New Thing

You may have had more than your share of unfair, negative experiences. But know this: God wants to do a new thing. He wants to give you a new beggining. Don't give up. When one door closes, God will always open another. If the doors close, He'll open a window!

God always wants to give you a fresh beginning. He still has a great plan for your life. Do you know when that's going to happen? It will commence the moment you quit looking back. Whenever you quit grieving over what you've lost. Nothing will keep you from the good things of God as much as living in the past.

You may feel that life has knocked you down through dissapointments or unfair situations. But whenever you do, don't stay down. Get back up again, dust yourself off. If you can't find anybody to encourage you, learn to encourage yourself. Get up in the morning, put your shoulders back, look in the mirror, and say "I've come too far to stop now.I may be knocked down, but I'm not knocked out. I'm going to get back up again. I know I'm a victor, not a victim."

Unconditional Love

A story is told about a soldier who was finally coming home after having fought in Vietnam.

He called his parents from San Francisco .

"Mom and Dad, I'm coming home, but I've a favor to ask. I have a friend I'd like to bring home with

me." "Sure," they replied, "we'd love to meet him."

"There's something you should know the son continued, "he was hurt pretty badly in the fighting.

He stepped on a land mind and lost an arm and a leg. He has nowhere else to go, and I want him to

come live with us."

"I'm sorry to hear that, son. Maybe we can help him find somewhere to live."

"No, Mom and Dad, I want him to live with us." "Son," said the father, "you don't know what you're

asking. Someone with such a handicap would be a terrible burden on us. We have our own lives to

live, and we can't let something like this interfere with our lives. I think you should just come home

and forget about this guy. He'll find a way to live on his own."

At that point, the son hung up the phone. The parents heard nothing more from him. A few days

later, however, they received a call from the San Francisco police.

Their son had died after falling from a building, they were told. The police believed it was suicide.

The grief-stricken parents flew to San Francisco and were taken to the city morgue to identify the

body of their son. They recognized him, but to their horror they also discovered something they

didn't know, their son had only one arm and one leg.

The parents in this story are like many of us. We find it easy to love those who are good-looking or

fun to have around, but we don't like people who inconvenience us or make us feel uncomfortable.

We would rather stay away from people who aren't as healthy, beautiful, or smart as we are.

Thankfully, there's someone who won't treat us that way. Someone who loves us with an

unconditional love that welcomes us into the forever family, regardless of how messed up we are.

Tonight, before you tuck yourself in for the night, say a little prayer that God will give you the strength

you need to accept people as they are, and to help us all be more understanding of those who are

different from us!!!

There's a miracle called Friendship that dwells in the heart You don't know how it happens Or when

it gets started But you know the special lift It always brings and you realize that Friendship Is God's

most precious gift!

Friends are a very rare jewel, indeed. They make you smile and encourage you to succeed.

They lend an ear, they share a word of praise, and they always want to open their hearts to us.

Jon & Kate Plus 8

I've been following the Jon & Kate Plus 8 shows from the very first episode until now. I love the shows. The kids are beautiful and awesome. They are the cutest kids I have ever seen. I love watching them every day! They make me LOL:) Jon and Kate are great parents. Kate is what I will one day strive to be liked as mom:) Even though things aren't great now due to the divorce speculations but I am sure they will work it out.. Jon and Kate - I really hope that everything works out for the best for you two! you are awesome and have an awesome family. I know that It's hard enough raising your children, it's even harder when you have the world watching every move you make.

This couple, like every married couple, is going through trials and tribulations. Some may say they've made poor choices. Some may say the Gosselins are coordinating an orchestrated business plan. Actually, we don't really know and what does it matter? These are two people...who are married...and who have children.
Please know that there are people out here who only wish you good things. I'll pray the best for your family..

A lovely story

Think this is the 3rd or 4th time I've read this article...I think the story is so touching, and the lesson it holds out for us to follow. We, should read this again...

A Lovely Story..

Twenty years ago, I drove a cab for a living.
When I arrived at 2:30 a.m., the building was dark except for a single lightin a ground floor window. Under these circumstances, many drivers would just honk once or twice, wait a minute, then drive away. But, I had seen too many impoverished people who depended on taxis as their only means of transportation. Unless a situation smelled of danger, I always went to the door. This passenger might be someone who needs my assistance, I reasoned to myself. So I walked to the door and knocked. "Just a minute", answered a frail, elderly voice. I could hear something being dragged across the floor.
After a long pause, the door opened. A small woman in her 80's stood before me. She was wearing a print dress and a pillbox hat with a veil pinned on it, like somebody out of a 1940s movie. By her side was a small nylon suitcase. The apartment looked as if no one had lived in it for years. All the furniture was covered with sheets. There were no clocks on the walls, no knickknacks or utensils on the counters. In the corner was a cardboard box filled with photos and glassware. "Would you carry my bag out to the car?" she said. I took the suitcase to the cab, then returned to assist the woman. She took my arm and we walked slowly toward the curb. She kept thanking me for my kindness.

"It's nothing", I told her. "I just try to treat my passengers the way I would want my mother treated". "Oh, you're such a good boy", she said.When we got in the cab, she gave me an address, then asked,"Could you drive through downtown?""It's not the shortest way," I answered quickly."Oh, I don't mind," she said. "I'm in no hurry. I'm on my way to a hospice".I looked in the rear-view mirror. Her eyes were glistening."I don't have any family left," she continued. "The doctor says I don't have very long."I quietly reached over and shut off the meter. "What route would you like me to take?" I asked.For the next two hours, we drove through the city. She showed me the building where she had once worked as an elevator operator. We drove through the neighborhood where she and her husband had lived when they were newlyweds. She had me pull up in front of a furniture warehouse that had once been a ballroom where she had gone dancing as a girl.

Sometimes she'd ask me to slow in front of a particular building or corner and would sit staring into the darkness, saying nothing.As the first hint of sun was creasing the horizon, she suddenly said, "I'm tired. Let's go now."We drove in silence to the address she had given me.It was a low building, like a small convalescent home, with a driveway that passed under a portico.Two orderlies came out to the cab as soon as we pulled up.They were solicitous and intent, watching her every move. They must have been expecting her. I opened the trunk and took the small suitcase to the door.The woman was already seated in a wheelchair."How much do I owe you?" she asked, reaching into her purse."Nothing," I said."You have to make a living," she answered."There are other passengers," I responded.Almost without thinking, I bent and gave her a hug. She held onto me tightly."You gave an old woman a little moment of joy," she said."Thank you."I squeezed her hand, then walked into the dim morning light.

Behind me, a door shut. It was the sound of the closing of a life.I didn't pick up any more passengers that shift. I drove aimlessly lost in thought. For the rest of that day, I could hardly talk.What if that woman had gotten an angry driver, or one who was impatient to end his shift?What if I had refused to take the run, or had honked once, then driven away?On a quick review, I don't think that I have done anything more important in my life. We're conditioned to think that our lives revolve around great moments.But great moments often catch us unaware-beautifully wrapped in what others may consider a small one.

PEOPLE MAY NOT REMEMBER EXACTLY WHAT 'YOU DID, OR WHAT YOU SAID, BUT THEY WILL ALWAYS REMEMBER HOW YOU MADE THEM FEEL. Life may not be the party we hoped for, but while we are here we might as well dance. Every morning when I open my eyes, I tell myself that it is special. Every day, every minute, every breath truly is a gift from God.

A small touching story mainly for professionals. ..

Nice article again...

A man came home from work late, tired and irritated, to find his 5-year old son waiting for him at the door.
SON: "Daddy, may I ask you a question?"
DAD: "Yeah sure, what is it?" replied the man.
SON: "Daddy, how much do you make an hour?"
DAD: "That's none of your business. Why do you ask such a thing?" the man said angrily.
SON: "I just want to know. Please tell me, how much do you make an hour?"
DAD: "If you must know, I make Rs.100 an hour."
SON: "Oh," the little boy replied, with his head down.
SON: "Daddy, may I please borrow Rs.50?"


The father was furious, "If the only reason you asked that is so you can borrow some money to buy a silly toy or some other nonsense, then you march yourself straight to your room and go to bed. Think about why you are being so selfish. I work hard everyday for such this childish behavior." The little boy quietly went to his room and shut the door. The man sat down and started to get even angrier about the little boy's questions. How dare he ask such questions only to get some money? After about an hour or so, the man had calmed down, and started to think: Maybe there was something he really needed to buy with that Rs.50 and he really didn't ask for money very often. The man went to the door of the little boy's room and opened the door.

"Are you asleep, son?" He asked. "No daddy, I'm awake," replied the boy. "I've been thinking, maybe I was too hard on you earlier" said the man. "It's been a long day and I took out my aggravation on you.. Here's the Rs.50 you asked for." The little boy sat straight up, smiling. "Oh, thank you daddy!" He yelled.Then, reaching under his pillow he pulled out some crumpled up bills. The man saw that the boy already had money, started to get angry again. The little boy slowly counted out his money, and then looked up at his father."Why do you want more money if you already have some?" the father grumbled."Because I didn't have enough, but now I do," the little boy replied. "Daddy, I have Rs.100 now. Can I buy an hour of your time? Please come home early tomorrow. I would like to have dinner with you."The father was crushed. He put his arms around his little son, and he begged for his forgiveness.It's just a short reminder to all of you working so hard in life. We should not let time slip through our fingers without having spent some time with those who really matter to us, those close to our hearts. Do remember to share that Rs.100 worth of your time with someone you love.
If we die tomorrow, the company that we are working for could easily replace us in a matter of days.But the family & friends we leave behind will feel the loss for the rest of their lives. And come to think of it, we pour ourselves more into work than to our family.

One of the best article I have ever read...................

The train has started moving. It is packed with people of all ages, Mostly with the working men and women and young college guys and gals.
Near the window, was seated an old man with his 30-year old son. As the train moves by, the son is overwhelmed with joy as he was thrilled with the scenery outside. "See dad, the scenery of green trees moving away is very beautiful"
This behaviour from a 30-year old son made the other people feel strange about him. Every one started murmuring something or other about this son. "This guy seems to be a crack." newly married Anoop whispered to his wife.
Suddenly it started raining... Rain drops fell on the travellers through the opened window. The 30- year old son, filled with joy "see dad, how beautiful the rain is."

Anoop's wife got irritated with the rain drops spoiling her new suit. Anoop said, "Can't you see it's raining, you old man, if your son is not feeling well, get him soon to a mental asylum and don't disturb public henceforth"
The old man hesitated first and then in a low tone replied " we are on the way back from the hospital, my son got discharged today morning , he was a blind by birth and last week only he got his vision, this rain and nature are all new to his eyes. Please forgive us for the inconvenience caused..."

"The things we see may be right from our perspective until we know the truth. But when we know the truth our reaction to that will hurt even us. So try to understand the problem better before taking a harsh action".
