.. ~Beloved, let us love one another, because love is from God; everyone who loves is born of God and knows God.
Whoever does not love does not know God, for God is love. God's love was revealed among us in this way:
God sent his only Son into the world so that we might live through him. In this is love, not that we loved God but that he loved us and sent his Son to be the atoning sacrifice for our sins.
Beloved, since God loved us so much, we also ought to love one another. No one has ever seen God; if we love one another, God lives in us, and his love is perfected in us.
-1 John 4:7-12 (NRSV)

†The Rose Of Sharonâ€
I did not feel your pain when t he y stole your life away
I did not feel the knife as t he y plunged it deep in side
I did not hear your screaming when you died inside
But I knew of you my sister, when that little girl in you died.
I have known you for ever, I know you even now
I know t he y took you under ... will u let t he m keep you down?
Existing always in death never to awaken to life....
Always another storm, but never a new flight...
Fly on you beautiful angel, pick up wings and go
No chains can hold you down now, if you only will let go.
You are the one with power in which t he y want to hold, and when you drop that anchor, no longer will t he y have control.
You are the Rose of Sharon so sweet your secret sin, come out from yonder battle and begin to live again...

†††â€
that little girl was the child that died in me... It takes so little effort to reach out to another person and listen, to comfort or sooth an aching soul...
To show someone you do not know some love and compassion...
A broken heart that needs mending, a teen struggling with identity, a child without a father, a mother who has lost her way, a homeless person, a spirit that has become broken.
In a world so big, loneliness is the worst thing Anyone should have to do!
A heart is not a picture of the perfect flesh, but a beating, breath, being that is looking for some solace in life, and a place of acceptance and belonging.
Today reach out to someone in need..... You may just help to Save a life!

.. I am a Child of Christ. I am free because of what ChrisT did for me on Calvery. I am perfectly imperfect, but I am who I am. Working on being less of myself and more of a benifit for the purpose of helping others! Still have lot's of worldly behaviors that need changing, but I confess when I have wronged another and continue on. I am broken and humbled. I live, I seek, and I AM!..
.. I love my kid's they are best reason for waking up everyday!.
I see myself as: Passionate, Playful... I’m a mother, a student, a counselor, a friend. I work full time and attend college
I am passionate about life and what I do in it; I like to be silly, love music, camping and fishing, the mountains and freedom!
I am a very positive person for the most part, with a happy disposition...
I have been through many battles in my life and know that life is what you choose to make it...
It's the journey that matters in life....
embracing the experiences and people we meet along the way.
It’s about the hearts and lives we touch in a positive way, giving and receiving love,epathy, and compassion. Giving support to one another and enjoying every moment we are given in time!
I love to write poetry and about life. I enjoy travel and photography, people watching, boat races, motorcycles.... fast cars, outreach and community events! I like flea markets and walks along mountain rivers.
.. MY PERSONALITY TYPE
You are seeking an affectionate relationship, offering fulfilment and happiness. You are capable of powerful emotional enthusiasm. Deep down, you are a kind loving person, always helpful and willing to adapt yourself if necessary to realise the bond of affection that you desire. But you need the same consideration and understanding from others and it is this need that will sometimes hold you back... so let go, trust and you may pleasantly surprised at what happens.
You are looking for excitement and stimulation and you are ready to try anything - but be careful not to take too many risks.
Everyone has to compromise at times and circumstances are such that at this time you are feeling the need to do just that.
Put all of your hopes on the back burner and let matters flow for a time - forgo some of the things you want.
The good times are just around the corner..... As of late, you have been experiencing untold stress and this is a result of continuous frustration. You haven't been taking care of all your physical needs and it's beginning to show. It would seem that you have a need to find someone to whom you can really relate - someone perhaps whose standards are as high as your own. You want to be different - to be individualistic - to stand out from the common herd. Your inherent control of your sensual instincts is restricting your ability to give yourself to open up freely but this being on your own, being lonely, often makes you feel the need to give up some of your strict standards to surrender to the general flow - to be like everyone else; a part of the herd. Deep down you regard such instincts as weaknesses to be overcome. You would like to be loved or admired for yourself alone. You demand recognition and tender loving care.
You have so many ideas that you would like to revitalise but you need to realise a stable and peaceful condition to do so. Once you can free yourself from all the aggravation and tension around you, you will make strides that may amaze you. You will not be prevented from achieving all the things you so desire.
I am Love..
I have seen the flames of love, touched its burning embers. A soul crying out searching for its destiny.... A soul suspended in flight.
I am a burning ember of passion, love is my desire...
A waiting to be coupled into that eternal flame where love ceases to end.
M eet me in the heavens, loves light don't pass me by.
L et me be a beacon of luminosity that continues to reflect the feeding flame
O h to know such wonders, so powerful it holds me tight.
V ictory over death, love gives eternal flight.
E nchanting endless romance holding sweet simplicity
