A Favourite Hymn:
This would have to be one of my ultimate favourite hymns of all time. It speaks of comfort in the Lord in times of trouble, and singing it always moves me like no other thing does. Unfortunately, YouTube has been the only way I could find the audio.
DAY BY DAY
Day by day and with each passing moment,
Strength I find to meet my trials here;
Trusting in my Father's wise bestowment,
I've no cause for worry or for fear.
He whose heart is kind beyond all measure
Gives unto each day what He deems best
Lovingly, its part of pain and pleasure,
Mingling toil with peace and rest.
Ev'ry day the Lord Himself is near me
With a special mercy for each hour;
All my cares He fain would bear, and cheer me,
He whose name is Counsellor and Pow'r.
The protection of His child and treasure
Is a charge that on Himself He laid;
"As thy days, thy strength shall be in measure,"
This the pledge to me He made.
Help me then in ev'ry tribulation
So to trust Thy promises, O Lord,
That I lose not faith's sweet consulation
Offered me within Thy Holy Word.
Help me, Lord, when toil and trouble meeting,
E'er to take, as from a father's hand,
One by one, the days, the moments fleeting,
Till I reach the promised land.
~ by: Sandell-Berg (Skoog) & Ahnfelt ~
A Favourite Poem:
A few months back, a special friend shared to me this. Although I know that this is a common poem sent as a chain e-mail, it has a great significance to the relationship I have with this person; as well, it can relate to other valued friends I hardly see nowadays...
Around the corner I have a friend,
In this great city that has no end.
Yet the days go by and weeks go on,
And before I know it, a year has gone.
And I never see my old friend’s face,
For life is a swift and terrible race.
He knows I like him just as well,
As in the days when I rang his bell.
And he rang mine but we were younger then,
And now we are busy, tired men.
Tired of playing a foolish game,
Tired of trying to make a name.
“Tomorrow,†I’ll say! “I’ll call on Jim,â€
“Just to show that I'm thinking of him.â€
But tomorrow comesand tomorrow goes,
And distance between us grows and grows.
Around the corner, yet miles away,
“A telegram sir, Jim died today.â€
And that's what we get and deserve in the end,
Around the corner, a vanished friend.
The moral being: take the time out of your busy schedules and find some quality time to spend with those you love and cherish; or even just give them a phone call to remind them that you care. Seriously, a phone call/SMS worth ONLY a few cents should NOT have to feel like a chore or financial burden!
Each day without contacting a friend (or loved one) is a day lost of opportunites, and fatally & ultimately, a day lost of memories.
I hear you, Mr Noll.

[SEE HOW IT'S WOMEN OF THESE DAYS WHO ARE TRUELY THE UNSUNG HEROES - SHAME ON YOU, MISOGYNISTS!]
PRAYERS CAN'T BE UNSWERED, UNLESS THEY ARE PRAYED
Life without purpose
is barren indeed,
There can't be a harvest -
unless you plant seed.
There can't be attainment -
unless there is a goal,
And man's a robot -
unless there's a soul.
If we send no ships out -
no ships will come in,
And unless there's a contest -
nobody can win.
For games can't be won -
unless they are played,
And prayers can't be answered -
unless they are prayed.
So whatever is wrong
with your life today,
You'll find a solution
when you kneel and pray.
Not just for pleasure,
enjoyment and health,
Not just for honours
and prestige and wealth.
But pray for a purpose -
to make life worth living,
And pray for the
joy of unselfish giving.
For great is your gladness
and rich your reward,
When you make
your life's purpose -
the choice of the Lord.
