Handle With Love

Relationships resemble a rubber band;

They stretch in ways we don’t understand!

At times they’re strong and reliable,

Sometimes they’re weak and very pliable.

When they break, we try to mend them;

As a tailor would finish a hem.

When they are no longer in use,

We always find an excuse.

Always handle each one with proper care;

So they remain firm, avoiding a tear!

I Come to Realize:

That your life is planned out! I knew it since high school—I predicted something that would happen when I reached near a certain age and it did—In fact, I was so ill that my doctor couldn’t sleep for his concern in me. (I had been in intensive care unit for a number of days with heart racing, collapsed lung) As I was healing, he asked, “What keeps me going?”

I told him thru prayers and faith. I was so sick, even watching TV was far from my mind—I only concentrated on getting better—

As I went thru the doorstep of my home, tears rushed down my face—knowing that I just about didn’t have this chance. I realized I had more to do in life. (I had a home health care nurse take care of me for a week or two).

When I went to the surgeon’s office for the health check, my doctor went straight to the waiting area to see my two children (unexpected).  I knew then one reason why I had to live.

Ever since then, I view life at a different angle; for one reason it’s because I’m still here and another reason is that I felt HIS presence and peace during my struggles in this life.

There are signs of his presence to this day; some are able to feel and see it and some cannot see.  But HE does work in our lives; through our heart, mind, and soul if we only allow, notice or pay close attention to it—because He planned it out for us!

And Many Who Believe in HIM-

Life’s Beauty

Everything in life has its place

      Just as noticeable as a trace.

When we follow along each pace

      We often wonder what we’ll face.

Continuing on as if we’re in a race

      We should take the time to say grace.

Every moment, in any particular case

      Reflects beauty; as flowers in a vase.
