Not sure what to say?

There are so many things in this life,
That makes our tears to fall.
But we can always say to ourselves,
It will get better after all!

No matter what our worries may be,
We know they will soon be gone.
But others will be there to take their place,
Until we leave here and move on!

But until then we can know,
Life will always give us pain.
But, if we ask Jesus into our heart,
You know we have Heaven to gain!

We have many days filled with joy....

Hello Family of Mrs. Eva Spicely Hobbs,

If God Should Speak


"Our Father which art in heaven..."

--- Yes?

Don't interrupt me. I'm praying.

--- But you called me.

Called you? I didn't call you. I'm praying.

"Our Father which art in heaven"...

--- There you did it again.

Did What?

--- Called me. You said, "Our Father which art in heaven." Here I am. What's on your mind?

But I didn't mean anything by it. I was, you know, just saying my prayers for the day. I...

The Table Cloth
The brand new pastor and his wife, newly assigned to their first ministry, to reopen a church in urban Brooklyn, arrived in early October excited about their opportunities. When they saw their church, it was very run-down and needed much work. They set a goal to have everything done in time to lead their first service on Christmas Eve.

They worked hard, repairing pews, plastering walls, painting, etc.; and on Dec. 18 were ahead of schedule and just about finished. On...

That Man From Galilee
Before his love came to me
I was tossed about like the rolling sea
Without direction, completely void
Until his love brought peace and Joy.

Who is this man who looks at me
With eyes so soft and tender?
He seems so strong and mighty
But his love towards me is gentle.
It is this love that sets my heart free,
This wonderful man from Galilee

What does he see when he looks at me?
He seems as if he knows me.
Does he see the person...

My thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. May your memories bring you comfort.

No Charge
The cup of God's mercy is boundless
At His table each morning it stands
Offered to all, freely given
Unconditionally, with no demands

The Father in love has provided
Grace sufficient for each day anew
Come to the Holy of holies
There partake of this gift given you

His care for His children eternal
Not by merit, for none could afford
His matchless love everlasting
Yet, each owns the heart of the Lord

The fountain of blessing flows...

His Tender Mercy
If not for our Savior's tender mercy,
Tell me. Where would my soul be?
It would be a lost and lonely vessel,
On a deep and endless sea.

My soul would be like the sunshine,
Without a place to shine;
Or, a beautiful song without a tune,
That's lacking words that rhyme.

My soul would be as the midnight sky,
With no stars to shine above;
Like a sparrow, with a broken wing,
Or, a songless turtle dove.

It would be an empty...

"When you are sorrowful look again in your heart, and you shall see that in truth you are weeping for that which has been your delight."
