Drift Away to a Tropical
Island. Sometimes, it's just nice to close your eyes and imagine
yourself on a tropical island somewhere. Take a few minutes out and de-stress.
Enjoy...
Make your own relaxation
music... Babbling brook, birds, crackling fire. You
choose...
Everything I need to know about life, I
learned from Noah's Ark
One: Don't miss the boat.
Two:
Remember that we are all in the same boat.
Three: Plan
ahead. It wasn't raining when Noah built the Ark.
Four: Stay
fit When you're 600 years old, someone may ask you to do something really
big.
Five: Don't listen to critics; just get on with the job
that needs to be done.
Six: Build your future on high
ground.
Seven: For safety's sake, travel in
pairs.
Eight: Speed isn't always an advantage. The snails
were on board with the cheetahs.
Nine: When you're stressed,
float a while.
Ten: Remember, the Ark was built by amateurs;
the Titanic by professionals.
Eleven: No matter the storm,
when you are with God, there's always a rainbow waiting.
Has Noah's Ark
been found?

WHAT HAPPENS IN
HEAVEN?
I dreamt that I went to Heaven and an angel was showing me around.
We walked side-by-side inside a large workroom filled with angels. My angel
guide stopped in front of the first section and said, "This is the Receiving Section. Here, all
petitions to God said in prayer are received."
I
looked around in this area, and it was terribly busy with so many angels sorting
out petitions written on voluminous paper sheets and scraps from people all over
the world.
Then we moved on down a long corridor until we reached the
second section. The angel then said to me, "This is the
Packaging and Delivery Section. Here, the graces and blessings
the people asked for are processed and delivered to the living persons who asked
for them." I noticed again how busy it was there. There
were many angels working hard at that station, since so many blessings had been
requested and were being packaged for delivery to Earth.
Finally at the
farthest end of the long corridor we stopped at the door of a very small
station. To my great surprise, only one angel was seated there, idly doing
nothing. "This is the Acknowledgment
Section", my angel friend quietly admitted to
me. He seemed embarrassed. "How is it that there is no
work going on here?" I asked.
"So sad," the angel sighed.
"After people receive the blessings that they asked for,
very few send back acknowledgments."
"How does one acknowledge God's
blessings?" I asked.
"Simple," the angel answered. "Just say, 'Thank you, Lord.'"
"What blessings should
they acknowledge?" I asked.
"If you have food in the refrigerator, clothes on your back, a
roof overhead and a place to sleep you are richer than 75% of this world. If you
have money in the bank, in your wallet, and spare change in a dish, you are
among the top 8% of the world's wealthy."
"And if you get this on your own computer,
you are part of the 1% in the world who has that opportunity."
"If you
woke up this morning with more health than illness... You are more blessed than
the many who will not even survive this day."
"If you have never
experienced the fear in battle, the loneliness of imprisonment, the agony of
torture, or the pangs of starvation... you are ahead of 700 million people in
the world."
"If you can attend a church without the fear of harassment,
arrest, torture or death you are envied by, and more blessed than, three billion
people in the world."
"If your parents are still alive and still married
..you are very rare."
"If you can hold your head up and smile, you are
not the norm, you're unique to all those in doubt and
despair..."
Have a good day, count your blessings, and if you
care to, share this message, to remind everyone else how blessed we all
are.
ATTN: Acknowledge Dept. "Thank
you Lord, for giving me the ability to share this message and for giving me so
many wonderful people with whom to share it. I thank God for everything,
especially all my family and friends!!"
