".......But A Friend Sticks Closer Than A Brother"

A FEW MOMENTS WITH GOD

Source: Ron Newhouse

Luke 17.4 - "And if the same person sins against you seven times a day, and turns back to you seven times and says, ‘I repent,’ you must forgive."

When Hubert French was 10 years old his father was shot and killed by an unknown assailant. Hubert took an attitude of vengeance against his father's assailant. Years later, in midlife Hubert was diagnosed with a neurological disorder. He was hospitalized, and eventually placed on heavy medication. He was told it was his only hope. Doctors informed him he would be on medication the rest of his life. But Hubert's condition continued to deteriorate. After several years on medication Hubert was totally disabled. It was when he was at his lowest point that he began to examine the feelings he had at the time of his father's death. Hubert began attending church and reading the Bible. The process was slow and often painful but he began forgiving the man who killed his father. And guess what? After a while the doctors were able to take him off his medication completely. Soon after that, his neurological disturbances disappeared. It has been 12 years now. The problem has never returned.

When we harbor negative feelings, when we are unable to forgive another person for what they have done to us, we are the ones who suffer most. It takes a toll on us emotionally, physically, and spiritually. Healing takes place when we are able to forgive.

Hi all!
I have started up a new community at 1love4ever . It's a place where Christians or people wanting to know more about Christianity can come and share their heart, thoughts, problems or what's on their mind. And where Christians can meet other Christians and fellowship and grow stronger in God discussing different issues etc.
The community is of course open to guy's and girls.
If you feel that you want to join....please do! I would like to get it up and running. :)
love to you all!

WENT TO A PARTY, MUM
>>I went to a party, And remembered what you said. You told me not to drink,
>Mom, so I had a sprite instead. I felt proud of myself, The way you said I
>would, That I didn't drink and drive, Though some friends said I should. I
>made a healthy choice, And your advice to me was right, The party finally
>ended, And the kids drove out of sight.
>
>I got into my car, Sure to get home in one piece, I never knew what was
>coming, Mom Something I expected least. Now I'm lying on the pavement, And
>I hear the policeman say, The kid that caused this wreck was drunk, Mom,
>his voice seems far away. My own blood's all around me, As I try hard not
>to cry. I can hear the paramedic say, This girl is going to die.
>
>I'm sure the guy had no idea, While he was flying high, Because he chose to
>drink and drive, Now I would have to die. So why do people do it,
>Mom, knowing that it ruins lives? And now the pain is cutting me, Like a
>hundred stabbing knives.
>
>Tell sister not to be afraid, Mom. Tell daddy to be brave, And when I go
>to heaven, Put " Mommy 's Girl" on my grave. Someone should have taught
>him, that it's wrong to drink and drive. Maybe if his parents had, I
>might still be alive.
>
>My breath is getting shorter, Mom, I'm getting really scared. These are
>my final moments, And I'm so unprepared. I wish that you could hold me
>Mom, As I lie here and die. I wish that I could say, "I love you, Mom!" So
>I love you and good-bye.


This is very sad. But it does happen. *crys*

Yesterday we went to the park.
Ruth and I go every afternoon and play tennis down at the park (there is a BIG white bord. We hit the ball on the bord. Does that make sens?)

The boy’s friends were down there and they tussled all afternoon! And then one of the boys said: Come down at the same time tomorrow.

Then we went home dinner was ready. It sooo nice to come home and every thing is ready!! (But you have to clean up.lol)
