For QBF

Everyday brings a different lesson, I know someone who looks at all things as a lesson:)
please remember the following passage:)
Small ThingsTGIF Today God Is First, by Os Hillman
Who despises the day of small things? - Zechariah 4:10
Life is filled with a series of small things that can amount to something big. Have you ever considered why the God of the universe came to earth and spent 33 years identifying with mankind through work? Jesus grew up as a carpenter's son and, no doubt, learned the trade from His daily routine of helping His father. For 30 years He worked. When it was time for Him to begin to fulfill His purpose for mankind, He told countless stories of people and their work. He told stories of landowners, farmers, fishermen, tax collectors, and so on. He related to the everyday man because He Himself was one. This is why it was important for Him to have some personal work experience.Life is filled with daily routines. Every now and then, God takes us to the mountaintop to experience His presence in a dramatic way. This is not the norm. It was not the norm for those in the Bible either. Moses spent 40 years in preparation. Paul spent a great deal of his life working toward the wrong purpose until a dramatic event changed his life. Jacob spent 20 years working for Laban.God uses work to develop character qualities that He plans to use at the appropriate time. In the small things we develop trustworthiness with God. The day-in and day-out grind of working life molds us and makes us into what God desires. God may still be preparing you for something far greater. For now, however, you are learning the daily lessons of small things. Pray that you will be faithful.

a wise word:)

Serving Two Masters
A Mormon acquaintance once pushed Mark Twain into an argument on the issue of polygamy. After long and tedious expositions justifying the practice, the Mormon demanded that Twain cite any passage of scripture expressly forbidding polygamy."Nothing easier," Twain replied. "No man can serve two masters."

This answers many questions:

Man Talks to God
Man says to God: "God, why did you make woman so beautiful?"
God says: "So you would love her."
"But God," the man says, "why did you make her so dumb?"
God says: "So she would love you."

A Return to blog

I have return after many days of journey, a journey of education and relaxation, Core training was wonderful and President Bush was nice enough to send me an award I'm honored to receive it. The other exciting thing is the CCD program in our church and the fact that I am a co director of the program. the journey continues, education of our young church. Well, I am off to help on an awesome project today:)


Prayer for Dinner Parties
A woman invited some people to dinner. At the table, she turned to her six-year-old daughter and said, "Would you like to say the blessing?" "I wouldn't know what to say," she replied. "Just say what you hear Mommy say," the mother said. The child bowed her head and said, "Dear Lord, why on earth did I invite all these people to dinner?"

Words are not enough

I believe that you should follow your dream:)

even if they seem impossible:)

even if everyone tells you, "you can't"

keep on keeping on:)


from Ghetto to tooth fairy , who knows,

what's next:)

just believe

sometimes when you hear a song, it's as if you hear it for the first time, even when you have heard it hundreds of time:)
read the words and begin to believe again:)


Many nights we prayWith no proof anyone could here
In our hearts a hopeful songWe barely understood
Now we are not afraid Although we know there’s much to fear
We were moving mountains longBefore we knew we could

There can be miraclesWhen you believe
Though hope is frailIt’s hard to kill
Who knows what miraclesYou can achieve
When you believe somehow you willYou will when you believe
In this time of fearWhen prayer so often proves in vain
Hope seems like the summer birdsToo swiftly flown away
And now I am standing hereMy heart’s so full I can’t explain
Seeking faith and speaking wordsI never thought I’d say


They don’t always happen when you ask
And it’s easy to give in to your fear
But when you’re blinded by your pain
Can’t see you way safe through the rain
Thought of a still resilient voiceSays love is very near

I'm never getting into heaven

If you know anything about me, I always worry about my spelling:) here I have proof, that it is important


Getting Into Heaven
After a long illness, a woman died and arrived at the Gates of Heaven. While she was waiting for Saint Peter to greet her, she peeked through the gates. She saw a beautiful banquet table. Sitting all around were her parents and all the other people she had loved and who had died before her. They saw her and began calling greetings to her. "Hello!" "How are you? We've been waiting for you!" "Good to see you!" When Saint Peter came by, the woman said to him, "This is such a wonderful place! How do I get in?" "You have to spell a word," Saint Peter told her. "Which word?" the woman asked."Love." The woman correctly spelled love, and Saint Peter welcomed her into heaven. About six months later, Saint Peter came to the woman and asked her to watch the Gates of Heaven for him that day. While the woman was guarding the Gates of Heaven, her husband arrived. "I'm surprised to see you," the woman said. "How have you been?" "Oh, I've been doing pretty well since you died," her husband told her. "I married the beautiful young nurse who took care of you while you were ill. And then I won the lottery. I sold the little house you and I lived in and bought a big mansion. And my wife and I traveled all around the world. We were on vacation and I went water skiing today. I fell, the ski hit my head, and here I am. How do I get in?" "You have to spell a word," the woman told him. "Which word?" her husband asked. "Czechoslovakia."

Inner Peace
I'm passing this along to you as I consider you a valued friend.
This worked for me and I think it may work for you.
I have found Inner Peace.Recently I read an article that stated:
The best way to achieve inner peace is to Finish Things You Have Started.
So today I finished two large bags of potato chips, the last half of a lemon cream pie, a nearly full bottle of Jose Cuervo, a small box of Godiva Chocolates and I slapped the living shit out of someone I have never liked. I feel better than I have felt for a long time!
Please pass this along to a friend who is in need of Inner Peace

Did it hurt when you fell from Heaven?
The word says "Give drink to those who are thirsty, and feed the hungry.” How about dinner?You don't have an accountability partner? Me neither.
Is it a sin that you stole my heart?
Yeah I predicted David over Goliath.
I didn't believe in predestination till I met you.
What do YOU think? Will it be the flood or the fire next time?
Am I the only one who sees the sign of the beast in the Volkswagon logo?

Guardian Angel on the Job
A man was walking in the street when he heard a voice: "Stop! Stand still! If you take one more step, a brick will fall down on your head and kill you."The man stopped and a big brick fell right in front of him. The man was astonished.He went on, and after awhile he was going to cross the road. Once again the voice shouted: "Stop! Stand still! If you take one more step a car will run over you and you will die."The man did as he was instructed, and a car came careening around the corner, barely missing him."Where are you?" the man asked. "Who are you?""I am your guardian angel," the voice answered."Oh yeah?" the man asked. "And where the hell were you when I got married?"

I am amazed that weeks go by and I do not blog, well time speeds by. I've been relaxing and enjoying the summer, I know most of you who know me, are shocked, especially with the word relaxing:) next week I ask for prayers as a group of people get together for a VBS.

Taking Faith Healing Too Far
A faith healer asked Moshe how his family was getting along. "They're all fine," Moshe said, "Except my uncle. He's very sick.""Your uncle is not sick," the faith healer said. "He THINKS he's sick."Two weeks later, the faith healer ran into Moshe on the street. "How is your uncle getting along?" he asked.Moshe shrugged, "He THINKS he's dead."
