LEARNING TO KEEP YOUR WORD
LIFE IS A GIFT
Today, before you say an unkind word,
Think of someone who can't speak.
Before you complain about the taste of your food,
Think of someone who has nothing to eat.
Before you complain about your husband or wife,
Think of someone who's crying out to GOD for a companion.
Today, before you complain about life,
think of someone who died too early on this earth.
Before you complain about your children,
think of someone who desires children but they're barren.
Before you argue about your dirty house someone didn't clean or sweep,
Think of the people who are living in the streets.
Before whining about the distance you drive,
Think of someone who walks the same distance with their feet.
And when you are tired and complain about your job,
Think of the unemployed, the disabled, and those who wish they had your job.
But before you think of pointing the finger or condemning another,
Remember that not one of us is without sin.
And when depressing thoughts seem to get you down,
Put a smile on your face and think: you're alive and still around.

HI!
HERE IS A STORY TO LIVE BY.
There was a blind girl who hated herself because she was blind. She hated
everyone, except her loving boyfriend. He was always there for her. She told
her boyfriend, "If I could only see the world, I will marry you."
One day, someone donated a pair of eyes to her. When the bandages came off,
she was able to see everything, including her boyfriend.
He asked her, "Now that you can see the world, will you marry me?" The girl
looked at her boyfriend and saw that he was blind. The sight of his closed
eyelids shocked her. She hadn't expected that. The thought of looking at
them the rest of her life led her to refuse to marry him.
Her boyfriend left in tears, and days later wrote a note to her saying:
"Take good care of your eyes, my dear, for before they were yours, they were
mine."
The boy had basically donated his own yes to her.
This is how the human brain often works when our status changes.

Only a very few remember what life was like before,
And who was always by their side in
the most painful situations.
the most painful situations.
That’s exactly what we are to God.
When we were in need, God sent us His best and His only but after all our needs are met we have forgotten Him and even kicked Him out of our businesses.
When it comes to Him we are so so BUSY

Yeah, we ought 2 keep our word just like JC did, Just Imagine the Helper hadn't been sent like He had promised be4 ascension,May be no one would have been able 2 post aptly what u are reading now.As Christians we Cant avoid getting caught up in such denials but remember Jesus' proverbial turning the flip side of the chic if one side is slapped. In spite of such people turning to be the exact opposite of the expected, we cant hate them rather show them love. For the most effective weapon to destroy your enemy is by loving them, even the profane people use this Theory/Thought and it works.
It isn't that whenever we show love and is not welcome we 2 withdraw. Ok, Graphically would u stop buying if u were cheated or deliberately denied yo Change in the first shop! Of course No. So Brethren what would stop u from spreading the love. Just appreciate what u have and sown.
