She seeketh wool, and flax,and worketh willingly with her hands.

Chalenge # 1 December 14-21

Who can find a virtuous woman? For her price is far above rubies.
The heart of her husband doth safely trust in her,so that he shall have no need of spoil.
She will do him good and not evil all the days of her life.


Be someone others can trust, if you have a husband give him reason to trust you, if you don't give others reasons to trust you.
do unto others as you would have them do unto you.

post on your accomplishments and failings.
( if you don't know how to post contact me paarthea@gmail.com i will make you a member and all you have to do is log on and click post.)

thank you God

This Sunday the pastor of our little church preached a sermon on God’s adoption of us. I realized I had a poem that went along with his sermon, his four sermon points were; 1 God has pity on us, 2 God protects us, 3 God Chastises us, 4 God will never cast us out.

Please forward this poem to as many people as you can. I pray it will spread hope among you.

THANK YOU GOD, FOR LOVING ME, AND FORGIVING ME.

~ A letter to GOD our Father in heaven Who, I thank for His never-ending love and forgiveness. ~

Father,

I run from you all the time,

Will I ever run so far?

That I will not be welcomed

Back into your arms?

No!

Even unto the end of my life

You will always love me,

No matter what I do.

I keep thinking,

“This is it, I’ve gone too far.”

I sit and cry.

You bring me back

Even though I don’t know it.

You hold me, and comfort me,

You tell me your will for me,

And,

You love me.

You tell me you love me,

I am thankful.

When something happens,

I blame you for it,

When really I should thank you for

You promise that it will work out for good

In the end.

I run, oh, ever so far and long.

Then seeing and knowing what I do is wrong,

I run farther trying to escape you.

I’m angry with you.

I rebel and run farther.

You leave for a while,

All those who follow You unquestioningly,

And chase after me with loving,

Loving, loving mercy,

Mercy that never goes dry,

Mercy that is always waiting for me,

Mercy that is ever existent, and loving.

Your love reaches beyond the extent of the universe!

You listen to my prayers.

When I ask forgiveness,

You are waiting for me,

Right behind me carrying me,

Even though I don’t know it.

You love me and will never leave me.

Though I may run from east to west,

You will follow me.

Though I run from west to east,

You still follow me

With your ever-standing love,

Love that never dies,

Love that never turns to hate.

The only true and pure love,

Your love,

You are God and your love is eternal.

You love me,

And I

Love you.

~ To: God our loving Father, who never gives up on us. ~

~ From: the running sinner, who has been forgiven, and will ever be forgiven. ~
