War in Lebanon hits home.

While I was working somewhere in Southgate. I was introduced by the owner to his family. They were Lebanese. I listened as they told me their concerns about their family and friends still in Lebanon. The mother had tears streaming down her checks. I did what I could to console them but I knew it wouldn't be enough. War leaves plenty of victims not involved in the dispute. Silently, I said a prayer for this family. I thought, could I have done more? Seeing the fright on their faces, a father, mother, son and daughter, still haunts me. These people will not sleep tonight, nor perhaps tomorrow night. Perhaps their tears will put them to sleep. I will continue to pray for them. Join me if God places them on your hearts like He has mine.

Praise God

Today I had an opportunity to share the gospel with an man from Lebanon. He was receptive but still had oppositions. I left it in Gods hands figuring I was just part of His plan.

Enjoy The Coffee

A group of alumni, highly established in their careers, got together to
visit their old university professor. Conversation soon turned into
complaints about stress in work and life. Offering his guests coffee, the
professor went to the kitchen and returned with a large pot of coffee and
an assortment of cups - porcelain, plastic, glass, crystal, some plain
looking, some expensive, some exquisite - telling them to help themselves
to the coffee.

When all the students had a cup of coffee in hand, the professor said:
"If you noticed, all the nice looking expensive cups were taken up,
leaving behind the plain and cheap ones. While it is but normal for you
to want only the best for yourselves, that is the source of your problems
and stress. Be assured that the cup itself, adds no quality to the coffee
in most cases, just more expensive and in some cases even hides what we
drink. What all of you really wanted was coffee, not the cup, but you
consciously went for the best cups... and then began eyeing each other's
cups.

Now consider this: Life is the coffee, and the jobs, money and position
in society are the cups They are just tools to hold and contain Life, and
the type of cup we have does not define, nor change the quality of Life
we live. Sometimes, by concentrating only on the cup, we fail to enjoy
the coffee God has provided us."

God brews the coffee, not the cups..........enjoy your coffee...........
