BE STILL, MY SOUL

Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth. (Psalm 46:10)

We all need to relearn daily: “They that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength …” (Isaiah 40:31).

Be still, my soul—the Lord is on thy side! Bear patiently the cross of grief or pain; leave to thy God to order and provide—In ev’ry change He faithful will remain. Be still, my soul—thy best, thy heav’nly Friend thru thorny ways leads to a joyful end.

Be still, my soul—thy God doth undertake to guide the future as He has the past; thy hope, thy confidence let nothing shake—All now mysterious shall be bright at last. Be still, my soul—the waves and winds still know His voice who ruled them while He dwelt below.

For Today Girls read: Proverbs 3:5; Isaiah 30:15; 40:31; Hebrews 10:35 Determine to live by the truth that “the Lord is on thy side!”

Remember that “All now mysterious shall be bright at last—”

An Oyster!

There once was an oyster, whose story I tell;
Who found that some sand had got into his shell.
It was only a grain, but it gave him great pain;
For oysters have feelings, although they are plain.

Now, did he berate the harsh workings of fate,
That had brought him to such a deplorable state?
"No," he said to himself, "Since I cannot remove it,
I'll lie in my shell, and think how to improve it."

The years rolled around,as the years always do,
And he came to his ultimate Destiny...stew.
Now the small grain of sand that had bothered him so,
Was a beautiful pearl all richly aglow.

This tale has a moral, for isn't it grand,
What an oyster can do with a morsel of sand?
Think... What could WE do, If we'd only begin,
With some of the things that get under OUR skin.

Sometimes I Wonder!

Sometimes I wonder how I've been, who I am or do I fit in. Sometimes I wonder where I'm going, who I am, or do I even care... Sometimes I just wonder... When I sit home and wonder what God has planned, my wonder makes me wonder even more. Sometimes I wonder if I had done things differently would I still be wondering at all. Sometimes I wonder if I never had the fall, or the accident would I still be working 2 Jobs, in every multi level marketing business areound. Sometimes I just wonder. Sometimes I wonder how life would be if I wasn't married, didn't have any children, or grandchildren... Sometimes I wonder how my life would be. I'm entitle to Wonder.... Sometimes I wonder how would it be if I just didn't take life for granted, or even considered living life to the best of my ability... Sometimes I wonder. Sometimes I wonder how my life would be if My dad was in my life... WOW! that's a real wonder... We ponder on many different things each day, and we analyze how, what, when, or where! Sometimes I just wonder! What would it be life if we didn't have the option to wonder? What would it be like if we didn't have the mindset that God Gave us.... I guess my point of wondering is this.... God has given me life,and the life to have the ability to wonder. I thank Him for allowing me another opportunity to wonder about my Salvation... So with out a wonder... I just want to say Thank you Jesus your the Wonder in my SOUL.... I need NOT worry about anything as long as I have YOU!

Just Me by: Leah

Have you ever wondered which hurt the most? Saying something and wishing you hadn't? Or saying nothing and wishing you had? I guess the most important things are the hardest things to say. Don't be afraid to tell someone you love them. If you do they might break your heart...if you don't you might just break theirs. have you decided not to become a couple because you were so afraid of losing what you already have with that person? Your heart decides whom it likes and whom it doesn't. You cant tell your heart what to do. It does it on its own when you least suspect it, or even when you don't want it to. Have you ever wanted to love someone with everything you had, but the other person was too afraid to let you? Too many of us stay walled up because we are to afraid to care too much... for fear that the other person does not care as much, or even at all. have you ever denied your feeling for someone because of fear of rejection was too hard too handle? we tell lies when we are afraid..... afraid of what we don't know, afraid of what others think, afraid of what will be found out about us. but every time we tell a lie , the thing we fear grows stronger. Life is about taking risk and it requires you to jump. Don't be a person who has look back and wonder what they would have done, or could have had. What would you do if every time you fell in love you had to say goodbye? What would you do every time you wanted someone they would never be there? what would you do if your best friend died tomorrow and you never got to tell them how you felt?(even if it is that you don't care anymore) What would you do if you loved someone more than ever and you couldn't have them? what would you do if you never got to say 'i am friends with all of my family and they know i love them ? PEOPLE LIVE, BUT PEOPLE DIE...
