HOMILY OF LOVE 1/17/2007
~quoted from my friend's blog, just thought of sharing
it here!
When you think of your past love, you view the
past as a failure. But when you find a new love,
you view the past as a teacher. In the game of
love, it doesn’t really matter who won or lost.
What is important is you know when to hold on and
when to let go! You will know you really love
someone ...

I know, I've been there! 1/5/2007
IF OTHERS HAVE NO FAITH IN YOU it's hard for you to have
faith in yourself, sometimes even in the Lord!--I know, I've been there! When you feel no
one else loves or trusts you, you think maybe God doesn't
either & you want to quit. But if someone shows you the
love & faith of God, it inspires you to respond in a new
effort to succeed!...

a good Christian woman, yet they try to bed her quicker than
a worldly man. Do you want a true Christian woman or do you

People say they want happiness yet when they create chaos
in a relationship, instead of repenting, they defend their
