Look on the Sunny Side

Look on the Sunny Side

There always two sides ,
the good and the bad ,
The dark and the light ,
the sad and the glad,
But in looking back over
of good and the bad
We’re aware of the number
of the good things we had .
And in counting our blessings
we find when we’re through
We’ve no reason at all
to complain or be blue ,
So thank God for good things
He already done ,
And be grateful to Him
for the battles you’ve won ,
And know that the same God
who help you before
Is ready and willing
to help you once more .
Then with in your heart
reach out for God’s hand
And accept what He sends
though you can’t understand ,
For our Father in heaven
always know what is best,
And if you trust in His wisdom
your life will be blessed ,
For always remember
that whatever betide you
You are never alone
for God is beside you.

God Bless !

If you keep my commandments ,
you will abide in my love, just as
I have kept my Father’s commandment
and abide in his love . These things I have
spoken to you ,that my joy be in you ,and
that your joy may be full .
John 15 :10,11

As I’ve Walked Thru Life

As I’ve Walked Thru Life

I’ve learned that you can do something in an instant that will give you heartache for life .
I’ve learned that you should always leave loved ones with
loving words .It may be the last time you see them .
I’ve learned that we are responsible for what we do no matter how we feel .
I’ve learned that either you control your attitude or it controls you .
I’ve learned that heros are the people who do what has to be done when it needs to be done regardless of the consequences
I’ve learned that my best friend and I can do anything or nothing and have the best time
I’ve learned that sometimes the people you expect to kick you when you’re down will be the ones to help you get back up .
I’ve learned that true friendship continues to grow ‘even over the longest distance .
I’ve learned that just because someone doesn’t love you the way you want them to doesn’t mean they don’t love you with all they have .
I’ve learned that maturity has more to do with what types of experiences you’ve had and what you’ve learned from them and less top do with how many birthdays you’ve celebrated .
I’ve learned that no matter how good a friend is , they’re going to hurt you every once in a while and you must forgive them for that .
I’ve learned that it isn’t always enough to be forgiven by others , sometimes you have to learn to forgive yourself
I’ve learned that our background and circumstances may have influenced who we are , but we are responsible for who we become .
I’ve learned that just because two people argue ,it doesn’t mean they don’t love each other and just because they don’t argue ,it doesn’t mean they do .
I’ve learned that we don’t have to change friends if we understand that friends change .
I’ve learned that two people can look at the exact same thing and see something totally different .
I learned that even when you think you have no more to give ,when a friend cries out to you ,you will find the strength to help
I’ve learned that credentials on the wall do not make you a decent human being .
I’ve learned that the people you care about most in life are taken from too soon .
I’ve learned that family and friends are what make us who we are today ,and without them we would never be complete .
I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God , died on the cross for our sins, is the only one that can save us from hell . In this life and the one that comes when this one is over .

Worry No More ! God Know the Score

Worry No More !
God Know the Score

Have you ever been caught
In a web you didn’t weave ,
Involved in conditions
that are to believe ?
Have you felt you must speak
And explain and deny
A story that’s groundless
Or a small ,whispered lie ?
Have you heard rumors
You would like to refute
Or some telltale gossip
You would like to dispute ?
Well, don’t be upset ,
For God knows the score
And with God your judge
You need worry no more ,
For men may misjudge you
But God’s verdict is fair ,
For He looks deep inside
And He is clearly aware
Of every small detail
In your pattern of living
And always He lenient
And fair and forgiving ---
And knowing that God
Is your judge and your jury
Frees you completely
From man’s falseness and fury ,
And secure in this knowledge
Let your thoughts rise above
Man’s small , shallow judgments
That are so empty of
God’s goodness in greatness
In judging all men
And forget ugly rumors
And be happy again.

Summer Beauty

Summer Beauty

The loveliness that I behold
So far beyond compare ,
The joy I feel within my soul
Tells me my Savior’s near .

I see Him in red roses
That bloom along the vine .
I feel Him in the gentle wind
That sweeps the Summer pines .

The sky enfolds me like a glove
Of magic azure blue ,
And I’m reminded that His love
Surrounds me this way,too !

A rolling carpet of green grass
Back up this breathless view
And I know for me that Heaven
Will be in colors of this hue .

As the sun slips slowly out of sight
In its westerly direction ,
I want to whisper ,” Please don’t go ,
Don’t end this day’s perfection .”
Jan Bagwell
God Bless !

.Wish Not for Ease

Wish Not for Ease
If wishes worked like magic
And plans worked that way , too ,
And if everything you wished for ,
Whether good or bad for you ,
Immediately were granted
With no effort on your part ,
You’d experience no fulfillment
Of your spirit or your heart ,
For things achieved too easily
Lose their charm and meaning , too ,
For it is life’s difficulties
And the trail-times we go through
That make us strong in spirit
And endow us with the will
To surmount the insurmountable
And to climb the highest hill
So wish not for the easy way
To win your heart’s desire ,
For the joy’s in overcoming
For to triumph over trouble
And withstanding flood and fire
For to triumph over trouble
And grow stronger with defeat
Is to win the kind of victory
That will make your life complete.

God Bless !
For anything worth having one must
the pay the price ; and the price is
always work ,patience ,love , self-sacrifice-
no paper currency , no promises to pay ,
but the gold of real service .
Sister Julie Smith well has gone dry .
Anybody who has any ideal how to fix
this problem , can email me , and I will pass
it on to her . And please be in prayer for her .
