What If?

I'm kinda feeling a little homesick today and a little bored so I've been going through some old stuff and reading random things online. I glanced at this message but I didn't pay much notice. Today I actually read it and I started to wonder each question and reflecting my life. If God acted with me the way I act with Him I guess I'll be very disappointed. So I know he's so sad and disappointed with me yet He loves me. I'm so thankful to have Him!

So read this and think about it!

What if God couldn't take the time to bless us today because we couldn't take the time to thank Him yesterday?

What if God decided to stop leading us tomorrow because we didn't follow Him today?

What if we never saw another flower bloom because we grumbled when God sent the rain?

What if God didn't walk with us today because we failed to recognize it as His day?

What if God took away his message because we failed to listen to the messenger?

What if God didn't send His only begotten Son because He wanted us to be prepared to pay the price for sin?

What if the door of the church was closed because we did not open the door of our heart?

What if God stopped loving and caring for us because we failed to love and care for others?

What if God would not hear us today because we would not listen to him yesterday?

What if God answered our prayers the way we answer His call to service?

What if God met our needs the way we give Him our lives?


My Dearest Friend

I was going through some old things and I found this poem which I love. It reminds me of my friends and growing up.

I thank God everyday
For sending my dearest friend,
You've been there through darkened days
And will be till the end,

You my friend have dried my tears
And helped my heart to mend,
I want to thank you again
For being my dearest friend,

In times of my despair
You've helped me to pull through,
And when I'm feeling better
It is because of you,

There are times when I will fall
And I know that you will too,
We'll be there for each other
And each one will get through,

You have helped me many times
And I know you will again,
I just wanted to thank you
For being my dearest friend.
