"God Is"
His goal is a relationship with ME! He will never
leave me,
Never forsake me, never mislead me,
Never forget me, never overlook me,
When I fall, He lifts me up!
When I fail, He forgives!
When I am weak, He is strong!
When I am lost, He is the way!
When I am afraid, He is my courage!
When I stumble, He steadies me!
When I am hurt, He heals me!
When I am broken, He mends me!
When I am blind, He leads me!
When I am hungry, He feeds me!
When I face trials, He is with me!
When I face persecution, He shields me!
When I face problems, He comforts me!
When I face loss, He provides for me!
When I face Death, He carries me Home!
He is everything for everybody, everywhere, everytime,
and ever way.
He is God, He is faithful.
I am His, and He is mine!
My Father in heaven can whip the father of this world.
So, if you're wondering why I feel so secure,
understand this...
He said it and that settles it.
God is in control, I am on His side, and that means
All is well with my soul. Everyday is a blessing for
GOD Is!
I love the Lord and thank Him for all that He does in
my life,
Yes I do love Jesus. He is my source of existence and
Savior.
He keeps me functioning each and everyday.
Without Him, I will be nothing.
Without Him, I am nothing but with Him I can do all
things.
AMEN !!!!

"A Tear To The Eye"
Barbara was driving her six-year-old son, Benjamin, to
his
piano lesson.
They were late, and Barbara was beginning to think she
should
have cancelled it. There was always so much to do, and
Barbara,
a night-duty nurse at the local hospital, had recently
worked
extra shifts.
She was tired. The sleet storm and icy roads added to
her
tension. Maybe she should turn the car around.
"Mom!" Ben cried. "Look!" Just ahead, a car had lost
control
on a patch of ice. As Barbara tapped the brakes, the
other car
spun wildly rolled over, then crashed sideways into a
telephone
pole.
Barbara pulled over, skidded to a stop and threw open
her door.
Thank goodness she was a nurse - she might be able to
help
these unfortunate passengers.
Then she paused. What about Ben? She couldn't take him
with
her. Little boys shouldn't see scenes like the one she
anticipated. But was it safe to leave him alone? What
if their
car were hit from behind?
For a brief moment Barbara considered going on her
way. Someone
else was sure to come along. No! "Ben, honey, promise
me you'll
stay in the car!"
"I will, Mommy," he said as she ran, slipping and
sliding toward
the crash site. It was worse than she'd feared. Two
girls of
high school age are in the car. One, the blonde on the
passenger
side, was dead, killed on impact.
The driver, however was still breathing. She was
unconscious
and pinned in the wreckage. Barbara quickly applied
pressure
to the wound in the teenager's head while her
practiced eye
catalogued the other injuries. A broken leg, maybe
two, along
with probable internal bleeding. But if help came
soon, the girl
would live.
A trucker had pulled up and was calling for help on
his cellular
phone. Soon Barbara heard the ambulance sirens. A few
moments
later she surrendered her lonely post to rescue
workers.
"Good job," one said as he examined the driver's
wounds. "You
probably saved her life, ma'am." Perhaps.
But as Barbara walked back to her car a feeling of
sadness
overwhelmed her, especially for the family of the girl
who had
died. Their lives would never be the same. Oh God, why
do such
things have to happen?
Slowly Barbara opened her car door. What should she
tell
Benjamin? He was staring at the crash site, his blue
eyes
huge. "Mom," he whispered, "did you see it?"
"See what, Honey?" she asked.
"The angel, Mom! He came down from the sky while you
were
running to the car. And he opened the door, and he
took that
girl out."
Barbara's eyes filled with tears. "Which door, Ben?"
"The passenger side. He took the girl's hand, and they
floated
up to Heaven together"
"What about the driver?"
Ben shrugged. "I didn't see anyone else."
Later, Barbara was able to meet the families of the
victims.
They expressed their gratitude for the help she had
provided.
Barbara was able to give them something more - Ben's
vision.
There was no way he could have known what happened to
either
of the passengers. Nor could the passenger door have
been
opened; Barbara had seen its tangle of immovable steel
herself.
Yet Ben's account brought consolation to a grieving
family.
Their daughter was safe in Heaven. And they would see
her again.

Have a Blessed Day
