satisfied.. i am

...i don't need to always go out to have fun and be happy...i am satisfied
...i don't need to be affirmed all the time that I am pretty because I know who I am in Christ
...i don't need to be surrounded with friends all the time because I have found what makes me happy
...i don't need to fill myself with all types of activities to feel fulfilled, because I am accepted and I know my purpose
...i only need one thing and one thing alone, that is knowing You my One true love and there is no greater thing


Satisfied Mind
Red Hayes and Jack Rhodes

How many times have you heard someone say,"If I had his money I would do things my way."
How little they know, well, it's so hard to find,One rich man in ten with a satisfied mind.
Oh, once I was waiting for fortune and fame,
Had everything that I needed to get a start in life's game.
Then suddenly it happened, I lost every dime,But I'm richer by far with a satisfied mind.
No money can buy back your youth when you're old,
Or a friend when you're lonely or a love that's grown cold.
And the world's richest person is a pauper at times,Compared to the one with a satisfied mind.
When my life is over and my time has run out,
All my friends and my loved ones I'm gonna leave them no doubt.
But there's one thing for certain, when it comes my time,
I'm gonna leave this old world with a satisfied mind.

Happy Talk

Happy, happy, happy talk...talk about the things you like to do....(South Pacific). We all love to talk but we all need to be careful because we will have to give an account on the day of judgment for every careless word we have spoken(Mt12:36). The tongue is a small part of the body, but it makes great boasts. Consider what a great forest is set on fire by a small spark. (James 3:5) 1 Peter 2 1Therefore, rid yourselves of all malice and all deceit, hypocrisy, envy, and slander of every kind Yeah, even in Christian circles, we need to be careful of this evil-----Slander. I have been entangled by this as an unwilling prey this past week I was perceived by that one person that I am praying for Him (no offense to the brother because we already cleared the issue and have patched up our differences) These items circling around Christian circles specially around single people is not only unpleasant to God but it gives very little room for possible pure friendships because it always threatens

Psalm 23 (For the Work Place)

Psalm 23 (For the Work Place) The Lord is my real boss, and I shall not want.He gives me peace, when chaos is all around me. He gently reminds me to pray and do all things without murmuring andcomplaining. He reminds me that he is my source and not my job. He restores my sanity everyday and guides my decisions that I mighthonor him in all that I do. Even though I face absurd amounts of e-mails, system crashes,unrealistic deadlines, budget cutbacks, gossiping co-workers,discriminating supervisors and an aging body that doesn't cooperateevery morning, I still will not stop--- for He is with me! His presence,His peace, and His power will see me through. He raises me up, even when they fail to promote me. He claims me as His own, even when the company threatens to let me go. His Faithfulness and love is better than any bonus check.His retirement plan beats every 401k there is! When it's all said and done, I'll be working for Him a whole lot longerand for that, I BLESS HIS NAME!

Everything's New

I've been ignoring my blog for a month now because I have more important things to do than bogging. That is dealing with stuff that is pertinent to my spiritual growth and my being complete. I can say now that I am more complete, at least I feel complete. And this is not because I have friends and family who loves me but because I have learned the greatest lesson. My worth is found in him. I know of this fact that my identity, my significance and value lies in God but I was caught up with too many things. Let's just say I am serving the king but I don't know the king or drifting away from the king. I was overwhelmed with the blessings that I delighted in my blessings more than I delighted with the Blessor, at least I recognized it now.I was snatched from my focus that I felt limped when my day is not complete if I didn't do this and that, if I didn't have those stuff, or if I wasn't accepted or received much by this person or that person. It's a foolish thin
