today's Daily Bread speaks much to me, as I am a prodigal who was blessed to be welcomed home by our Father 25 years ago.

I dont think we can ever fully comprehend the depths of God's love for *ALL* of His children, and I pray we would never ever begrudge anyone His blessing and acceptance.

Here is the link to today's Daily Bread message:

Quote:
Welcome Home by Tammy Trent
I was taken back when You took me in
Just to wipe my tears away
You made no demands chose not to blame
Though I knew You had the right to
And I saw the years I wasted
Searching everywhere in vain
Finding nothing to believe in
Until I finally heard you say

Welcome Home My mercy's waiting
Welcome Home to open arms
There's no shame in your returning
Though you may have wandered far
Welcome Home

That was years ago so far away
At an altar on my knees
But I can still recall like yesterday
How Your love forever changed me
Oh I see how You've been faithful
Though I've often caused you pain
And I've learned you won't forsake me
When I need to hear you say

Welcome Home My mercy's waiting
Welcome Home to open arms
There's no shame in your returning
Though you may have wandered far
Welcome Home

You know, I'm glad I stopped in here. As I was trying to cheer myself up today, I was reminded of something I read somewhere, "Count your blessings, not your problems." I tried to take that to heart yesterday when I was feeling bad about being alone at Christmas. I did make me feel better to realize that I do have some blessings. Even though I have been unemployed for almost a year now, I have my own home, heat and food. Some aren't so lucky. Trying to have faith and courage and believing in myself is the hard part.

Thank you so much for this.

Lightbulb to all Belayers :)
Encouragement today for all who give of themselves to help others along the way

A word of encouragement can make the difference between giving up or going on.

http://www.rbc.org/odb/odb-12-30-07.shtml

Quote:
Sometime in our lives we all have pain
We all have sorrow
But if we are wise we know that there's
Always tomorrow

Lean on me when you're not strong and
I'll be your friend
I'll help you carry on
For it won't be long till I'm gonna need
Somebody to lean on

Please swallow your pride if I have things
You need to borrow
For no one can fill those of your needs
that you won't let show

Just call on me brother when you need a hand
We all need somebody to lean on
I just might have a problem that you'd understand
We all need somebody to lean on

Lean on me when you're not strong
And I'll be your friend
I'll help you carry on
For it won't be long till 'm gonna need
Somebody to lean on

Just call on me brother when you need a hand
We all need somebody to lean on
I just might have a problem that you'd understand
We all need somebody to lean on

If there is a load you have to bear
That you can't carry
I'm right up the road, I'll share your load
if you just call me

Just call me when you need a friend
Just call me when you need a friend...
--Bill Withers 1972

Thanks, Cheri for sharing this with me an the rest of the gang. It really hit me close. Nine years ago we lost a granddaughter to SIDs. My hubby and myself didn't shut the door on God, but our daughter did. Everyday prayers were said for her by many Christians. It took a few years for her to come back into God's arm, but she did.

Again, thank you.

Darlene

Lightbulb Letting go.................
The Daily Bread message for today is so spot on about "Ending Escalation" that I wanted to share it here as a reminder for all of us who may be in a position where someone else has hurt or angered us

Quote:
To return good for good is natural; to return good for evil is supernatural.
Here is the link to today's devotional
http://www.rbc.org/odb/odb-02-10-08.shtml


and the scripture reference
Matthew 5:38-48

today's Daily Bread really did get me thinking on motives and priorities.... and also a lot of meditation on the Fruits of the Spirit..............

here's the link to the message
http://www.rbc.org/devotionals/our-d.../devotion.aspx

and the scripture in a choice of many translations
Galations 5:16-26

ps a really great book on Spiritual Fruit that we did in our women's fellowship
is "A Woman's Walk with God: Growing in the Fruit of the Spirit" by Elizabeth George.

blessings

Cheri
