Some days go not as we have planned, Sometimes we slip and fall. We have to learn from our mistakes, The most proving lesson of all. Sometimes it’s better to learn alone, To teach yourself to stand. So you don’t live your entire life, Being fed by hand. When you fall, stand back up, Get on the road again. Push yourself and don’t look back, To places you have been. Days of hardship soon will pass, Troubled times will cease. So stand and finish up life’s race, And you will be at peace. Though you may feel your time is up, And...
In the midst of a field, Gorgeous wild flowers grow, Who wave at me as I pass, Fluttering in the wind to-and-fro. Cascading down from the mountainside, Sparkling water flows, I hear the sound of the waterfall crashing, Into the lake below.

The sky is like a sapphire, With bits of drifting clouds, I could gaze for hours, At the wonders I have found. As the wind blows, My hair flies all around, I... Full story
I recently heard a story about a pastor who was participating as a guest minister at a church. While standing at the entrance to the church with one of the head elders, he noticed a beat up car pull up and park and watched a frazzled lady get out of it. The pastor could tell by the look on her face that she didn’t normally attend church, and by the look of her clothes she has had a very difficult life. As she approached the door to enter the church, the head elder said to her, “Miss, we dress up for God here.” The woman...

“Personalized Christmas Ornaments” is what the sign read inside the trinket store. Excited about buying a personalized gift for her sister, my friend Jill browsed until she found just the right one and proceeded to the counter where the “artist” was waiting. “Can you personalize this ornament for me?” Jill asked with a smile.
