Get It Right

What have I done? I wish I could run. Away from this ship going under. Just trying to help, hurt everyone else. Now I feel the weight of the world is on my shoulders.

Can I start again with my faith shaken? Cause I can't go back and undo this. I just have to stay and face my mistakes. But if I get stronger and wiser, I'll get through this.

 
What can you do when your good isn't good enough? When all that you touch tumbles down? Cause my best intentions keep making a mess of things. I just want to fix it somehow. But how many times will it take to get it right?

So I throw up my fist. Throw a punch in the air. And accept the truth, that sometimes life isn't fair. I'll send down a wish. I'll send up a prayer. 

And finally, someone will see how much I care..

 

So help me, LORD..

Attitude

The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude on life. Attitude, to me, is more important than facts. It is more important than the past, the education, the money, than circumstances, than failure, than successes, than what other people think or say or do. 

It is more important than appearance, giftedness or skill. It will make or break a company, a family...a home. The remarkable thing is I have a choice everyday regarding the attitude I will embrace for that day. I cannot change my past. I cannot change the fact that people will act in a certain way. I cannot change the inevitable. The only thing I can do is play on the one string I have, and that is my attitude. 

I am convinced that life is 10% what happens to me and 90% of how I react to it. And so it is with you...I am in charge of my Attitudes.

Have a blessed end year..

Blessings

We pray for blessings
We pray for peace
Comfort for family, protection while we sleep
We pray for healing, for prosperity
We pray for Your mighty hand to ease our suffering
All the while, You hear each spoken need
Yet love us way too much to give us lesser things

We pray for wisdom
Your voice to hear
And we cry in anger when we cannot feel You near
We doubt Your goodness, we doubt Your love
As if every promise from Your Word is not enough
All the while, You hear each desperate plea
And long that we'd have faith to believe

Cause what if Your blessings come through raindrops?
What if Your healing comes through tears?
And what if a thousand sleepless nights are what it takes to know You’re near?
What if my greatest disappointments or the aching of this life s the revealing of a greater thirst this world can’t satisfy?
And what if trials of this life, the rain, the storms, the hardest nights are Your mercies in disguise?

When friends betray us
When darkness seems to win
We know that pain reminds this heart
That this is not, this is not our home
It's not our home!

Sabbath Shalom.. 

Your Choice

Live according to the word of God or according to the church and world tradition. Your choice.

Hold Fast

The key to receive the promises of God is never giving up. Hold fast. Do good. In doing so, expect the harvest for yourself, your family, your community, and the greater community of believers.

"Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up." (Galatians 6:9)

Happy Birthday, Sista! The LORD bless you abundantly!! ;)

Pointed Heavenward

Material goods promise fulfillment, happiness, and meaning. We work our lives away to acquire new cars, fashionable clothes, and expensive homes. They end up breaking their promises, tricking us, and leaving our souls unsatisfied. We expect the beautiful Rachel, but we're left with the weak-eyed Leah (Genesis 29).

Your desire indicates what you value. Thus, it should be pointed heavenward, towards the only One who truly satisfies. "Store your treasures in heaven, where moths and rust cannot destroy, and thieves do not break in and steal." Matthew 6:20.

 Sabbath Shalom.. 

Someday

After all my struggles, I would someday meet my man, my equal. A man with the same charisma, love of life and humanity I possessed. In the meantime, I'd have the LORD, my family, my friends...and the knowledge that I deserved the world.  ♥

 

A Good Woman's Love

A good woman’s love and sympathetic heart
Are still the most valuable blessings of life.
She becomes our friend, lover, mother and partner
When we treasure, provide and love her as our wife.

Women never forget all we do and say
They recall visions of us both present and past.
We must eagerly commutate the depth of our love
If we wish our relationship to flourish and last.

A good woman’s love can withstand a lifetime
When we pledge our support and thoughts to serve her.
We must conduct ourselves with patience and prayer
For our happiness to stay mutual, everlasting and sure.

All Heavens heroes had their need for love
And were greatly affected by its presence or loss.
A good woman’s love is best of the rest
When nourished with servitude regardless of cost.

Esther's Love

Esther of God’s Bible became a king’s queen
Risking all for the sake of love.
She saved her people form total extinction
By responding to her call from above.

All through history just like Esther
Ladies have pledged to protect and serve.
They love, honor, defend and provide
And it’s our admiration they’ve earned and deserve.

What would life be without a woman’s love
Meaningless, lonely, purposeless and sad.
When your blessed by an Esther love her in return
And be sure to let God know you’re thankful and glad.

The Christmas Spirit

This is a lesson taught by Bro. Deuel about the co-mingling of Pagan customs into Christianity. He explains where these customs originated from using several history and reference books proving that none of them are BIBLICAL. Please forgive the glitches in the first 6-7 minutes of the lesson due to technical issues with the original recording. Enjoy!
