I hope U all will support me to do so. URz JOYce Each Time by Kathryn Lim This song is for me Indeed God's grace would not lead us to where it cannot keep us. Each time I worry An angel would whisper “Fear Not Fear Not” It is God who sees you through Each time I am disappointed An angel would whisper “Don’t Give up! Don’t give up!” She is showing you the stories of life Each time I’m angry An angel would whisper “Let go and forgive” For she wants to see cheerful hearts Each time I cry An angel would whisper “Hush hush my baby” God has kept your tears in her bottle And turned them into Victory Each time I fail to trust and I feel so weak An angel would say to me “I know it is not easy but I'd like you to trust” And know that Her grace would not lead you to where it can’t sustain you And so I picked up the sun again and embrace it Laugh laugh and laugh my heart Indeed indeed God's grace is strong It would not lead me to where it cannot keep me It would not lead me to where it cannot keep me This song is for you This song is for me Indeed God's grace would not lead us to where it cannot keep us. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JOYce Posted October 23, 2003 Author Report Share Posted October 23, 2003 The Power of Love By Fran Hafey If you judge people, you have no time to love them Mother Teresa How many times has a little one come to you after falling down, with a boo-boo and ask for you to kiss it and make it all better? Did that kiss make the pain go away or was it love? When two people are newly in love, they have trouble eating, sleeping and functioning because of "love." They daydream and float on a cloud with the feelings of love. Love can melt the meanest heart, calm a situation, heal wounds, change minds and give hope and peace to this world. That is the power of love. What has love done in your life? Do you know what real unconditional love is? Is it that kind of love that says "I don't care what color your skin is or what language you speak, where you are from or how rich or poor you are? I just love you." We don't always have to love the person, as we would a family member, but we need to love everyone with the loving respect they deserve just because they are a living, human being. We may not like the way they look, live, act, or believe, but we can still love their heart and soul. Unconditional love is not always easy. So many speak of it, but how many practice it? I find there are many things in our everyday lives we know are good for us, but we just somehow don't do them. For instance, taking our vitamins, exercising, slowing down, getting more sleep, eating right and so on, to name a few. Why does it surprise anyone that we may not love the way we should, to truly have a better life, filled with love and peace? I am sickened when I watch television or listen to the radio and I hear commercials about how diamonds are a sign of love and how buying one will make you and your partner happy and love will abound. That is so sad, that the children are being taught this message. Have you noticed how many months now have holidays where people are "expected" to buy gifts for each other? What is happening? Why do people think buying things or objects makes one happy or shows love? It can, only temporarily. I think its fine to give a gift to someone because you love them and appreciate them. But, it should be because we want to, not due to a Holiday or to convince someone to love us. I have many things around me that I like and appreciate, but people are much more important and showing them love with the passion we do for "things" is something many need to work on. Spending money and shallowness is not the message that needs to be shared about love. Love is not conditional. You don't love someone for what you can gain. We must learn to love ourselves first before we can share love with another. Many go through the motions and think they're loving. I know I love my family and friends, but when I truly found love for myself, my ideas of love changed and grew. Divine love is the ultimate love that we obtain when we seek true, unconditional love for ourselves and all those around us in this huge Universe. Divine love is God love. That love deep within our soul that we find when we reach the place where nothing matters, except love. The Divine truth, that we came from love and we must work and strive to return to love. We may have to live many lives before we reach that point where we finally find and understand, unconditional love. Love is not just a feeling, love is an action. Are you acting with love in your life, heart and soul today? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JOYce Posted October 30, 2003 Author Report Share Posted October 30, 2003 Never Never Never Gives Up When things go wrong, as they sometimes will When the road you're trudging seems all uphill. When the funds are low and the debts are high And you want to smile, but you have to sigh, When care is pressing you down a bit, Rest, if you must - but don't you quit. Life is queer with its twists and turns, As everyone of us sometimes learns, And many a failure turns about When he might have won had he stuck it out. Don't give up though the pace seems slow - You might succeed with another blow. Often the goal is nearer than it seems to a faint and faltering man, Often the struggler has given up When he might have captured the victor's cup. And he learned too late, When the night slipped down, How close he was to the golden crown. Success is failure turned inside out - The silver tint of the clouds of doubt - And you never can tell how close you are, It may be near when it seems afar. So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit Its when things seem worst that you mus'nt quit. Shiv Khera 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
