This Tiny Cross of Pain
Though prayers for healing
seemed in vain ,
God helped me learn
to live with pain ;
To use the very
thing I dread
For closer walk
with Him instead ;
And how to lend
a listening ear
To those who hurt\
and shed a tear
of symapathy,
or press their hand –
worth more because
I understand .
Dear God ,if that’s
the only way
You’d have me serve
from day to day ,
please use this
tiny cross of pain
for others
and for Heavens’s gain !

Be of Good Cheer
Be of Good Cheer
Cheerful thoughts like sunbeams
lighten up the darkest fears
For when the heart is happy
there’s just no time for tears .
For the nature of our attitude
toward circumstantial things
Determines our acceptance
of the problems that life brings ,
And since fear and dread and worry
Can not help in any way ,
It’s much healthier and happier
to be cheerful every day .
For when the heart is cheerful
it cannot be filled with fear ,
And without fear the way ahead
seems more distant and clear .
And we realize there’s nothing
we need ever face alone ,
For our heavenly Father loves us
and our problems are His own
“My presence will go with you ,and I will give you rest .”
Exodus 33:14

THE FUTURE IS YOURS
THE FUTURE IS YOURS
The future is yours ,
it belongs to you,
And with faith in God
and in yourself , too ,
No hill’s too high ,
No mountain’s too tall ,
For with faith in the Lord
You can conquer them all .
And that you wish for
That is honest and true
The Lord will certainly
give to you,
Not always the way
you most desire ,
But He always gives
what you most require.
So accept what He sends,
be it bitter or sweet ,
For God knows best
what makes life complete

Success is be measured not so much by the position that one has reached in life as by the obstacles which he has overcome while trying to succed

Great Men
I will mention the lovingkindnesses of the Lord, and the praises of the Lord." Isaiah 63:7
One time, a man came into a village, and he asked an old man living there, "Any great men born here?" And the old man said, "No, just babies." Great men are not born; great men are made investing in the lives of others, sharing His love, and showing His mercies. Our calling is to be poured out into the lives of others for His glory. There is not a magic formula that instantly makes us sanctified. Sanctification is a process.
How can you show His mercies to a lost co-worker or neighbor today?
Pray about it and then watch for how God provides!
If You Can't...Do
==================
If you can't fly then run, if you can't run then walk,
if you can't walk then crawl, but whatever you do
you have to keep moving forward.

He Lives In Me
He Lives In Me
He lives in me ,I know He does ,
He guides my steps ,and through His eyes
I see the beauty of the days ,
The earth , the rivers and the skies .
Throughout the stillness of the night ,
I am at peace because I feel
His presence deep within my soul ,
And never doubt that He is real .
He lives in me …what miracle ,
That made from only humble clay ,
This heart of mine can reach right up ,
And touch His own ,each time I pray .
His ways are wiser than my own ,
And so within His loving hands,
I place my little hopes and dreams ,
Because He truly understands .
Nor will I fear what lies ahead ,
Before His light all shadows fade ,
In His good time shall come pass ,
The plans for me that He has made .
And so I need no tongue to speak ,
No ears to hear , no eyes to see ,
My needs are well provided for ,
….Because I know God lives in me !
Jan Bagwell
God Bless !!
