A friend is a source of refuge and strength to those who walk in
darkness.

A friend is a whole lot of wonderful people rolled into one.

A friend is both a treasure and a comfort.

A friend is deep talks that go on until 3 a.m. on a work night.

A friend is laughter and going places and doing new things and having
the best time ever.

A friend is more than a shoulder to cry on.

A friend is never known till he is needed.

A friend is not too much sugar and just enough spice.

A friend is one good reason for believing in ESP.

A friend is one who helps you bridge the gaps between loneliness and
fellowship,
frustration and confidence, despair and hope, setbacks and success.

A friend is one who puts his finger on a fault without rubbing it in.

A friend is someone to add up all your traits but to bring up only
the good ones.

This is a collection of graffiti art from cities around the world. Check
out some of the coolest graffiti ever to grace the side of a building
with its presence. Much of the art that you can see here no longer
exists as it has been since covered with a fresh coat of paint.

HEALED AND WHOLE

One day I dug a little hole
And put my hurt inside
I thought that I could just forget
I'd put it there to hide.
    
But that little hurt began to grow
I covered it every day
I couldn't leave it and go on
It seemed the price I had to pay.
    
My joy was gone, my heart was sad
Pain was all I knew.
My wounded soul enveloped me
Loving seemed too hard to do.
    
One day, while standing by my hole
I cried to God above
And said, "If You are really there --
They say, You're a God of Love!"
    
And just like that -- He was right there And just put His arms around me
He wiped my tears, His hurting child
There was no safer place to be.
    
I told Him all about my hurt
I opened up my heart
He listened to each and every word
To every sordid part.
    
I dug down deep and got my hurt
I brushed the dirt away
And placed it in the Master's hand
And healing came that day.
    
He took the blackness of my soul
And set my spirit FREE!
Something beautiful began to grow
Where the hurt used to be.
    
And when I look at what has grown
Out of my tears and pain
I remember every day to give my hurts to Him And never bury them again.

Life is sweet because of the friends we have made,
And the things which in common we share;
…It's living and doing for somebody else.
On that all of life's splendor depends.
And the joy of it all, when we count it all up,
Is found in the making of friends.

Guidance

When I meditated on the word "guidance", I kept seeing"dance"
at the end of the word. I remember reading that doing God's will is
a lot like dancing.
When two people try to lead, nothing feels right. The movement doesn't
flow with the music, and everything is quite uncomfortable and jerky.
When one person relaxes and lets the other lead,
both bodies begin to flow with the music. One gives gentle cues, perhaps
with a nudge to the back or by pressing lightly in one direction or another.

It's as if two become one body, moving beautifully.
The dance takes surrender, willingness, and attentiveness from one
person and gentle guidance and skill from the other.
My eyes drew back to the word guidance.
When I saw "G," I thought of God, followed by "u" and "i."
God, "u" and "I" dance.
God, you and I dance.

This statement is what guidance means to me. As I
lowered my head, I became willing to trust that I would get
guidance about my life.
Once again, I became willing to let God lead.

Mending friendships is a task
I've set myself today.
The floor shall go unscrubbed for once,
The ironing's put away.

I'll get my pen and paper out
And write a loving line
Across the miles to one dear friend
To say I hope she's fine.

I'll telephone another friend
With whom I have lost touch,
To say because we never meet
I miss her, oh so much.

I'll put the coffee on to brew
And call the neighbors up
And beg them set their work aside
And drink from a friendship's cup.

Neglected household chores will wait,
But friends may drift away,
So now and then I just must have
A friendship mending day.

Love Can Last Forever

I can honestly say it was the best of times and the worst
of times. I was joyfully expecting my first child at the same
time that my once-energetic, zestful mother was losing her
battle with a brain tumor.

For ten years, my fiercely independent and courageous
mother had fought, but none of the surgeries or treatments had
been successful. Still, she never lost her ability to smile.
But now, finally, at only fifty-five, she became totally
disabled -- unable to speak, walk, eat or dress on her own.

As she grew closer and closer to death, my baby grew closer
and closer to life inside me. My biggest fear was that their
lives would never connect. I grieved not only for the upcoming
loss of my mother, but also that she and my baby would never
know each other.

My fear seemed well-founded. A few weeks before my due
date, Mother lapsed into a deep coma. Her doctors did not hold
any hope; they told us her time was up. It was useless to put
in a feeding tube, they said; she would never awaken.

We brought Mother home to her own bed in her own house, and
we insisted on care to keep her comfortable. As often as I
could, I sat beside her and talked to her about the baby moving
inside me. I hoped that somehow deep inside, she knew.

On February 3, 1989, at about the same time my labor
started, Mother opened her eyes. When they told me this at the
hospital, I called her home and asked for the phone to be put to
Mom's ear.

"Mom -- Mom -- listen. The baby is coming! You're going
to have a new grandchild. Do you understand?"

"Yes!"

What a wonderful word! The first clear word she'd spoken
in months!

When I called again an hour later, the nurse at her house
told me the impossible: Mom was sitting up, her oxygen tubes
removed. She was smiling.

"Mom, it's a boy! You have a new grandson!"

"Yes! Yes! I know!"

Four words. Four beautiful words.

By the time I brought Jacob home, Mom was sitting in her
chair, dressed and ready to welcome him. Tears of joy blocked
my vision as I laid my son in her arms and she clucked at him.

They stared at each other.

They knew.

For two more weeks, Mother clucked, smiled and held Jacob.
For two weeks she spoke to my father, her children and
grandchildren in complete sentences. For two miracle weeks, she
gave us joy.

Then she quietly slipped back into a coma and, after visits
from all her children, was finally free of the pain and confines
of a body that no longer did her will.

Memories of my son's birth will always be bittersweet for
me, but it was at this time that I learned an important truth
about living. For while both joy and sorrow are fleeting, and
often intertwined, love has the power to overcome both. And
love can last forever.

Sunday School Lesson On The Front Porch
~~by Cheryl Norwood~~

Sunday afternoon was gloriously beautiful so we had the front door of our
little cottage open, with just the half-glass, half-screen door between the
out-of-doors and us. Just off our little front stoop we have several bird
feeders, and at one point over 30 little goldfinches were devouring thistle
seed.

Suddenly we heard a loud "THUD!". It was so startling that my husband ran
in
from the back study. "What was that?" he asked. I had a sinking feeling
that
one of the little goldfinches must have flown into the glass part of the
door. I was right. "It's a little female finch, honey, and she's hurt," I
said to Mike. She was still breathing, and I could see her little wings
moving slightly. She was lying in the center of our stoop, where she would
be
easy prey to the neighborhood cats. Now, I love cats, am owned by one
myself,
but I keep our cat indoors or on a leash as the law states here, but some
of
my neighbors are not as courteous. "Mike, we can't just leave her there,
she'll get eaten."

"Maybe we should just put her out of her misery, Cheryl," he said to me.
"She
hit pretty hard, harder than I have ever heard one hit a window. She's not
going to make it." "Well, how about we let God decide on whether she lives
or
dies, not us!" I protested. Then we both prayed a little prayer for our
feathery visitor. "We'll give her a half hour, but if she is still not able
to move, we are going to have to be merciful, sweetheart," Mike said, "and
I
will take care of it, I know you can't do it."

I scooped her up gently and put her in pile of leaves to the side of the
stoop where I could observe her from a window but where she would be out of
sight from the rest of the yard. There, she could be watched and protected
from the neighborhood feline ruffians. I sat there in the window, watching
and waiting. Soon a male goldfinch, bright yellow, came within a couple of
inches of our patient, and began to chirp a few notes every minute or two,
as
if to say, "I'm here. Take it easy. Don't be afraid. " He stood there,
keeping an eye on her, encouraging her, protecting her, letting her rest.
After 20 minutes or so, she struggled to her feet. Her partner began to
chirp
loudly and excitedly. "You can do it, you can do it, you can do it," he
chirped (it seemed to me!). And she did! She flew off, and he went after
her,
and they disappeared down the street.

Such a little drama, with such tiny actors, but what a great big truth. The
little lady finch may have been just fine all by herself. Maybe a cat
wouldn't have come along. Maybe she didn't need her friend to help her get
on
her feet again. But God gave her friends and protectors and encouragers and
people to pray for her. He will do the same for you and for me.

He does care for the little sparrow (and goldfinches!) as He cares for all
His creatures, great and small. So the next time you go flying HARD into
that
glass door, whether it's sorrow, pain, worry, failure, grief or worse,
remember that He will make sure someone prays for you; He will put you in a
safe place; He will send an encourager; and He will give you wings to fly
high once again.

~~As seen in 2TheHeart~~

Hello My Friends:)

I just wanted to let you all know that I have not been on-line much for
the past couple of weeks due to some health problems.

We think I may have a bad gallbladder. I went to the dr Wednesday and
again today. My blood work came back negative infection, white blood
cells were fine, I am not anemic this month:), even my platelets are at
an all time high of 148,000, thats great for me, I normally run
98,000-112,000, with 122,000 being a high count for me.

I hae been in ALOT of pain for the past month+ and this week has been
the worse! The dr says if my temperature reaches more than 101°, or if
my pain is more than the pain pills can help, or (my favorite---not) I
find myself driving the porcelean bus (to put it nicely) than I am to
call the triog(sp) nurse.

My normal temp is 97.6° and for the past month it has been running
99.8°-100°. I just wish they would remove my gallbladder and put me
out of my misery!

So, please keep me in your prayers and if I do need it removed I will
have my daughter write and let you know or you just won't hear from me
for a few days:)

Thank you
Love
Sam

SOUL FOOD

I love the taste of T-bone steak, Delicious every bite,
But there's nothing like the Word of God,
For my spiritual appetite.

The Word of God has milk and meat,
And even ice cream and cake.
Take a slice of the Bread of Life,
And coffee to keep us awake.

Open your Bible and turn to Psalms,
For David's famous buffet.
You can drink all the wine of the Word you want,
And still feel fine the next day.

There's enough of the Word for everyone,
And no one has to cheat.
The Word of God is a smorgasbord,
So take all you are able to eat.

Let's have a little long suffering,
Job gives the recipe.
Patience is the main ingredient,
Self denial is the fee.

Wrap that up in temperance,
It may not make much sense,
Cover that with contentment,
Then add some joy for strength.

Let's have love for dessert,
Jesus made this dish,
Cream of joy and piece together,
Sift out all the selfishness.

Add some deeds of righteousness,
Enough to make it sweet.
Humility is the frosting,
That makes the dish complete.

Or are you on a diet,
Cause the race seems hard to run.
For a weight losing menu,
try Hebrews 12 and 1.

Are you suffering from malnutrition,
And don't know what to do?
Your spiritual growth seems hindered,
Try I Peter 2 and 2.

If when every time you battle,
The enemy always wins,
Try some Holy Ghost protein,
And spiritual vitamins.

God's Word can feed millions,
And still have plenty left.
Because the Word of God is Soul Food,
Sent from the World's Greatest CHEF.

>  >> Article written by Betty Martini

>  >>     I have spent several days lecturing at the WORLD ENVIRONMENTAL

and'Spoonful."'
>  >>

an

>  >>United States. I explained I was there to lecture on exactly that
subject.
>  >>
>  >>     When the temperature of Aspartame exceeds 86 degrees F, the wood
>  >>alcohol in ASPARTAME coverts to formaldehyde and then to formic acid,
which
>  >>in turn causes metabolic acidosis. (Formic acid is the poison found in

>  >>sclerosis; thus, people were being diagnosed with having multiple
sclerosis
>  >>in error.   The multiple sclerosis is not a death sentence, where
>  >>methanol toxicity is.
>  >>
>  >>     In the case of systemic lupus, we are finding it has become almost
>  >>As rampant as multiple sclerosis, especially Diet Coke and Diet Pepsi
>  >>drinkers. Also, with methanol toxicity, the victims usually drink
>  >>three to four 12 oz. cans of them per day, some even more. In the cases
>  >>of systemic lupus, which is triggered by ASPARTAME, the victim usually
>  >>does not know that the aspartame is the culprit. The victim continues

becomes
>  >>life threatening.
>  >>
>  >>      When we get people off the aspartame, those with systemic lupus
>  >>usually become asymptotic. Unfortunately, we cannot reverse this
disease.
>  >>On the other hand, in the case of those diagnosed with Multiple
Sclerosis,
>  >>(when in reality, the disease is methanol toxicity), most of the
symptoms
>  >>disappear.  We have seen cases where their vision has returned and even
>  >>their hearing has returned. This also applies to cases of tinnitus.
>  >>
>  >>     During a lecture I said "If you are using ASPARTAME [NutraSweet,
>  >>Equal, Spoonful, etc.] and you suffer from fibromyalgia symptoms,
spasms,
>  >>shooting pains, numbness in your legs, cramps, vertigo, dizziness,
>  >>headaches, tinnitus, joint pain, depression, anxiety attacks, slurred
>  >>speech, blurred vision, or memory loss, you probably have ASPARTAME
>  >>DISEASE!"  People were jumping up during the lecture  saying, "I've got
>  >>this.  Is it reversible?"  It is rampant. Some of the speakers at my
> lecture
>  >>even were suffering from these symptoms. In one lecture attended by
>  >>the Ambassador of Uganda, he told us that their sugar industry is
>  >>adding aspartame! He continued by saying that one of the industry
leader's
>  >>son could no longer walk due in part to product usage!
>  >>
>  >>      We have a very serious problem. Even a stranger came up to Dr.
>  >>Espisto, (one of my speakers) and myself and said, "Could you tell me
>  why so
>  >>many people seem to be coming down with MS?" During a visit to a
>  >>hospice, a nurse said that six of her friends, who were heavy Diet Coke
>  >>drinkers, had all been diagnosed with MS. This is beyond coincidence.
>  >>
>  >>     Here is the problem.  There were Congressional Hearings when
>  >>Aspartame was originally included as a sweetener in 100 different
products.
>  >>Since this  initial hearing, there have been two subsequent hearings,
but
>  >>to no avail.  Nothing has been done. The drug and chemical lobbies
>  >>have very deep pockets.  Now there are over 5,000 products containing
>  >>this chemical, and the PATENT HAS EXPIRED!!!!
>  >>
>  >>      At the time of this first hearing, people were going blind. The
>  >>methanol in the Aspartame converts to formaldehyde in the retina of
>  the eye.
>  >>Formaldehyde is grouped in the same class of drugs as cyanide and
>  arsenic  -
>  >>DEADLY  POISONS!!! Unfortunately, it just takes longer to quietly
>  kill, but
>  >>it is killing people and causing all kinds of neurological problems.
>  >>Aspartame changes the brain's chemistry. It is the reason for severe
>  >>seizures. This drug changes the dopamine level in the brain.  Imagine
what
>  >>this drug does to patients suffering from Parkinson's Disease.  This
drug
>  >>also causes birth defects.
>  >>
>  >>     There is absolutely no reason to take this product. It is NOT A
>  >>DIET  PRODUCT!  The Congressional record said, "It makes you crave
>  >>Carbohydrates and will make you FAT."  Dr. Roberts stated that when
>  >>he got patients off aspartame, their average weight loss was 19 pounds
>  >>per person. The formaldehyde stores in the fat cells, particularly in
the
>  >>hips
>  >>and thighs. Aspartame is especially deadly for diabetics.  All
physicians

>  >>causing many patients to go into a coma. Unfortunately, many have died.
>  >>People were telling us at the conference of the American College of

control.
>  >>Thus, the patients suffered acute memory loss and eventually coma and

>  >>Memory loss is due to the fact that aspartic acid and phenylalanine are

past

>  >>ALZHEIMER'S DISEASE" (1-800-814-9800).  Dr. Roberts tells how aspartame

>  >>Alzheimer's Disease.
>  >>
>  >>      Dr. Blaylock and Dr. Roberts will be writing a position paper
with

severe

>  >>
>  >>     At the Conference of the American College of Physicians, doctors

fax

...But for all their activities in heaven and as regulators of
natural law in the physical universe, what most endears the angels to
humanity is their special involvement in each human life. From
conception and birth until death and beyond, angels are said to
attend and fortify each moment of human life as personal guardians,
guides, comforters, strength-givers and more.

"Every breath of air and ray of light and heat, every beautiful
prospect, is, as it were, the skirt of their garments, the waving of
the robes of those whose faces see God."
--John Henry Newman
