Some Rain Must Fall
 Although sometimes the rain must fall
And clouds hover near
There is a suuy day ahead
where skies are blue and clear
Those streams of sunbeams shining though
Should ease a troubled mind
For God gives us tomorrows
Where we leave the clouds behind
We must look past the dreary times
To those of hope and love
To days where all the showers are
Sweet blessings from above
When i read this poem, it meant a lot for i am praying for the sunshine for our B.B.Q Monday
love you all,,,Bonnie

BESS YOU, FRIEND
THANK YOU RIEKE FOR INSPIREING ME AGAIN
Bless you, friend for being there
When i was feeling blue
For your warm and thoughtful way
So much a part of you
Bless you friend, for words of cheer
When skies above were gray
You gave me hope and made me see
There'd come a brighter day
And skies again were blue
You came and shared my happiness
For you were happy too
For all the kindley things you've done
That proved your friendship true
Bless you friend, it means so much
To have a friend like you
This is for you rieke,,,my inspiration

It's Only A Quarter
SEVERAL YEARS AGO A PREACHER MOVED TO TOWN. SOME WEEKS SFTER HE ARRIVED, HE HAD OCCASION TO RIDE THE BUS FROM HOME TO DOWNTOWN. WHEN HE SAT DOWN HE DISCOVERED THAT THE DRIVER HAD ACCIDENTALLY GIVEN HIM A QUARTER TOO MUCH. IN CHANGE.
AS HE CONSIDERED WHAT TO DO, HE THOUGHT TO HIMSELF, YOU BETTER GIVE THE QUATER BACK. IT WOULD BE WRONG TO KEEP IT. THEN HE THOUGHT, OH, FORGET IT , ITS ONLY A QUATER. WHO WOULD WORRY ABOUT THIS LITTLE AMOUNT/? ANYWAY THE BUS COMPANY ALREADY GETS TOO MUCH FARES , THEY WILL NEVER MISS IT. ACCEPT. IT AS A GIFT FROM GOD AND KEEP QUIET.
WHEN HIS STOP CAME, HE PAUSED MOMENTARILY AT THE DOOR, THEN HE HANDED THE QUARTER TO THE DRIVER AND SAID, HERE , YOU GAVE ME TOO MUCH CHANGE.
THE DRIVER, WITH A SMILE , REPLIED, AREN,"T YOU THE NEW PREACHER IN TOWN? I HAVE BEEN THINKING LATELY ABOUT GOING TO WORSHIP SOMEWHERE. I JUST WANTED TO SEE WHAT YOU WOULD DO IF I GAVE YOU TOO MUCH CHANGE.
WHEN MY FRIEND STEPPED OFF THE BUS, HE LITERALLY GRABBED THE NEAREST LIGHT POLE AND HELD ON AND SAID, O GOD, I ALMOST SOLD YOUR SON FOR A QUATER.
WE ALSO ARE BEING WATCHED! PEOPLE WANT TO SEE IF THERE IS A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN US AND THE UNSAVED WORLD.
ALWAYS LIVE ,KNOWING JESUS AND EVERYONE ELSE IS WATCHING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

BEAUTY
Beauty is like a summer rain, or a morning dew,
Love is like the sunshine, even as the sky so blue
Hope is like a foundation, in which all dreams are built,
A solid rock to withstand the strain, over and over again
Beauty, Love, and Hope are all the ingregients for a pure heart.
Take time to see these simple things and they will generate your spark

A CLUTTERED SPRIT
Hurts of the past become entwined,
They clutter our vision and destroy our mind
Once in a awhile, we take them out
Dust them off, and put them high upon a shelf
As time passes so quickly, you can see
They have come back to haunt oneself
We may run into an old friend
An unkind word is spoken and doom sets in
Then clutter, once more ,is ours again
Clouded memories of deciet, lies, and lost trust
Belong to Jesus and need to be healed
For, an inner peace will come if only you're willing
To let it all go and let love be instilled
The Great Physician will come and set you free
The past is over and all of its hurts and doubts are gone
A new life's bedinning and a brand new dawn
Please , let go of the past and let God heal you
He can and will restore all the beauty of life
And make you brand new

Praise Him By the Hour
Oh, praise Him by the hour!
yes, glorify His name
in the warmth of the sun
or in the cool of rain
praise Him! never ceasing!
On us he won't give up
He wipes away each tear
And overflows our cup
cast not the first stone , my friend
when someone goes astray
when a brother or sister slips and falls
lift him up, instead, and pray
So many things divide us
But love's the great uniter
and blessed is he who can maintain an attuide of LOVE

Praise God
I just want to talk about last night. It was Wed, evening prayer meeting & we drive several miles to go to the church that the Lord has called us to attend, So we have been not going on Wed, night prayer meeting, Well the pastor called & said that the people wanted to know if he brought the people in the church van , could we have it at our house. . They came & we had the most wonderful prayer meeting. I thank God for the amazing things that He does. I ask God to bless all those wonderful people that made the trip. Our God is so Good, . Bongirl

Praise the lord
I went to work for a lady that is blind & she gets a check from the V.A every month to pay for her home health care. We'll ,the company she had before me, Kept taking her money thru automatic withdrawal. After many calls & the lady so upset, I told her we are just going to pray & put this in Gods hands. The lady is so sweet & wonderful, That i would do anything for her for nothing. Well, every day we prayed & today, the Lord let the check come to her house thru the mail. I guess they didn't trust the other company, Anyway, She called & half the town could hear us praiseing The Lord & shouting, The Lord is so awesome, All we have to do is pray & wait in FAITH, Sometimes its the waiting upon the Lord, That shakes our FAITH. We must always wait upon our wonderful Lord Jesus Christ, He will never let you down. Praise Him always. He will never let you down.

Birthdays
To start out i will tell you this story. My pastors daughter & one of my grandaughters was born 3 days apart. Starting on there 1st birthday, We had our daughter& so-in -law & grandbaby & our pastor & his wife & there baby ,& there babys grandma all at our house for there birthday party & dinner,Well, every year we would ask if they still wanted to do this, each year they did, So it became a yearly event. Last year, just 3 weeks before the event, The other grandma was killed in a car wreck. But they still wanted to come, because she always looked forward to this every year, & was already talking about it all the time. It was kind of a sad time last year with lots of tears & laughter. Well this tear the girls turn 15, & yes they want to have there same party & dinner, So this coming up Sunday Mar.2nd We will be gathering again. I praise the Lord for the simplest things in life, bring so much pleasure. Thank you Lord, Can't wait for Sunday . You see we did live in the same town, But then we moved, My daughter moved & They all make the trip for this wonderful time together. We all love the Lord so much!! & we always will remember Arlene the other Grandma in heaven looking down & smiling, Bongirl
