Dear God....
It is just me again.
You know I have this group of friends
That I need you to take care of and watch over.
They are not from my town,
And most are not even in the same state/province,
In fact there are some that live in a different country.
They are scattered all over the world.
I met them on the Internet.
We send e-mails to each other,
And some I have even spoken to on the phone,
But most of them, we will never meet face to face,
However there are a few
That I have been lucky enough to share a real hug with.
It does not matter if we have met
Or not these people are my friends.
There is so much going on in the world,
And it scares me,
You see I care about these friends that I have met,
And God that is why I am asking you
T o please watch over them and protect them.
I would never have imagined that
I could care and even love someone
That I have only met online.
The truth is loving and truly caring about a person
Begins in the heart, and it stays inside of the heart.
I ask you God to give my friends
Health, happiness and peace,
Please take care of them, and guide them.
Through the Internet
I have been so blessed to have found friends
From all over the world.
I have learned that although some of us
Have different beliefs and we live differently, ..
We are so much alike,
All hoping for the same things in life,
True happiness.
Please God,
Bless each one of these friends
That have touched my life in one way or another.
Forgive those God that have hurt others,
Help them learn the true meaning of
Love and Friendship.
I know that each person
That I have met through the Internet
Has been placed in my path for a reason,
So I ask you once again God,
Protect them, guide them,
Keep them safe, love them and
Bless them throughout the Day,Week,
Month And Year,
In Jesus Name.
A little boy wanted to meet God.
He knew it was a long trip to where God
lived, so he packed his suitcase with a bag of potato chips and a six-pack of root beer
and started his journey.
When he had gone about three blocks,
he met an old woman. She was sitting in
the park, just staring at some pigeons.
The boy sat down next to her and opened his suitcase.
He was about to take a drink from
his root beer when he noticed that the old lady
looked hungry, so he offered her some chips.
She gratefully accepted it and smiled at him.
Her smile was so pretty that the
boy wanted to see it again, so he
offered her a root beer. Again,
she smiled at him. The boy was
delighted! They sat there all afternoon eating
and smiling, but they never said a word.
As twilight approached, the boy realized
how tired he was and he got up
to leave; but before he had gone
more than a few steps, he turned
around, ran back to the old woman, and gave
her a hug. She gave him her biggest smile ever
When the boy opened the door to his
own house a short time later, his
mother was surprised by the look
of joy on his face. She asked him,
'What did you do today that made you so
happy?' He replied, 'I had lunch
with God.' But before his mother could
respond, he added, 'You know what?
She's got the most beautiful
smile I've ever seen!'
Meanwhile, the old woman, also radiant
with joy, returned to her home.
Her son was stunned by the look
of peace on her face and he asked,
'Mother, what did you do today
that made you so happy?' She replied,
'I ate potato chips in the park with God.'
However, before her son responded,
she added, 'You know, he's much
younger than I expected.'
Too often we underestimate the power
of a touch, a smile, a kind word,
a listening ear, an honest compliment,
or the smallest act of caring, all
of which have the potential to turn a
life around. People come into
our lives for a reason, a season, or
a lifetime. Embrace all equally!
Have lunch with God.....bring chips.
Birthday
