Born again in christ <3 (online status not displayed)
   SINCE JANURARY 2010   Some who claim to be Christians who are very bigoted, harsh, unloving, and even violent (in the past), we want you to know that this is not the teaching of Christ. Just because some people say they are Christians and then behave badly, it does not mean they are true believers in Christianity. 2 Real Good Reasons Why You Need to Get Saved Immediately 1. Why do you need to be saved immediately? Maybe this scripture in Revelation 20:15 will put the fear of God in you to get saved immediately: "And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire." 2. You need to get saved immediately because you have no guarantee you will be here 5 seconds from now. If your life was suddenly terminated without being saved you would instantly go to hell and eventually end up in the lake of fire. And you have an enemy, Satan, working around the clock to try to harm and kill you so you will do just that, end up in hell. Right now the only thing keeping you from dying and going to hell is the grace of God. But how long will God's patience with your rebellion last? Please don't test His patience. "Behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation" (2 Corinthians 6:2b KJV). How do you make sure you're saved and your name is written in the Book of Life? Your sins must be cleansed by the shed blood of Jesus Christ by receiving Him as your Lord and Savior. The Bible says in Hebrews 9:22b that "without shedding of blood is no remission (forgiveness)." It also states in Romans 3:23 "For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God." Then in Romans 6:23 it says "For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord." Receive God's free gift of eternal life now and have your name instantly written in heaven so you will not spend eternity in the lake of fire. Pray this prayer: Heavenly Father, I admit I am a sinner and need forgiveness. I believe Jesus Christ died on the cross, was buried and was resurrected on the third day. With your help I turn from all sin and now invite Jesus Christ into my heart. Help me to obey your Word as I follow Jesus Christ, the Lord of my life. If you prayed that prayer and were sincere then you are saved and your name is written in the Book of Life in heaven. "For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast" (Ephesians 2:8-9 KJV). What would God have you do now? 1. Read and obey God's Word daily. 2. Develop your relationship with God by spending a quite time with Him daily. Also set aside a time of thanking, praising and worshipping Him. 3. Share your love for Jesus Christ with others. 4. Be baptized in water and be baptized in the power of the Holy Spirit with the evidence of speaking in tongues according to Acts 2:4. 5. Thank, praise and worship the Lord with other believers in a bible believing church. 6. Above all, love God more than life and walk in love towards others and forgive others as Jesus Christ forgave you. May you now understand what "Why You Need to Get Saved Immediately" really means.

As the old year fades away, a new one dawns
... bringing you adventure, happiness, health,
peace and prosperity. We are now coming
into a brand new year and I want to stop in with
some New Year cheer. I pray that this New Year
will bring you many blessings to you .. filled with
peace and love and happiness too.
Here is some nice
words from a friend of mine....
May God make your year a happy one!
Not by shielding you from all sorrows and pain,
But by strengthening you to bear it, as it comes:
Not by making your path easy,
But by making you sturdy to travel any path;
Not by taking hardships from you,
But be taking fear from your heart;
Not by granting you unbroken shunshine,
But by keeping your face bright,
Even in the shadows;
Not by making your life always pleasant,
But by showing you when people
and their causes need you most,
and by making you anxious to be there to help.
God's Love, Peace, Hope and Joy
To you for the year ahead.
and from me ...
Wishing you a bright New Year
because you are special. A year
where your troubles are all behind you:
Where many good things come your way ...
And most all, a year that brings you comfort,
a renewed spirit and lasting happiness.
Happy New Year!
Happiness Always!
God Bless You Always!

Happy Christmas Eve dear friend,
Hope you've got everything done
that you need to for the BIG
celebration tomorrow,
I still have a few last
minute preparations to finish,
then I can kick back & enjoy
the day :)
And hope that through the hustle & bustle of the season,
we remember to keep CHRIST
in CHRISTmas, for afterall if it
wasn't for our Lord & Saviour
Jesus Christ, there would be
no christmas to celebrate :)
And what a free gift he offers to all of us,
it is the gift of salvation, do you know him
in a personal way, if not & you'd like too,
just pray this prayer, dear Jesus,
I know I'm a sinner & believed
you died on the cross for me
& shed your blood for my sins,
come into my heart & save me
I pray, in Jesus name, Amen :)
It's the best gift you could ever
recieve this christmas,
if you said that prayer & meant it,
then you are part of the family of God :)
And if your already saved,
then praise the Lord my
fellow servant in Christ :)
I pray you seek him by reading his word,
the holy bible (King James Version), if you don't already,
so that you may have a closer walk with him,
as I strive everyday to know him better :)
Merry Christmas :)
Hugs,
P.S. That comment was not planned,
once I started, it just flowed out
from there, that's God working
in & through me, Praise be to his name,
for he alone is worthy :)

The days are lapsing by very fast and with Christmas
round the corner the you know the year is almost over.
How time flies and with lots of resolutions made earlier
in the year ... yet to be achieved or long forgotten. Soon
it is time to make new ones and we hope to do better
in the year ahead. So ...
Let us give a smile to everyone, no matter ... where we go
Just to brighten another's day ...Let us share a sweet "Hello"
Let us all say kind things. It is the least we can do. Let
us all hold the kindest of inner thoughts for everyone -
both young and old
If we share a smile, than our love shows:
If we share a hug, than our love grows.
If we share with someone on whom we depend,
that person becomes family or friend.
And what draws us closer and makes us all care,
It is not what we have, but the things we share.
To those we love and see each day
And the other loved ones far away
To all good friends who mean so much
And those with whom we are out of touch
To folks who are so good and kind
It is so easy to keep them in mind
To people we keep close at heart
Even when we are apart
My wish for each and every one of you is Good Health,
mixed together with Peace of mind ... topped off with
Happiness, surrounded with love .. May God Bless and
watch over you - not just over the festive season but
throughout the coming year. May you also look forward
to the challenges of the New Year with enthusiasm
Wishing you a wonderful season filled with heavenly
Peace and warmth of His presence in your heart
and home as you celebrate this holiday season.
May God Bless your Christmas and New Year!
Merry Christmas to you ...my dear friend!

I am searching for the right words to describe just how I feel today.
Let me just put it this way ... you are more than a friend to me.
Let me just say a "SPECIAL THANK YOU" for all the nice and
wonderful greetings from all of you. It brings special joy to the day.
Special thanks also to all the artist who have blessed us with such
beautiful artwork for us to enjoy and I know and look forward to more
beautiful handiwork in the seasons to come. A friend sent me some
beautiful meaningful words and I just felt that I should share it with you
too. I have added here as the last two paragraphs. I believe it is more to
remind us ... that Christmas is nearing and to have a right attitude.
After all, ... Christmas is a time for sharing and giving.
I know and express joy, unlimited and full of gratitude.
In our humanness, there are physical activities, events, and
ACCOMPLISHMENTS that bring us joy. From our subtle giggles
and chuckles with friends, to our cheering shouts in a crowd, we
unite in expressions of happiness. We exchange the jubilance
of the human spirit with abilities to inspire one another, to thrive
individually, and to expand joyfully amidst a multitude of life's happenings.
The joy of the Spirit is the greatest joy, because it is pure, deep, and
powerful. In any moment - whether still or exuberant, happy or
Serious - we can experience the joy of Spirit. Allowing ourselves to
Acknowledge that God's spirit is within us, enfolding us, we know and
Express joy, unlimited and full of gratitude.
Life's true fortune arises from what you have the opportunity to become,
to create, to give and to experience. Celebrate life's limitless abundance
by making a positive, meaningful difference in your world, Feast upon
life's delicious richness by allowing genuine, unrestrained joy with
thankfullness to flow out from you.
Celebrate life's abundance by doing something new and unique and
beautiful and loving with it all. Reach within, feel the miraculous reality
of who you truly are, and delight in giving the best of yourself to life.
Shine the bright light of joy and thankfulness on all that is around you.
Feel how good it feels when your joy spreads to other, Live the
abundance of bringing your positive, meaningful purpose to life
bringing your positive, meaningful purpose to life in each moment.
Remember - people are always good company when they are doing
what they really enjoy. “God bless you for your thoughtfulness
And keep you in His care.” Have a beautiful day my friend!

The things that matter most in our lives are not the things we have acquired along
the way - but rather the treasure chest of moments, memories and experiences
shared with people we love. Friendship ties are lasting bonds woven in each heart ...
that keeps friends close in though, together or apart. Though life keeps getting
busier, there is never a time when you are not thought of and cred about - because
you mean so much. Just for you, I hope this special time of the year find you happy,
and healthy and looking forward to all the wonderful things of the Season. I just want
to say ... "Thank You " warmly, wonderfully and very gratefully ... for being the special
kind of person ... who makes my heart happy in ways tht there will never be enough
words for it.
I also hope that this Thanksgiving Day" fills your heart in a special way
and bring you much hope, peace, love and happiness. May you also have wonderful
moments and special memories this year. In all things ... let us not forget
to raise our eyes to the heaven and count our blessings. Let us thank the Almighty
for all that He has given us. HAPPY THANKSGIVING"
May the blessings of this Thanksgiving fill your heart and home with happiness.
Give thanks also for the gift of words and as long as there is air to breathe and light
to see, and lessons to learn to share the blessings on this day and
always. God bless you and your family at Thanksgiving and always!

Today is unique. It has never occurred before and it
will never be repeated. At midnight it will end, quietly,
suddenly, totally, forever. But the hours between now
and then are opportunities with eternal possibilities.
There will be good days and there will be bad days and
lately, I have experienced them both. Sometimes I feel
and wish I could turn the time and be be like I was
before but I know I must not call it quits but press on
and trust God that tomorrow will be a better day.
The secret of happiness is to be free of fear. Fear is
the like a toxin that runs through much of our thinking
It feeds on insecurity , feeling of loss, loneliness,
inadequacy and attachment. You are lovable and loving.
Accept this as Truth. Appreciate and care for yourself -
truly, deeply, intensely, in a way that reflects your real
value. Then you will automatically have the same regards
for all other living beings and things - I try to look at the
positive and keep this mind and I trust this helps in
some ways.... it definitely helps to lift my spirits up too.
I will have to face challenges with courage and definitely
some determination. I will try to overcome barriers that
may hinder my quest for a better day tomorrow and I know
it is not going to be easy. I will take one day at a time.
I believe there is hope for a brighter and better future.
I count my blessings that I have friends like you
Giving so much of yourself each time you visit
with your kind thoughts and comments. Oh!
how I look forward to your vists ... as they
surely brighten my days. This is something I love.
It is my dream this very moment for your days to
be most blessed and beautiful. May your days
be so special overflowing with God's love and care.
Have a nice time preparing for a nice .....
"Thanksgiving Day" later. Take care!

Winter is an etching, spring a watercolor, summer an oil
painting and autumn a mosaic of them all. Autumn is the
eternal corrective. It is ripeness and color and a time of
maturity. Let me express my thanks to all the artists here
who have produced such lovely "AUTUMN" graphics - things
of beauty of the season done so well....the colors so well
blended and the pictures ... just beautiful. To all the
artists .... thank you so much for the graphics.
Sometimes things happen to you and at the time they seem
painful and unfair, but in reflection you realize that without
overcoming those obstacles you would have never realised
your potential strength, will power or heart.
Everything happens for a reason. Nothing happens by chance
or by means of good or bad luck. Illness, injury, love, lost
moments of true greatness and sheer stupitidy all occur to
test the limits of your soul. Without these small tests, whether
they be events, illness or relationships life would be like a
smoothly paved straight flat road to nowhere, safe and
comfortable but dull and utterly pointless.
These past few months have been hard for me but I look
forward to a new and better day tomorrow . I believe
things can get only better . I look forward to your visits
very much but please bear with me if I do not respond
immediately. Thank you for your thoughts and kindness.
Take care and have a good day day!

I send ... that you will have a happy day filled
with sunshine and good cheer. May your heart
be content ... come what may.
With today's busy lifestyles, it is alll too easy to put
relationships on the backburner and take them for granted.
Even though you may have every intention of spending
regular time with your loved ones, hectic schedules get
in the way and you end up running in every direction
except towards each other.
You know that your personal relationships are paramount
to personal fulfillment. Be sure to set some time aside
each week to rediscover the people that mean most to you.
Be along with that person, talk,enjoy your time together
and renew your relationship.
After all, in this life, your loved ones are what really
matters . Who you are is not determined by what
people may say or do nor by any one event in your life
but by what lives inside of you. Greet every new day with
purpose . Live in each moment before it is gone.
Hold on tight to hope with both hands and keep walking
forwards as life goes. Your belief determines your actions
and your action determines your results, but first you
have to believe. Have a great day!.
