In Days Like These

God the Father, God the Son, God the Holy Ghost speaks to us through his word and through actions of man; the word speaks of the wickedness of man. Man's heart waxing cold, lovers of their selves. God destroyed a whole city because man was lusting after other men. Who would not believe the word that's speaking of times like these: Cold hearted murderers; killing innocent people, baby's being taken advantage of. If Satan has never been on his game, he is busy now destroying as the word speaks. Saints, we need to get on our "A" game. We can't stop the word from fulfilling but we can keep urging man to turn to God!

The Innocence Of Prayer

The innocence of prayer

Before day in the morning

Calling on Jesus

Calling Out names

Oh help us all Lord

For we know not what we do

Bless the innocence
 Touch somebody's heart today

Oh mighty God

The homeless

The government

Each and every one of us

Protect our children

Touch our body

We cry out to you for all

You know us better than we know ourselves

You know our beginning and our end

Help us make the right choices

Help us to help others

Help us to give you honor at all times

All these prayers we pray in your name

Amen! 

 

ANGELS

Angel on Earth/Angel in Heaven

 

21 years of age, life gone, poof as a cloud of smoke. Born to an unwed mother, her life was short lived but she touched so many others. She generated life where ever she went; always pleasant and inspiring to others. It wasn't what she said it was the way she incorporated her personality into the atmosphere. As time went on, in her own way, she was seeking the Lord. Stricken with sickness, she sort the Lord as her refuge, him  and  only him. The night she was found in demise a tape was found she was making/singing the song "Praise Him." Even now, I can imaging her knowing it was her time and she and only she made peace with the Lord.

 



Refill

Have you ever wondered why churches have so many services? Wednesday night services, bible study, Sunday school, church, church, and more church.

Refill
You refill your car when needed. When it's time to go to work try calling in saying, " I can't refill my car with gas"!

You restock your grocery. Try going to the kitchen and there is no food for a months.

In a political position, we have election occasionally to elect new officers. Why?
To bring in newideas and to keep one person from becoming so powerful.

When you are born, you go to school to enhance your intellect so that you
may be able to contribute to society.

So is it, with the word of God! Nothing stays the same. Everything need to be
 reborn, renewed and reinstated.

So, is it any difference with the word of God? Hmmm!

Give Me My Flowers

Flowers bloom and are beautiful. I would Love to smell and see mine before I am buried in the soil which the flowers grow.

Valentine's Day



February has long been celebrated as a month of romance, and is like a mystery.. Valentine's Day, as we know it today, contains a traces of both Christian and ancient Roman tradition.

  Saint Valentine is recognized in the  Catholic Church with at least three different saints named Valentine or Valentinus, all of whom were martyred.  Valentine was a priest who served during the third century in Rome. When Emperor Claudius II decided that single men made better soldiers than those with wives and families, he outlawed marriage for young men. Valentine, realizing the injustice of the decree, defied Claudius and continued to perform marriages for young lovers in secret. When Valentine's actions were discovered, Claudius ordered that he be put to death.

While some believe that Valentine's Day is celebrated in the middle of February to commemorate the anniversary of Valentine's death or burial--which probably occurred around A.D. 270--others claim that the Christian church may have decided to place St. Valentine's feast day in the middle of February in an effort to "Christianize" the pagan celebration of Lupercalia. Celebrated at the ides of February, or February 15, Lupercalia was a fertility festival dedicated to Faunus, the Roman God of agriculture, as well as to the Roman founders Romulus and Remus.
Lupercalia survived the initial rise of Christianity and but was outlawed—as it was deemed “un-Christian”--at the end of the 5th century, when Pope Gelasius declared February 14 St. Valentine's Day. It was not until much later, however, that the day became definitively associated with love. During the Middle Ages, it was commonly believed in France and England that February 14 was the beginning of birds' mating season, which added to the idea that the middle of Valentine's Day should be a day for romance.

Valentine greetings were popular as far back as the Middle Ages, though written Valentine's didn't begin to appear until after 1400. The oldest known valentine still in existence today was a poem written in 1415 by Charles, Duke of Orleans, to his wife while he was imprisoned in the Tower of London following his capture at the Battle of Agincourt. (The greeting is now part of the manuscript collection of the British Library in London, England.) Several years later, it is believed that King Henry V hired a writer named John Lydgate to compose a valentine note to Catherine of Valois.

 Valentine's Day Greetings In the United States Valentine's Day began to be popularly celebrated around the 17th century. By the middle of the 18th, it was common for friends and lovers of all social classes to exchange small tokens of affection or handwritten notes, and by 1900 printed cards began to replace written letters due to improvements in printing technology. Ready-made cards were an easy way for people to express their emotions in a time when direct expression of one's feelings was discouraged. Cheaper postage rates also contributed to an increase in the popularity of sending Valentine's Day greetings.
