Thank you God for Dreams

Over the years,

God has filled my life with many dreams and aspirations.

Some, by God's grace, I have achieved.

I wanted to go to college.

I did.

and yes to the surprise of many, including me, I graduated.

I hoped to get married and have a family.

again God gave me the desire of my heart.

God blessed me with a wonderful understanding family.

Some dreams over the years have changed. I'd hoped to have a house like this.

but it looks more like this.

Along the way, this dream, along with others, did change

because I realized that God had a better dream for me.

Thank you, God, that No matter how good my dreams are;

your dreams will always be better and bigger.

I dreamed of being a teacher, that is one of those dreams that God changed.

I still love teaching but I have to say I'm glad God changed that dream.

Thank you God For always giving us another dream, goal,

that we can strive for.

The dreams you give us are often bigger than we could ever imagine.

Dreams keep us pushing forward when we want to stop.

I believe God wants us to dream, aspire.

Thank you, God, for the dreams and aspirations you put within us.

Dreams inspired by God are the best dreams in the world.

They always bring satisfaction.

Thank you God for Leading us

Thank you God for how you lead us. Like a shepherd leading his sheep. Sometimes through the words you spoke in the Bible, your written word. at other times, it was the wise words from friends, coworkers,or neighbors spoken at just the right time. Still other times it was a gentle tug, a whisper to our heart to move in one direction or another; intuition or a sixth sense that one way or another was right or wrong Yet, when I listened and obeyed I found the way was clear, distinct and easy to follow. You never leave us to guess which way to go. ...

Grow Old Gracefully

I’d like to tell you about a lady I visited yesterday. She is ninety-five years young. She recently moved into nursing home. She asked one of the workers how many times she would have to walk around the outside of the building in order to walk a mile. She said the person told her about ten. Then she leaned in really close and whispered, “I walked around twelve just to be sure I walked a mile.” Hahahaha! What a lady! She loves to keep active, even in a nursing home. As we talked, I saw no anger or bitterness in her speech or actions. There was only a love for God, a heart of compassion, and a sense of humor. She has befriended the one "prickly pear" at the home because as she said, “I have to love her, so she knows Jesus loves her too.” Wow!!! I need to live like that! I want to show that much compassion for those around me that need Jesus. She loved to talk about God and what he was teaching her. ...

What’s That Smell?

To the one we are an aroma that brings death; to the other, an aroma that brings life. 2Corinthians 2:16 Last break! The shift was almost over. Then the unthinkable happened, this man appeared out of nowhere wanting to know where the flashlights were kept. As we were on our way to the flashlights, I noticed that this man had a very strong odor. I thought perhaps I could get in front of him so that the smell would not be as strong. That, however, was not to be either since; he insisted on keeping pace and walking right beside me. By the time we got to where the flashlights were; I was practically running just to keep ahead of him. I showed him the flashlights and made a hasty exit. If you’re like me, you shower and even put on perfume or cologne so that you will not stink. We are concerned that the smell coming from our body is not offensive to others. As I write this, I wonder if we are as concerned with our spiritual aroma as ...
