Poem for Friend

Standing for what you believe in
regardless of the odds against you
and the pressure that tears at your resistance
This is Courage

Keeping a smile on your face
when inside you feel like dying
for the sake of supporting others
This is strength

Stopping at nothing
and doing what in your heart
you know is right
This is Determination

Doing more than is expected
to make another's life a little more bearable
without uttering a single complaint
This is Compassion

Giving more than you have
and expecting nothing
but gratitude in return
This is Selflessness

Helping a friend in need
no matter the time or effort
to the best of your ability
This is Loyalty

Dying

Perhaps something is amiss or has gone awry, but the Lord is still in charge and He has promised never to leave you nor forsake you.

Give God the praise for what He is doing in your life right now.

One Life…

First I was dying to finish high school and start college.


And then I was dying to finish college and start working.


Then I was dying to marry and have children.


And then I was dying for my children to grow old enough so I could go back to work.



But then ......
I was dying to retire.


And now, I am dying . . .And suddenly I realized I forgot to live.


Please don’t let this happen to you. Appreciate your current situation



Thanks God for the good and bad in your life.


If you are living for God, your current situations are working for good.


Remember that everyday is a day of thanksgiving. Give God the praise for what He is doing in your life right now.


Perhaps something is amiss or has gone awry, but the Lord is still in charge and He has promised never to leave you nor forsake you.


The song declares that, This Too Shall Pass, because God is working it out for you.


While you are in the now, God is in the NOT YET!!!


Have a Wonderful and Blessed Day!!!
