Reach Out For Him {By Anna Lee Winters}

When your days are darkest,
The whole world seems bleak and bare,
Just reach out your hand
And you will find him there.
When you are afraid or lonely,
Need someone to really care,
Just reach out your hand,
And you will find him there.
When your thoughts run rampant,
You think, “Can this be fair?”
Just reach out your hand
And you will find him there.
Although your steps may falter,
As you climb life’s winding stair,
Just reach out your hand
And you will find him there.
And then when you travel on again,
With many years to spare,
Remember, that when you reach out,
He is always there.

Ask and it will be given to you, seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you  {Matthew 7 V 7}

The X Factor

The X Factor Top 5

Last night  saw each contestant on the X Factor performing two songs, one of which they had only twenty-four hours to prepare for.  There was nothing really spectacular about last night’s performances.  The contestants more or less held their own.  My top picks of the night  are Melanie Amaro followed by Josh Krajcik.  Rachael Crow is still very much in the competition.  The two contestants who I believe will be in the bottom two are Chris Rene and Marcus Canty.  Marcus Canty is a great singer but he has so far been unable to get the votes of America.  He has been in the bottom two twice and there is the possibility that if he finds himself once more in the bottom two, he is going to go home tonight.

Thought For Today {M. Williams}

The act of helping others should arise as a result of a desire from the heart and not because we feel pity, otherwise we would have failed to grasp the true understanding of kindness which then becomes meaningless”

Thought For Today

There are six things the Lord hates- no seven things he detests: haughty eyes, a lying tongue, hands that kill the innocent, a heart that plots evil, feet that race to do wrong, a false witness who pours out lies, a person who sows discord in a family.

Monday Night Raw

Randy Orton continues to allow Wade Barrett to play mind games with him and once again the distraction from Wade Barrett caused him to  lose his match with The Miz in a count out last night on Monday Night Raw.  John Laurinaitis, according to Punk, is one of the most boring general managers and I have to agree with him.  Where excitement is concerned John Laurinaitis is clueless.  Last night John Cena once again displayed that caring part of his personality in his attempt to help Zack Rider to get a chance at a title match.  It was somewhat hilarious that at the end of the match with Mark Henry it took Rider a while to realize that he had won the match.  Now on the subject of Kevin Nash; I can understand giving him a match, but against Santino Marella?  Why wasn’t  a more evenly matched opponent  found for that match?  After the singing of the contract C M Punk gave The Miz and Alberto Del Rio a preview of what to expect at their TLC Paper View Match.  Will Punk be able to hold on to the title?  We will find out the answer to that question at TLC!

Lord, Give Me Faith {By Phyllis C Michael}

Help me to walk with patience, Lord
Help me watch and pray;
I know that You have heard me cry,
The sun will shine some day.

Help me to seek Your will, dear Lord.
O, keep me brave and true;
I know not what is best for me.
Send faith to see me through.

Help me to walk each step with hope
Though I can’t see the light;
Lord, take my hand and lead the way;
Oh, guide me day and night!

Hour by hour, Lord, give me faith,
Faith that never ask why;
Whatever it is Lord, help me say,
“Safe in your care am I.”

Thought For Today

 

Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all H is benefits; He pardons all your iniquities, He heals all your ills.  He redeems your life from destruction, He crowns you with kindness and compassion.   {Psalms 103 V 2-4}

 

Live Life To The Fullest {By Shirley M Powell}

One never knows what tomorrow will bring,
So live life to the fullest today.
Enjoy the treasures that God has given
And never give into dismay.

Don’t let dark clouds get you down,
Be happy and carefree in mind.
Each cloud has a silver lining
That you must search for and find.

Always look for the good in others
And life will be happier for you.
Goodness and love will always make
Dark skies seem brighter and blue.

Love each other as God has loved you
And peace will be yours to share.
Know that whatever tomorrow brings
Will find you safe in God’s care.

Jamaican Jokes

Sunday morning in Bronx, New York. The church is packed and the devil decides to pay a visit.
The doors burst open; a black cloud rolls in with the devil in its midst. People jump out of the pews and run outdoors, screaming – all except for two people. One is the Pastor, the other is a Jamaican.

Satan is a bit perplexed. He points to the Pastor and says, “You! I can understand why you didn’t run away, you are in your Lord’s house, you preach against me everyday and you aren’t afraid of me.
But YOU (points to the Jamaican), why didn’t you run out scared like everyone else?”

The Jamaican crosses one leg over the other and replies, “See one, see de other! I been married to you sister for 36 years!
