We Help Angels Unaware 7/2/2008
It was a rainy night in New Orleans; At a bus station in the town, I watched a young girl weeping As her baggage was taken down.
It seems she'd lost her ticket Changing buses in the night. She begged them not to leave her there With no sign of help in sight.
The bus driver had a face of stone And his heart was surely the same. "Losing your ticket's like losing cash money, "
He ...

Follow Me 6/22/2008
Years I have wandered to find my wife and with that I would fill my life.
Years I have walked a beaten path To find none other than creatures at best
Living their lives without a doubt non disturbed at my searching for someone to see the best that I have to give to thee
In my working days and my sleepless night I feel closeness by the quiet that ...

It Takes Courage: 6/21/2008
It takes courage To refrain from gossip When others delight in it, To stand up for the absent person Who is being abused. It takes courage To live honestly Within your means, And not dishonestly On the means of others. It takes courage To be a REAL man or a TRUE woman, To hold fast to your ideals When it causes you To be looked upon As strange and peculiar. It takes courage To be talked about, ...

Death Of An Innocent 6/17/2008

I know I did the right thing, Mom, I know you are always right. Now the party is finally ending, Mom, As everyone is driving out of sight. ...

We can turn our trials to triumphs and help others along the way. after all our tears have disappeared, God will use us every day.

Remember These Words: 6/4/2008
Don't let go of hope. Hope gives you the strength to keep going when you feel like giving up.
Don't ever quit believing in yourself. As long as you believe you can, you will have a reason for trying.
Don't let anyone hold your happiness in their hands; hold it in yours, so it will always be within you reach.
Don't measure success or failure by material wealth, but by ...

A 's Prayer: 5/30/2008
Dear God, are You still awake? Have You got a minute or two? You're pretty good at understanding, And I really need to talk to You.
You see, Mommy came to tuck me in, Like she does every night. I was trying to play a trick on her, Since she can't see without the light.
I was going to close my eyes And pretend to be asleep. But when I heard her crying, I didn't dare let out a ...

Hwy 109, Grab A Tissue 5/28/2008
A drunken man in an Oldsmobile they said had run the light. That caused the six-car pileup on 109 that night.
When broken bodies lay about and blood was everywhere, The sirens screamed out eulogies, for death was in the air.
A mother, trapped inside her car, was heard above the noise, Her plaintive plea near split the air, 'Oh, God, please spare my boys!'
She fought to ...

When 5/24/2008
When I am lonely and Perhaps I feel despair, Let not my ailing heart forget That YOU hear every prayer. Remind me that no matter what I do or fail to do, There still is hope for as long as I have FAITH in YOU. Let not my eyes be blinded by Some folly I commit, But help me to regret my wrong And make amends for it. Inspire me to put my fears Upon a hidden shelf, And in the future try not to Feel ...

Wait: 5/22/2008
Desperately, helplessly, longingly, I cried, Quietly, patiently, lovingly God replied. I pled and I wept for a clue to my fate, And the Master so gently said, ", you must wait."
"Wait? You say, wait! " my indignant reply.
"Lord, I need answers, I need to know why! Is your hand shortened? Or have you not heard? By Faith, I have asked, and am claiming your Word.

Through A 's Eye 5/20/2008
The world is an adventure, there's so many things to see, the search for buried treasure, climbing high up in a tree.
Finding shells along the seashore, playing marbles in the sand, skipping stones across a pond, throwing as far as you can.
Playing a game of hide and seek, way back out in the woods, pretending your a robber, and stealing all the goods.
Wading barefoot ...

I Know Something Good About You: 5/18/2008
Wouldn't this old world be better, If the folks we meet would say: I know something good about you, And then treat us just that way!
Wouldn't it be fine and dandy, If each hand-clasp warm and true Carried with it this assurance I know something good about you!
Wouldn't things here be more pleasant, If the good that's in us all Were the only things about us That folks bothered to ...

One 5/16/2008
One song can spark a moment, One flower can wake the dream. One tree can start a forest, One bird can herald spring.
One smile begins a friendship, One handclasp lifts a soul. One star can guide a ship at sea, One word can frame the goal.
One vote can change a nation, One sunbeam lights a room. One candle wipes out darkness, One laugh will conquer gloom.
One step must ...

Mother's Love: 5/8/2008
Her love is like an island in life's ocean, vast and wide A peaceful, quiet shelter From the wind, the rain, the tide. 'Tis bound on the north by Hope, By Patience on the West, By tender Counsel on the South And on the East by Rest. Above it like a beacon light Shine Faith, and Truth, and Prayer; And thro' the changing scenes of life I find a haven there.

The Heart Of A Woman 5/2/2008
They smile when they want to scream. They sing when they want to cry. They cry when they are happy And laugh when they are nervous.
They fight for what they believe in. They stand up against injustice. They don't take "no" for an answer When they believe there is a better solution.
They go without new shoes So their can have them. They go to the doctor With a frightened friend. ...

I did today what I always tell you, When you are in need of someone, Think of a friend.
I felt alone, I needed comfort, I needed a friend so, I thought of you.
No smile on my face, no joy in my heart, No one to turn to so, I thought of you.
I needed someone to talk to, someone to listen, As I talked to myself I remembered so, I thought of you.
A friend is what ...

Drop a Pebble in the Water: 4/25/2008
Drop a pebble in the water, just a splash, and it is gone; But there is half a hundred ripples circling on and on and on, Spreading, spreading from the center, flowing on out to sea. And there is no way of telling where the end is going to be.
Drop a pebble in the water; in a minute you will forget, But there are little waves a-flowing and there are ripples circling yet, And ...
