A Heart of Thanksgiving

A heart of thanksgiving...
Like music from the heart flowing...
Played on a silver bagpipe...
Gloriously greets the morning, the day or night...
Its melody removes the bitterness from the sweet...
A place where laughter and joy embrace as they meet...
Heart-music loved by its players...
Charmed and adored by its hearers...
A heart overflowing with thanksgiving...
Sing songs that are always healing...
Played on the strings of the air...
You can sense it so tangibly that God is near...
Remedy from your demons of fears...
Therapy for your mountains of cares...
Like the beating of the drums...
No murmur, the voice of the spirit quietly hums...
A heart of gratitude...
Bestows praise with an attitude...
A heart of thanksgiving keeps the man...
In tune to the rhythm of God and His plan...
Most perfect way to be led by the hand...
Things thought impossible, I now Know and believe I can...
A heart of thanksgiving causes the soul to see...
How blinded the eyes can be...
For misery is but the devils’ ballroom...
To craftily deceive the heart that all is gloom...
A faithful heart of thanksgiving...
Like music from the heart and streams of water flowing...
‘Tis God’s gentle reminder He cares...
Heaven resides in our hearts, God lives there...

I have asked the Lord to do this for you: If you’ve got an unwanted guest  in your body such as an infection, virus, inflammation or disease of any sort.  I pray that without hesitation your immune system will step in, like a bouncer who means business.  I command your body to release white blood cells and other chemicals that will  destroy these threats right now  in the name of  His son Jesus Christ. That elite squad of agents that zap invaders in your body -- like bacteria, viruses, and fungi -- In this hour, we come into agreement that they must now zoom through your entire body and defend you, powered by the blood of Christ Jesus.  We close all ports of entry into your body by these viruses and activate the wisdom needed to stay well and healthy in this hour. If you are not ill, as these  aliens  position themselves to attack your body they will not be able to get in through a cut, ride in on something you ate, filter through the air, or wait on a coin

Called to Love

By Dr. Jermaine Gordon -
I have been treated badly in recent times by persons who really should be the 'keepers of my soul' and people who claim that they 'love' me. On more than one occasion I was tempted to reciprocate the treatment. It takes great strength to love and restrain oneself, especially when you know you are not deserving of the ill treatment. The bible reminds us that we ought to ,"...Love our enemies, bless them that curse us, do good to them that hate us, and pray for them which despitefully use us and persecute us;" -St. Matt. 5:44 God expects that even when others are 'deserving' of our bad treatment and have fully earned the right to be 'hated', that we will love them and love them without discrimination. Think about it, it is so difficult to even forgive and love those we call friends whenever they hurt us, more so an enemy. Anyone who believes it is easy to bless those who curse us should think about it carefully. Quite often when we ha
