Take time to say "I'm sorry," "please forgive me," "thank you" or "it's okay". And if tomorrow never comes, you'll have no regrets about today

Does God exist?

Very Simple but awesome!

A man went to a barbershop to have his hair cut and his beard trimmed.
As the barber began to work, they began to have a good conversation.
They talked about so many things and various subjects.

When they eventually touched on the subject of God, the barber said: "I
don't believe that God exists." "Why do you say that?" asked the
customer. "Well, you just have to go out in the street to realize that
God doesn't exist. Tell me, if God exists, would there be so many sick
people? Would there be abandoned children? If God existed, there would
be neither suffering nor pain. I can't imagine a loving a God who would
allow all of these things."

The customer thought for a moment, but didn't respond because he didn't
want to start an argument.

The barber finished his job and the customer left the shop. Just after
he left the barbershop, he saw a man in the street with long, stringy,
dirty hair and an untrimmed beard. He looked dirty and unkempt.

The customer turned back and entered the barber shop again and he said
to the barber: "You know! what? Barbers do not exist." "How can you say
that?" asked the surprised barber. "I am here, and I am a barber. And I
just worked on you!" "No!" the customer exclaimed. "Barbers don't exist
because if they did, there would be no people with dirty long hair and
untrimmed beards, like that man outside." "Ah, but barbers DO exist! "
answered the barber. "What happens, is, people do not come to me. "

"Exactly!"- affirmed the customer. "That's the point! God, too, DOES
Exist! What happens, is, people don't go to Him and do not look for Him.
That's why there's so much pain and suffering in the world."

LET IT GO !

There are people who can walk away from you. And hear me when I tell you
this! When people can walk away from you: let them walk.

I don't want you to try to talk another person into staying with you, loving
you, calling you, caring about you, coming to see you, staying attached to
you.

I mean hang up the phone. When people can walk away from you let them walk.
Your destiny is never tied to anybody that left.

The bible said that, they came out from us that it might be made manifest
that they were not for us. For had they been of us, no doubt they would have
continued with us. [1 John 2:19]

People leave you because they are not joined to you.
And if they are not joined to you, you can't make them stay. Let them go.
And it doesn't mean that they are a bad person it just means that their part
in the story is over.

And you've got to know when people's part in your story is over so that you
don't keep trying to raise the dead. You've got to know when it's dead.

You've got to know when it's over. Let me tell you something.
I've got the gift of good-bye. It's the tenth spiritual gift, I believe in
good-bye. It's not that I'm hateful, it's that I'm faithful, and I know
whatever God means for me to have He'll give it to me.

And if it takes too much sweat I don't need it. Stop begging people to stay.
Let them go!! If you are holding on to something that doesn't belong to you
and was never intended for your life, then you need to ..LET IT GO!!!

If you are holding on to past hurts and pains ...LET IT GO!!!
If someone can't treat you right, love you back, and see your worth...LET IT
GO!!!
If someone has angered you ... LET IT GO!!!
If you are holding on to some thoughts of evil and revenge .. LET IT GO!!!
If you are involved in a wrong relationship or addiction ... LET IT GO!!!
If you are holding on to a job that no longer meets your needs or talents
... LET IT GO!!!
If you have a bad attitude...LET IT GO!!!
If you keep judging others to make yourself feel better... LET IT GO!!!
If you're stuck in the past and God is trying to take you to a new level in
Him..LET IT GO!!! If you are struggling with the healing of a broken
relationship....

LET IT GO!
If you keep trying to help someone who won't even try to help
themselves...LET IT GO!!!
If you're feeling depressed and stressed .... LET IT GO!!!
If there is a particular situation that you are so used to handling yourself
and God is saying "take your hands off of it," then you need to... LET IT
GO!!!

Let the past be the past. Forget the former things.

GOD is doing a new thing for 2007!!!
LET IT GO!!!
Get Right or Get Left .. think about it, and then LET IT GO!!!
"The Battle is the Lord's!"

During the next 60 seconds, Stop whatever you are doing, and take this
opportunity. Literally it is only One minute!) All you have to do is the
following:

You simply say "The Lords Prayer" for the person that sent you this message:

The Lords Prayer

Our Father, who are in Heaven, Hallowed be Thy Name,
Thy Kingdom Come, Thy Will be done, on Earth as it is
in Heaven. Give us this day, our daily bread and
forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who
trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation
but deliver us from evil. For Thine is the Kingdom,
and the Power, and the Glory, forever. Amen.

Next, send this message to everyone you know. In a while, more people will
have prayed for you and you would have obtained a lot of people praying! for
others.

Next, stop and think and appreciate God's power in your life, for doing what
you know is pleasing to Him.

If you are not ashamed to do this, follow the instructions! Jesus said, "If
you are ashamed of me, I will be ashamed of you before My Father"

If you are not ashamed, send this message...only if you believe.

"Yes, I love my God. He is my fountain of Life and My Savior. He Keeps me
going day and night. Without Him, I am no one. But with Him, I can do
everything,

5 Reasons Why God Uses Problems

The problems you face will either defeat you or develop you - depending
on how you respond to them. Unfortunately, most people fail to see how
God wants to use problems for good in their lives. They react foolishly
and resent their problems rather than pausing to consider what benefit
they might bring.
Here are five ways God wants to use the problems in your life:

1. God uses problems to DIRECT you.

Sometimes God must light a fire under you to get you moving. Problems
often point us in a new direction and motivate us to change. Is God
trying to get your attention?
"Sometimes it takes a painful situation to make us change our ways."

2. God uses problems to INSPECT you.

People are like tea bags...if you want to know what's inside them, just
drop them into hot ever water! Has God tested your faith with a problem
What do problems reveal about you? "When you have many kinds of
troubles, you should be full of joy, because you know that these
troubles test your faith, and this will give you patience."

3. God uses problems to CORRECT you.

Some lessons we learn only through pain and failure. It's likely that
as
a child your parents told you not to touch a hot stove. But you
probably
learned by being burned.
Sometimes we only learn the value of something... health, money, a
relationship. .. by losing it. "It was the best thing that could have
happened to me, for it taught me to pay attention to your laws."

4. God uses problems to PROTECT you.

A problem can be a blessing in disguise if it prevents you from being
harmed by something more serious. Last year a friend was fired for
refusing to do something unethical that his boss had asked him to do.
His unemployment was a problem - but it saved him from being convicted
and sent to prison a year later when management's actions were
eventually discovered.
"You intended to harm me, but God intended it for good...

5. God uses problems to PERFECT you.

Problems, when responded to correctly, are character builders.
God is far more interested in your character than your comfort.
Your relationship to God and your character are the only two things
you're going to take with you into eternity. "We can rejoice when we
run
into problems...
they help us learn to be patient. And patience develops strength of
character in us and helps us trust God more each time we use it until
finally our hope and faith are strong and steady."


Here's the point:
God is at work in your life - even when you do not recognize it or
understand it.
But it's much easier and profitable when you cooperate with Him.
"Success can be measured not only in achievements, but in lessons
learned, lives touched and moments shared along the way"


Touch a heart, leave a hope, stroke a faith and lend a hand.
Live simply, expect little, give much. Fill your life with love.
Scatter sunshine. Forget self, think of others..........
Pray for Peace, Love and Joy .Pray that these words be received into
the
hearts of every eye that sees it.

You can stand tall without standing on someone.
You can be a victor without having victims.
