Sara & friends,

POTY or not...I know I''m a winner already for having you all bless my life the way it is blessed !!! THANK YOU ALL  from the bottom of my heart....THANK YOU FOR BEING MY FRIEND !!!


 

Heres something I wrote sometime last year, inspired by a friend who was so dejected that they didnt win...as they expected !!!! It is so important to know who you are in Christ !!! Precious enough for HIM to die for you !! Now that makes me so special & a winner right ???? So its always good to be blessed to be a blessing...as God would want us to be!!! and friends you are just that !!!! I AM BLESSED :-)

If this world never gave me

A title or a reward,

Or called me by sweet names,

I’d never care at all.

For all it has to give

Comes to nothing at all,

And at the end of each day

You’re still left empty and lost.

I know that I am precious,

To the one who died for me

And gifted with a faith,

That’s really set me free,

Nothing that this world can give,

Could replace the love

That my Savior showed me

and set me high above.

And I know that I am special,

Cos’ he called me friend,

And it’s HIS hand that holds me

And takes me ‘round the bend.

I find I’m never wanting,

What this world has to give,

For in His love I’m made complete,

And blessed as long as I live.
