Love....... it is Valentine

Love your neighbour as yourself not just that person you are dreaming about
Love your spouse all year round not just on Valentine and special days
Love yourself with the love of God and believe and accept
Jesus as your Lord and saviour
Love the unlovable, forgive when you are offended and ask
God the greatest Lover to help you
Love the needy and show them uncommon love that will affect their lives forever
Love the sick; give a helping hand and put smiles on others’ faces
Love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul, mind and strength
Love sincerely, affectionately and with compassion for this will please
God the greatest Lover.
Love .....it is Valentine, use this time to show true Christian virtues.

Easter Prayer

God our Father,
by raising Christ your Son
you conquered the power of death
and opened for us the way to eternal life.
Let our celebration today raise us up
and renew our lives by the Spirit that is within us.
Grant this through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son,
who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit,
one God, for ever and ever. Amen.
                                                         ~~~~~~

Easter Prayer

An Easter Prayer

Of all of God's gifts
Easter shows us our fate
Forgiven we will rise
And pass through Heaven's gate

This Easter remember
The sacrifice of a Son
And through His resurrection
Eternal life we have won

This Easter I pray
That the love of God
Is resurrected
Reborn, renewed

And enlarged
Inside your heart
God Bless You!

Clay Balls
A man was exploring caves by the Seashore.  In one of the caves he found a canvas bag with a bunch of hardened clay balls.  It was like someone had rolled clay balls and left them out in the sun to bake.   They didn't look like much, but they intrigued the man, so he took the bag out of the cave with him.  As he strolled along the beach, he would throw the clay balls one at a time out into the ocean as far as he could.


He thought little about it, until he dropped one of the clay balls and it cracked open on a rock.  Inside was a beautiful, precious stone! 


Excited, the man started breaking open the remaining clay balls.  Each contained a similar treasure.  He found thousands of dollars worth of jewels in the 20 or so clay balls he had left.   


Then it struck him.  He had been on the beach a long time. He had thrown maybe 50 or 60 of the clay balls with their hidden treasure into the ocean waves.  Instead of thousands of dollars in treasure, he could have taken home tens of thousands, but he had just thrown it away!  


It's like that with people.  We look at someone, maybe even ourselves, and we see the external clay vessel..  It doesn't look like much from the outside.  It isn't always beautiful or sparkling, so we discount it.  


We see that person as less important than someone more beautiful or stylish or well known or wealthy.  But we have not taken the time to find the treasure hidden inside that person.  


There is a treasure in each and every one of us.  If we take the time to get to know that person, and if we ask God to show us that person the way He sees them, then the clay begins to peel away and the brilliant gem begins to shine forth. 

 
May we not come to the end of our lives and find out that we have thrown away a fortune in friendships because the gems were hidden in bits of clay. May we see the people in our world as God sees them.   
 
I am so blessed by the gems of friendship I have with you.  Thank you for looking beyond my clay vessel. 

APPRECIATE EVERY SINGLE

THING YOU HAVE, ESPECIALLY YOUR FAMILY & FRIENDS!

LIFE IS TOO SHORT AND TRUE FRIENDS ARE TOO FEW!

Pass this on to another Clay Ball!!!

Do not ask the Lord to Guide your Footsteps if you are not willing to MOVE your Feet'

A Father Like You

I just want you to know
you mean the world to me
Only a heart as dear as yours
would give so unselfishly.

The many things you've done,
all the times that you were there,
Helps me know deep down inside
how much you really care.

Even though I might not say it,
I appreciate all you do
So richly blessed is how I feel
for having a father just like you

A Mother's Love

There are times only when a Mother's love
Can understand our tears,
Can soothe our disappointments
And calm all our fears.

There are times when only a Mother's Love
Can share the joy we feel
When something we've dreamed about
Quite suddenly is real.

There are times when only a Mother's faith
Can help on life's way
And inspire in us the confidence
We need from day to day.

For a Mother's heart and a Mother's faith
And a Mother's steadfast love
Were fashioned by the Angels
And sent from God above...

- Michael O. Adesanya

EASTER

Christmas is glorious
Of its Holy gift we sing
Of a manger and baby
Our blessed newborn king 

Thanksgiving is so grand
Our thanks to God we give
For His unending bounty
Gracing each day we live 
 
Valentines Day is romantic
A day we are filled with love
Love from spouse and family
Love from the Great One above
 
But there is one holiday
That rises above them all
Rewarding each one of us
Whether strong, meek or small
 
Of all of God's gifts
Easter shows us our fate
Forgiven we will rise
And pass through Heaven's gate
 
This Easter remember
The sacrifice of a Son
And through His resurrection
Eternal life we have won
 
This Easter I pray
That the love of God
Is resurrected
Reborn and renewed
Inside your heart
God Bless You!

Valentine’s Day With Jesus

Jesus does not send perfume
To linger in the air
Instead He sends salvation, sweet
To show how much He cares.

He doesn’t bring me candy hearts
In boxes of delight
Instead He always lets me know
I’m precious in His sight.

He doesn’t send out pretty cards
Trimmed in shades of red
Instead He gave His life for me
His precious blood was shed.

He doesn’t hand out fancy gifts
Like we would send to mother
Instead He sends a message clear
To always love each other.

He doesn’t give me teddy bears
That whimper, "please be mine"
Instead He gave His heart to me
I wear it all the time.

He doesn’t give me roses, pink
For all the world to see
Instead He gave eternal life
That’s good enough for me!

Deeper in Love (Jesus Love Song)

There is a longing,
Only you can fill
A raging tempest
Only you can still
My soul is thirsting lord
To know you as i’m known
Drink from the river
That flows before your throne

- Chorus –
Take me deeper, deeper in love with you
Jesus hold me close in your embrace
Take me deeper, deeper than
I’ve never been before
I just want to love you more and more
How i long to be deeper in love.

Sunrise to sunrise
I will seek your face
Drawn by the spirit
To the promise of your grace
My heart has found in you
A hope that will abide
Here in your presence
Forever satisfied

Don Moen
