A new friend

Welcome Jeriann
It was a pleasure to share hearts and minds last night on the phone. Those answers to your questions of my journey can be found on the side bar. A Life Restored...There are also some lovely Ladies and Gentlemen on the side bar the links are hot just click on them. Like you and I our hearts have touched each others lives too.

Folks this sweet Lady and I met last night through Craigs List, her generous heart... we will be going in the morning to get a gazebo for the garden a free gift. Life is rich this way...the hearts that we contact. I love what this wonderful soul said to me tonight.

Hearts matter more than things. Oh yes a resounding yes! That gazebo was just Gods way of bringing two folks together to share the beauty of life. I have a new friend! Who has a beautiful soul. We spoke for an hour and a half! Just met too.
It was so much fun to speak of those things holy.

I LOVE YOU.....

By Maya Angelou

'A woman's heart should be so hidden in Christ
That a man should have to seek Him first to find her.'

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not shouting 'I'm clean living,'
I'm whispering 'I was lost, Now I'm found and forgiven.'

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I don't speak of this with pride.
I'm confessing that I stumble and need Christ to be my guide.

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not trying to be strong.
I'm professing that I'm weak and need His strength to carry on.

When I say.. 'I am a Christian' I'm not bragging of success.
I'm admitting I have failed and need God to clean my mess.

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not claiming to be perfect,
My flaws are far too visible, but God believes I am worth it.

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I still feel the sting of pain...
I have my share of heartaches, so I call upon His name.

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not holier than thou,
I'm just a simple sinner Who received God's good grace, somehow!

Words have power. Here are a few of my favorite sayings.

A warm cup of tea is like a cuddle with a friend.
The North American Indians have a more eloquent word for ‘friend’ than we do in English. In their language, the word for friend literally means, “the one who carries my sorrows on his back.”
Return with Honor
The sage anticipates things that are difficult while they are easy, and does things that would become great while they are small. All difficult things in the world are sure to arise from a previous state in which they were easy, and all great things from one in which they were small. Therefore the sage, while he never does what is great, is able on that account to accomplish the greatest things."
"HOME IS WHERE YOUR STORY BEGINS"
“Live so that when your children hear these words they think of you… Fairness Caring Integrity Honesty Love Trust.”
"O Lord help my words to be gracious and tender today, for tomarrow I may have to eat them."
"No man has ever been shot while doing the dishes"
