MEMO FROM GOD
Effective immediately, please be aware that there are changes you need to make in your life. These changes need to be completed in order that I may fulfill my promises to you to grant you peace, joy, and happiness in this life. I apologize for any inconvenience, but after all that I am doing, this seems very little to ask of you. I know, I already gave you the Ten Commandments. Keep them. But follow these guidelines, also:
1. QUIT WORRYING
Life has dealt you a blow and all you do is sit and worry. Have you forgotten that I am here to take all your burdens and carry them for you? Or do you just enjoy fretting over every little thing that comes your way?
2. PUT IT ON THE LIST
Something needs done or taken care of. Put it on the list. No, not YOUR list. Put it on MY to-do-list. Let ME be the one to take care of the problem. I can't help you until you turn it over to me. And although my to-do-list is long, I am after all, God. I can take care of anything you put into my hands. In fact, if the truth were ever really known, I take care of a lot of things for you that you never even realize.
3. TRUST ME
Once you've given your burdens to me, quit trying to take them back. Trust in me. Have the faith that I will take care of all your needs, your problems and your trials. Problems with the kids? Put them on my list. Problem with finances? Put it on my list. Problems with your emotional roller coaster? For my sake, put it on my list. I want to help you. All you have to do is ask.
4. LEAVE IT ALONE
Don't wake up one morning and say, "Well, I'm feeling much stronger now, I think I can handle it from here." Why do you think you are feeling stronger now? It's simple. You gave me your burdens and I'm taking care of them. I also renew your strength and cover you in my peace. Don't you know that if I give you these problems back, you will be right back where you started? Leave them with me and forget about them. Just let me do my job.
5. TALK TO ME
I want you to forget a lot of things. Forget what was making you crazy. Forget the worry and the fretting because you know I'm in control. But there's one thing I pray you never forget. Please don't forget to talk to me - OFTEN! I love you. I want to hear your voice. I want you to include me in on the things going on in your life. I want to hear you talk about your friends and family. Prayer is simply your having a conversation with me. I want to be your dearest friend.
6. HAVE FAITH
I see a lot of things from up here that you can't see from where you are. Have faith in me that I know what I'm doing. Trust me, you wouldn't want the view from my eyes. I will continue to care for you, watch over you, and meet your needs. You only have to trust me. Although I have a much bigger task than you, it seems as if you have so much trouble just doing your simple part. How hard can trust be?
7. SHARE
You were taught to share when you were only two years old. When did you forget? That rule still applies. Share with those who are less fortunate than you. Share your joy with those who need encouragement. Share your laughter with those who haven't heard any in such a long time. Share your tears with those who have forgotten how to cry. Share your faith with those who have none.
8. BE PATIENT
I managed to fix it so in just one lifetime you could have so many diverse experiences. You grow from a child to an adult, have children, change jobs many times, learn many trades, travel to so many places, met thousands of people, and experience so much. How can you be so impatient then when it takes me a little longer than you expect to handle something on my to-do-list? Trust in my timing, for my timing is perfect. Just because I created the entire universe in only six days, everyone thinks I should always rush,! rush, rush.
9. BE KIND
Be kind to others, for I love them just as much as I love you. They may not dress like you, or talk like you, or live the same way you do, but I still love you all. Please try to get along, for my sake. I created each of you different in some way. It would be too boring if you were all identical. Please know I love each of your differences.
10. LOVE YOURSELF
As much as I love you, how can you not love yourself? You were created by me for one reason only - to be loved, and to love in return. I am a God of Love. Love me. Love your neighbors. But also love yourself. It makes my heart ache when I see you so angry with yourself when things go wrong. You are very precious to me. Don't ever forget that!
With all my heart I love you,
GOD

The Power of Prayer
The Power of Prayer
Nobody knows the power of prayer ,
But somebody must be listening there
With a friendly ear for the heart that calls
Someone Who knows when a sparrow falls
Miracles lie in power of prayer ;
Faith that can banish the soul’s despair !
Hope that can shine like a holy light
And brighten the spirit’s darkest night !
When earthly help is no avail
There is one Friend Who will never fail ;
Just lift your eyes – the answer is there .
For nobody knows the power of prayer !

The Silver Cord
The Silver Cord
Some day the silver cord will break
And I no more as now shall sing ;
But , O, the joy when I shall wake
Within the palace of the King
Some day my earthly house will fall ,
I cannot tell how soon ‘twill be ,
But this I know ,my all in all
Has now a place in Heav’n for me .
Some day when fades the golden sun
Beneath the rosy-tinted west
My blessed Lord will say , Well done !”
And I shall enter into rest .
Some day till then I’ll watch and wait ,,
My lamp all trimmed and burning bright ,
That when my Savior opens the gate ,
My soul to Him may take its flight .
Jan Bagwell
God Bless !

You Can't Do This Alone
You can't do this alone.
You are in a crowd, yet by yourself for where you want to go.
You struggle, do a little better, then backslide to where you
were before and feel guilty about it.
Realize that you can't be or do what you are destined to alone.
You need God, but God sends guidance in a physical form.
In a human.
God did that with His son, but He also does that by sending
people into your life to teach, guide, direct and correct you.
You need to go to church. There is usually one within walking
distance of every home in any American city.
Yes, you've got some problems with the church because it is made
up of people with flaws. Even the preachers, we have flaws.
You won't find a perfect church or a perfect preacher but you
can find one that's perfect for you.
You can't do this alone.
You need guidance, teaching and example in a human form.
You must do three things.
1. Select
You must find the person who is right for you to teach and lead
you where you want to go. I recommend you find someone whose
life is where you want yours to be. No ones life is perfect but
some are certainly better than others. Find someone who has
SUCCESSFULLY gotten their life in order the way you want yours.
2. Submit
Look, if you knew it all or had the right answer, you wouldn't
be in this mess. Recognize that you need to submit yourself to
the leadership of another.
To truly change you, they may say some things that will make you
mad. Both truth and change often hurts.
Medicine is usually bitter.
Stop your own headstrong independent thinking and realize that
maybe you just need to do things differently and listen and
follow someone else with wisdom for a change.
That's a key... "for a change."
3. Sit
It will take time.
You didn't get in this overnight and you won't get out overnight.
It will take time.
Don't get discouraged, hang in there.
It takes 90 days of doing something different to break a habit
and form a new habit.
Hang in there.
You can't do it alone
...but then you are not alone.

If We Knew
If We Knew
If we knew the cares and crosses
Crowding round our neighbor’s way :
If we knew the little losses ,
Sorely grievous day by day .
Would we then so often chide him
For the lack of thrift and gain -
Casting o’er his life a shadow ,
Leaving on his heart a stain .
If we knew the silent story
Quivering through the heart of pain .
Would our manhood dare doom them
Back to haunts of guilt again ?
Life hath many a tangled crossing .
Joy hath many a break of woe ,
And the cheeks tear-washed seem whitest ,
This the blessed angels know .
Let us reach into our bosoms
For the key to other lives ,
And with love to erring nature ,
Cherish good that still survives :
So that when our disrobed spirits
Soar to realms of light again .
We may say , Dear Father , judge us
As we judged our fellowmen .
