Our problem is - we pray for things but don't recognize the answer when it comes. God has a purpose in all things, He also has a process. As you get to know Him better you begin to recognize both. Here's how it works: you ask God for strength and He allows you to go through times of testing. You ask for wisdom and you get to deal with problems that require solutions. You ask for success and He gives you the ability to work - not necessarily harder, but smarter. You ask for favor and He gives you responsibility. Salvation is a gift, but patience is a reward for overcoming. So stay where God has you today and learn the lessons He wants to teach you; tomorrow you'll be glad you did!

Power of Attitude
Power of Attitude
Our lives are not determined by what happens to us, but by how we react to what happens; not by what life brings to us, but by the attitude we bring to life. A positive attitude causes a chain reaction of positive thoughts, events and outcomes creating extraordinary results.

Never give away your power to other peoples opinions... (Remember!) What God thinks about you is much more important than what others think about you...

The Poem
THE POEM
I knelt to pray but not for long,
I had too much to do.
I had to hurry and get to work
For bills would soon be due.
So I knelt and said a hurried prayer,
And jumped up off my knees.
My Christian duty was now done
My soul could rest at ease.....
All day long I had no time
To spread a word of cheer
No time to speak of Christ to friends,
They'd laugh at me I'd fear.
No time, no time, too much to do,
That was my constant cry,
No time to give to souls in need
But at last the time, the time to die.
I went before the Lord,
I came, I stood with downcast eyes.
For in his hands God! Held a book;
It was the book of life.
God looked into his book and said'
Your name I cannot find
I once was going to write it down...
But never found the time'

I Moved
Can't remember if I told you that:
I have moved out from 1 Beggars Alley, located at 2 Poverty Lane at thecorner of Bleak and Buster Circle.
As of today, I have a brand new home. My new address is Living Well on 3 Abundance Drive, located at thecorner of Blessings Street and Prosperity Peak.
No longer will I allowmyself to travel on Begging Peter to Pay Paul Route, located at a DeadEnd Intersection called I Don't Have, it connects with BorrowersJunction.
I no longer hang out at Failure's Place, near Excuses Avenue, next toProcrastination Point. I've moved to an upscale community called HigherHeights with unlimited potential and opportunities for me to succeed.
Look at me, Each day that I'm awake, I am thankful that I'm a product ofmy new environment, all of my clothes are tailor made, I'm dressed inlife's finest, let me introduce you to them : Devine Favor, Conceive,Believe, Act on Faith, Be Persistent, and Always Be Prepared to Achieve.
Life is good because God is good!! Care to change your address? There are many vacancies!
If you're ever in the neighborhood, be sure to stop by and visit me.

Eyes
Do you know the relationship between your two eyes?
They blink together, they move together,
they cry together,
they see things together and
they sleep together,
EVEN THOUGH THEY NEVER SEE EACH OTHER...
Friendship should be just like that!!!
