Psalm 119:140(NLT)
140 Your promises have been thoroughly tested;
that is why I love them so much.
Hosea 10:4(NCV)
4 They make many false promises
and agreements which they don't keep.
So people sue each other in court;
they are like poisonous weeds growing in a plowed field.
The Thought:
The warnings and the promises God gives us will never fail. They are warnings that we need to listen to and promises that we need to trust.
ACTS:
Adoration: Adore God for His promises.
Confession: Do you take God’s warnings serious?
Thanksgiving: Thank God for always keeping His promise to you.
Supplication: Give God your concerns.
