the mind is a powerful thing and in itself can make a heaven of hell or a hell of heaven.

the most excellent way: Now you are the body of Christ, and each one of you is a part of it.
And in the church God has appointed first of all apostles,
second prophets, third teachers, then workers of miracles,
also those having gifts of healing, those able to help others,
those with gifts of administration, and those speaking in different kinds of tongues.
Are all apostles? Are all prophets? Are all teachers? Do all work miracles?
Do all have gifts of healing? Do all speak in tongues?
Do all interpret? But eagerly desire the greater gifts.
And now I will show you the most excellent way.

Love
If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love,
I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal
If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge,
and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but have not love, I am nothing.
If I give all I possess to the poor and surrender my body to the flames,
but have not love, I gain nothing.
Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.
It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs.
Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth.
It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
Love never fails.

But where there are prophecies, they will cease;
where there are tongues, they will be stilled;
where there is knowledge, it will pass away.
For we know in part and we prophesy in part,
but when perfection comes, the imperfect disappears.
When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child,
I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put childish ways behind me.
Now we see but a poor reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face.
Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known.

And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.

for the sake of the gospel: 6 For though I preach the ^agospel, I have nothing to glory of: for ^bnecessity is laid upon me; yea, woe is unto me, if I ^cpreach not the gospel!
  17 For if I do this thing ^awillingly, I have a ^breward: but if against my will, a ^cdispensation of the gospel is committed unto me.
  18 What is my reward then? Verily that, when I preach the gospel, I may make the gospel of Christ without ^acharge, that I abuse not my power in the gospel.
  19 For though I be free from all men, yet have I made myself ^aservant unto all, that I might gain the more.
  20 And unto the Jews I became as a Jew, that I might gain the Jews; to them that are under the law, as under the law, that I might gain them that are under the law;
  21 To them that are without law, as without law, (being not without law to God, but under the law to Christ,) that I might gain them that are without law.
  22 To the weak became I as ^aweak, that I might gain the weak: I am made ^ball things to all men, that I might by all means save some.
  23 And this I do for the gospel’s sake, that I might be partaker thereof with you.
  24 Know ye not that they which run in a race run all, but one receiveth the prize? So run, that ye may obtain.
  25 And every man that striveth for the ^amastery is ^btemperate in all things. Now they do it to obtain a corruptible ^ccrown; but we an ^dincorruptible.
  26 I therefore so run, not as uncertainly; so fight I, not as one that beateth the air:
  27 But I ^akeep under my ^bbody, and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway.

The Repairer: Is it not to deal thy bread to the hungry,

and that thou bring the poor that are cast out to thy house?

when thou seests the naked, that thou cover him;

and that thou hide not thine own flesh?

Then shall thy light break forth as the morning,

and thine health shall spring forth speedily;

and thy righteousness shall go before thee;

the glory of the Lord shall be thy rereward.

Then shalt thou call, and the Lord shall answer;

thou shalt cry, and He shall say Here I am.

If thou take away from the midst of thee the yoke,

the putting forth of the finger, and speaking vanity;

And if thou draw out thy soul to the hungry

and satisfy the afflicted soul;

then shall thy light rise in obscurity,

and thy darkness be as the noonday:

And the Lord shall guide thee continually,

And satisfy thy soul in drought,

and make fat thy bones:

And thou shalt be like a watered garden,

and like a spring of water whose waters fail not.

And they that shall be of thee shall build the old waste places:

Thou shalt raise up the foundations of many generations;

And thou shalt be called, The repairer of the breach,

The restorer of paths to dwell in.

Isaiah 58: 7-12

crash here tonight: I almost said I love you ...
Could I really be that kind of guy
See one candle burning in your eye
And watch my heart fill up with butterflies

I almost said I need you
Girl I shouldn't go there anymore
Act like I never been in love before
You probably think it's my first time...

Is this what love's all about
Am I getting in too deep
Wouldn't want to freak you out
Make a promise I can't keep

So close your eyes and hum along
And I'll sing you one more love song
If everything is still alright
Why don't you just crash here tonight

Close your eyes and hum along
And I'll sing you one more love song
If everything is still alright
Why don't you just crash here tonight

Girl if everything is still alright
Why don't you just crash here tonight

love toby keith's new song..goin' country ...LoL

34 years of blessing (the story of my life): May 17,1972

TODAY... God has given me the 34th year of my life...
Looking back, all I can say is that it has been a good 34 years...
God's been so very good to me.
Thank you, Father, for Loving me...

If TODAY is the last day of my life here on earth,
I would gladly go.
I have lived my life to the fullest.
And I have been blessed so much.
I count everything that happens in my life as blessings from God...
Even the trials and tribulations, the heartaches and sufferings,
I count them as blessings because it was
God's way of making me stronger...of making my life complete.
I will not have it any other way...
I will gladly go through it again because when I am at my lowest and darkest...
There He will be, holding my hand and giving me strength.

If TODAY is the last day of my life...
I'm not going to leave without thanking the people who have touched my life,
And made my time here on earth a bearable journey...

To my parents...Mom and Dad...thank you for loving me.
As I am... I know it's been hard having a daughter like me...
A blacksheep with a mind of her own, never fitting in a box,
I know I have disappointed you...the life I chose to lead,
and the choices I've made over the years...
But never once did you let it show... and I'm grateful for that.
I'm lucky to be born to parents like you. I love you Mom & Dad.

To my sisters Rose and Trinity, thanks for being there for me...
And for being the best sisters this side of earth.
Brothers Maki and Jomz, thanks for being a "big brother"
an older sister can count and depend on...in times of big trouble.
I love you guys...and I'm lucky to have great brothers and sisters like you.

The rest of the Clan...Mom's side and Dad's side...
I know we don't often see each other...except on weddings, reunions
and sad but true...funerals. It's not your fault I know...
It's me...I missed you guys....I really do
and I might be far but I remember all of you.
Thanks for all your prayers...I'm lucky to have you as my family.

To the people who have helped shaped my life...
Mrs. Jessie Israel, my mentor. The strong lady who cheats cancer
because she's not ready to die yet.
She has many lives still to touch...thank you so much for touching mine.
Ms. B..thank you for always believing in me...
I have accomplished so much because of this faith you have in me.

And last but not least to all my FRIENDS...
To all my old friends who go a long way back with me...
How big we've grown but deep inside we're still the same people.
I missed you guys and hope we could spend more time together.
But we're always running in different directions...busy with our own lives.
I understand that...and I know it doesn't mean we've grown too far apart.

To new friends...you know who you all are.
If you've read this far...you know you are one of them.
We might not speak for a long time...but remember the first time we've met.
How we feel then. Friends even though you've never seen them..
are still friends...we have shared some part of ourselves with each other.
And I hope if we never speak again...you will remember me as I am.
The person you talked with is the person I really am...
Some of you guys I really miss...I hope you know you are one of them.
I will always treasure our friendship.
Our eyes might never meet...you might not hear my laughter and I yours.
You might never see the tears I shed for every friend I lose.
I don't want to lose you...not even one of you.
So there guys, don't go making me cry on my special day!!!
Let me know you remember me and the friendship we have.

And to someone out there...it might be you...
I'm prepared to cross oceans of time to find you.
You might be in my circle of friends...
I will always wait for you...

Isaiah 40:31 KJV

But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.
