Those pesky forward emails... this one isn't pesky!


  Two traveling angels stopped to spend the night in the home of a wealthy family.
   The family was rude and refused to let the angels stay in the mansion's guest room. 
   Instead the angels were given a small space in the cold basement.
   As they made their bed on the hard floor, the older angel saw
   a hole in the wall and repaired it. 
   When the younger angel asked why, the older angel replied,
   "Things aren't always what they seem" 

   The next night the pair came to rest at the house of a very poor, but very 
     hospitable farmer and his wife.. 

   After sharing what little food they had the couple let the angels 
    sleep in their bed where they could have a good night's rest.
 

   When the sun came up the next morning the angels found the 
    farmer and his wife in tears.

   Their only cow, whose milk had been their sole income, lay dead in the field. 
   The younger angel was infuriated and asked the older angel how could 
     you have let this happen?

   The first man had everything, yet you helped him, she accused. 
   The second family had little but was willing to share everything, and you let the cow die..
   "Things aren't always what they seem," the older angel replied.. 

   "When we stayed in the basement of the mansion, I noticed there was gold stored in that hole in the wall.   Since the owner was so obsessed with greed and unwilling to share his good fortune, I sealed   the wall so he wouldn't find it."

   "Then last night as we slept in the farmers bed, the angel of death came for his wife I gave him the cow instead. 
   Things a ren't always what they seem."
   Sometimes that is exactly what happens when things  don't turn out the way they should. If you have faith, you just need to trust that every out come is always to your advantage. You just might not know it until some time later...

   Yesterday is history.
   Tomorrow a mystery.
    Today is a gift.
    That's why it's called the   present!  

   I think this is special...live and savor every
   moment... This is not a dress rehearsal!

        Right Now - 
   -somebody is thinking of you.
    -somebody is caring about you.
    -somebody misses you    -somebody wants to talk to you.
   -somebody wants to be with you.
    -somebody hopes you aren't in trouble.
    -somebody is thankful for the support you have provided.    -somebody wants to hold your hand.
   -somebody hopes everything turns out all right.
    -somebody wants you to be happy.    -somebody wants you to find him/her.
    -somebody is celebrating your successes.
    -somebody wants to give you a gift.
    -somebody thinks that you ARE a gift.    -somebody loves you.
    -somebody admires your strength.
    -somebody is thinking of you and smiling.
    -somebody wants to be your shoulder to cry on.
 



   SOMEBODY NEEDS YOU TO SEND THIS TO THEM 
  
   Never take away anyone's hope.  That may be all they have.
 


Smiles and Courtesy are contagious
Happiness and Kindness are the wealth of living

Walking with Christ

From that time many of His disciples went back and walked with Him no more. Then Jesus said to the twelve, “Do you also want to go away?” John 6: 66-67 What does it mean to walk with Christ? I asked this question today. To walk means to move, to go from one physical place to another. Unless you are walking on a treadmill and then you literally go nowhere! To walk with someone else you have to keep up with their pace, whether they walk slower or faster than you. To walk with Christ we need to watch Him and match our stride with His. Not lagging behind, yet also not walking too far ahead of Him either. I know I tend to run ahead to the future in my thoughts and not always listen to what the Lord tells me in the His Word, the Bible. Who are some people who walked with God? Abraham is one who comes to mind. When Abram was ninety-nine years old, the Lord appeared to Abram and said to him, “I am Almighty God; walk before Me and be blameless.” Genesis 17:1 Abraham walked so closely with God ...

Called, Chosen and Faithful

 “...and the Lamb will overcome them, for He is Lord of lords and King of kings; and those who are with Him are called, chosen, and faithful.” (Revelation 17:14b) The saints are called, chosen and faithful. It makes me think of Revelation chapter 19:11, where Christ is described as Faithful and True. Amazing to think that we will also share this attribute of being faithful to Him! We are called to follow Him and serve Him. Chosen, His Bride, who will be dressed in fine linen, robes of righteousness.  (Revelation 19:8)  “And there shall be no more curse, but the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it, and His servants shall serve Him. They shall see His face, and His name shall be on their foreheads.”  Revelation 22:3-4  Such encouraging words to meditate on! One day the curse of sin will be broken, and we shall serve at the throne of God and the Lamb.  We will see His beautiful face, the One whom we hid our faces from (Isaiah 53:3) We will see Him and...
