Good Morning Pauline,

Thanks for the message for me to come back and see people such as Rusty that have thanked me for being a friend and for helping others!

Ever since I joined AdlandPro 2 years ago I have tried very hard to help people, to lift them up, to pray for them and be there for them when they needed someone to be by their side! I try to become friends with many, there are so many more people that I have not had the opportunity to talk with and become good friends with yet, but hopefully in time will do so!

I thank you Pauline for this forum, for being a friend and for sending me many messages of scripture on a daily basis. You are truly a very blessed woman of God and an inspiration to many here! Thank you for just being you!

I want to thank a few friends, and I am sorry if I do not mention everyone right now, but a few have really been there for me and I appreciate it very much! A big "Thank You" to my Mumsie Nan, to Joe Buccheri, to Rusty, To Joe Downing, to Arild Haukeland, to Jerilyn, to Michael Derowin, to Kari, to Deborah Skovran & to Donna S...both of my lovely & sweet Sisters!

I huge thank you to my husband, Rick Martin, for being the awesome person that you are and for being there for me and loving me always! I have been truly blessed to have you in my life!

And above all else, Thank you God for blessing me everyday, for allowing me to love you and to you for loving me unconditionally, for helping me to be who I am and who you want me to be...Thank You God! GOD IS GREAT! AL-HAMDULLAH! TO YOU I GIVE PRAISE!

Christians - By Maya Angelou

When I say... "I am a Christian"
I'm not shouting "I'm clean livin'."
I'm whispering "I was lost,
Now I'm found and forgiven."

When I say... "I am a Christian"
I don't speak of this with pride.
I'm confessing that I stumble
and need Christ to be my guide.

When I say... "I am a Christian"
I'm not trying to be strong.
I'm professing that I'm weak
And need His strength to carry on.

When I say... "I am a Christian"
I'm not bragging of success.
I'm admitting I have failed
And need God to clean my mess.

When I say... "I am a Christian"
I'm not claiming to be perfect,
My flaws are far too visible
But, God believes I am worth it.

When I say... "I am a Christian"
I still feel the sting of pain.
I have my share of heartaches
So I call upon His name.

When I say... "I am a Christian"
I'm not holier than thou,
I'm just a simple sinner
Who received God's good grace, somehow!


grace n peace to you all my friends, luv u much !

Hello my beautiful sister Pauline,

This looks like a good place to say thank you to all of the wonderful friends in AdlandPro for the beautiful birthday wishes!

It truly was the best one I can remember in a long time-but this is to let people know that you don't know how your words can affect someone who may be in a bad situation spiritually, mentally, emotionally.

It may seem like an impersonal medium to those who do not have this blessed arena-but we know that it is so much more.

It has become (thanks Bogdan) a cyber front porch where we gather in the cool of the evening to swap stories with our best friends and sometimes-even do a little business.

A virtual port in a storm.

I sometimes feel guilty that I can't get around to them (forums) all to hang out, but as we know there is a time to reap and a time to sow.

With what looks to be years of work ahead of me and my neighbors, here in New Orleans, it is truly an honor and a pleasure to have this place to return to; to soothe the war wounds of the day and be lifted up in spirit.

I love you all-and to those I have not yet met; I'm sure I'll love you too when we meet.

                 



To all my friends, a message of love........
