A wonderful way to describe Death.


A sick man turned to his doctor as he was preparing to leave the examination room and said, "Doctor, I am afraid to die. Tell me what lies on the other side."
Very quietly, the doctor said, "I don't know..."
"You don't know? You're, a Christian man,and don't know what's on the other side?"
The doctor was holding the handle of the door; On the other side came a sound of scratching and whining, and as he opened the door, a dog sprang into the room and leaped on him with an eager show of gladness.
Turning to the patient, the doctor said, "Did you notice my dog? He's never been in this room before. He didn't know what was inside. He knew nothing except that his master was here, and when the door opened, he sprang in without fear.
I know little of what is on the other side of death,
but I do know one thing...
I know my Master is there and that is enough."

This is from an email I received. Good stuff!

Missing the mark.

Quite often I am overcome with the burdens of my past sins. There have been times when I think I've had a negative influence in some people's lives and that deeply bothers me. I have never intentionally set out to harm anyone mentally, physically or spiritually. And yet, I know there are times in my life when I've left people with a less than favorable opinion of me. My consolation is knowing we are all a moral work in progress. God is working on all of us and gently directing us to become the people he created us to be. And God gave his Son Jesus to die for our sins. God is truly great!

Good Friday

Today is Good Friday. When I think of Good Friday it makes me realize what Jesus did for us. Jesus died for us giving His life so we could live eternally in heaven with God our Father. If you don't know Jesus, and you're putting it off because you think you need to clean up your act or you're waiting till you're older, know that he will take you just as you are. No conditions! You don't have to change anything. Come to Him and let Jesus make you the person He wants you to be. John 14:6 "Jesus said I am the way the truth and the life, no man can come to the Father but by me." Confess Jesus is the Son of God and ask him to forgive you all your sins. Make Him Lord of your Life. You will have peace and joy. God has a wonderful plan for your life.


Happy Easter!
