Let Me Count The Ways
Why do I love you
let me count the ways:
Because you’re always there
whenever I need you
showing me you care
with all kindness too
Because you have loved me
with no thought of selfishness
I come first to thee
how my life you bless
Because my children are
like unto your own
which exceeds by far
what I’ve done alone
Because you married me
when for my recovery
no hope did see
you acted so selflessly
Just wanting to tell you
in oh so many ways
all I want to do
is sing your loving praise!
For my husband Mark, my love!!

This Day’s Thought For Thursday

Prayer Requests |
The Bible as a book stands alone. There never was, nor ever will be, another like it. As there is but one sun to enlighten the world naturally, so there is but one Book to enlighten the world spiritually. May that Book become to each of us the man of our counsel, the guide of our journey, the inspiration of our thought, and our support and comfort in life and in death.
Now as they were eating, Jesus took bread, and after blessing it broke it and gave it to the disciples, and said, “Take, eat, this is my body.” And he took a cup, and when he had given thanks he gave it to them, saying, “Drink of it, all of you, for this is my blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins. I tell you I will not drink again of this fruit of the vine until that day when I drink it new with you in my Father’s kingdom.”
Matthew 26:26-29

The Story Behind The Praying Hands A Fake?
Today I received the following comment pertaining to an earlier post that I did where I pasted an e-mail that I received with “the story of The Praying Hands” in it:
Dennis says:
This email is a fake, go to Wikipedia and read the real story, there was no brother involved in any of this, as usual just a BS email for people to believe in the grace of God or something, even when there isn’t any truth to it.
This got my ire up a little bit and here was my response to this individual:
-
Dennis, It’s too bad that you feel that way. If the story is fake, I really don’t care ’cause the picture is inspiration enough to me in itself. As far as the grace of God goes, you picked the wrong person to make that comment to. I personally have experienced the grace of God over and over again in my lifetime. Even to the point of a near-death encounter with the Light!!! So, although I will post your comment, I will not acknowledge any truth to your conclusions. But to each his own, right? Peace, Terri
Needless to say, anyone who has read my blog for more than two seconds knows that this type of comment wouldn’t fly with me! But if it is true that this story is a fake, my regular readers know that I’d be the first one to say that I was wrong. I don’t have the time nor desire to go and research this one. If you would like to explore the veracity of Dennis’s comment, please be my guest. As I said in my reply, I really don’t care. I don’t mean that to sound arrogant or condescending, I just mean that I have more important things to worry about right now than this silliness. It’s obvious that this person is a non-believer. That’s his God-given right. Just as it is my God proven right to believe. The rest you can decide for yourself. My intent is not to offend anyone but just to set the record straight as I always try to do

Peace and blessings, Terri
The Most Important Things
The most important things
to us life brings
Aren’t things at all
which unto us befall
But rather people are
most important by far
For things go away
just about every day
When they don’t last
falling into the past
And people forever will
your life with love fill!

Who Could Stand Against You?
Alone in the dark
make your own spark
And faith to ignite
create your own light
In your darkest days
give the Lord praise
When He’s with you
none stand against you
Alone you’ll never be
when you belong to He!
Teresa Marie 10/13/11
Rejoicing In The Lord
Rejoicing in the Lord
giving to Him praise
that He be adored
all our living days
Stated in the Word
this we should do
a message I’ve heard
try to follow through
It’s easy to forget
in our busy day
if our mind’s set
we’ll find a way
Glory we need give
to His Holy Name
every day we live
and be without blame!
Teresa Marie 10/13/11
Find A Way
Know that I will
always find a way
to make my escape
from you some day
You drag me back
and I will run
’cause you don’t realize
I’m a loaded gun
Everything that you do
or try to say
will come back around
on to you anyway
You will shoot yourself
in the foot alone
there is nothing in
you that I condone
‘Cause you have abused
my mother and me
don’t believe your lies
I have eyes to see!
