    The Best Things In Life Are Free

    1. Receiving flowers from an anonymous admirer.

    2. Standing in the right spot just in time to see a dazzling sunset.

    3. Realizing you lost weight▬without trying!▬after putting on an old pair of jeans.

    4. Listening to a friend crack a joke, then laughing out loud to the point of tears.

    5. Taking a group picture by yourselves, and realizing you all fit perfectly in the frame.

    6. Running into your crush when you look and feel 100% gorgeous.

    7. Hearing your favorite song on the radio▬and the DJ saying it’s especially for you.

    8. Getting a free massage (courtesy of your sis) after three hours of intense volleyball training.

    9. Opening mom’s closet and finding a vintage piece that’s so you.

    10. Unwrapping a present, no matter how big or small. It’s the thought that counts!

    11. Placing a dash of free cinnamon or vanilla powder in your cup of hot chocolate. It gives your drink the extra kick it needs.

    12. Discovering a new band and instantly liking all their songs.

    13. Meeting your idol or someone you look up to and finding out he/she is genuinely nice.

    14. Understanding a tough math equation or a complex chemistry formula before all your classmates do.

    15. Exchanging big bear hugs with someone you love at the end of a tiring day.

    Very Special

    >> Got this beautiful story from an e-mail forward..

     

    Keep reading to the bottom of the page -- don't stop at the feet (You'll see).

    Two traveling angels stopped to spend the night in the home of a wealthy family.

    The family was rude and refused to let the angels stay in the mansion's guest room..

    Instead the angels were given a small space in the cold basement.

    As they made their bed on the hard floor, the older angel saw a hole in the wall and repaired it. 

    When the younger angel asked why, the older angel replied, 

    'Things aren't always what they seem.' 

    The next night the pair came to rest at the house of a very poor, but very hospitable farmer and his wife.. 

    After sharing what little food they had the couple let the angels sleep in their bed where they could have a good night's rest. 

    When the sun came up the next morning the angels found the farmer and his wife in tears. 

    Their only cow, whose milk had been their sole income, lay dead in the field. 

    The younger angel was infuriated and asked the older angel how could you have let this happen? 

    The first man had everything, yet you helped him, she accused.. 

    The second family had little but was willing to share everything, and you let the cow die. 

    'Things aren't always what they seem,' the older angel replied. 

    'When we stayed in the basement of the mansion, I noticed there was gold stored in that hole in the wall. 

    Since the owner was so obsessed with greed and unwilling to share his good fortune, I sealed the wall so he wouldn't find it.'

    'Then last night as we slept in the farmer’s bed, the angel of death came for his wife. I gave him the cow instead. 

    Things aren't always what they seem.' 

    Sometimes that is exactly what happens when things   don't turn out the way they should. If you have faith, you just need to trust that every outcome is always to your advantage. You just might not know it until sometime later... 
                             Oooo 
    Some people           (    ) 
    come into our lives    )  / 
    and quickly go..      (_ /

                          because we have 
                        made a good 
                           friend!! 


    Yesterday is history. 
    Tomorrow a mystery. 
    Today is a gift …… 
    That's why it's called the present! 

    I think this is special...live and savor every moment... This is not a dress rehearsal!

    Give Me Your Eyes

    Give Me Your Eyes by Brandon Heath

    Looked down from a broken sky
    Traced out by the city lights
    My world from a mile high
    Best seat in the house tonight
    Touched down on the cold black top
    Hold on for the sudden stop
    Breath in the familiar shock
    Of confusion and chaos
    All those people going somewhere,
    Why have I never cared?

    Chorus:
    Give me Your eyes for just one second
    Give me Your eyes so I can see
    Everything that I keep missing
    Give me Your love for humanity
    Give me Your arms for the broken hearted
    The ones that are far beyond my reach
    Give me your heart for the ones forgotten
    Give me your eyes so I can see
    Yeah
    Yeah
    yeah
    yeah

    Step out on a busy street
    See a girl and our eyes meet
    Does her best to smile at me
    To hide what’s underneath
    There’s a man just to her right
    Black suit and a bright red tie
    Too ashamed to tell his wife
    He’s out of work
    He’s buying time
    All those people going somewhere
    Why have I never cared?

    Chorus:
    Give me Your eyes for just one second
    Give me Your eyes so I can see
    Everything that I keep missing
    Give me Your love for humanity
    Give me Your arms for the broken hearted
    The ones that are far beyond my reach
    Give me Your heart for the ones forgotten
    Give me Your eyes so I can see
    Yeah
    Yeah
    yeah
    yeah

    I’ve been there a million times
    A couple of million eyes
    Just moving past me by
    I swear I never thought that I was wrong
    Well I want a second glance
    So give me a second chance
    To see the way You see the people all along

    Chorus (x2)
    Give me Your eyes for just one second
    Give me Your eyes so I can see
    Everything that I keep missing
    Give me Your love for humanity
    Give me Your arms for the broken hearted
    The ones that are far beyond my reach.
    Give me Your heart for the ones forgotten
    Give me Your eyes so I can see

    Give me Your eyes
    Lord, give me Your eyes
    Everything
    Give me Your heart for the broken hearted
    Give me Your eyes
    Lord, give me Your eyes

    Yeah
    Yeah
    yeah
    yeah

  • Hilsong United | Take It All

    The Lord is like a strong tower, where the righteous can go and be safe. - Proverbs 18:10

     
    Searching the world
    The lost will be found
    In freedom we live
    As one we cry out
    You carried the cross
    You died and rose again
    My God
    I'll only ever give my all

    You sent Your Son
    From heaven to earth
    You delivered us all
    It's eternally heard
    I searched for truth
    And all I found was You
    My God
    I'll only ever give my all

    Jesus we're living for Your Name
    We'll never be ashamed of You
    Our praise and all we are today
    Take, take, take it all
    Take, take, take it all... (repeat)

    You sent Your Son
    From heaven to earth
    You delivered us all
    It's eternally heard
    I searched for truth
    And all I found was You
    My God
    I'll only ever give my all

    Running to the One
    Who heals the blind
    Following the shining light
    In Your hands
    The power to save the world
    My life (2x)

    Take, take, take it all
    Take, take, take it all
    Take, take, take it all...
