THIS IS THE DAY....

Here's a quick quiz:
1. Name the five wealthiest people in the world.
2. Name the last five Heisman trophy winners.
3. Name the last five winners of the Miss America contest.
4. Name ten people who have won the Nobel or Pulitzer prize.
5. Name the last six Academy Award winners for Best Actor & Actress.
6. Name the last decade's worth of World Series Winners.
How did you do?
The point is, none of us remembers the headliners of yesterday.These are not second-rate achievers.They're the best in their fields. But the applause dies. Awards tarnish. Achievements are forgotten. Accolades and certificates are buried with their owners.
Now here's another quiz.See how you do on this one:
1. List a few teachers who aided your journey through school.
2. Name three friends who have helped you through a difficult time.
3. Name five people who have taught you something worthwhile.
4. Think of a few people who have made you feel appreciated and special.
5. Think of five people you enjoy spending time with.
6. Name a half dozen heroes whose stories have inspired you.
Easier, isn't it? So what's the lesson?
The people who make a difference in your life aren't the ones with the most credentials, the most money, or the most awards. They're the ones who care. When you have a chance, pass this on to people who've made a difference in your life. I just did!

PRAYING FOR THE WILLIAMS FAMILY.. "GOD BLESS AND COMFORT PLEASE"
When I was a little child,I heard the preacher say,"Take time to listen for the Lord,when you kneel to pray, Be very still and quiet,for sometime you may hear,The voice of Jesus whisper,a message in your ear. If you do the talking,He never will get through,To let you know what it is, He would have you do." I did not heed the lesson,the preacher gave that day,I hurried through my prayers,and wandered, on my merry way. As years went by, I realized,the many times I'd missed, A perfect opportunity,to fill my Lord's request. If I could retrace my steps,so many things I'd do,To be the kind of person,that my Lord can use. Now that I am older,my hearing almost gone, In the silence I can hear,a different kind of song. In a gentle whisper,from the throne above, I'm joyfully reminded of my Savior’s love. I've finally got the message the preacher gave that day,I take the time to listen now when I kneel down to pray.
