About Me

"Too often we underestimate the power of a touch,
a smile, a kind word, a listening ear,
an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring,
all of which have the potential to turn a life around."

My Purpose and Goal for having a page on MYSPACE, is to reach every Man, Woman, Boy, and Girl on the Myspace network, so they will have read something about our Lord and Savior, Jesus the Christ, the life he lived, his Death, Burial, and Resurrection.
**NOTE: Don't judge me by the pictures of the people that you see in my friends column. The Bible says to spread the word. And if someone ask to be added, so be it. When they read God's word, I know that they'll be touched in one way or another. If I add them, then maybe their friends will find the page and be touched as well.
I am still a work in progress, The Potter is not through with me yet!! I still have alot of rough edges!!
Oh Lord thy God, Have your way on this page which is Inspired by your Holy Spirit.
"Let everything that has breath, Praise ye the Lord!!!!!"
A Prayer for the Children!!!
Our God and our Lord. I come unto you right now praying for the children throughout the land. Father I pray that you anoint their lives to resist the temptation of the Devil. Lord I pray that you would teach the children to recognize and resist the temptations of the Devil from thing such as Drugs, Loneliness, Depression, Gangs, the Internet, and Sex.
Lord I know that you are all mighty, and all knowing, so I ask that you would be a fence all around our children, and everyone that proclaims your name. Let them know that you Love them more than anyone they'll ever know. And if they would just turn to you in their time of need you will answer their prayers. Father God I ask all of these things in the name of Jesus. Amen
AMAZING STORY
The Awesomeness of God!!!!!
In chemistry, He turned water to wine.
In biology, He was born without the normal conception;
In physics, He disapproved the law of gravity when He ascended into heaven;
In economics, He disapproved the law of diminishing return by feeding 5000 men with two fishes & 5 loaves of bread;
In medicine, He cured the sick and the blind without administering a single dose of drugs,
In history, He is the beginning and the end;
In government, He said that he shall be called Wonderful Counselor, Prince of Peace;
In religion, He said no one comes to the Father except through him; So... Who is He? He is Jesus!
Join me and let's celebrate him; He is worthy.
The eyes beholding this message shall not behold evil, the hand that will send this message to everybody shall not labor in vain, and the mouth saying amen to this prayer shall smile forever.
Remain in God and seek his face always. Amen! In God I've found everything!
Who is Jesus?
The Greatest Man in History Jesus had no servants, yet they called Him Master.
Had no degree, yet they called Him Teacher.
Had no medicines, yet they called Him Healer.
He had no army, yet kings feared Him.
He won no military battles, yet He conquered the world.
He committed no crime, yet they crucified Him.
He was buried in a tomb, yet He lives today.
I feel honored to serve such a Leader who loves us! If you believe in God the Father and in Jesus Christ the Son, tell all the people you come in contact with.
If you ignore this task, just remember that Jesus said... "If you deny me before man, I will deny you before my Father in Heaven
Christians
By Maya Angelo
When I say... "I am a Christian" I'm not shouting "I'm clean livin'." I'm whispering "I was lost, Now I'm found and forgiven."
When I say... "I am a Christian" I don't speak of this with pride. I'm confessing that I stumble and need Christ to be my guide.
When I say... "I am a Christian" I'm not trying to be strong. I'm professing that I'm weak And need His strength to carry on.
When I say... "I am a Christian" I'm not bragging of success. I'm admitting I have failed And need God to clean my mess.
When I say... "I am a Christian" I'm not claiming to be perfect, My flaws are far too visible But, God believes I am worth it.
When I say... "I am a Christian" I still feel the sting of pain. I have my share of heartaches So I call upon His name.
When I say... "I am a Christian" I'm not holier than thou, I'm just a simple sinner Who received God's good grace, somehow!
Share this with somebody who already has this understanding, as reinforcement. But more importantly, share this with those who do not have a clear understanding of what it means to be a Christian, so that the myth that Christians think they are "perfect" or "better than others" can be dispelled.


God Has Kept Me Here For A Reason
Repeat after me: God has kept me here for a reason.
I survived because He has a plan for me.
All my bad relationships, the addictions, the consequences, the bad credit, the repossessions, the death of my loved ones, the back stabbing from my friends, the negative thoughts, or the lack of support; I made it because I am blessed!
I release and let go of all past hurts, misunderstandings and grudges because I am abundantly blessed!
I recognize them as the illusions they are, and sent from the enemy to kill my spirit, steal my joy, and destroy my faith;
For God is all there is. All else is a lie!
Now give yourself a hug, wipe your tears away and walk in victory!!!!!!!!
I love you, but more appropriately God loves you BEST!
Be blessed and know that you are at one with THE SPIRIT OF THE LIVING GOD!
And may the Lord keep watch between you and me when we are away from each other. Genesis 31:49. Amen!
Now since you are a true child of God, you know that with every blessing, a blessing is required!
So be a blessing to another, by passing this on.
Be Blessed "The Will of GOD will never take you where the GRACE of GOD will not protect you.
THE BLOOD
One night in a church service a young woman felt the tug of God at her heart.
She responded to God's call and accepted Jesus as her Lord and Savior.
The young woman had a very rough past, involving alcohol, drugs, and prostitution.
But, the change in her was evident. As time went on she became a faithful member of the church.
She eventually became involved in the ministry, teaching young children.
It was not very long until this faithful young woman had caught the eye and heart of the pastor's son.
The relationship grew and they began to make wedding plans.
This is when the problems began.
You see, about one half of the church did not think that a woman with a past such as hers was suitable for a pastor's son.
The church began to argue and fight about the matter.
So they decided to have a meeting.
As the people made their arguments and tensions increased, the meeting was getting completely out of hand
The young woman became very upset about all the things being brought up about her past.
As she began to cry the pastor's son stood to speak.
He could not bear the pain it was causing his wife to be.
He began to speak and his statement was this:
"My fiancee's past is not what is on trial here.
What you are questioning is the ability of the blood of Jesus to wash away sin.
Today you have put the blood of Jesus on trial. So, does it wash away sin or not?"
The whole church began to weep as they realized that they had been slandering the blood of the Lord Jesus Christ.
Too often, even as Christians, we bring up the past and use it as a weapon against our brothers and sisters.
Forgiveness is a very foundational part of the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ.
If the blood of Jesus does not cleanse the other person completely then it cannot cleanse us completely.
If that is the case, then we are all in a lot of trouble.
What can wash away my sins?
Nothing but the blood of Jesus! End of case!!!!
"Cast thy burden upon the Lord, and he shall sustain thee he shall ever suffer the righteous to be moved."
Psalm 55:23
This prayer is powerful and prayer is one of the best gifts we receive.
There is no cost but a lot of rewards, let's continue to pray for one another.
Here is the prayer:
"Father, I ask you to bless my friends, relatives and email buddies reading this right now.
Show them a new revelation of your love and power.
Holy Spirit, I ask you to minister to their spirit at this very moment.
Where there is pain, give them your peace and mercy. Where there is self doubt, release a renewed confidence through your grace.
In Jesus' precious name.
Amen
All you have to do is just Believe in The Death, Burial, & Resurection of our Lord and Savior Jesus The Christ!!
Romans 10:9-13 (9)Confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, & believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, Thou shalt be saved. etc.
"God, I realize I need a Savior. I confess that I have sinned and I know that my sin will keep me out of heaven. I realize there is not one single thing I can do to earn my way into Your heaven. Right now I am placing all, 100 percent of my trust, in Christ’s death on the cross and resurrection from the dead as payment for my sin. I now accept you as my Lord and Savior, and I commit my life to you. Thank you for forgiving me and filling me with your Holy Spirit."

Today I wish a day of unexpected miracles...

A fresh pot of coffee you didn't have to make yourself.

An unexpected phone call from an old friend.

Green stoplights on your way to work or shop.

I wish you a day of little things to rejoice in...

The fastest line at the grocery store.

A good sing along song on the radio.

Your keys right where you look.

I wish you a day of happiness and perfection-little bite-size pieces of perfection that give you the funny feeling that the Lord is smiling on you, holding you so gently because you are someone special and rare.

I wish You a day of Peace, Happiness and Joy.

They say it takes a minute to find a special person, an hour to appreciate them, a day to love them, but then an entire life to forget them.

A Deck of Cards!!!!

A young soldier was in his bunkhouse all alone one Sunday morning over in Afghanistan. It was quiet that day, the guns and the mortars, and land mines for some reason hadn't made a noise.

The young soldier knew it was Sunday, the holiest day of the week. As he was sitting there, he got out an old deck of cards and laid them out across his bunk.

Just then an army sergeant came in and said, "Why aren't you with the rest of the platoon?"

The soldier replied, "I thought I would stay behind and spend some time with the Lord."

The sergeant said, "Looks like you're going to play cards."

The soldier said, "No sir, you see, since we are not allowed to have Bibles or other spiritual books in this country, I've decided to talk to the Lord by studying this deck of cards."

"You see the Ace, Sergeant, it reminds that there is only one God.

The Two represents the two parts of the Bible, Old and New Testaments.

The Three represents the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost.

The Four stands for the Four Apostles: Matthew, Mark, Luke and John.

The Five is for the five virgins that were ten but only five of them were glorified.

The Six is for the six days it took God to create the Heavens and Earth.

The Seven is for the day God rested after working the six days.

The Eight is for the family of Noah and his wife, their three sons and their wives, in which God saved the eight people from the flood that destroyed the earth for the first time.

The Nine is for the lepers that Jesus cleansed of leprosy. He cleansed ten but nine never thanked Him.

The Ten represents the Ten Commandments that God handed down to Moses on tablets made of stone.

The Jack is a reminder of Satan. One of God's first angels, but he got kicked out of heaven for his sly and wicked ways and is now the joker of eternal hell.

The Queen stands for the Virgin Mary.

The King stands for Jesus, for he is the King of all kings.

When I count the dots on all the cards, I come up with 365 total, one for every day of the year.

There are a total of 52 cards in a deck, each is a week, 52 weeks in a year.

The four suits represents the four seasons: Spring, Summer, Fall and Winter.

Each suit has thirteen cards, there are exactly thirteen weeks in a quarter.

So when I want to talk to God and thank Him, I just pull out this old deck of cards and they remind me of all that I have to be thankful for."

The sergeant just stood there and after a minute, with tears in his eyes and pain in his heart, he said, "Soldier, can I borrow that deck of cards?"

Originator Unknown

Please let this be a reminder and take time to pray for all of our soldiers who are being sent away, putting their lives on the line fighting for us.

Send this on so that we can have a multitude praying for our people and our country.

God Bless America!

Dear God, I'm so glad you pick my friends. Had I set out to cultivate the perfect group of friends, I would likely have omitted most of the people who have become very special to me.
Because of your sovereign plan, many friendships come out of unusual circumstances. What a blessing to know that you continue to work out your plan for each of us. Thank you for those special friends you have placed in my life at just the right time.
In the name of Jesus, the Christ, AMEN!

Proverbs:17:17 A friend loves you all the time.................... NIV

Have A Blessed Day!!!!!!!!!!!!!

********~THE COMPANY YOU KEEP~********

It Is Better To Be Alone, Than In the Wrong Company

Tell me who your best friends are, and I will tell you who you are.

If you run with wolves, you will learn how to howl.

But, if you associate with eagles, you will learn how to soar to great heights.

A mirror reflects a man’s face, but what he is really like is shown by the kind of friends he chooses.

The simple but true fact of life is that you become like those with whom you closely associate for the good and the bad.

The less you associate with some people, the more your life will improve.

Any time you tolerate mediocrity in others, it increases your mediocrity.

An important attribute in successful people is their impatience with negative thinking and negative acting people.

As you grow, your associates will change.

Some of your friends will not want you to go on.

They will want you to stay where they are.

Friends that don't help you climb will want you to crawl.

Your friends will stretch your vision or choke your dream.

Those that don't increase you will eventually decrease you.

Consider this:

Never receive counsel from unproductive people.

Never discuss your problems with someone incapable of contributing to the solution, because those who never succeed themselves are always first to tell you how.

Not everyone has a right to speak into your life. You are certain to get the worst of the bargain when you exchange ideas with the wrong person.

Don't follow anyone who's not going anywhere.

With some people you spend an evening: with others you invest it.

Be careful where you stop to inquire for directions along the road of life.

Wise is the person who fortifies his life with the right friendships.

Happy moments, Praise God

Difficult moments, Seek God

Quiet moments, Worship God

Painful moments, Trust God

Every moment, Thank God

DRINK, STEAL, SWEAR & LIE

(FOUR RULES TO LIVE BY)

I met this guy while I was in Albuquerque and he has a motto he lives by everyday.

He said listen carefully and live by these 4 rules:

Drink, Steal, Swear, & Lie.

I was shaking my head 'no', but he then told me to listen while he explained his four rules. So here they are:

1.. "Drink" from the "everlasting cup" every day.

2.. "Steal" a moment to help someone that is in worse shape than you are.

3.. "Swear" that you will be a better person today than yesterday.

4.. And last, but not least, when you "lie" down at night, thank God you live in America and have freedom.

I am not as good as I should be; I am not as good as I could be; but THANK GOD, I am better than I used to be.

THREE HEALING WORDS
There are many things that we can do to perk up and strengthen our interpersonal relationships. Yet the most effective involves the saying of just three words. When spoken or conveyed, these statements have the power to forge new friendships, deepen old ones and restore relationships that have cooled. The following three-word phrases can enrich every relationship.

I'LL BE THERE
If you have ever had to call a friend in the middle of the night, to take a sick child to hospital, or when your car has broken down some miles from home, you will know how good it feels to hear the phrase "I'll be there." Being there for another person is the greatest gift we can give. When we are truly present for other people, important things happen to them and us. We are renewed in love and friendship. We are restored emotionally and spiritually. Being there is at the very core of civility.

I MISS YOU
Perhaps more marriages could be saved and strengthened if couples simply and sincerely said to each other "I miss you." This powerful affirmation tells partners they are wanted, needed, desired and loved. Consider how ecstatic you would feel, if you received an unexpected phone call from your spouse in the middle of your workday, just to say "I miss you."

I RESPECT YOU
Respect is another way of showing love. Respect conveys the feeling that another person is a true equal. If you talk to your children as if they were adults you will strengthen the bonds and become close friends. This applies to all interpersonal relationships.

MAYBE YOUR RIGHT
This phrase is highly effective in diffusing an argument and restoring frayed emotions. The flip side to "maybe your right" is the humility of admitting, "maybe I'm wrong". Let's face it. When you have a heated argument with someone, all you do is cement the other person's point of view. They, or you, will not change their stance and you run the risk of seriously damaging the relationship between you. Saying "maybe you're right" can open the door to further explore the subject, in which you may then have the opportunity to get your view across in a more rational manner.

PLEASE FORGIVE ME.
Many broken relationships could be restored and healed if people would admit their mistakes and ask for forgiveness. All of us are vulnerable to faults, foibles and failures. A man should never be ashamed to own up that he has been in the wrong, which is saying, in other words, that he is wiser today than he was yesterday.

I THANK YOU.
Gratitude is an exquisite form of courtesy. People who enjoy the companionship of good, close friends are those who don't take daily courtesies for granted. They are quick to thank their friends for their many expressions of kindness. On the other hand, people whose circle of friends is severely constricted often do not have the attitude of gratitude.

COUNT ON ME.
A friend is one who walks in when others walk out. Loyalty is an essential ingredient for true friendship; it is the emotional glue that bonds people. Those that are rich in their relationships tend to be steady and true friends. When troubles come, a good friend is there indicating "you can count on me."

LET ME HELP.
The best of friends see a need and try to fill it. When they spot a hurt they do what they can to heal it. Without being asked, they pitch in and help.

I UNDERSTAND YOU.

People become closer and enjoy each other more if they feel the other person accepts and understands them. Letting your spouse know in so many little ways that you understand them, is one of the most powerful tools for healing your relationship. This applies to any relationship.

GO FOR IT.
We are all unique individuals. Don't try to get your friends to conform to your ideals. Support them in pursuing their interests, no matter how weird they seem to you. Everyone has dreams, dreams that are unique to that person only. Support and encourage your friends to follow their dreams. Tell them to"go for it."

I LOVE YOU.

Perhaps the most important three words that you can say. Telling someone that you truly love them satisfies a person's deepest emotional needs.The need to belong, to feel appreciated and to be wanted. Your family, your friends and you,all need to hear those three little words. "I love you."

GOD BLESS YOU!
(These are 3 words too, right?)

Be kinder than necessary, for everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.

"Don't ever do anything as though you were an amateur."Anything you do, do it as a Professional to Professional standards.
"If you have the idea about anything you do that you just dabble in it, you will wind up with a dabble life.
There'll be no satisfaction in it because there will be no real production you can be proud of.

"Develop the frame of mind that whatever you do, you are doing it as a professional and move up to professional standards in it.

"Never let it be said of you that you lived an amateur life."Professionals see situations and they handle what they see. They are not amateur dabblers.

The only successful beings in any field, including living itself, are those who have a professional viewpoint and ARE professionals.

A professional learns every aspect of the job.
An amateur skips the learning process whenever possible.

A professional carefully discovers what is needed and wanted.
An amateur assumes what others need and want.

A professional looks, speaks and dresses like a professional.
An amateur is sloppy in appearance and speech.

A professional keeps his or her work area clean and orderly.
An amateur has a messy, confused or dirty work area.

A professional is focused and clear-headed.
An amateur is confused and distracted.

A professional does not let mistakes slide by.
An amateur ignores or hides mistakes.

A professional jumps into difficult assignments.
An amateur tries to get out of difficult work.

A professional completes projects as soon as possible.
An amateur is surrounded by unfinished work piled on unfinished work.

A professional remains level-headed and optimistic.
An amateur gets upset and assumes the worst.

A professional handles money and accounts very carefully.
An amateur is sloppy with money or accounts.

A professional faces up to other people’s upsets and problems.
An amateur avoids others’ problems.

A professional uses higher emotional tones: Enthusiasm, cheerfulness, interest, contentment.
An amateur uses lower emotional tones: anger, hostility, resentment, fear, victim.

A professional persists until the objective is achieved.
An amateur gives up at the first opportunity.

A professional produces more than expected.
An amateur produces just enough to get by.

A professional produces a high-quality product or service.
An amateur produces medium-to-low quality product or service.

A professional earns high pay.
An amateur earns low pay and feels it’s unfair.

A professional has a promising future.
An amateur has an uncertain future.

The first step to making yourself a professional is to decide you ARE a professional.

Are you a professional?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~"The Sneeze"~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This is very inspiring to see in our upcoming generation .......... Enjoy, I did !!

THE SNEEZE

They walked in tandem, each of the ninety-two students filing into the already crowded auditorium. With their rich maroon gowns flowing .. and the traditional caps, they looked almost ... as grown up as they felt.

Dads swallowed hard behind broad smiles, and Moms freely brushed away tears.

This class would NOT pray during the commencements----not by choice, but because of a recent court ruling prohibiting it.

The principal and several students were careful to stay within the guidelines allowed by the ruling. They gave inspirational and challenging speeches, but no one mentioned divine guidance and no one asked for blessings on the graduates or their families.

The speeches were nice, but they were routine.....until the final speech received a standing ovation.

A solitary student walked proudly to the microphone. He stood still and silent for just a moment, and then, it happened.

All 92 students, every single one of them, suddenly SNEEZED!!!!

The student on stage.. simply looked at the audience and said, "GOD BLESS YOU,

each and every one of you!" And he walked off stage...

The audience exploded into applause. This graduating class had found a unique way to invoke God's blessing on their future with or without the court's approval.

Isn't this a wonderful story? Pass it on to all your friends.........and GOD BLESS YOU!!!! This is a true story; it happened at the University of Maryland .

This is ABSOLUTELY beautiful..

I would rather live my life as if there is a God, and die to find out there isn't, than live my life as if there isn't, and die to find out there is.

LET IT GO!!
There are people who can walk away from you. And hear me when I tell you this! When people can walk away from you: let them walk. I don't want you to try to talk another person into staying with you, loving you, calling you, caring about you, coming to see you, staying attached to you. I mean hang up the phone.
When people can walk away from you let them walk. Your destiny is never tied to anybody that left. The bible said that, they came out from us that it might be made manifest that they were not for us. For had they been of us, no doubt they would have continued with us. [1 John 2:19]
People leave you because they are not joined to you. And if they are not joined to you, you can't make them stay. Let them go. And it doesn't mean that they are a bad person it just means that their part in the story is over. And you've got to know when people's part in your story is over so that you don't keep trying to raise the dead. You've got to know when it's dead. You've got to know when it's over.
Let me tell you something. I've got the gift of good-bye. It's the tenth spiritual gift, I believe in good-bye. It's not that I'm hateful, it's that I'm faithful, and I know whatever God means for me to have He'll give it to me. And if it takes too much sweat I don't need it.
Stop begging people to stay. Let them go!! If you are holding on to something that doesn't belong to you and was never intended for your life, then you need to...... LET IT GO!!! If you are holding on to past hurts and pains ...... LET IT GO!!!
If someone can't treat you right, love you back, and see your worth..... LET IT GO!!!
If someone has angered you . LET IT GO!!!
If you are holding on to some thoughts of evil and revenge...... LET IT GO!!!
If you are involved in a wrong relationship or addiction...... LET IT GO!!!
If you are holding on to a job that no longer meets your needs or talents ............ LET IT GO!!!
If you have a bad attitude...... LET IT GO!!!
If you keep judging others to make yourself feel better...... LET IT GO!!!
If you're stuck in the past and God is trying to take you to a new level in Him........ LET IT GO!!!
If you are struggling with the healing of a broken relationship....... LET IT GO!!!
If you keep trying to help someone who won't even try to help themselves...... LET IT GO!!!
If you're feeling depressed and stressed...LET IT GO!!!
If there is a particular situation that you are so used to handling yourself and God is saying "take your hands off of it," then you need to ...... LET IT GO!!!
Let the past be the past. Forget the former things. GOD is doing a new thing for 2008!!!
LET IT GO!!! Get Right or Get Left .. think about it, and then,,,,.LET IT GO!!!
"The Battle is the Lord's !"
During the next 60 seconds, Stop whatever you are doing, and take this opportunity. (Literally it is only ONE minute!) All you have to do is the following: You simply say "The Lords Prayer" for the person that sent you this message:
The Lords Prayer: Our Father, who art in Heaven, Hallowed be Thy Name, Thy Kingdom Come, Thy Will be done, on Earth as it is in Heaven. Give us this day, our daily bread and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil. For Thine is the Kingdom, and the Power, and the Glory, forever! Amen!!!
Stop and think and appreciate God's power in your life, for doing what you know is pleasing to Him.
If you are not ashamed to do this, follow the instructions! Jesus said, If you are ashamed of me, I will be ashamed of you before My Father" If you are not ashamed, send this message... only if you believe. "Yes, I love my God. He is my fountain of Life and My Savior. He Keeps me going day and night. Without Him, I am no one. But with Him, I can do everything, Christ is my strength."
This is a simple test. If you love God and you are not ashamed of all the great things that He has done for you, send this to everyone you know, and the person that sent it to you! God loves you and watches over you everyday.
God Bless you in 2008!!!

Psalms 118:8 "It is better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence in man."
Now isn't that odd how this worked out (or was God in the center of it)?
I said a prayer for you. Got a minute? 60 seconds for God?
All you do is say a small prayer for the person who sent you this.........
"Father God bless my friend in whatever it is that you know he/she may be needing this day!
And may his/her life be full of your peace, prosperity and power as he/she seeks to have a closer relationship with You.

Make Prayer A Habit
ROMANS 12:12 NRSV-12 Rejoice in hope, be patient in suffering, persevere in prayer. Prayer is a habit that, like every other good habit, must be developed.
You know you need to pray. You need God's help, His wisdom and His guidance. But you must persevere in prayer. The activities of life try to keep you from praying. So persevere!
LUKE 21:36 BBE-36 But keep watch at all times with prayer, that you may be strong enough to come through all these things and take your place before the Son of man.
In communing with God, you gain strength that comes in no other way. You find the wisdom and courage to face life and overcome.
1 THESSALONIANS 5:17-18 ICB-17 Never stop praying. 18 Give thanks whatever happens. That is what God wants for you in Christ Jesus. Learn to always include God in your thoughts. Ask Him about everything. Cultivate your relationship by continual communication. And one of the most important things for you to communicate to God is your gratitude.
Thank God for everything. Don't relegate prayer to just when you're on your knees. As you go about your activities, include God by constant communion with Him. Talk to God about everything!
SAY THIS: Lord, help me to develop the habit of continual communication with you.
"Life is not measured by the number of breaths that we take, but instead, by the moments that take our breath away..."

God, My Dad & God-Father-See you both on the other side, My Mom, and Pastor.
"Blessings"
I count the blessings that are mine Refreshing breeze and warm sunshine, A small but ample share of wealth, And all my loved ones blessed with health.
Often I sit and look around, Marveling at favors that abound, And know I'm very rich indeed, In having furnished all I need.
Perhaps most treasured of them all Is faithful friends that I can call. There's nothing blessed as a friend Who sticks with me through thick and thin.
Now, let me recommend to you The friend who'll always prove most true - It's Jesus Christ, my faithful friend, Who will be with me to the end.
He'll understand my problems here And help me through my trials and tears. He knows my weaknesses and woes; He's always with me - this I know!
LOVE YA
One morning you will never wake up . Do all your friends know you love them? I was thinking...I could die today, tomorrow or next week, and I wondered if I had any wounds needing to be healed, friendships that needed rekindling, or three words needing to be said. Let every one of your friends know you love them. Even if you think they don't love you back, you would be amazed at what those three little words and a smile can do. And just in case GOD calls me home before I see you again......
I LOVE YA!!!
