" How great thou Art O Lord Praid you...
As day follows night I am with you, as storm clouds gather feel my presence and be not afraid. A cry from the heart anI surround you with my protecting love. Know that I am with you and feel safe as I comfort and console you as a loving mother would her child. As your faith in me becomes greater my love in you becomes ever more powerful until you draw all strength from me.. daily and in every fear and sorrow feel the balm of my healing love.. entering into you and sustaining you as you await each tomorrow. I await your daily love and dependance on me... your divine protection, your rescuer (illegible) redeemer, your saviour. Know that you and all your love ones are safe in my keeping. Think much on my divine presence within you as a living, caring God and accept all things in your daily living as my will for you, knowing each thing you do, each person you meet each trouble revealed to you is my guidance for you in reaching out to all with my love within you.... radiating to all who need me.. Praise God for the wonder of his love for all his children..."
Thanks honey ... I am so over-awed.. incredible stuff....

" Praise honour and glory are you Lord....
Think not on the daily trials and sorrow in your lives, rather be glad for through each of them.. each one.. you are both drawn a little closer to me and to my working in your lives. Behold the joy of the miracles of love which emerge through every trial and learn from me through each act of love, that I hear every cry to me. The seemingly unanswered prayers and praise are heard by me in a way not of your choosing but of mine in my infinate love and wisdom. Had your prayers been answered immediately how great the loss of God and to yourselves of the years of praise being guided in love to my beloved Father.. for through those prayers the power the divine power has so many others though reaching out in an ever widening (something...illegible) of Christ . Love entering into the minds and hearts of others... and even though you both may never see that person or persons who were touched... My spirit of love can redeem them. No prayer or praise is ever lost, remember that and know that through your prayer my power is working in marvellous ways, guiding my loved ones back to me their God, for spiritual healing rejoice in knowing that my joy is even greater that yours when a soul who was once lost is returned to me in love.. through you... my channels of love...
I knew she was a 'lovely' lady, but my goodness.. this is a completely undiscoverd and surprising aspect to her... It is 1:30 am in the morning and I cant put her note book down.. amazing.. whats particularly wierd is that some of the writings are written as prayers, but SOME are written like as if someone was speaking to her... strange.. but really inspiring....
On my grandmothers death an abundance of her writings were found, in old shoe boxes, on slips of paper on yellowed old note books.. I am absolutely bowled over and feel a compulsion to share.. there is far too much to write so I am just going to share a piece for now... I have only learned since her death that she used to be awakened at night with these inspirations...
"Praise you O Lord, give me a greater faith to believe...
A conquering the self a greater conquering I need from you, for it follows when you enter into my Discipleship, your dying to self must be an ongoing aim. Take my hands my wounded hand in yours and feel my strength coming through to show with you, your daily burdens. Only through the power of my divine strength in you can all things be accomplished. all who seek to live in my spirit filled life must become as one who seeks heaven as their goal and must come with me to that place where every sorrow becomes an act of faith raised up in love and acceptance to me. accept all in the knowledge that I am preparing you for the greatest honour of all, that of eternal life with me.. for all eternity. go in peace and let my joy be yours..
They don't... it just seems like it cause they don't get to enjoy the short term (but empty) hits of gratification that the bad boys get... nice guys are more likely to find a long term happy relationship and a secure family life based on the things that matter such as love and commitment...
everyones except mine ... but yeah to a tee I reckon.. especially Cancer... my mum is Cancer and is all sooo true.. especially the sensitive bit... can be a bit of a pain some times
My view on here would be ones that I hold strongly even in RL... do I have bad days yes.. have lost my cool a couple of times on here, but in the main, when I am not in the best of form I just stay out of everyones way until I am feeling myself again...
This is something which bugs me in fact... the idea (which generally cynics hold) that if you are nice that somehow you are not real, or you are holding something back, some people are just nice... just as some people are just horrible... In my opinion being nice is far more fruitful, as you are more likely to have positive experiences in life... going through life being negative and nasty or abrupt, tends to reap a negative result JMV
You are such a wonderful character Claayer, that you shouldn't have to worry about these things... you just sit back, be YOU and let your prospective (lucky) partner do the wooing
No... although I don't see it as a goal that has to be acheived anymore... it will happen naturally and in its own time... as for trust, I am still open to it.. but the person who gets me will have to earn it..
Our soul is our essence, that which breaths meaningful life into us, without it we would all be the same shade of grey.
We can tell it exists independant of the body even when we are living, because it speaks a different language than the mind... all worthwhile things like Love, Painting, Music, and Poetry come from the soul..
If you believe in the concept of soulmates (which I do) then you have to be prepared to do whatever it takes... it may be that the perfect person for us isn't on our door step, so travelling or making changes to our lives may be required.... having said that if you meet your perfect partner, it will be a mutual thing and a compromise and will not be that much of a chore after all...
Having said that mike... what if ur perfect girl is on your doorstep... I wouldn't rule that our either
There is the other side of the coin aswell... I have a friend who just turned 40 and is childless and completely broken hearted at the thought that she may never have children..... it's so much better to be single with a child than be single 40 and childless... once she has her child/children.... the right man can take his time to come along...
I LOVED that film... the secret is to suspend all common sense and logic and just accept it for what it is... I have been in TEARS laughing at that movie... cause it is such a piss take... ...
ya mean u didn't find the "Pop, ahe, ahe I think I got the black lung"... Hilarious!!
Hiya .. I would never say never either... but as a Christian dating a non Christian can be difficult, just purely on a practical level.... like e.g. If I were considering a potential boyfriend.. I would want to take things really slow, for us to get to know eachother etc, and have friendship as a basis first...lots of guys (albeit 'good' guys) would find it hard to understand that... never say never but I would perhaps find that too hard to handle.. cause I would not want to 'force' someone to see it my way, when all their instincts make them want to go another route... if u r dating someone who is also a Christian, they know exactly where you are coming from and why, and would find it alot easier
Hiya ... I think you are right... it is not good to judge anyone.. even on the basis of Religion... however, when it comes down to the practicalities.. we all try to make informed choices when it comes to chosing a significant partner... for e.g. if you have nothing in common with a person, and are on a completely different wavelength.. you might question ur suitability with that person...
Given that (to a spiritual person) beliefs etc go to the core and are fairly fundamental to them... clashes (in the mid to long term) are very possible, and you have to kind of consider that before you embark on something which you have a strong sense is not going to work... at the end of the day, you can't make someone think and feel what you want them to..
I have to share this with you.....
Ok.. .I am going to bed after this one I promise!!!" How great thou Art O Lord Praid you...
