IT'S JUST WHAT YOU MAKE OF IT!...

A Pumpkin's Wish

I am a big orange pumpkin

I've been growing for awhile

but oh to be a jack-o-lantern

and make the children smile

 I know I'd look so perfect

glowing gold and bright

My grin would be from ear to ear

To light the path that night

 

 Won't you come and get me

and take me home with you

Halloweens a special time

For pumkins like me too.

DEAR GOD, SEND YOUR LIGHT SO

THE SHADOW I CAST GIVES SHAPE

TO YOUR LOVE.  SABRA CIANCANELLI

CHRISTIANS ARE LIKE PUMPKINS

God picks you from the patch, brings you in, and

washes all of the dirt off which you may have gotten

from other pumpkins.

Then, He cuts the top off and

scoops out all of the yucky stuff. He removes seeds

of doubt, hate, greed, unforgiveness, etc.

Then, He

carves a new smiling face and puts His light inside of you

to shine for all the world to see. Are you letting your

light shine? Be a jack-o-lantern for Jesus!

                     ===================================================

We are grateful that the storm left us all safe (family and all) ! Left all of our animals safe. And our belongings pretty much in place in pretty good condition, and our power still on!.. PRAYING THAT EACH OF YOU CAN SAY THE SAME!... They just said on the news that for us at least.. the worst is over! THANK YOU GOD.. PLEASE BE WITH THOSE THAT HAVE LOST LOVED ONES AND THOSE THAT HAVE LOST THEIR HOMES AND ALL.. AND FOR ALL THAT ARE WITHOUT POWER (heat, water and such)WE GIVE YOU OUR LOVE, THANKS, HONOR, PRAISE AND GLORY IN JESUS NAME, AMEN!

                    =================================================

 YES, EVEN HALLOWEEN DON'T HAVE TO MEAN ANYTHING BAD OR UPSETTING, OR UNSAFE! IT'S JUST HOW YOU LOOK AT ALL OF IT AND YOUR RESPONSES! DON'T YOU AGREE?

 =========================================
PRAYING FOR YOU AND YOURS THAT GOD WILL BLESS EACH, SPIRITUALLY, PHYSICALLY, EMOTIONALLY, FINANCIALLY, AND WITH HIS LOVE, GRACE, HIS GUIDANCE, SAFETY, COMFORT, AND SWEET INNER PEACE!
AND WE PRAY THAT YOUR UNSPOKEN REQUEST WILL BE ANSWERED!
