God’s Love and Scriptures- Will Not Change
The world of men, women and children, change;
Their food-habits and dressing styles may change;
Their ways of talking, walking, laughing, change;
But Bible’s words are true and never change!
Man’s outlook and his sense of values change;
The weather, climate, seasons also change;
The water of rivers and seas may change,
But Scripture’s words are true and never change!
Man’s needs in life and ambitions may change
Man’s occupations, moral values, change
Man’s goals and approaches also may change,
But Holy Scripture’s words will never change.
The devils too, their tempting tactics, change;
God’s love for man is same and will not change.

Where there is hatred or resentment: Let love and understanding conquer;
Where there is trouble and stress: Let faith and peace prevail;
Where there is misunderstanding: Let wisdom and compassion overcome;
Where there is sickness and pain: Let God's hands heal thee;
Where there is failure and defeat: Let perseverance and victory prevail;

Where there is love: Know that God is always there;
Therefore abideth in the love of God and He will bless thy soul forever; and in His kingdom you will always be - secure and safe from all enemies; for He is the God Shepard of us All, and with Him we cannot fall;
Time is just an infinite space that would mean nothing without God's grace; and as we rush thru each new day - take time to pray; thank Him for His faithfullness, and praise Him for his graciousness;
A home He has built us that can never be destroyed - it's filled with love and overflowing with joy - it shelters and keeps our souls on earth as in heaven above; therefore, delight in His wisdom and His love;

When God takes something from your grasp, He's not punishing you, but
merely opening your hands to receive something better.
Concentrate on this sentence.....
"The will of God will never take you where the Grace of God will not
protect you."
Thank you for this to Joy Alexander

Amazing Life
With hopes and fears I started my day
With lot of happenings in my way
Where I shared my secret thoughts with God
Who is my only only friend and my Lord
I babbled and mumbles at the strange marks
And whispered in God's ears in the dark
And shed tears of joy and some pain
And resent those moments that were vain
I asked dear Lord to fulfill my dreams
I requested Him to show me that stream
Where I can dip my sorrows and pain
And return from there with happiness gain
Where life shows different styles and layouts
Where sometimes I come across many doubts
And try to find additional option's key
Where I can see what I want to see
For the thrill of knowing is great my dear
Where layers of life comes without fear
And there everything that I need to begin
Comes from God's streams and den
And there I thanked my God who cares
For letting me search through the layers
Through the layers of this amazing life
Where we are all bound to survive.

God's Thank You Card
I wish I could write a letter
Or give God
A Thank You Card
But I know its impossible
For He would know
Just what it would say
From the finish
Back to the start.
Life has not been easy
But it wasn't quite as bad.
Although pains pursued me
It was God who kept me glad.
Life would not have been as easy
If He hadn't done so much for me.
He even opened doors
It was hard for me to believe.
If I could write God a letter
Or give Him
A Thank You Card
I'd feel so much better
Because I love Him
From sincerely deep within
And I Thank Him
With all my heart.

Helping you over the mountains of life
Helping You Over The Mountains of Life
Once upon a time...................
There was a rich merchant who had 4 wives.
He loved the 4th wife the most and adorned her with rich robes and treated her
to delicacies. He took great care of her and gave her nothing but the best.
He also loved the 3rd wife very much. He's very proud of her and always
wanted to show off her to his friends. However, the merchant is always in great
fear that she might run away with some other men.
He too, loved his 2nd wife. She is a very considerate person, always patient and
in fact is the merchant's confidante. Whenever the merchant faced some
problems, he always turned to his 2nd wife and she would always help him out
and tide him through difficult times.
Now, the merchant's 1st wife is a very loyal partner and has made great
contributions in maintaining his wealth and business as well as taking care of the
household. However, the merchant did not love the first wife and although she
loved him deeply, he hardly took notice of her.
One day, the merchant fell ill.
Before long, he knew that he was going to die soon. He thought of his luxurious
life and told himself,
"Now I have 4 wives with me. But when I die, I'll be alone. How lonely I'll be!"
Thus, he asked the 4th wife, "I loved you most, endowed you with the finest
clothing and showered great care over you. Now that I'm dying, will you follow
me and keep me company?" "No way!" replied the 4th wife and she walked away
without another word. The answer cut like a sharp knife right into the merchant's
heart.
The sad merchant then asked the 3rd wife, "I have loved you so much for all my
life. Now that I'm dying, will you follow me and keep me company?" "No!"
replied the 3rd wife. "Life is so good over here! I'm going to remarry when you
die!" The merchant's heart sank and turned cold.
He then asked the 2nd wife, "I always turned to you for help & you've always
helped me out. Now I need your help again. When I die, will you follow me and
keep me company?" "I'm sorry, I can't help you out this time!" replied the 2nd
wife. "At the very most, I can only send you to your grave." The answer came
like a bolt of thunder and the merchant was devastated.
Then a voice called out:
"I'll leave with you. I'll follow you no matter where you go."
The merchant looked up and there was his first wife.
She was so skinny, almost like she suffered from malnutrition. Greatly grieved,
the merchant said, "I should have taken much better care of you while I could have!"
Actually, we all have 4 wives in our lives . . .
The 4th wife is our body.
No matter how much time & effort we lavish in making it look good,
it'll leave us when we die.
Our 3rd wife?
Our possessions, status and wealth.
When we die, they all go to others.
The 2nd wife is our family and friends. No matter how close they had been there
for us when we're alive, the furthest they can stay by us is up to the grave.
The 1st wife is in fact our Spirit, often neglected in our pursuit of material wealth
and sensual pleasure.
Guess what?
It is actually the only thing that follows us wherever we go.
Perhaps it's a good idea to cultivate and strengthen it now rather than to wait
until we're on our deathbed to lament the neglect . . .
Today is a good day to start courting the real first lady.

God's Amazing Stars!
Stars beyond reach, that
are forever blazing...
Seem ever so small,
but totally amazing!
These stars above,
that twinkles and shines...
Are scattered throughout,
God's own darkened designs!
Big bang theory is named
by man...This is God's own
doing, a grand-master plan!
Space is everlasting,
so awsome a sight...
All done by God, to His
own delight!

Dignity and Grace
Dignity and Grace
In our lives we all have problems to hand
should we just bury our heads in the sand.
Will the problems then disappear over night
if we close our eyes do they go out of sight.
Should we cope alone inside the dark hole
living in the darkness just like the blind mole.
When we are feeling low think of the advice
we give to others remembering it has a price.
No ones lives run just as they would choose
to bury our heads friends we could lose.
Tomorrow is another day use it to repair
the problems you can change if you dare.
Problems are the creation of our actions
with others we can share our reflections.
To bury you're head in the sands of time
alone and feeling lost I do think is a crime.
Many problems have I not maybe drastic
I will bounce back as on a piece of elastic.
I could just run away from it all now today
and hope that they will all disappear away.
But I will stand strong and try to embrace
my problems for I have dignity and grace.
