OH HAPPY DAY!

Just another day? Well sure it may be for you , but today is a day of grieving for some we know. Life is so fragile, be sure you know that no matter what you are doing or where you are going, you have a right relationship with Jesus. It is paramount that you do.

I pray for the family that just lost their daughter. She is now in heaven rejoicing with Jesus, how do I know, well she had that personal relationship with Jesus.

This little poem I wrote for my sister when her daughter past and now I share it here:

A little light in this
World has seemed to be snuffed out,
But she is now with Jesus
Running jubilantly
Leaping and praising God
Forever in eternity.
No more will she suffer
No more will there be pain
Now, as we who are left
Can carry on her light and
Love For life
And cling to the day
We will see her again.

Here is a song that we can sing in celebration knowing our loved one is with Jesus!

Verse 1:
The greatest day in history, Death is beaten
You have rescued me
Sing it out Jesus is alive
The empty cross, The empty grave
Life eternal You have won the day
Shout it out Jesus is alive
He's alive

Chorus:
Oh happy day, happy day
You washed my sin away
Oh happy day, happy day
I'll never be the same
Forever I am changed

Verse 2:
When I stand, in that place
Free at last, meeting face to face
I am Yours Jesus You are mine
Endless joy, perfect peace
Earthly pain finally will cease
Celebrate Jesus is alive
He's alive

Chorus:
Oh happy day, happy day
You washed my sin away
Oh happy day, happy day
I'll never be the same OH NO
Forever I am changed

I'll Love You Forever


Somthing for my Precious Lorie!!
You and I are connected
in a way that goes beyond romance,
beyond friendship,
beyond what we've ever had before.
It has defied time, distance,
and changes in ourselves
and in our lives.
It has defied every explanation.
Except one:
Pure and simply, we're soul mates.

I can't explain, I just feel it.
It's there in the way my spirits lift
whenever we talk.
The sound of your voice brings me home,
in a way I can't explain.
It's in the delight I feel, when we laugh
at exactly the same things.
When I'm with you,
it's like a tiny piece of the universe
shifts into place.
A place it's supposed to be,
and all is right with the world.

These things and so many more,
that this is a once in a lifetime,
forever connection.
A connection that could only exist
between you and me.
And deep in my soul,
I know that our relationship
is a rare gift.
One that brings us
extraordinary happiness
all through our lives.

A little about nothing!

When nothing comes to write it is hard to post just anything. I was going to post all of Zechariah 8, but you can read it for yourself. I then was remembering the times when I was Young, but yet nothing. So I thought I would just give you my thought on nothing. So when the sun rises and you wake up what do you think of for the first moment you open your eyes. Me I think of can I get out of this bed without waking my gorgeous wife, sometimes it works then sometime it doesn't.
I get up and go to shower and brush the morning breath away, I don't know about you but I offend myself with my own morning breath, anyway I then get a coffee and come here to write this blog.

I know your thinking wow what and exciting morning, well let me tell you something, sometimes I brush my teeth first, before I shower and sometimes after I shower, you know just a way to mix things up.

Anyway Have a great day!!

What do you do?

We go on day afterday, what we do in that day is of consequence. We may stub our toe and then we swear. Or we may get stuck in traffic and curse when the other drivers dont drive like you think they should. Then when you are just sitting thinking you may find yourself in a state of impure thoughts.
There is a way to rectify that. If you live your life for Jesus and be in prayer always, He will guide you and you will find you dont do what you have in the past. I mean you, with His help, will be able to control what you did before.

I know when I have some things that I cant control it really helps to pray and ask Jesus for the help, in those types of areas, I need and He is most gracious to give it. Now I have to be willing.

Keep living for Him and he will direct your paths.

He could have called ten thousand angels!

What a weekend! It was busy yes, but you know to see the outcome of our Giving church, again I say wow.
This was the best Global Focus yet! I think we should all stand up and applaud!

God is so good to us. We need not look any further that Jesus for the answer. He is always there. I see that many struggle, but what are out little struggles when you see how there are those in the world who actually live for Jesus, but in doing so could loose there lives, Are you ready to die for your Saviour? It is a hard questions to answer and yet it is so simple. When you live you life and give yourself totally to Jesus Christ, you will have no answer but, "yes I will live for Him totally".

It takes guts, the you found out a  sampling of what it would mean by experiencing a sampling of a underground church, even if it wasn't real it gave them a respect and a realization of what could be required of them to serve Jesus. We may all be called into service and we need to be sure we are ready to speak!

Are you ready? If you were called right now to go into a dangerous situation, that might cost you your life, would you be ready. I know I have to look at myself to see if I am ready.

Just remember this, Jesus died for our sins and He was beaten and bruised for us.

He could have called ten thousand angels.

They bound the hands of Jesus in the garden where he pray
They led him through the street in shame
They spat upon the Saviour so pure and free from sin
They said crucify him he's to blame.

He could have called ten thousand angels
To destroy the world and set him free
He could have called ten thousand angels
But he died alone for you and me.

Upon his precious head they placed a crown of thorns
They laughed and said behold the king
They struck him and they cursed him and mocked his holy name
And all alone he suffered everything.

He could have called ten thousand angels
To destroy the world and set him free
He could have called ten thousand angels
But he died alone for you and me...

This is a song I heard as a child and it still has an impact. Here is a link to hear it.

Computers!

You know when all things are going well you will find that the enemy puts things in your path for you to loose you "glory" so to speak. Yesterday I had a major issue with my desktop computer and I had to reinstall everything. So hence the reason for missing the blog yesterday. My Apologies.

Other than the melt down all things work together for good. You know that you have the ability to just keep on rejoicing when things go badly. You do not have to loose your cool or you do not have to have issues with anything, but just keep you eyes on the one whom you love with your whole heart and He will keep you driving correctly. Will you be able to keep it up. Well I have learned that you will not be able to on your own. You need His guidance and perfect peace in order to keep it up. Jesus is the one who can walk you down the right path but you still have a choice which path to take. He will not stop you from making the wrong choice but if you keep living for Him here will keep on guiding you.

God bless you all this wonderful day!

EXUBERANT HAPPINESS

When you look at today it should be a day filled with exuberant happienes. Why you ask. Well you woke up on the top side of the grass. You are still breathing. This is something to be excieted about. You have been given another day to live your life. You have been given another opportuninty to serve. How you will spend your day is of your own doing.

You can spend it complaining or you could spend it rejoicing you have another chance to share with your friends. You can choose to do what you want. How will you spend it. Lets all have a great day.

Here is a question for you: ( this does not relate to anything)

What is the origin of April Fools Day?

There are several explanations for the origin of April Fools' Day, but the following is the most plausible one. April 1st was once New Year's Day in France. In 1582, Pope Gregory declared the adoption of his Gregorian calendar to replace the Julian calendar and New Year's Day was officially changed to January 1st. It took some time for everyone in France to hear the news of this major change, and others obstinately refused to accept the new calendar, so a lot of people continued to celebrate New Year's Day on the first of April - earning them the name 'April fools'. The April fools were subjected to ridicule and practical jokes and the tradition was born. The butts of these pranks were first called poisson d'avril or 'April fish' because a young naive fish is easily caught. A common practice was to hook a paper fish on the back of someone as a joke. This evolved over time and a custom of prank-playing continues on the first day of April.
