Being a Christian is like being a pumpkin

Being a Christian is like being a pumpkin. God picks you from the patch & washes all the dirt off of you. He cuts off the top and scoops out all the yucky stuff. He removes the seeds of doubt, hate, and greed. He carves you a new smiling face and puts His light inside of you to shine for all the world to see. This was passed on to me.

I loved you the minute I heard your heartbeat

I posted this on my FB page and now I am putting it on my blog.


I loved you the minute I heard your heartbeat. I Loved you the minute you were born. Then I saw your face and fell in love some more. You were only a minute old but I knew I would die for you, and to this day I still would. When you choose to have a child you make a decision to.. allow your heart to walk around outside of your body. Put this on your status if you have a child or children you love more than life

The Time Is Now

I was reading the newspaper this morning and I went to the Dear Abby section and this is what I found, I liked it, so I thought I would put it on my blog for safe keeping to remind me of "The Time Is Now" by Author Unknown

If you are ever going to love me,
Love me now, while I can know
The sweet and tender feelings
Which from true affection flow.
Love me now
While I am living.
Do not wait until I'm gone
And them have it chiseled in marble,
Sweet words on Ice-cold stone.
If you have tender thoughts of me,
Please tell me now.
If you wait until I am sleeping,
Never to awaken,
There will be death between us
And I won't hear you then.
So, if you love me, even a little bit,
Let me know it while I am living
So I can treasure it.
