    --e.e. cummings

    "To be nobody but yourself in a world which is doing its best night and day to make you like everybody else means to fight the hardest battle any human being can fight and never stop fighting."

    C.S Lewis

    The Christian does not think God will love us because we are good, but that God will make us good because He loves us; just as the roof of a sunhouse does not attract the sun because it is bright, but becomes bright because the son shines on it."

    Marian Anderson

    As long as you keep a person down, some part of you has to be down there to hold him down, so it means you cannot soar as you otherwise might.

    So I throw my life upon all You are, ‘Cause I know You gave it all for me, And when all else fades, My soul will dance with You, Where the love lasts forever.

    Destiny is not a matter of chance, it is a matter of choice; it is not a thing to be waited for, it is a thing to be
    achieved.

    If you ever get a second chance in life for something, you've got to
    go all the way.

     
     
    Anais Nin
    Life shrinks or expands in proportion to one's courage.
     
    Peter McWilliams
    Come to the edge,' he said.
    They said, 'We are afraid.'
    'Come to the edge,' he said.
    They came.
    He pushed them...
    And they flew.
     
    Louis E. Boone
    Don't fear failure so much that you refuse to try new things. The saddest summary of a life contains three descriptions: could have, might have, and should have.

    Leo Buscaglia

    Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around.

    It's OUR Fault?
    You keep blaming God for all the worlds problems, well it's not His fault.
    What have you done to feed the hungry?  How many people have you saved?  Your so smart, what have you done for society at large to improve humanity?
    Bad things happen.  Sometimes i wish i knew why, but stuff happens.  Sin is the problem in the world.  I've solved world hunger.  If every human being who was well enough off could feed one or two others who couldn't feed themselves, EVERYONE would have food.  I'm not even talking about millionares and  billionares! they could probably give 2 meals a day to 1000 people or more!  There it's solved.  No wait, people are selfish, and greedy, and don't want to help.  Sorry, but I have discovered and proved at least that world hunger is not God's fault but peoples.  Violoence in the streets?  Last I checked, that's one person killing another, not God.  War?  Somebody decides they want land that's not theirs, and fight for it.  Everyones always blaming someone else, and it's always easy to blame our problems on a "god" who apparently can't defend himself.  Well i'm doing it right now.  As for disease, i don't know why people die from that.  Disease is another thing that our fault.  Not directly, but sometimes it is.  When man sinned in the garden of eden, that brought death and disease.  As for HIV and AIDS, i'm sorry if you were born with it, that's a sad circumstance.  But those who contracted it, don't blame God.  The bible says not to have premarital sex for a reason, not so that you can't have fun, but because God wroth the bible for all time, knowing that STD's and HIV would spread quickly.  Also the bible says not to do drugs for that one of many reasons also, you take drugs with a used needle, and you can contract HIV or Hepatitis.  As for genetic syndromes, I don't know.  They are a result a genetic mutation, and the more our genetic code degrades because of sin, the more of this stuff will happen.
     
    Jesus brought the solution.  Himself!  Jesus has healing power.  His entire ministry consisted of healling ALL that came to Him.  No wonder when the Gospels were written and circulated in the first century, that no-one disputed or denied the facts, there were thousands of witnesses!  When you experience the love of Jesus, you know this is true, and you just want to share that with the world.  He is the only one that can change this world.  I've seen people healed.  Not the ones that say theur healed of something you can't see, i mean people brought in on stretchers, and they leave standing, people in wheelchairs get up and walk.  An elaborate hoax?  Maybe, if it were'nt a Muslim country where the people healed don't even believe in the Jesus of the bible!  There has been one girl healed because her friend was so scared for her life, that he went to a christian space and asked for him, and others to pray for her.  He was a hard-core God-hater, and when his friend was healed the next day, he and her both believed, and all his God-hating friends believed!   His name is Chris and his link is to the right <--------- of this blog. 
     
    Well that's it.  If you see a kid at school, and he's too poor to have a lunch, how about you share yours?  Take that step to solve poverty.  Or you could hoarde it all to yourself and blame God for that kid not having food.  What's even sadder, is that i think that someone on my own msn list posted that comment :( , and was too scared to leave their name.  I would have like to know who that was.  Anyways thanks for reading!

    Nelson Mandela

    "Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, and fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small doesn't serve the world. There's nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We are born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us, it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others."

    Isaiah 1:17-18

    Stop doing wrong. Learn to do right. Seek justice, encourage the oppressed. Defend the cause of the fatherless, plead the case of the widow. Come now, let us reason together, says the Lord
     
    Justice : The upholding of what is just, especially fair treatment and due reward in accordance with honor, standards, or law.
     
    Oppressed: those burdened with cruel or unjust impositions or restraints

    Love has nothing to do with what your expecting to give, it has to do with what your expecting to give - which is everything

    Aristotle

    What is a friend? it is a single soul , dwelling in two bodies

    Og Mandino

    • Beginning today, treat everyone you meet as if they will be dead by midnight.  Extend to them all the care, kindness and understanding you can muster, and do it with no thought of any reward. Your life will never be the same again.
    • Count your blessings. Once you realise how valuable you are and how much you have going for you , the smiles will return, the sun will break out,  the music will play, and you will finally be able to move forward with the life God intended for you with grace, strength, courage and confidence
    • Failure will never overtake me if my determination to suceed is greater
