The Lord's Prayer


Our Father,
who art in heaven,
hallowed be thy name.

Thy Kingdom come,
thy will be done,
on earth as it is in heaven

Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our trespasses,
as we forgive those who trespass against us.

And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.
For thine is the kingdom,
the power and the glory.
for ever and ever.

Amen

Because He Lives

He came to love, heal, and forgive.
He lived and died to buy my pardon,
An empty grave is there to prove my Savior lives.
Because He lives, I can face tomorrow.
Because He lives, All fear is gone.
Because I know He holds the future,
And life is worth the living just because He lives.
How sweet to hold a newborn baby,
And feel the pride and joy he gives.
But greater still the calm assurance,
This child can face uncertain days because He lives.
Because He lives, I can face tomorrow.
Because He lives, All fear is gone.
Because I know He holds the future,
And life is worth the living just because He lives.
And then one day I'll cross the river,
I'll fight life's final war with pain.
And then as death gives way to victory,
I'll see the lights of glory and I'll know He lives.
Because He lives, I can face tomorrow.
Because He lives, All fear is gone!
Because I know He holds the future
And life is worth the living just because He lives!


Sometimes people are put through tests. Those tests make us stronger and prepare us for the battles we have to fight. There are all kinds of battles.
Everyone has a unique role in God's plan. One that no one else can play. I am sure you will do what you are meant to do.
Have Faith. No matter what lies ahead. Hold onto your Faith.

THAT'S GOD!
Have you ever been just sitting there and all of a sudden you feel like
doing something nice for someone you care for?

THAT'S GOD!
He talks to you through the Holy Spirit.

Have you ever been down and out and nobody seems
to be around for you to talk to?
THAT'S GOD!
He wants you to talk to Him.


Have you ever received something wonderful that you didn't even ask for?
THAT'S GOD!
He knows the desires of your heart.

Have you ever been in a situation and you had no clue

how it is going to get better, but now you look back on it?
THAT'S GOD!
He passes us through tribulation to see a brighter day.

In all we do, if we remember to give total thanks to God, our blessings
will continue to be multiplied...

And I count you among my greatest blessings!
Thinking of you and
hope it brightens your day!


Hope
Hope is a word

that every
hurting heart
understands.


Hope shines
brighter than
the brightest star
on the darkest night.


Faith is bigger than the highest mountain.
And God is greater than any obstacle in your path.
Anything can be accomplished by those who fully
put their hearts into it.

The time to start is now
the place to start is here.


May hope cast its special
light upon your path and God
bless everything you touch in the
hours, days, and moments
still to come.

Pray

"WHEN I SAY, "I AM A CHRISTIAN"

When I say, "I am a Christian"
I'm not shouting, "I’ve been saved!"
I'm whispering, "I get lost!
That's why I chose this way"

When I say, "I am a Christian"
I don't speak with human pride
I'm confessing that I stumble—
Needing God to be my guide

When I say, "I am a Christian"
I'm not trying to be strong
I'm professing that I'm weak
And pray for strength to carry on

When I say, "I am a Christian"
I'm not bragging of success
I'm admitting that I've failed
And cannot ever pay the debt

When I say, "I am a Christian"
I don't think I know it all
I submit to my confusion
Asking humbly to be taught

When I say, "I am a Christian"
I'm not claiming to be perfect
My flaws are all too visible
But God believes I'm worth it

When I say, "I am a Christian"
I still feel the sting of pain
I have my share of heartache,
Which is why I seek His name

When I say, "I am a Christian"
I do not wish to judge
I have no authority,
I only know I'm loved

Faith Conquers All

Faith conquers all,Faith conquers all.Remember the words of our Savior,Who told us that faith conquers all.If a child looks to you for guidance,And you're there when he's fearful and calls.Give him your hand - reassure him,And show him that faith conquers all.

When faced with a new situation,And cowed by the height of the wall.Climb up and bravely reach over,Be confident, for faith conquers all.When others share with you their troubles,And ask for your help, lest they fall.Do not question if you can help them,Just pray and know faith conquers all.If you've failed in some self-endeavor,And you feel discouraged and small.Keep trying over and over,You'll do it, for faith conquers all.

Forgive the person who hurt you,As fast as you can - do not stall.God will help you forgive him,Remember that faith conquers all.Don't claim to have all the answers,Before you can walk, you must crawl.Keep asking, and searching, and seeking,Our Lord has said faith conquers all.When you come to the end of your journey,And you stand in the big banquet-hall.You'll be greeted there by the Master,He's proof that your faith conquered all.
Faith conquers all,Faith conquers all.Remember the words of our Savior,Who told us that faith conquers all.
