WE REMBER 9/11

Left standing amid the rubble at Ground Zero, the cross is also a symbol of hope for a nation devastated in the last half-century by moral decline and court rulings that displace God from public life. And while our nation has yet to learn all the lessons of 9/11, Dr. Kennedy harbors hope for our land. “I believe America can be reclaimed,” he said. “I believe that this nation can be brought back to God.”

Maya Angelou Poem

BEAUTIFUL CHRISTIAN SISTER
by Maya Angelou

'A woman's heart should be so hidden in Christ
that a man should have to seek Him first to find her.'

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not shouting 'I'm clean livin,'
I'm whispering 'I was lost, Now I'm found and forgiven.'

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I don't speak of this with pride.
I'm confessing that I stumble and need Christ to be my guide.

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not trying to be strong.
I'm professing that I'm weak and need His strength to carry on.

When I say.. 'I am a Christian' I'm not bragging of success.
I'm admitting I have failed and need God to clean my mess.

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not claiming to be perfect,
My flaws are far too visible, but God believes I am worth it.

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I still feel the sting of pain...
I have my share of heartaches, so I call upon His name.

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not holier than thou,
I'm just a simple sinner Who received God's good grace, somehow!

Pretty is as Pretty does... but beautiful is just plain beautiful!
TODAY IS BEAUTIFUL CHRISTIAN SISTERS DAY - TAG; YOU'RE IT!
I'm supposed to send this to BEAUTIFUL WOMEN, and you are one of them!!!
If you share this with other women, you will boost another woman's self esteem,
and she will know that you care about her.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JEFF!!!!!!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY CRAZY HUSBAND!!!

LUCKY ESCAPE

A German couple had a lucky escape after their light aircraft hit a 380,000 volt power line and then hung upside down from a wheel for nearly three hours.

"They had a very, very lucky accident," said police officer Edmund Martin at the scene in Durach, southern Germany.

Emergency services freed the pair suspended 20 metres from the ground late on Sunday with a hydraulic lift after a helicopter rescue was ruled out as too dangerous.

The couple suffered only minor injuries.

There were concerns that increasingly gusty winds would throw the plane to the ground.

The pilot of the plane misjudged his approach on landing, clipping the high-tension cables.

With fuel leaking "everywhere", a police spokesman told the British Telegraph newspaper it was a "tense situation".

"The occupants remained in radio contact with the ground throughout but you can imagine that their psychological condition worsened as the clock ticked on," he reportedly said.

"We considered a helicopter rescue but it was ruled out because the downdraft of the rotors would have sent the plane crashing to the ground.

The couple were treated at a local hospital for shock before being released, the Telegraph said.

THE SECRET

The Secret
One day, one friend asked another,
'How is it that you are always so happy?
You have so much energy,
and you never seem to get down.'


With her eyes smiling,she
'I know the Secret!'
'What secret is that?'
To which she replied,
'I'll tell you all about it,
but you have to promise to
share the Secret with others.'



'The Secret is this:
I have learned there is little I can do
in my life that will make me truly happy
I must depend on God to make
me happy and to meet my needs.
When a need arises in my life,
I have to trust God to supply
according to HIS riches.
I have learned most of the time
I don 't need half of what I think I do.
He has never let me down.
Since I learned that 'Secret' I am happy.'



The questioner's first thought was,
'That's too simple!'
But upon reflecting over her own life
she recalled how she thought a bigger house
would make her happy, but it didn't!
She thought a better paying job
would make her happy, but it hadn't.
When did she realize her greatest happiness?
Sitting on the floor with her grandchildren,
playing games, eating pizza or reading a
story,a simple gift from God.



Now you know it too!
We can't depend on people to make us happy.
Only GOD in His infinite wisdom can do that.
Trust HIM!
And now I pass the Secret on to you!
So once you get it, what will you do?



YOU have to tell someone the Secret, too!
That GOD in His wisdom will take care of YOU!
But it's not really a secret...
We just have to believe it and do it..
Really trust God!


Just Pass It On!
