Father I thank you for waking us this morning and for the gentle rest we received last night.  I thank you for being the awesome father, nurturer, and provider that you are.  Lord on this day my heart is heavy as I look at the negative things going on around me and the increase of violence occurring in every city and state.  Yet, I know that you said in your word these things would happen and that we should not be troubled.  I also know that you are able to change the situation and hearts of man.  Lord I ask that you enter the hearts and minds of your child opening our eyes to the people we are and the people you'd have us to be. Father I as that you show us the area's within us that are not pleasing to you, and give us the wisdom and ability to change into that man or woman that will be a pleasing vessel to you. Father I ask that you'd bring those who don't know you unto your salvation and place a desire in them so strong that they will seek you, find ...

With elegance and grace he's weaved his way into facets of me Awakening feelings I never knew existed Entry into my heart  this man has been given With the ability to view areas not seen by the natural eye Or touch by a loving hand This man The one I didn't believe exist Yet, prayed for endlessly Has shined a light where darkness dwell and emptiness called home A corner where dreams of true love had long been hiding in the shadows of someone else's life Someone else's love Some one else's dream And some else's reality What a difference God makes when prays are left at his feet To know that he finds no concern meaningless Our cares are his cares our desires his desires He takes the purity and concerns residing in his child's heart to the greatest height For He- himself is a lover One who loves in the purest form Endlessly Effortlessly Honestly Eternally Only asking that our faith and trust be in Him With this belief He's provided a s...

In a name.....

I'm trying to wrap my mind around the fact that my friend is gone.  The thought of only seeing her in pictures and /or old video is one I find hard to bear.  It's amazing when you think about how often we take the relationships we have with others for granted.  She called me a few days before her passing because she couldn't find Oprah's new network on her Canadian station.  We'll I wasn't much interested in Oprah's network and didn't know what channel it  was on on the US station so I figured I'd call her back when I knew something.   After a couple of days had gone by one of my friends on facebook had a site with Oprah's information and it appeared that there wasn't a station for Canada.  I'd been meaning to call her and tell her that but knowing how resourceful she was I figured she'd found it.  That was the last message I received and will ever receive from her.  The thought of that brings tears to my eyes.  People...

The absence of so many who have gone on year after year another rose blooms ushering in a fragrance beauty memory of how precious life and  loss can be like us roses bloom and then wither away leaving only the memories of a love to precious to forget and the hopes of an eternal life to come In memory of Johnny Murphy...

Something and someone I'm striving to be.   God's living testimony.  I don't want to take for granted the time He's given me.  I no everyday is a blessing, and the realization of that is only heighten,  when one only has the memories of love ones who've passed on.
