Simple Blessings

We should thank the Lord every day for everything! A roof over you head Your next meal We assume it’ll be there To us it’s no big deal So many things we take for granted We think life goes on As we planned it.

You Can See God

I sat at my desk staring at the letter for a long time. It was written by a friend of mine who was going through some difficult times. It listed problem after problem and seemed full of despair.

We can say, though our love for them is strong, not even a parent s love...

Another Day

A little boy wanted to meet GOD.

He knew it was a long trip to where GOD lived, so he packed his backpack with sandwiches and a six-pack of lemonades, and started his journey. When he had gone about three blocks, he met an old man sitting on a bench. The oldman was sitting in the park staring at some pigeons. The boy sat down next to him and opened his backpack. He was about to take a drink from his lemonade when he noticed that the old man looked hungry, so he offered him a sandwich. The old man gratefully accepted it and smiled at the...
