Does this sound like you?

ATTENTION NON-PET OWNERS who visit our home and complain about our pets.

1) They live here, you don't.

2) If you don't want their hair on your clothes, stay off the furniture. That's why they call it 'Fur'-niture.

3) Chances are, I love my pets more then I like you.

4) To you, they are animals. To me, they are my family who are hairy..., walk on all fours & don't talk back!

Re-post if you love your pet

FRIENDS

It has been said that everlasting friends can go long periods of

time without speaking and never question the friendship. These types of

friends pick up like they just spoke yesterday, regardless of how long it

has been or how faraway they live, and they don't hold grudges.

They .....understand that life is busy...but...you will ALWAYS... love

them...

Dancing With God

        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 realizes that, 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.
        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...
        My prayer for you today is that God's blessings
        and mercies are upon you on this day and everyday.
        May you abide in God, as God abides in you.
        Dance together with God, trusting God to lead
        and to guide you through each season of your life.
        This prayer is powerful and there is nothing attached.
        If God has done anything for you in your life,
        please share this message with someone else.
       There is no cost but a lot of rewards;
        so let's continue to pray for one another.
        And I Hope You Dance Through 2011

Monday Night Bible Study

Since we did not get to meet last night, here is a question to ponder for our next meeting.

Why was the sea voyage of Paul to Rome in the Bible? 

Fairview Baptist Church - Audio/Video

I thought I would share a sermon given by Bryan Wright of Fairview Baptist Church last Sunday Night. It is thought provoking and not very politically correct. You can find it at this link. Fairview Baptist Church - Audio/Video
