BEST POEM IN THE WORLD

I was shocked, confused, bewildered, As I entered Heaven's door,

Not by the beauty of it all, Nor the lights or its decor..

But it was the folks in Heaven, Who made me sputter and gasp--

The thieves, the liars, the sinners,, The alcoholics and the trash.

There stood the kid from seventh grade, Who swiped my lunch money twice.

Next to him was my old neighbor, Who never said anything nice.

Herb, who I always thought, Was rotting away in hell,

Was sitting pretty on cloud nine, Looking incredibly well.

I nudged Jesus, 'What's the deal? I would love to hear Your take.

How'd all these sinners get up here? God must've made a mistake.

'And why's everyone so quiet, So somber - give me a clue.'

'Hush, child,' He said, 'they're all in shock.

No one thought they'd be seeing you.'

JUDGE NOT.

Remember...Just going to church doesn't make you a

Christian any more than standing in your garage makes you a mechanic.

Every saint has a PAST...

Every sinner has a FUTURE 

TO PONDER OVER

'To get something you never had, you have to do something you never did.'  When God takes something from your grasp, He's not punishing you, but merely opening your hands to receive something better.  Concentrate on this sentence... 'The will of God will never take you where the Grace of God will not protect you.'  

If God had a refrigerator, your picture would be on
it. If He had a wallet, your photo would be in
it. He sends you flowers every spring. He sends you a sunrise
every morning Face it, friend - He is crazy about you!

God didn't promise days without pain, laughter without sorrow, sun
without rain, but He did promise strength for the day, comfort for the tears, and light for the
way.

If God brings you to it, He will bring you through it.

A POEM ABOUT OUR GIRLFRIENDS

Someone will  always be prettier.

Someone will always be  smarter.

Some of their houses will be bigger.

Some will drive a better car.

Their children will do better in school. And their husband will fix more things around the house.

So let it go, and love you and your circumstances. Think about it! The prettiest woman in the world can have hell in her heart.

And the most highly favored woman on your job may be unable to have children.

And the richest woman you know, she's got the car, the house, the

 clothes~~~~

might be lonely.

And the word says, 'If I have not Love, I am nothing.' So, again, love you.  Love who you are. Look in the mirror in the morning and smile  and say, 'I am too Blessed to be Stressed  and too Anointed, to be Disappointed!' 'Winners make things happen~ ~ Losers  let things happen.'

Be 'Blessed' Ladies~~~~~ and pass this on to encourage another woman. 'To the world you might be one  person, but to the one person you just sent this to, it could mean so  much.'

THE BRICK  
A young and successful executive was traveling down a neighborhood street,
going a bit too fast in his new Jaguar. He was watching for kids darting out from between parked
cars and slowed down  when he thought he saw something. As his car passed, no children appeared.
Instead, a brick smashed into the Jag's side door! He slammed on the brakes and backed the Jag back to
the spot where the brick had been thrown. The angry driver then jumped out of the
car, grabbed the nearest kid and pushed him up against a parked car shouting,
 

 "What was that all about and who are you? Just what the heck are you doing? That's a new car and that
brick you threw is going to cost a lot of money. Why did you do it?' The young boy was apologetic.

 "Please, mister...please, I'm sorry but I didn't know what else to do," He pleaded. "I threw the
brick because no one else would stop."

With tears dripping down his face and off his chin, the youth pointed to a spot just around a parked car.

 'It's my brother," he said, "he rolled off the curb and fell out of his wheelchair and I can't lift him up."

Now sobbing, the boy asked the stunned executive, "Would you please help me get him back into his wheelchair? He's hurt and he's too heavy for me.'

Moved beyond words, the driver tried to swallow the rapidly swelling lump in his throat He hurriedly lifted the handicapped boy back into the wheelchair, then took out a linen handkerchief and dabbed at the fresh scrapes and cuts. A quick look told him everything
was going to be okay.

 "Thank you and may God bless you," the grateful child told the stranger.

Too shook up for words, the man simply watched the boy push his wheelchair-bound brother down the sidewalk
toward their home. It was a long, slow walk back to the Jaguar. The damage was very noticeable, but the driver never bothered to repair the dented side door. He kept the dent there to remind him of this message:

Don't go through life so fast that someone has to throw a brick at you to get your attention! God whispers in our souls and speaks to our hearts.. Sometimes when we don't have time to listen, He has to throw a brick at us. It's our choice to listen or not.
