Purpose

Purpose
It outside Bryson City, NC, is a beautiful highway called by locals, "The Road to Nowhere." It is what is left of an aborted attempt to create a highway between Bryson City and Townsend, Tennessee. Environmental concerns caused the cessation of the project. Those who travel the road tell of how beautiful the scenery is and how smooth the highway is, but it simply comes to an end. Some people may find some temporal joys in this life. They may even have their share of pleasure. Eventually they must ask, "Am I going anywhere?" If we have no sense of purpose and meaning, we are on a road to nowhere.

I asked God

I asked God


I asked God for strength, that I might achieve.

I was made weak, that I might learn to obey.

I asked for health, that I might do greater things.

I was given infirmity, that I might do better things.

I asked for riches, that I might be happy.

I was given poverty, that I might be wise.

I asked for power, that I might have the praise of men.

I was given weakness, that I might feel the need of God.

I asked for all things, that I might enjoy life.

I was given life, that I might enjoy all things.

I got nothing that I asked for? but everything I had hoped for.

Almost despite myself, my unspoken prayers were answered.

I am, among all people, most richly blessed.

God wants the best for you

God wants the best for you


There should not be differences,
and even less discrimination.
Everyone should be treated equal,
no matter what the circumstances.

By god we were all created,
And more less like brothers and sisters.
By him we were choose to live this life,
All full of beauty and recreations.

Now do not mess all his work,
After he has made you part of it.
Treat everyone with respect,
And spread your love through your mates,
Do not scream at them or curse,
You will regret it,
Once they have passed away.

Life is short and unexpected.
Do not hurt feelings and be kind,
Spread no rumors,
You will be fine.
Live your life out of blame,
Always go for the best.

Lord Send My Angel

Lord Send My Angel


Lord send my angel
to sit at the foot of my bed
and shelter me from the crown of my head

Lord send my angel
to wake me in the love of Christ
to always conquer my days with peace and not strife

Lord send my angel
to watch over me all day long
as I go to and fro to keep me from all harm

Lord send my angel
who is powerful and strong
who shall guard my life forever long

Lord send my angel
and keep my angel dear and near
that I will feel no fear

Lord send my angel

Jesus Right Hand of God

Jesus Right Hand Of God


Jesus is at the right hand of God,
And from him alone, comes my staff and my rod;
To sooth and comfert, my aching soul;
To keep me safe, as I am growing old.

From the hand of God, whom all blessings flow;
And in his Holy light alone, my soul will glow.
Counting each blessing, that he sends my way;
And thanking him for, each one each day.

Through all of my pain, and each of my sorrows;
I will praise him today, and again tomorrow.
He has made the lame to walk, and the blind to see;
What he has done for others, he will do for you and me.

He saved Daniel, from the bite of the lion;
Just like he saves our souls, from a fate worse then dying;
For if we trust, and belive in him,
We shall all be united, in heaven again.
