An inspirational and Motivational poem for Blessing

A lovely poem of blessings....

As I was walking
Down life's highway
Many years ago

I came upon a
Sign that read

Heavens Grocery Store..

When I got a
Little closer

The doors swung
Open wide

And when I came
To myself

I was standing
Inside..

I saw a host of
Angels.

They were
Standing everywhere

One handed me a
Basket

And said 'My
Child shop with care..'

Everything a
Human needed
Was in that
Grocery store

And what you
Could not carry
You could come
Back for more

First I got some
Patience.

Love was in that
Same row.

Further down was
Understanding,
You need that
Everywhere you go..

I got a box or
Two of Wisdom
And Faith a bag
Or two.

And Charity of
Course
I would need some
Of that too..

I couldn't miss
The Holy Ghost
It was all over
The place.

And then some
Strength
And Courage to
Help me run this race.

My basket was
Getting full
But I remembered
I needed Grace,

And then I chose
Salvation for
Salvation was for
Free

I tried to get
Enough of that to do
For you and me..

Then I started to
The counter
To pay my grocery
Bill,

For I thought I
Had everything
To do the Masters
Will.

As I went up the
Aisle
I saw Prayer and
Put that in ,

For I knew when I
Stepped outside
I would run into
Sin.

Peace and Joy
Were plentiful,
The last things
On the shelf.

Song and Praise
Were hanging near
So I just helped
Myself.

Then I said to
The angel

'Now how much do
I owe?'

He smiled and
Said

'Just take them
Everywhere you go.'

Again I asked
'Really now,

How much do I
Owe?'

'My child' he
Said , 'God paid your bill
A long long time
Ago.'

This poem has
Been sent to you
With love and for
Blessings.

It originated in
The Netherlands
And has been
Around the world 9 times.

The blessing has now
Come to you and
You will receive
Showers of blessings ....

You do not have to forward or pay anything.....
As this message
Has no price...

But send it on to
Someone who
needs blessings.

East Berlin and West Berlin - Inspirational story

Loved this: Back in the days when Germany was divided, a huge wall separated East and West Berlin.   One day, some people in East Berlin took a truck load of garbage and dumped it on the West Berlin side.🙄  The people of West Berlin could have done the same thing, but they didn't. Instead they took a truck load of canned goods, bread, milk and other provisions, and neatly stacked it on the East Berlin side.☺  On top of this stack they placed the sign:   *“EACH GIVES WHAT HE HAS"*  How very true! You can only give what you have.  What do you have inside of you? Is it hate or love?  Violence or peace?  Death or life? Capacity to build or Capacity to destroy?  What have you acquired over the years?  *"EACH GIVES WHAT HE HAS"*  Think about it!☺

Interesting Story and Lesson on Two Seas - Dead Sea & Sea Of Galilee

*Here is an interesting story on two seas with some interesting lessons.* I had heard of Dead Sea in school. No one ever told me this side of the story. You may find it interesting. I look forward to your perspective. A tale of Two Seas   Sitting in the Geography class in school, I remember how fascinated I was when we were being taught all about the Dead Sea. As you probably recall, the Dead Sea is really a Lake, not a sea (and as my Geography teacher pointed out, if you understood that, it would guarantee 4 marks in the term paper!) It’s so high in salt content that the human body can float easily. You can almost lie down and read a book! The salt in the Dead Sea is as high as 35% - almost 10 times the normal ocean water. And all that saltiness has meant that there is no life at all in the Dead Sea. No fish. No vegetation. No sea animals. *Nothing lives in the Dead Sea.* And hence the name: Dead Sea. While the Dead Sea has remained etched in my memory, I don't seem to ...

Dust If You Must - Ladies this is for each & every one of you.

Ladies this is for each & every one of you. Remember ... a layer of dust protects the Wood beneath it. 'A house   becomes a home when you can write 'I love you' on the furniture .'    I used to spend at least 8 hours every weekend making sure things were just perfect - 'in case someone came over'.  Finally I realized one day that no-one came over; they were all out living life and having fun! NOW, when people visit, I don't have to explain the 'condition' of my home . They are more interested in hearing about the things I've been doing while I was away living life and having fun.  If you  haven't figured this out yet, please heed this advice. Life is short. Enjoy it!  Dust if you must  ........    but wouldn't it be better to paint a picture or write a letter, bake cookies or a cake and lick the spoon or plant a  seed, ponder the difference between want and need?  Dust if you must,   but th...
