Hi Kathleen,
Thank you for your comment, it's a reminder how truely blessed I am to be a child of God, We must always continue to smile and share the faith of God, we never know just a smile to someone could change the rest of their day. God Bless you:oD
Hello Kathleen, and I hope your day is filled with lots of wonderful sunshine! :-) Thanks for the email address. It would be nice to talk to you more. God bless you. <>/body>
Hi Kathleen, Thanks for leaving me those great words from scripture. We are blessed indeed! We praise God for that. Whether we have plenty or little, we give thanks and praise our wonderful LORD.
Don't go for looks, they can deceive.
Don't go for wealth even that fades away.
Go for someone who makes you smile.
There are moments in life
when you really miss someone
that you want to pick them up
from your dreams and hug them.
Hope you dream of that someone.
Dream what you want to dream,
go where you want to go,
be what you want to be,
because you have only one life
and one chance to do all the things
you want in life.
May you have...
Enough happiness to make you sweet
Enough trials to make you strong
Enough sorrow to keep you human
Enough hope to make you happy
And enough money to buy gifts.
When one door of happiness closes, another opens.
But we often took so long at the closed door,
that we don't see the one which has been opened for us.
The best kind of friend is the one
you could sit on a porch, swing with,
never saying a word and then walk away feeling
like that was the best conversation you've had.
It's true that we don't know
what we've got until we lose it,
but it's also true that we don't know what
we've been missing until it arrives.
Always put yourself in other's shoes.
If you feel that it hurts you,
it probably does hurt the person too.
A careless word may kindle a strife;
A cruel word may wreck a life
A timely word may level stress
A lovely word may heal and bless.
The beginning of love is to let those we love
be perfectly themselves and
not to twist them with our own image,
otherwise we love only the reflection
of ourselves we find in them.
The happiest people don't necessarily
have the best of everything,
they just make the most of everything
that comes along the way.
Maybe God wants us to meet a few wrong people
before meeting the right one so that
when we finally meet the right person,
we should know how to be grateful for that gift.
It takes a minute to have a crush on someone,
an hour to like someone and a day to love someone
- but it takes a lifetime to forget someone.
Happiness lies for those who cry,
those who hurt,
those who have searched
and those who have tried.
For only they can appreciate the importance
of people who have touched their lives.
Love is when you take away the feeling,
the passion, the romance
and find out you still care for that person.
A sad thing about life is that when you meet
someone who means a lot to you
only to find out in the end that it was never
bound to be and you just have to let go.
Love starts with a smile,
develops with a kiss
and ends with a tear.
Love comes to those who still hope
even though they've been disappointed,
to those who still believe
even though they've been betrayed,
need to love those who still love,
even though they've been hurt before.
It hurts to love someone,
and not to be loved in return
but what is most painful is to love someone
and never finds the courage
to let the person know how you feel.
The brightest future will always
be based on a forgotten past.
You can't go on well in life until you let go
of your past failures and heartaches.
Never say goodbye when you still want to try;
Never give up when you still feel you can take it;
Never say you don't love that person anymore
when you can't let go.
Giving someone all your love
is never an assurance that they'll love you back.
Don't expect love in return,
just wait for it to grow in their hearts
but if it doesn't,
be content it grew in yours.
There are things you love to hear
but you would never hear it from
the person whom you would like to hear it from,
but don't be deaf to hear it from the person
who says it with his heart.
When you were born, you were crying
and everyone around you was smiling.
Live your life to the fullest so that when you die,
you're smiling and everyone around you is crying.

Hi Kathleen,
I am very Happy to get your comment.Yes, many times we don't know or count our blessings.We take everything for granted and ask for more and rarely take time to Praise and Thank GOD for all the Blessings we get.Let us Praise and Thank HIM for All His Goodness and Blessings.Let us Praise Our LORD JESUS together
Hi Kathleen,
Praise Jesus. Thank you so much for all the comments that you leave me. Wish I could thank you enough the only thing I can say is Thank You. Love you lots. May the Good Lord keep using you Mightly for His Glory.
Hi Kapatid kumusta? Salamat nga pala sa mga comment. GOD Speed! :-)
The laws of nature
God's will controls the smallest matters, and
takes into account the smallest events in each
life. A Spanish proverb says, "A leaf does not
stir on the tree--without the will of God." God's
hand is in every event. We talk of the the laws
of nature--but what is nature? It is not something
independent of God. The laws of nature are simply
God's laws. Nothing takes place that is contrary
to the divine will. Nothing--no storm, no earthquake,
no cyclone, no tidal wave--ever gets out of God's
control.
This world is not controlled by chance, nor by any
blind fate--but by Him who loved us so much, that
He gave His son to die for us.
Okay Sister, my intrest is peaked about you. Thanks for all the words of incouragement. They are great help to me and I suppose others too.
Share with me who you are and how you came to know Jesus if you would like to. I am in Arkansas and will be moving to California again in September because my ministry is there and in Hawaii. I came to know Jesus there in 1970 I was part of the Jesus street movement of that day.
I would love to go back to those simple days but I am afraid they are gone. This world is a lot more complcated than in those days. The people may be different but they still need to know Jesus which never changes with the times. Those who don't know him are lost forever unless someone shows them the way home. We are the light house for the world we must alway be ever concerned for the lost seeking to bring them home to the Son of God. Again thank you for your enlightment and keep on keeping on.
Your brother in Yeshua.

Hello kathleen,just had to write and say how encouraging you are on this site.I have'nt met you yet but I can see by the little ''snippets'' you put here and there ,and your photos that Our Lord is using you in a very powerful and loving way Gods speed for now Andrew.
Bless you for the words of encouragement you sent to me though I was/am a stranger to you. It couldn't have come at a better time! Thank you. You have by your words blessed me more than you will ever know. I will see you someday in Heaven if not on this earth.
Hey!!

Prayer
Heavenly Father loves you and knows your needs (see D&C 84:83). He wants you to communicate with Him through prayer. As you make a habit of approaching God in prayer, you will come to know Him and draw ever nearer to Him. Your Heavenly Father is always ready to hear and answer your prayers. (See True to the Faith, 118–19.)
“The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints teaches its members to use special language in addressing prayers to our Father in Heaven. . . . [We use] special language of reverence and respect” (Dallin H. Oaks, “The Special Language of Prayer,” New Era, Jan. 2006, 3).
“Class officers care for each class member. . . . They pray for her” (Church Handbook of Instructions, Book 2, 218–19).
Your Heavenly Father is always ready to hear and answer your prayers. Principles for praying:
Pray often, at least every morning and every night.
Pray silently and vocally.
Personal private prayer is essential.
Pray with your family.
When giving public prayer, remember you are communicating with Heavenly Father. Do not worry what others may think of what you say. Offer a simple, heartfelt prayer.
Remember the needs of others in your prayers, including those whom you serve (see Alma 34:27).
Remember that prayer is two-way communication. At the close of your prayer, take time to pause and listen.
Never give in to the idea that you are not worthy to pray. Satan wants to convince you that you must not pray (see 2 Nephi 32:8).
(See True to the Faith, 118–22.)
thank you for your words of encouragements,i went to visit my wife today and she has got this attitude towards me almost every weekend and when it suits her to talk to me nicely she does and when ever she needs some things to be done for her the first person she phones is me eg like going to the library,she talks to me nicely,i feel like i am wanted but not needed and whenever she is around her mother she gets this arrogant way of talking to me,she just starts shouting at me for no apparent reason. well i pray and hope that you have had a very blessed day filled with the love of god.please pray for me as my court case is on wednesday
Hi Kathleen,
Many thanks for your comments.They are very inspiring and poetic.Our GOOD LORD LOVES US and that is the greatest blessing which we have in our lives.Even when we stray away he loves us and forgives us.Many times we take things for granted not even thanking HIM for all the Blessings we enjoy.MAY GOD BLESS YOU ALL
Dear Friend in Christ,
On my way back to home from a mission trip a couple of days back, I met a young man in the train. I was praying for an opportunity to share about God's Love to someone. He came and sat besides me asking all about me. Later I also asked about him and finally came to the point and asked him whether he ever heard of Jesus. He said yes and also been to church several times. OS I asked him,"what do you feel about Jesus", He said "actually I dont believe in any God", He added "all I believe is in myself and I have been living lke this since my childhood". SO I asked Him, why do you feel so? what made you to believe that thers no God? He said do you see people in the name of religion kill so many innocent animals, don't they have the right to Live Just Like Us? aren't they Just Like us? This Young man because of his compassion on the animals he did not eat any meat, fish or meat of any living creatures... since He belives that They also have the right to live.And he went on to say How bad people become rich and good people remain poor? Why unjust people prosper and good people remain the same way? He had thrown a lot of q's like hat. Specially he asked me, why do people become ghosts after they are killed but why not animals? after I shared about Jesus to Him and His sacrifice on the cross of calvary, I also answered every q that he asked me and was not able to give any reply to my q's.
Finally I asked Him a question have you ever prayed to God?, He said, "yes, once but God did not answer me, so I don't believe that thers a God" I asked him do you believe thers air? can you see it? he said he can experience it, and I said in the same way you can experience God. The he asked me why people suffer? I told him all about sin, and fall of man kind that brought total destruction upon humans... and told him the remedy that we have in Jesus, through His sacrifice on the cross. I also told Him that Jesus is coming soon, and all thats happening in this age gives us the message that He is indeed coming soon... atlast I saw some kind of acceptance in his talk and face. he atlast said let me have your phone number and I gave to him and Tod Him to Give hsi life to Jesus. He kinda laughed and said let me try. I told him why can't you try Him Just once and see...I could understand that he want to try him but was determined to defend his self... But I know that he will be a different person. right now I am in the process of communicating with him...Plz Remember Victor in your prayers for his salvation.
yours in Jesus

Hi,
I now know what true Christianity feels like to have you around with such wise words that you have to offer. God bless you and give you your heart desires in Jesus name.
Hilary
Hello! Greetings to you and your family may the good Lord continue to bless and keep you an yours safe, and may you always remain lifted in the Lord. Thanks for the invite I am very knew to this chat, so be patient with me, I would like to know is that a money tree in your photos. I just bought one it is simply a beautiful part of life.
CAUSE ME TO HEAR YOUR LOVING KINDNESS IN THE
MORNING, FOR IN YOU I DO TRUST; CAUSE ME TO KNOW
THE WAY IN WHICH I SHOULD WALK, FOR I LIFT UP MY
SOUL TO YOU.
( PSALM 143:8 *NKJV )
As you may know, when we invite God into our life, and
ask HIM to take control of our "life and will," we start on the
journey to become the person that we were meant to be.
For it is written: IF ANYONE IS IN CHRIST, HE IS A NEW
CREATION; OLD THINGS HAVE PASSED AWAY; BEHOLD,
ALL THINGS HAVE BECOME NEW.
( 2 CORINTHIANS 5:17-18 )
This is because God begins to reshape us into that person.
It is written: BUT NOW, O LORD, YOU ARE OUR FATHER;
WE ARE THE CLAY, AND YOU OUR POTTER; AND ALL
WE ARE THE WORK OF YOUR HAND. ( ISAIAH 64:8 )
Now as we become that new person, God will lead us
to the path that He chosen for us to walk. It is then that we
become filled with the Holy Spirit, as well as, THE FRUIT
OF THE SPIRIT WHICH IS LOVE, JOY, PEACE, PATIENCE,
KINDNESS, GOODNESS, FAITHFULNESS, GENTLENESS,
AND SELF-CONTROL. AGAINST SUCH THINGS THERE
IS NO LAW. ( GALATIANS 5:22-23 )
So friend, why not ask God to take control of your "life
and will" today, if you haven't already? Also say to Him:
SHOW ME YOUR WAYS, O LORD; TEACH ME YOUR
PATHS. LEAD ME IN YOUR TRUTH AND TEACH ME,
FOR YOU ARE THE GOD OF MY SALVATION. Amen.
( PSALM 25:4-5 )
Now my friend, have a wonderful day, and remember that
God loves you, and so do I!
Hello Kathleen aldea I look foward to talking to you , I am knew to this, but excited to meet and learn from fellow other belivers. May God contiue to Bless and keep you safe and keep being uplifting!
Kathleen, I have to say that was one of the best messages I have ever received in my entire life! Thank you so much for being my friend and caring enough to post the best! God bless you. You are truly an angel on Earth. :-) Have a wonderful night. Your sister in Christ, Mandy P.S. I don't know if you already sent the same message to Casy, but she is my sister, and if you don't mind, will you send it to her too? I know she would love it! Thanks so much.
just recieved an email and i thought that i should share it with you
It Is Hard For A Prodigal When -
Nothing I say or do seems to shock or upset you.
"I forgive you" is uttered as often as my name.
"Don't worry about it" is your answer to everything I have done.
You let me talk about you-know-who and you just smile.
I see you growing spiritually when I am living in sin.
You build me up to our kids so they still love me.
You have zipped your lips.
You are content living with almost nothing.
You agree to anything and everything I ask.
You depend on Jesus, and not on me, to be your provider.
I can't push your buttons like I once did.
You make it impossible for me to hate you, or even to dislike you.
You seem to remember all the things I like.
You remind me that you will be waiting until you die.
I know the home I left could always be my refuge from the storms
of life.
I suspect everyone is reminding you how I will never change, and
adding how old dogs don't learn new tricks. I am not a dog and I
am not out to learn tricks. I set out to be happy without you,
but every time you show me unconditional love, instead of anger
and attempting to get even, something is being changed in my
heart, one small bit at a time.
People are also probably telling you not to be a doormat for me,
but they have it all wrong. You are not being a door mat, but a
welcome home mat.
The prodigal said:
"I never loved you."
The Lord said:
"I have loved you with an everlasting love." (Jeremiah 31:3)
The prodigal said:
"You never satisfied me."
The Lord said:
"You open your hand and satisfy the desire of every living
thing." (Psalm 145:16)
The prodigal said:
"I am never coming back."
The Lord said:
"He who goes out weeping carrying seed to sow, will return
with songs of joy, carrying sheaves with him." (Psalm 126:6)
The prodigal said:
"Stop praying for me!"
The Lord said:
"Bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat
you." (Luke 6:28)
The prodigal said:
"I hate you."
The Lord said:
"Everyone who does evil hates the light for fear that his
deeds will be exposed." (John 3:20)
The prodigal said:
"You act so holy."
The Lord said:
"For God did not call us to be impure, but to live a holy
life." (I Thessanlonians 4:7)
The prodigal said:
"You are a hypocrite."
The Lord said:
"Do not judge, or you too will be judged." (Matthew 7:1)
The prodigal said:
"I don't know what to do."
The Lord said:
"Come, follow me," Jesus said, and I will make you fishers
of men." (Mark 1:17)
These words are being written at 6 AM. Charlyne will find them
on her vanity as a good morning greeting. How do I know all
those things wayward spouses say? Sadly, they have each been
uttered in our home. Today, as you prepare to face another day
without your spouse serving the Lord look through the eyes of
faith at the morning note your mate will leave you, in God's
timing.
You know how u look back on your life. I think how did i make it that far without God.very easy Jesus carried me the Holy Spirit guided me and God accepted me through the shed blood of Jesus.Not because of anything i have done but what He Jesus did for me.And i send a hot welcome to u my sister in the body of Christ. as we make God very sick if we be luke warm(Rev.3:16) so stay on fire for God Amen!!!
thanks for sharing that message with me, its absolutely beautiful, and just came right when i needed to hear it. God Bless you : D I am enjoying the refreshing rain today, I hope you have a wonderful week!
"Direct my footsteps according to Your Word;
let no sin rule over me." Psalm 119:133
This is a prayer which should always be on our lips.
We should get our direction from God, not once in
our life only, when we first give ourselves to Him;
not at the opening of each day only, as we go forth
to the day's task; not merely at the beginning of
each new piece of work or of each fresh task--but
every moment, for each step.
That is what "walking with God" means.
We may make this so real, that we shall look up
into God's face continually, asking, "What next,
dear Lord? What shall I do now? Which course
shall I take today? How shall I do this duty?"
If we can but have God's guidance and help for
the little short steps--we need not fear for the
long miles--the great stretches of road. If each
step is of His directing--the long miles will be
paths of His choosing.
"Direct my footsteps according to Your Word;
let no sin rule over me." Psalm 119:133
thanks alot sister, you be blessed also surely i can confess that with the continous food you are giving to me the touch and great change is coming.thanks alot and be filled with that spirit of love in abundace
'I have heard your prayer and seen your tears; I will heal you.'
2 Kings 20:5 NIV
Just sitting waiting for healing to happen doesn't help; it only lengthens the process. Working to become a positive influence is what moves things forward. If you want to help:
1.Listen. When your loved one needs to talk, listen without trying to defend, explain, rationalize or excuse your behavior. Don't try to correct their 'misperceptions' or lessen their pain by minimizing it.
2. Validate. Don't tell somebody, "You shouldn't feel that way." When people talk about their pain, often they're doing the work necessary to help them heal. By letting them know their feelings are legitimate rather than making them feel weak or silly, you enable them to work through the negative emotions.
3. Apologize. Yes, again! Whoever said, "Love means never having to say you're sorry," didn't know much about human relationships. Every genuine apology promotes healing. A heartfelt "I'm so sorry" is medicine to a wounded soul. So apply it till it's no longer needed - and your loved one will let you know when that is.
4. Repair. Offer to help repair the hurt you've caused. "I know I've wounded you, and I really want to know what I can do to help heal the damage." Genuinely spoken, those words realign and make you part of the solution, not just the cause of the problem.
God said, "I have heard your prayers and seen your tears; I will heal you," and the sooner you become actively engaged in promoting the healing process, the sooner you'll get out of the penalty box and back on the field.

Remember the needs of others in your prayers, including those whom you serve (see Alma 34:27).
Remember that prayer is two-way communication. At the close of your prayer, take time to pause and listen.
Never give in to the idea that you are not worthy to pray. Satan wants to convince you that you must not pray (see 2 Nephi 32:8).
(See True to the Faith, 118–22.)

On my way back to home from a mission trip a couple of days back, I met a young man in the train. I was praying for an opportunity to share about God's Love to someone. He came and sat besides me asking all about me. Later I also asked about him and finally came to the point and asked him whether he ever heard of Jesus. He said yes and also been to church several times. OS I asked him,"what do you feel about Jesus", He said "actually I dont believe in any God", He added "all I believe is in myself and I have been living lke this since my childhood". SO I asked Him, why do you feel so? what made you to believe that thers no God? He said do you see people in the name of religion kill so many innocent animals, don't they have the right to Live Just Like Us? aren't they Just Like us? This Young man because of his compassion on the animals he did not eat any meat, fish or meat of any living creatures... since He belives that They also have the right to live.And he went on to say How bad people become rich and good people remain poor? Why unjust people prosper and good people remain the same way? He had thrown a lot of q's like hat. Specially he asked me, why do people become ghosts after they are killed but why not animals? after I shared about Jesus to Him and His sacrifice on the cross of calvary, I also answered every q that he asked me and was not able to give any reply to my q's.
Finally I asked Him a question have you ever prayed to God?, He said, "yes, once but God did not answer me, so I don't believe that thers a God" I asked him do you believe thers air? can you see it? he said he can experience it, and I said in the same way you can experience God. The he asked me why people suffer? I told him all about sin, and fall of man kind that brought total destruction upon humans... and told him the remedy that we have in Jesus, through His sacrifice on the cross. I also told Him that Jesus is coming soon, and all thats happening in this age gives us the message that He is indeed coming soon... atlast I saw some kind of acceptance in his talk and face. he atlast said let me have your phone number and I gave to him and Tod Him to Give hsi life to Jesus. He kinda laughed and said let me try. I told him why can't you try Him Just once and see...I could understand that he want to try him but was determined to defend his self... But I know that he will be a different person. right now I am in the process of communicating with him...Plz Remember Victor in your prayers for his salvation.
yours in Jesus

MORNING, FOR IN YOU I DO TRUST; CAUSE ME TO KNOW
THE WAY IN WHICH I SHOULD WALK, FOR I LIFT UP MY
SOUL TO YOU.
( PSALM 143:8 *NKJV )
As you may know, when we invite God into our life, and
ask HIM to take control of our "life and will," we start on the
journey to become the person that we were meant to be.
For it is written: IF ANYONE IS IN CHRIST, HE IS A NEW
CREATION; OLD THINGS HAVE PASSED AWAY; BEHOLD,
ALL THINGS HAVE BECOME NEW.
( 2 CORINTHIANS 5:17-18 )
This is because God begins to reshape us into that person.
It is written: BUT NOW, O LORD, YOU ARE OUR FATHER;
WE ARE THE CLAY, AND YOU OUR POTTER; AND ALL
WE ARE THE WORK OF YOUR HAND. ( ISAIAH 64:8 )
Now as we become that new person, God will lead us
to the path that He chosen for us to walk. It is then that we
become filled with the Holy Spirit, as well as, THE FRUIT
OF THE SPIRIT WHICH IS LOVE, JOY, PEACE, PATIENCE,
KINDNESS, GOODNESS, FAITHFULNESS, GENTLENESS,
AND SELF-CONTROL. AGAINST SUCH THINGS THERE
IS NO LAW. ( GALATIANS 5:22-23 )
So friend, why not ask God to take control of your "life
and will" today, if you haven't already? Also say to Him:
SHOW ME YOUR WAYS, O LORD; TEACH ME YOUR
PATHS. LEAD ME IN YOUR TRUTH AND TEACH ME,
FOR YOU ARE THE GOD OF MY SALVATION. Amen.
( PSALM 25:4-5 )
Now my friend, have a wonderful day, and remember that
God loves you, and so do I!

just recieved an email and i thought that i should share it with you
It Is Hard For A Prodigal When -
Nothing I say or do seems to shock or upset you.
"I forgive you" is uttered as often as my name.
"Don't worry about it" is your answer to everything I have done.
You let me talk about you-know-who and you just smile.
I see you growing spiritually when I am living in sin.
You build me up to our kids so they still love me.
You have zipped your lips.
You are content living with almost nothing.
You agree to anything and everything I ask.
You depend on Jesus, and not on me, to be your provider.
I can't push your buttons like I once did.
You make it impossible for me to hate you, or even to dislike you.
You seem to remember all the things I like.
You remind me that you will be waiting until you die.
I know the home I left could always be my refuge from the storms
of life.
I suspect everyone is reminding you how I will never change, and
adding how old dogs don't learn new tricks. I am not a dog and I
am not out to learn tricks. I set out to be happy without you,
but every time you show me unconditional love, instead of anger
and attempting to get even, something is being changed in my
heart, one small bit at a time.
People are also probably telling you not to be a doormat for me,
but they have it all wrong. You are not being a door mat, but a
welcome home mat.
The prodigal said:
"I never loved you."
The Lord said:
"I have loved you with an everlasting love." (Jeremiah 31:3)
The prodigal said:
"You never satisfied me."
The Lord said:
"You open your hand and satisfy the desire of every living
thing." (Psalm 145:16)
The prodigal said:
"I am never coming back."
The Lord said:
"He who goes out weeping carrying seed to sow, will return
with songs of joy, carrying sheaves with him." (Psalm 126:6)
The prodigal said:
"Stop praying for me!"
The Lord said:
"Bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat
you." (Luke 6:28)
The prodigal said:
"I hate you."
The Lord said:
"Everyone who does evil hates the light for fear that his
deeds will be exposed." (John 3:20)
The prodigal said:
"You act so holy."
The Lord said:
"For God did not call us to be impure, but to live a holy
life." (I Thessanlonians 4:7)
The prodigal said:
"You are a hypocrite."
The Lord said:
"Do not judge, or you too will be judged." (Matthew 7:1)
The prodigal said:
"I don't know what to do."
The Lord said:
"Come, follow me," Jesus said, and I will make you fishers
of men." (Mark 1:17)
These words are being written at 6 AM. Charlyne will find them
on her vanity as a good morning greeting. How do I know all
those things wayward spouses say? Sadly, they have each been
uttered in our home. Today, as you prepare to face another day
without your spouse serving the Lord look through the eyes of
faith at the morning note your mate will leave you, in God's
timing.
Because He lives,I can also live
God bless

"Direct my footsteps according to Your Word;
let no sin rule over me." Psalm 119:133
This is a prayer which should always be on our lips.
We should get our direction from God, not once in
our life only, when we first give ourselves to Him;
not at the opening of each day only, as we go forth
to the day's task; not merely at the beginning of
each new piece of work or of each fresh task--but
every moment, for each step.
That is what "walking with God" means.
We may make this so real, that we shall look up
into God's face continually, asking, "What next,
dear Lord? What shall I do now? Which course
shall I take today? How shall I do this duty?"
If we can but have God's guidance and help for
the little short steps--we need not fear for the
long miles--the great stretches of road. If each
step is of His directing--the long miles will be
paths of His choosing.
"Direct my footsteps according to Your Word;
let no sin rule over me." Psalm 119:133

'I have heard your prayer and seen your tears; I will heal you.'
2 Kings 20:5 NIV
Just sitting waiting for healing to happen doesn't help; it only lengthens the process. Working to become a positive influence is what moves things forward. If you want to help:
1.Listen. When your loved one needs to talk, listen without trying to defend, explain, rationalize or excuse your behavior. Don't try to correct their 'misperceptions' or lessen their pain by minimizing it.
2. Validate. Don't tell somebody, "You shouldn't feel that way." When people talk about their pain, often they're doing the work necessary to help them heal. By letting them know their feelings are legitimate rather than making them feel weak or silly, you enable them to work through the negative emotions.
3. Apologize. Yes, again! Whoever said, "Love means never having to say you're sorry," didn't know much about human relationships. Every genuine apology promotes healing. A heartfelt "I'm so sorry" is medicine to a wounded soul. So apply it till it's no longer needed - and your loved one will let you know when that is.
4. Repair. Offer to help repair the hurt you've caused. "I know I've wounded you, and I really want to know what I can do to help heal the damage." Genuinely spoken, those words realign and make you part of the solution, not just the cause of the problem.
God said, "I have heard your prayers and seen your tears; I will heal you," and the sooner you become actively engaged in promoting the healing process, the sooner you'll get out of the penalty box and back on the field.

Each one is dear to me
For all the smiles and glowing hearts
I seem to always see.
They're there in times of good and bad
Their love, they always share
They fill me with unending joy
And show me that they care.
I see them as the shining stars
God placed them there with care
I may not always see their smiles
But know they're always there.
