Raised On It...........

From the time I was born, I was raised to know about the Lord. My grandmother, took me to church every time the door was opened. All my childhood, was spent playing with my dolls and whatever toy, the family was able to afford for me. Remembering my grandmother, always telling me about God, and expressing how she hoped one day I would be a preacher, led me as a small child to feel special. I can remember playing church with my dolls and sitting them on the steps of the front porch, and leading them in church. Everything I had seen during service's was what I would perform, during my play session. I became the leader of songs, prayer and eventually preach a child like sermon, to my dolls. I would that today's children, enjoyed the innocence of the children years ago. To know God, with the innocence of a child is the beginning of real faith....

Atlanta Plumber

I'm sure at sometime there has been a need for you to contact a plumber to fix a problem around your home. I know that I've need one several times in the last year, and it's been a wait and see, type thing. That's the one thing I shouldn't have done........because it only got worse. When you need a plumber in a hurry, you probably grab the phone book. Don't call the first plumber you see listed in the yellow pages. Make sure you get the best qualified one for the job you need done. If you live in Atlanta, GA, then you know that the right Atlanta plumber can mean the difference between a positive outcome and a complete disaster. Finding an Atlanta Plumber
is easy if you grab the first one listed. Some Atlanta homeowners can save some money by handling the small problems themselves. But a botched job can end up costing you way more than if you had called an experienced plumber in the first place. Try to get several bids to help ensure that you get similar estimates that will make it easier for you to compare them. also keep in mind that the lowest quote isn’t always the best deal. For this type of job you need quality work done. In the long run you will rest assured that the job was done right, and you don't need to worry.

A Mess

My life has been one big mess, down through the years. I was always fighting against the things I didn't like, and trying to keep them away from me and my life. Try as I may, they would come daily to snatch away any shred of sanity or self esteem I could muster.
Lately, things were going fair, and then things took a turn for the worse. Now, given the statistics of things, I will have to make another major decision in my life. I don't relish this one anymore than I did the other one's. So, as each day passes, the pro's and con's will add to my decision making.........all too soon, it must be faced.....and then I will have to live with the outcome..........

Prayer Request...........

Today, I got up as usual, and went to the bathroom, .............suddenly, I heard a crash..............I hollered at my spouse and asked him what was he doing? He didn't answer me..........so, being perturbed, I asked him again, "Indio what did you do?" Still no answer................I walked straight to the bedroom, and found him down on the floor, reaching up for help......................now, talk about, being afraid................that's not the full limit, of what I was feeling..............so, once again.............I asked him, "What did you do?" He looked at me and reached for me to get help to get up..................I took his hand and realized that he wasn't able to use my hand to get to his feet..................so, I drug him out from between the bed and the dresser, and reached down, around his chest and lifted him up, to his feet.....................I could tell that something was terribly wrong...................oh, yeah,.............he had ............had a stroke............and I got him to the couch, and helped him dress.....................and told him that he was going to the emergency room at Parkland Hospital...............I wasn't taking "NO" for an answer..............
I was right.................and when we got him there, they took him straight in..............which is something that they don't do, unless it's serious...............
Well, 10 hours later, when I left after spending all day in the ICU, he still wasn't stabelized and I called back before I went to bed, ............they said he was doing ok..................well, I watched as his blood pressure went up and down all day.............so, I truly hope that they know what they are saying.................
I'm asking for your prayers, and hope with all my heart, this person................comes out of this unscathed................he's my baby...!

Childhood Memories

Do you remember being in events as a child and going on Easter hunts,with the other children in your class? Wasn't it fun to find the prize egg, and get the 50, or 25 cents, they had stuffed inside the candy egg? How about those boiled and dyed chicken eggs, that you tried to peel and they would tear up? One of them would be the prize egg to find, for a dollar or five dollars. Boy, wasn't it fun to show off your prize? I often catch myself remembering, how I would be so excited to go shopping for my "easter dress, shoes and hat." My grandmother would always, buy me white sandals, so they would show the same matching color socks, as my dress. I didn't like green or blue for my dress color, it always, had to be yellow or pink. If she didn't buy me a white straw hat to wear with it then, she would get me a nice same color satin ribbon to tie on a barrette and put in my hair, so I wouldn't loose it running and playing. It was a time to show off our "Sunday best", and see if someone had something as nice as ours was. Yes, Easter was quite a time, for us youngsters, back when I was young. We never missed church and the beautiful story of Christ's resurection. I remember the Easter lilies, that sat down at the front of the church, near the altar. To me they were all a part of the celebration of Easter.

Easter Message

THE STORY OF EDITH BURNS...
by Russel Kelfer Happy Easter! Edith Burns was a wonderful Christian who lived in San Antonio, Texas. She was the patient of a doctor by the name of Will Phillips. Dr. Phillips was a gentle doctor who saw patients as people. His favorite patient was Edith Burns. One morning he went to his office with a heavy heart and it was because of Edith Burns. When he walked into that waiting room, there sat Edith with her big black Bible in her lap earnestly talking to a young mother sitting beside her.

Edith Burns had a habit of introducing herself in this way: "Hello, my name is Edith Burns. Do you believe in Easter?" Then she would explain the meaning of Easter, and many times people would be saved.

Dr. Phillips walked into that office and there he saw the head nurse, Beverly. Beverly had first met Edith when she was taking her blood pressure. Edith began by saying,"My name is Edith Burns. Do you believe in Easter?"

Beverly said, "Why yes I do."

Edith said, "Well, what do you believe about Easter?"

Beverly said, "Well, it's all about egg hunts, going to church, and dressing up." Edith kept pressing her about the real meaning of Easter, and finally led her to a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ.

Dr. Phillips said, "Beverly, don't call Edith into the office quite yet. I believe there is another delivery taking place in the waiting room.

After being called back in the doctor's office, Edith sat down and when she took a look at the doctor she said, "Dr. Will, why are you so sad? Are you reading your Bible? Are you praying?"

Dr. Phillips said gently, "Edith, I'm the doctor and you're the patient." With a heavy heart he said, "Your lab report came back and it says you have cancer, and Edith, you're not going to live very long."

Edith said, "Why Will Phillips, shame on you. Why are you so sad? Do you think God makes mistakes? You have just told me I'm going to see my precious Lord Jesus, my husband, and my friends. You have just told me that I am going to celebrate Easter forever, and here you are having difficulty giving me my ticket!"

Dr. Phillips thought to himself, "What a magnificent woman this Edith Burns is!"

Edith continued coming to Dr. Phillips. Christmas came and the office was closed through January 3rd. On the day the office opened, Edith did not show up. Later that afternoon, Edith called Dr. Phillips and said she would have to be moving her story to the hospital and said, "Will, I'm very near home, so would you make sure that they put women in here next to me in my room who need to know about Easter."

Well, they did just that and women began to come in and share that room with Edith. Many women were saved. Everybody on that floor from staff to patients were so excited about Edith, that they started calling her Edith Easter; that is everyone except Phyllis Cross, the head nurse.

Phyllis made it plain that she wanted nothing to do with Edith because she was a "religious nut". She had been a nurse in an army hospital. She had seen it all and heard it all. She was the original G.I. Jane. She had been married three times, she was hard, cold, and did everything by the book.

One morning the two nurses who were to attend to Edith were sick.

Edith had the flu and Phyllis Cross had to go in and give her a shot. When she walked in, Edith had a big smile on her face and said, "Phyllis, God loves you and I love you, and I have been praying for you."

Phyllis Cross said, "Well, you can quit praying for me, it won't work. I'm not interested."

Edith said, "Well, I will pray and I have asked God not to let me go home until you come into the family."

Phyllis Cross said, "Then you will never die because that will never happen," and curtly walked out of the room.

Every day Phyllis Cross would walk into the room and Edith would say, "God loves you Phyllis and I love you, and I'm praying for you.."

One day Phyllis Cross said she was literally drawn to Edith's room like a magnet would draw iron. She sat down on the bed and Edith said, "I'm so glad you have come, because God told me that today is your special day"

Phyllis Cross said, "Edith, you have asked everybody here the question, "Do you believe in Easter but you have never asked me."

Edith said, "Phyllis, I wanted to many times, but God told me to wait until you asked, and now that you have asked." Edith Burns took her Bible and shared with Phyllis Cross the Easter Story of the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ. Edith said, "Phyllis, do you believe in Easter? Do you believe that Jesus Christ is alive and that He wants to live in your heart?"

Phyllis Cross said, "Oh I want to believe that with all of my heart, and I do want Jesus in my life "Right there, Phyllis Cross prayed and invited Jesus Christ into her heart. For the first time Phyllis Cross did not walk out of a hospital room, she was carried out on the wings of angels..

Two days later, Phyllis Cross came in and Edith said, "Do you know what day it is?" Phyllis Cross said, "Why Edith, it's Good Friday."

Edith said, "Oh, no, for you every day is Easter. Happy Easter Phyllis!"

Two days later, on Easter Sunday, Phyllis Cross came into work, did some of her duties and then went down to the flower shop and got some Easter lilies because she wanted to go up to see Edith and give her some Easter lilies and wish her a Happy Easter.

When she walked into Edith's room, Edith was in bed. That big black Bible was on her lap. Her hands were in that Bible. There was a sweet smile on her face. When Phyllis Cross went to pick up Edith's hand, she realized Edith was dead. Her left hand was on John 14: "In my Father's house are many mansions. I go to prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself, that where I am, there you may be also." Her right hand was on Revelation 21:4, "And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes, there shall be no more death nor sorrow, nor crying; and there shall be no more pain, for the former things have passed away."

Phyllis Cross took one look at that dead body, and then lifted her face toward heaven, and with tears streaming down here cheeks, said, "Happy Easter, Edith - Happy Easter!"

Phyllis Cross left Edith's body, walked out of the room, and over to a table where two student nurses were sitting. She said, "My name is Phyllis Cross. Do you believe in Easter?"

Dear God

I have several friends and acquaintances, who have run into domestic turmoil lately. It's sad to watch them fall apart and hear their pain. It's also sad to watch the other party involved, go around acting stupid and amorous. You'd think they'd have more respect for themselves than that. You'd think they'd want to do things right. If they are going to breakup with their spouses, why inflict such pain?
I pray for your help, in these matters and somehow give these people comfort in their times of need. In your name I ask, Amen

Daddy's Poem

Her hair was up in a pony tail,
her favorite dress tied with a bow.
Today was Daddy's Day at school,
and she couldn't wait to go.

But her mommy tried to tell her,
that she probably should stay home.
Why the kids might not understand,
if she went to school alone.

But she was not afraid;
she knew just what to say.
What to tell her classmates
of why he wasn't there today.

But still her mother worried,
for her to face this day alone.
And that was why once again,
she tried to keep her daughter home.

But the little girl went to school
eager to tell them all.
About a dad she never sees
a dad who never calls.

There were daddies along the wall in back,
for everyone to meet.
Children squirming impatiently,
anxious in their seats

One by one the teacher called
a student from the class.
To introduce their daddy,
as seconds slowly passed.

At last the teacher called her name,
every child turned to stare.
Each of them was searching,
a man who wasn't there.

'Where's her daddy at?'
She heard a boy call out.
'She probably doesn't have one,'
another student dared to shout.

And from somewhere near the back,
she heard a daddy say,
'Looks like another deadbeat dad,
too busy to waste his day.'

The words did not offend her,
as she smiled up at her Mom.
And looked back at her teacher,
who told her to go on.

And with hands behind her back,
slowly she began to speak.
And out from the mouth of a child,
came words incredibly unique.

'My Daddy couldn't be here,
because he lives so far away.
But I know he wishes he could be,
since this is such a special day.

And though you cannot meet him,
I wanted you to know.
All about my daddy,
and how much he loves me so.

He loved to tell me stories
he taught me to ride my bike.
He surprised me with pink roses,
and taught me to fly a kite.

We used to share fudge sundaes,
and ice cream in a cone.
And though you cannot see him.
I'm not standing here alone.

'Cause my daddy's always with me,
even though we are apart
I know because he told me,
he'll forever be in my heart'

With that, her little hand reached up,
and lay across her chest.
Feeling her own heartbeat,
beneath her favorite dress.

And from somewhere there in the crowd of dads,
her mother stood in tears.
Proudly watching her daughter,
who was wise beyond her years.

For she stood up for the love
of a man not in her life.
Doing what was best for her,
doing what was right.

And when she dropped her hand back down,
staring straight into the crowd.
She finished with a voice so soft,
but its message clear and loud.

'I love my daddy very much,
he's my shining star.
And if he could, he'd be here,
but heaven's just too far.

You see he is a Soldier
and died just this past year
When a roadside bomb hit his convoy
and taught Americans to fear.

But sometimes when I close my eyes,
it's like he never went away.'
And then she closed her eyes,
and saw him there that day.

And to her mother's amazement,
she witnessed with surprise.
A room full of daddies and children,
all starting to close their eyes.

Who knows what they saw before them,
who knows what they felt inside.
Perhaps for merely a second,
they saw him at her side.

'I know you're with me Daddy,'
to the silence she called out.
And what happened next made believers,
of those once filled with doubt.

Not one in that room could explain it,
for each of their eyes had been closed.
But there on the desk beside her,
was a fragrant long-stemmed pink rose.

And a child was blessed, if only for a moment,
by the love of her shining star.
And given the gift of believing,
that heaven is never too far.

They say it takes a minute to find a special
person, an hour to appreciate them,
a day to love them, but then an entire
life to forget them.

God Bless

There must be many children in the same boat as this little girl, thanks to our servicemen and their families for the sacrifice they are making to keep our country Free.
