down to my last cry..

I don't know why I keep on holding on
To this feeling forbids by the world
I don't want to be called as fool
Nor a wrecker of ones home

I wanted to get hurt
But i don't have right
I wanted to cry
But, those tears for what?

What I've shown 
was the best that I am
and what i gave
was the best that I have

Yeah, It's hard to admit
That it was my fault
For letting myself
To someone fall

..and now i am down to my last cry..

no time to pray

I knelt to pray but not for long
I had too much to do.
I had to hurry and get to work
For bills would soon be due.

So I knelt and said hurried prayer,
And jumped up off my knees.
My Christian duty was now done
My soul could rest at ease.

All day long I had no time
To spread a word of a cheer
No time to speak of Christ to friends
They'd laugh at me I'd fear.

No time, no time, too much to do
That was my constant cry,
No time to give to souls in need
but at last the time, the time to die.

I went before the Lord,
I came, I stood with downcast eyes.
For in his hands God held a book
It was the book of life

God looked into His book and said
"your name I cannot find".
I once was going to write it down...
But never found the time

..morning everyone..have a blessed day ahead!!

          The ancient road from Jerusalem to Jericho is a narrow,treacherous path along a deep gorge in the judean wilderness. It's name is Wadi Kelt, but it's known as the valley of the shadow, for this is the location that inspired David's 23rd Psalm. The place itself offers little reason to compose such a hopeful poem.
           When David wrote  "Yea though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I fear no evil" (v4).. he was in a place where evil was an ever present reality. Yet he refused to give in to fear. He wasn't expressing hope that God would abolish evil so that he could pass through safely ; he was saying that the presence of God gave him the confidence to pass through difficult places without fear of being deserted by Him. In another Psalm, David said that the Lord was his hope (71:5).
           Many claim to have hope, but only those who hope Christ can claim it with certainty.Hope comes not from strength, intelligence, or favorable circumstances, but from the Lord. As Maker of heaven and earth. He alone has the right to promise hope and the power to keep the promise.
               
         Hope for the Christian is a certainty- because its basis is CHRIST..

a last farewell

        After being diagnosed with terminal cancer, 47- year old Randy Pausch returned to Canegie Mellon University to deliver a final lecture to colleagues, students, and friends. The professor of computer science thought that perhaps 150 people might show up. Instead the 400- seat auditorium was packed. For an hour Randy opened his heart to them in a humorous, insightful, and moving farewell that was focused more on living than dying. Within weeks the videotaped lecture had been seen by millions on the internet and later become the seed of a best selling book. Those facing death often have unusually clear perspective on what is truly important in life.
        The Apostle Paul's last farewell has inspired countless followers of Christ through the centuries. "The time of my departure is at hand",wrote Paul. "I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith"
(2 Tim. 4:6-7). Paul instruction to Timothy spans the ages to challenge us as well. The letter begins and ends with God's grace and in between is the celebration of the unceasing faithfulness of God.
       A message from the dying can give purpose to the living.  Paul's triumphant finale 'to him be glory forever and ever" is a message we can all live by.

        ...if we are ready to die,..we are ready to live..
