    "The simple things in life ...
    D says (26 Sep '11)

    The Healing
    * God gave me what I asked for - and oh, so very much more.
    He shared with me your "Light" and LOVE :) and opened that once closed door.
    * Tests and trials He said would come - but With the Lord, every battle's won.
    Whether it's close at hand, or distant as the setting sun.
    * He brings about each brand new day with Hope and Joy in Ease -
    and closes with Thanksgiving while the Heaven's are ablaze.
    * In each and every moment, I tell God 'Thank You' for my days.
    - jus'sayin' - We live in the shelter of God's almighty Grace.
    * His Healing touch is on you now, my friend~there's so much more for you to do.                                                                 For we have come together in prayer, upon bended knee; in Truth
    * The Holy Spirit moves within us, home of our Father's Blessed Peace
    Where the Fruits of the Holy Spirit, the power of Love; and childlike trust in our Lord,                                                          are manifest then released. 

    God Bless my Friends ~ I Love You.

...a simple comment or tone of voice can be harmful. One quick remark can tear down someones confidence and change things forever for them. You are so right Shirl, the small things truly matter.

Hi Shirl~ Thanks :) .... you seem to have a way of making me 'think' ...you know, I agree... Especially the small things :) Like just a Smile or a Touch,.... It Truly Is, 'The Thought That Counts' :)

as well, very beneficial...My friend brought this to my attention. The small "things" do matter.

Song of Solomon 2:15 says, "Take us the foxes, the little foxes, that spoil the vines: for our vines have tender grapes." Foxes sometime in search of food would enter into the grape orchards and devour the grapes and spoil the crop. However, the little foxes were too small to reach the grape bunches so they would chew on the vines and it would kill the whole vine. Instead of the farmer just losing his crop, he would lose his vine which was more disastrous. Spiritually some things we do or allow that we might think are little or insignificant can also be disastrous for us.

My Friend stopped by today... He asked where I've been...
"I had some work to finish ...and..I needed some time to think," I said.
"And, did you?" He asked.
"No"..
"Why not?" ~ He wanted to know ~

"I spent my time with another friend, whose Love, I now can show."

"...and time can do so much..." ~Unchained Melody

"I know that there is nothing better for men than to be happy and do good while they live." Eccl 3:12

And it's times like these we can't replace
It's times like these we must embrace
And even though it's bittersweet and brings us to our knees
It makes us who we are in times like these
The ice and snow give way to a new spring bloom
In the wake that hope and faith they will be home soon
A new day dawns as the good Lord shines from above
'Cause in the rubble and rust there remains a whole lotta love
And I was here watching it all go down
And I'll still be when it comes back around

And it's times like these we can't replace
It's times like these we must embrace
And even though it's bittersweet and brings us to our knees
It makes us who we are in times like these

It makes us who we are in times like these

The Wonderment of His Divine Glory and Riches ... so that we may have life and have it more abundantly and share His Caring with others. (Rock ~yea, talkin' 'bout YOU & what you do for people!) That we might Rejoice in The Lord, for His Glory ~~~ God has a plan !!!

~Jesus made sure of it!

"As far as I can see, God's plan makes an astonishing difference in living, growing things like trees and people.

while we are on the topic of stones.... I haven't been stoned for 60 days. It's getting to be the norm. Talk about enough energy to move mountains.... yep We all keep moving along at some point, hopefully with the grace of God.

stones on paper plates

we used paste made from flour and water ~ to glue stones on paper plates ~ beautiful stones....

D4evr's picture

Lately, I've heard a lot about "casting the first stone"  ....Here, at church, the video from ATL w/TI ... idk ...I guess we get a mental picture of someone actually physically 'throwing a stone'....Man, I  must admit ...that would be me!
1st, I visualize this big old 'stone' is filled with whatever 'burdens' I have not turned over to Christ...Auras reach others, it's inevitable. (like a pebble that's dropped in a pool, creates ever-widening rings, waves of motion.) I hold that cold and hardened 'chip' ....then, I throw it as far out into the lake as my strength on the wind, will carry it. ~”There, the weight's off my shoulders!  it's gone.”
2nd, 'Skipping pebbles' across still waters ... watching them jump and hop, making the waters  "Wake-Up"!!!  they Dance and play, even spit! ... no one cares though...it's just trying to hold a pebble, once lifeless on the ground, 'just so'...and watch, as it becomes an instrument of wonder, bringing motion & life, surprise & joy... !!!  almost like playing an instrument, or planting a garden.
3rd, I learned how to envision~smashing a boulder into small hunks of stone. "labeling" each fraction, attaching some aspect of 'stress-or' to it: then while facing away from the lake; hurl each segment over your shoulder into the water. Listening only to the Ker-plunk, as it 'hits' ~ knowing from the silence, it's vanished...
Sometimes we hear more clearly when our vision isn't the primary interpretor.
Mountains are composed of stone: cold, hard, motionless...kind of a waste...until they are moved by faith.
~peace~

Hi D. Good to hear from you :)

D4evr's picture

There are people who recognize ~ fruit by its scent ~ there are also those who must see, to believe... even God says so. In His time, He will open their eyes ~ just like Paul on the way to Damascus. But God chooses 'who' and some get angry because God didn't choose them for the task 'they chose'. For them I pray, that God calm and soothe their Spirits, embrace their sorrow and allign their will back into His. In Jesus' name I pray ~ that All will come to Know the beauty, power, might and compassion of our Holy Lord God~ who Lives and Reigns through All Eternety. Amen,
And this I Know, that Jesus is the only man in history to have shedd HIS BLOOD in obedience to His Father's Will, Choosing to Forgive Us Our Sins. .... I have not ... so who am I to judge? am I putting myself somewhere equal to the "Right" of Christ? ...... not me. I dont care about where i sit!, ... just Thankful I have the chance to accept the Invitation. ... I could loose That too.... Thank you, Jesus ... for loving me ~1st.

ps...when we ask God for Forgiveness, in Jesus' name,...He Forgives us. Our slate is clean
"Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us. For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord. " Romans 8:37-39
see? ...the 'past' is not mentioned ...why?/why not? ....Because God Erased It.

beautiful , it makes you realize andsmile , have faith , feel just how fragile we are to the world , how strong we can be when we use our sprit in determination.. you ever wonder if people can feel from far away the hurt the lonliness you see it in ones eyes ..and there is a yearning to help heal the hurt , thats why we laugh ,
have fun some do whatever it takes to be able to feel good and we only need to impress or make it right with one man jesus christ , i put my son , my father , my man, family friends , oh and hell yes the rock and roll jesus hehheheh luv that man, however I feel for everyone pick your poison in life ... no one is perfect, but i do indeed believe if one can open the heart and mind and truely live for peace .. and if you make mistakes you own up and move on , do it wrong make it right .. i have learned the most life lesonsgrowing up buy fucking up and royally.lol but im older now i wanna live for the lord, i want him to put my soul mind and body in synce and when you mesh that with someone or people you love and care for believe somewhat in the right ways .
i truely try and be graceious , and walk the walk i would have faith the lord has planned for me
do i sometimes dream or envision even wish and pray things were different .. definently
but everyday i wake up i have another day and chance to do something good make someones day ..
and the payoff i see it , the blessings everyday good and bad .
im glad you post about this ! i ;love the kid rock site always somebody here to make me feel better and think thanks

for me ... That's where "Jesus" Calls and i end... "HE is who I want to be like when I grow up :)
A very strong, weathered, and aged friend of our famly told me, his grand-father toldhim ..."Every head is a different world."
"When I look up, I seemyself"...HeavyD We are All God's creation, none less than...the moon and the stars...in the sky ... or rivers or rain or sunshine .... trees bend or they break... flowers come up again in Spring ...

I like that 24:05 point

MT 22:32 I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob? God is not the God of the dead, but of the living.

PS 150:1 Praise ye the LORD. Praise God in his sanctuary: praise him in the firmament of his power.

PS 150:2 Praise him for his mighty acts: praise him according to his excellent greatness.

PS 150:3 Praise him with the sound of the trumpet: praise him with the psaltery and harp.

PS 150:4 Praise him with the timbrel and dance: praise him with stringed instruments and organs.

PS 150:5 Praise him upon the loud cymbals: praise him upon the high sounding cymbals.

PS 150:6 Let every thing that hath breath praise the LORD. Praise ye the LORD.

PS 5:3 My voice shalt thou hear in the morning, O LORD; in the morning will I direct my prayer unto thee, and will look up.

I watched a sermon on U-Tube yesterday and today I will take the advice of the preacher. Im gonna write down all I ask of God after I give my honor, thanksgiving and forgivness of my sins to God.
