Happiness is inward
and
not outward; and so it
does
not depend on
what we have,
but on what we are.
~Henry van Dyke~
The light of
God surrounds us, enfolds us,
The power of
God protects us.
The presence of God watches over
us.
Wherever we are, God IS
Eventide
I want
to know, when day is done,
that life has been worth
living-
that I have
brought somebody joy
Through kind, unselfish
living.
I want
to know when evening falls
and shadows quickly
lengthen,
that I
have made somebody glad,
some
weakness I have strengthened.
I want to know, come
what may,
I've
left some cheer and gladness.
I want to feel, at close of
day,
I've banished
someone's sadness.
I want to feel at close of
day,
that
someone's cares were lighter;
because of kindess I have
done,
may someone's life be
brighter.

The Father's
Love
Did you know you had an Angel watching over
you?
Though you cannot see them, you can
be sure it's true.
By day
or by night as they guide you as you work and play,
Your Heavenly
Father has provided
for you in His loving
way.
Special People
Special people are those who have
the ability
to share their lives with others.
They are honest with word and deed.
They are sincere and compassionate,
and they always make sure that love
is
a part of everything.
Special people are those who have the
ability
to give to others and help them with the
changes
that come their way.
They are not afraid of being
vulnerable;
they believe in their
uniqeness
and are proud to be who they are.
Special people are
those
who allow themselves the
pleasures
of being close to others
and caring about their happiness.
They have come to understand
that love is what makes
the difference in life.
Special people are those
who truly make life
beautiful.

God, make my life a little
flower
that giveth joy to all,
Content to bloom in native
bower
Although it's
place be small
~Matilda B. Edwards~
A little boy about
10 years old was standing before a
shoestore on broadway, barefooted,
peering thru a
window and shivering
from cold. A lady approched
the boy and
said, "my little fellow, why are you looking
so earnestly
thru that window?" "I was asking God to
give me
a pair of shoes" was the boys reply. The lady
took
him by the hand and went into the store, and asked
the clerk to get half
a dozen pair of socks for the boy.
She then
asked if he could give her a basin of water and
a towel and he quickly brought them to her. She took
the
little fellow
to the back part of the store and, removing
her gloves,
knelt down, washed his feet and dried them
with a towel. By this time, the clerk had returned with
the
socks.
Placing a pair upon the boys feet, she purchased
him a pair of shoes,
and tying up the remaining pairs of
socks, gave
them to him. She patted him on the head and
said,
"no doubt, little fellow, you feel more comfortable
now?" As she
turned to go, the astonished boy caught
her by the hand, and
looking up in her face, with tears
in his
eyes, answered the question with these words......
" Are you God's wife?"
Thinking
of You
This morning
when I wakened
And saw the sun
above
I softly said, "Good morning, Lord--
Bless everyone
I love."
Right away I
thought of you
And said a loving
prayer
That he would
bless you specially
And keep you
free from care.
I thought of
all the happiness
A day could hold
in store
I wished it
all for you because
No one
deserves it more.
I felt
so warm and good inside
My heart was all
aglow,
I know God heard my
prayers for you,
He hears
them all, you know.

CONFIDE IN A
FRIEND
When you're tired and worn at the close
of the day
And things just don't seem to be
going your way,
When even your patience has come
to an end,
Try taking time out and confide
in a friend.
Perhaps they may have walked the similar
road,
With a much troubled heart and burdensome
load,
To find peace and comfort somewhere near
the end,
When they stopped long enough to confide
in a friend.
For then are most welcome a few words of
cheer,
For someone who willingly lends you an
ear.
No troubles exist that time cannot
mend,
But to get quick relief just confide in a friend.
Happy
times and bygone days are never lost...
In truth,
they grow more wonderful within the
heart that keeps
them
~Kay
Andrew~
There are
persons so radiant, so kind, so genial,
so pleasure-bearing
that you instinctively feel in
their presense that they do you good, whose coming
into a room is like
the bringing of a lamp there.
~Henry Ward
Beecher~
Make a joyful noise
unto the Lord...
Serve
the Lord with gladness: come before His presence
with singing...For the Lord is good; His mercy is everlasting
and His truth
endureth to all generations.
Psalms:100:1-2&5
Footsteps Of
Angels
The Lord sent an angel
to guide us day by
day.
That Angel has been
there
every step of the
way.
Whenever you are lonely
or feeling kind of
blue.
Jesus sends an angel to
look after you.
If you should grow
weary
or need a helping
hand,
Your angel is beside you,
leading you through the land.
So if you are alone
and need someone to
look after you,
Just call out to Jesus
and He will send an
Angel to you.

Reach Out
My friend, do not feel lost,
reach out, cause I
am here.
I'll try to help you
stand against,
everything you fear.
Alone, life can be
scary,
but now
I'm here with you.
Together we are strong enough
to see your problems
through.
Your friends are there
to lean on,
when you find, you can't
be strong.
We are part of
your family,
a place where you belong.
So quickly take my hand,
and soon, all will be right.
We'll find a way to make
the day,
and your heart feel light.
