  • GOD’S BOXES


    I have in my hands two boxes,
    Which God gave me to hold.
    He said, “Put all your sorrows in the black box,
    And all your joys in the gold.”


    I heeded His words, and in the two boxes,
    Both my joys and sorrows I stored,
    But though the gold became heavier each day,
    The black was as light as before.


    With curiosity, I opened the black,
    I wanted to find out why,
    And I saw, in the base of the box, a hole,
    Which my sorrows had fallen out by.


    I showed the hole to God, and mused,
    “I wonder where my sorrows could be!”
    He smiled a gentle smile and said,
    “My child, they’re all here with me.”


    I asked God, why He gave me the boxes,
    Why the gold and the black with the hole?
    “My child, the gold is for you to count your blessings,
    The black is for you to let go.”


    We should consider all of our friends a blessing.
    Send this to a friend today just to let them know you
    are thinking of them and that they are a joy in your life.

  • Time to Plant Your Garden




    Plant three rows of Peas:



    Peace of mind.


    Peace of heart.


    Peace of soul.



    Plant four rows of Squash:
    Squash gossip.


    Squash indifference.


    Squash grumbling.


    Squash selfishness.


    No garden should be without Turnips:
    Turnip for service when needed.


    Turnip to help one another.


    Turnip the music and dance.



    Plant four rows of Lettuce:
    Lettuce be faithful.


    Lettuce be kind.


    Lettuce be happy.


    Lettuce really love one another.



    To conclude our garden we must have Thyme:
    Thyme for fun.


    Thyme for rest.


    Thyme for others.


    Thyme for ourselves.



    Water freely with patience and cultivate with love.


    We reap what we sow — you ‘should’ have a bountiful garden.

  • A man in his 40′s bought a new BMW and was out on the interstate for a nice evening drive. The top was down, the breeze was blowing through what was left of his hair and he decided to open her up.
    As the needle jumped up to 80 mph, he suddenly saw flashing red and blue lights behind him.
    “There’s no way they can catch a BMW,” he thought to himself and opened her up further. The needle hit 90, 100…. Then the reality of the situation hit him. “What the hell am I doing?” he thought and pulled over.
    The cop came up to him, took his license without a word and examined it and the car.
    “It’s been a long day, this is the end of my shift and it’s Friday the 13th. I don’t feel like more paperwork, so if you can give me an excuse for your driving that I haven’t heard before, you can go.”
    The guy thinks for a second and says, “Last week my wife ran off with a cop. I was afraid you were trying to give her back.”
    “Have a nice weekend,” said the officer


    That was funny!


    COMFORT


    When your heart is sad and lonely,
           And your friends seem far away.
    Turn to Him who is all holy,
           And He’ll drive your cares away.


    When a dear one seems to fail you,
           When for friendship true you long,
    Confide in Him who is all true,
           And He’ll right your every wrong.


    Jesus’ heart is your true refuge,
           To Him you can always flee,
    Even when your hopes are sinking,
           He will then a true friend be.


    He will soothe your lonely spirit,
           He will love and bless and say,
    “Come to me and I will comfort,
           You, today and every day.


    Hope you’ll had a great 4th. I was lazy and stayed in the pool for a change.I’ll be around to visit very soon.hug,s  fancy
