Subject: FW: Tyler Perry - Truly Grateful   

I appreciate everyone one of you for being in my life..


This is from Tyler Perry

This morning I awoke and was so frustrated about all of the stuff that
I'm dealing with in trying to get this studio open. I was about to open
my mouth and start complaining when I remembered something that happened
to me about a year ago.

I was walking to my car when this woman who appeared to be homeless
Started walking towards me. I'm ashamed to say this but I thought, "I
Don't feel like being hustled today." Then I got quickly convicted. I
felt guilty so I started digging in my pocket for some money. As she got
Closer I noticed that she had the kindest eyes that I had ever seen. As
I was reaching into my pocket she started to speak. I thought, "Here
Goes the sales pitch." She said "Excuse me sir, I need some shoes. Can
you help me?" My eyes filled with water because I remember being out on
the streets and having only one pair of run over shoes.  I was taken
aback for a second.

I took her inside the studio and had my wardrobe people find shoes in
her size. As she put the shoes on she started crying, praising God and
Thanking Jesus, and saying, "My feet are off the ground!  My feet are
off the ground!" Several of the wardrobe people started crying. I was
crying. But I never forgot those word. "My feet are off the ground!"

I thought, "Wow! All she wanted was some shoes."  She quickly
disappeared and never asked me for a dime. I realized that I still had
The money in my hand so I went out looking for her. She was gone just
That quick so I looked all around the neighborhood for her. I found her
Standing on a corner looking down at her shoes, still crying. I was so
Touched. I asked her how she had gotten homeless. She told me that she
had AIDS and that she was waiting to get into a shelter.  She said that
her family had turned their backs on her and that she had no place to
Go, but she knew that God would make a way for her. I said to myself,
"He just did." Her faith and her praise moved me.

I took her to a nearby hotel and put her up until she was able to get on
her feet.  I had someone that worked for me to check on her from time to
Time and to make sure that she had food and clothes. After about a month
Or so we lost touch, but I never forgot her.

This past summer I was shooting "Daddy's Little Girls" and this woman
Walks up to me smiling. I didn't recognize her face, but her eyes were
Familiar.  She had on a really nice dress and her hair was done.  It was
Her!  She told me that the little help that I had given her had changed
Her life. She was in a house now and doing very well.

I said all of that to say this. After I met this woman, every time I
think about complaining and mumbling I remember, "My feet are off the
ground!"

I wanted to share this with you just to let you know that when I say
that I am thankful for you, I mean it. And when I say that you are a
Blessing to me, I mean it.  We take so much for granted sometimes that I
just wanted all of you to know that I am grateful to God for you
Everyday.  Thank you for being in my life

Although things are not perfect
Because of trial or pain
Continue in thanksgiving
Do not begin to blame
Even when the times are hard
Fierce winds are bound to blow
God is forever able
Hold on to what you know
Imagine life without His love
J oy would cease to be
Keep thanking Him for all the things
Love imparts to thee
Move out of "Camp Complaining"
No weapon that is known
On earth can yield the power
Praise can do alone
Quit looking at the future
Redeem the time at hand
Start every day with worship
To "thank" is a command
Until we see Him coming
Victorious in the sky
We'll run the race with gratitude
X alting God most high
Y es, there'll be good times and yes some will be bad, but...
Z ion waits in glory...where none are ever sad!

Racial Slur
 
The following scene took place on a BA flight between Johannesburg and
London.
 
 
This is a true story.
 
A White woman, about 50 years old, was seated next to a Black man.
Obviously disturbed by this, she called the air Hostess. "Madam, what
is the matter," the Hostess asked. "You obviously do not see it then?" she
responded. "You placed me next to a Black man. I do not agree to
sit next to someone from such a repugnant group. Give me an alternative
seat." "Be calm please," the Hostess replied. "Almost all the places
on this flight are taken. I will go to see if another seat is available."
 
The Hostess wentaway and then came back a few minutes later. "Madam,
just as I thought, there are no other available seats in the Economy
class. I spoke to the Captain and he informed me that there is also no
seats in the Business class. All the same, we still have one seat in the
First class."
 
Before the woman could say anything, the Hostess continued: "It is not
usual for our company to permit someone from the Economy class to sit
in the First class. However, given the circumstances, the Captain feels
that it would be scandalous to make someone sit next to someone so
disgusting." She turned to the Black guy, and said, "Therefore, Sir, if
you would like to, please collect your hand luggage, a seat awaits you in
First class."
 
At that moment, the other passengers who were shocked by what they had
just witnessed stood up and applauded.

I Am a "KEPT" Woman.

You see, there were a few times when I thought I would lose my mind,
but GOD

KEPT
me sane.
(Isa. 26:3)

There were times when I thought I could go no longer, but the LORD
KEPT
me moving.
(Gen 28:15)

At times, I've wanted to lash out at those whom I felt had done me
wrong, but the LORD
KEPT
my mouth shut.
(Psa. 13)

Sometimes, I think the money just isn't enough, but GOD has helped me to
KEEP
the lights on, the water on, the car paid, the house paid,
etc.
(Matt. 6:25-34)

When I thought I would fall, HE
KEPT
me up. When I thought I was weak, HE KEPT
me strong!
(I Pet. 5:7, Matt. 11:28-30)

I could go on and on and on, but I'm sure you hear me!

Praise the Lord and pass the filet mignon! I'm Blessed to be
KEPT!
Are you, or do you know a
KEPT
Woman?

If so pass it on to her to let her know she is KEPT!

UNDERSTANDING IS PRODUCED BY THE WORD OF GOD. WHAT YOU UNDERSTAND YOU CAN HAVE FAITH IN
IT`S SIMPLEST ,YET MOST POWERFUL ANALOGY IN THE WORLD
if you put all of God`s characteristics into a pot
and boiled them dowN ,they would boil down to one all=encompassing element of his power and divine nature: LOVE
