Thankyou Kathy, for giving me an uplift,My troubles seem to be small now, compaired to all those people in Mississippi. God gave me a great gift, knowing my beloved husband when he was alive. Here is a little Poem I found online. God, SPEAK TO ME... The man whispered, "God, speak to me." And a meadowlark sang. But, the man did not hear. Then the man yelled, "God, speak to me!" Thunder rolled across the sky. But, the man did not listen. The man looked around and said, "God, let me see you." And the stars shined brightly. But the man did not notice. And the man shouted, "God, show me a miracle." And a life was born. But the man did not know. So, the man cried out in despair, "Touch me God, and let me know you are here." Whereupon, God reached down and touched the man. But the man brushed the butterfly away and walked on. So remember, don't miss out on a blessing because it isn't packaged the way that you expect. Take notice of the blessings around you. God Bless You Belinda

Kathy, that is so beautiful. Here is an explanation of the 23rd Psalm that was emailed to me and I just thought it would be appropo for this forum. Thank you for sharing. God Bless You and All in the AdLandPro Community. Dalora Anderson mailto:daltins.adland@veretekk.com http://daltins.veretekk.com/ This is an eye opener. Some probably never thought nor looked at Psalm 23 in this way, even though they say it over and over again. The Lord is my Shepherd - That's Relationship! I shall not want - That's Supply! He maketh me to lie down in green pastures - That's Rest! He leadeth me beside the still waters - That's Refreshment! He restoreth my soul - That's Healing! He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness - That's Guidance! For His name sake - That's Purpose! Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death - That's Testing! I will fear no evil - That's Protection! For Thou art with me - That's Faithfulness! Thy rod and Thy staff they comfort me - That's Discipline! Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies - That's Hope! Thou anointeth my head with oil - That's Consecration! My cup runneth over - That's Abundance! Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life - That's Blessing! And I will dwell in the house of the Lord - That's Security! Forever - That's Eternity! Face it; the Lord loves you. Send this to the people you love. I thought this was pretty special, just like YOU!!! What is most valuable is not what we have in our lives, but WHO we have in our lives!

Hi Kathy, We all need a reminder of God's presence all around us. He is everywhere, we just need to see by opening our eyes. I loved your poem, thank you for sharing it. Also, thanks to you Belinda for sharing your post. That was beautiful. May the Lord keep you in His care, Cheryl
