I have a Reason

     " I have a Reason", He said. " It is in My Plan."

     "Why God?" I cried. " Can You pleas tell me why? I mean, I know you're good and all. I know that You loved him; I know that You have a Reason, but, why? " I buried my face, my thoughts in a tumult.

     Softly, God picked me up; He held me, and wiped away my tears. All was silent, and than, He said, "I have a Reason. It is in My Plan. "

     "But, you already..."

     "Shhh, be still. Have patience."

     I sat, quietly waiting, feeling shamed, yet still, though my lips were silent, my brains was whispering.... Why? why? why?

     Then, He spoke.... "I looked down, and I saw him, your friend. I was speaking to him for a long time... I was working with him. Daughter, every time a prayer was sent to Me, interceding for him, his soul, I spoke to him. I talked to him, and he was listening. Slowly, he began to change. He read My Book, and I spoke. He visited My House, I spoke. He talked to Me, and again I spoke. We talked through song. Dear one, I looked down on him, and I saw that door opening., and quietly, I spoke. I looked down and saw him, a sinner. He had had such a hard life, Satan had bombarded him for so long, and now, he was opening his hearts door. I loved him, and than, that morning, I saw him again. He had struggled enough, and it was time to take him Home. I allowed that accident to happen. No child, it was not mere Time and Chance, and in the minutes after the accident, I spoke to him. I told him I loved him, and that I wanted to help him to the Other Side. Gently, ohhh so gently, I picked him up, and took him to be with Me. It was, My Plan..."

     It grew quiet, and as I sat, a feeling of awe crept over me, and through my tears, I looked up, and embraced my Father.

    

...Thanksgiving...

Happy Thanksgiving people! :) Lately, with Thanksgiving coming up, my mind has wandered, naturally, to thanksgiving. Ok, maybe more of being thankful. Think about it a bit, when your thankful, you're usually happy right? And when your unhappy, usually it's because you're unthankful, right? Right!plus, now get this, since I'm a Christian that gives me a lot more to be thankful about, which in turn, implies that You and I, as a christian should always be happy, right? lol Well, unfortunately it isn't always so, at least when i think about myself, but I can tell you this much, and that's if you look for opportunities to be thankful, (yes , loook for opportunities) you will live a happier life. So, why not make every day Thanksgiving? Ok, so i realize that it is hard to be like that (once again i think of me), and there is, after all, a time for everything, sadness, happiness, laughter, soberness, etc. A lot could be said about thankfulness, but.... :) there's a time to stop too right? One more thing , one of my friends told me that every day, she tries to write down one thing good about the day. I'd like to give it a try...

In dedication....

Nothing can separate
Even if I ran away
Your love never fails

I know I still make mistakes
But You have new mercies for me everyday
Your love never fails

Chorus:
You stay the same through the ages
Your love never changes
There maybe pain in the night but joy comes in the morning

And when the oceans rage
I don't have to be afraid
Because I know that You love me
Your love never fails

Verse 2:
The wind is strong and the water's deep
But I'm not alone in these open seas
Cause Your love never fails

The chasm is far too wide
I never thought I'd reach the other side
But Your love never fails

Bridge:
You make all things work together for my good ~jesus culture~     Sorry yalls i haven't been keeping up with this much lately! Life can get kinda hectic you know? This last week my cousin Chet died. On the funeral this song was sung... it was one of his favorites. Just wanna post this in memory of Chet. This verse really means a lot to me... especially when i think of the awesome Love and Forgivness that God extends to us!  The chasm is far too wide
I never thought I'd reach the other side
But Your love never fails  You stay the same through the ages
Your love never changes
There maybe pain in the night but joy comes in the morning   ~peace out people~

Aaaahhhh.......

Mmmmmm.... nothing better on a cool, crisp morning than a hot cup of tea to clear the brain! :) The tangy sweet brew, or a breathtaking mint taste leaves you revitalized. Try it sometime!

A gorgeous song..... :)

Here is a rendition of "It is Well With My Soul", which happens to be one of my favorite songs ever! :) Listen to it and tell me what you think!

Hot Air Balloons

    Someday i wanna drift away in

a hot air balloon, and float away in the silence

with the

occasional whoosh of the hot air

rising.

Just me, and the stillness, 

and the balloon.

I want to float up by the clouds,

and look down and see the people

that look like little ants,

the cars busily speeding to their destinations.

the patchwork quilt of land stretching out beneath me,

the shimmering pools they call lakes.

its a different world up there cause its away from the earth,

just me, the stillness, and the

hot air balloon.
