DAILY INSPIRATION

                          SEPTEMBER 1, 2008

                         You can't pluck a rose,

                         All fragrant with dew,

                  Without some of it's fragrance

                           Remaining on you.

                                    When the crowded city

                    Where life is swift and fleet

                     Do you ever look at Jesus

                        Upon the busy street?

Today be assured you are not alone---the Lord is with you.

                          When I am troubled

                        And lost in deep despair

                      I bundle all my troubles up

                         And go to God in prayer.

Today ponder the question, "What does God want me to do with my life?"

                       That the power of prayer

                             Is made stronger

                 By placing the world in your care!

                  When someone does a kindness

                         It always seems to me

                  That's the way God up in heaven

                         Would like us all to be
