When I say.."I am a Christian" Mood
Tuesday, November 3, 2009 | An Inspiring story

When I say..."I am a Christian"
I'm not shouting "I'm clean livin"
I'm whispering "I was lost.
Now I'm found and forgiven."

When I say..."I am a Christian"
I don't speak pf this with pride
I'm confessing that I stumble
And I need Christ to be my guide.

When I say..."I am a Christian"
I'm not trying to be strong.
I'm professing that I'm weak
And need his strength to carry on.

When I say..."I am a Christian"
I'm not bragging of success.
I'm admitting I have failed
And need God to clean my mess.

When I say..."I am a Christian"
I'm not claiming to be perfect'
My flaws are far too visible,
But God believes I am worth it

.When I say..."I am a Christian"
I still feel the sting of pain.
I have my share of heartaches,
So I call upon His name.

When I say..."I am a Christian"
I'm not Holier than thou.
I'm just a simple sinner
Who received God's good grace, somehow!

    this is beautiful, isn't it wonderful that we can say we are christians, and know that God has forgiven us for our past sins, and will forgive us for future sins, this is good, you might think about publishing some of these poems, lots of love, ruby

How I wish Mood
Friday, October 2, 2009 | A General Update story

I wish I could get out of bed today and not have any pain.

How I

As I sit here at my computer this morning I find myself wishing again.

How wish I could breath a little easier.

How I wish I could stand up and walk without the feeling of walking on shards of glass.

How I wish I wasn't afraid to use my fingers, I fear they will break with any amount of force.

How I wish I could just get up and go and not worry about getting there or back.

How I wish i could play with the babies on the floor.

How I wish my friends and family could understand the magnitude of pain I feel..

How I wish that I will be able to handle my pain in the future as well as I do now.

How I wish people would understand me when I say I have Fibromyalgia.

How I wish My Dr.s would just hear what I have to say.

How I wish my memory would not fail me in the simple thingsI do..

How I wish I could turn back the years

How I wish for solitude .

 How I wish for compassion.

How I wish for God to answer my prayers.

How I wish i had a hajic button.

How I wish I could loose this weight.

How I wish I could just quit smoking.

How I wish I was the old me.

    this is a very hard thing to overcome, so hard that i haven't even tried very often, when i did try my kids would beg me to just go and buy me some cigarettes, i guess i was a little bit crouchy, i just found you and i liked your user name, i am also a country girl, i have 2 horses and a mule, and i love the country, i have 4 kids, only 2 still living with me, no grandchildren, yet, my oldest,lives a gay lifestyle, which i pray everyday will change, and have no idea where it was learned, and the next oldest son, is still living right here with mama, he dates some, but none compare to his mama, so i don't know when he will find the right one, and my 17 year old daughter, is about as tomboy as you can get, she has nothing on her mind, but learning to work on cars, and body work on cars, so i don't know if i have much of a chance there, and my baby is 7, so i guess my change of being a grandma is a long ways off, i think we could become good friends, please consider me, lots of love, ruby

    I have yet to quit. My husband has givin up hope and he knows that I am going to get a ciggarett from somewhere. My younger sister was gay. She passed away about 14 years ago. I would take her and any lifestyle she wanted just to get her back. I do not know how your family accepts your gay child but I advise that you love your child no matter what are who they are. I didn't think my son would ever leave home and marry. He married but he still see's mama. I have copd along with the fibro and I am awaiting a ruling from a judge. I had my court date about a month ago but no ruling yet. I would love to have you for a frind. I believe we have a lot in common. We don't have any yard critters but a cat and dog but I have always wanted a horse. I am barefoot and country to the bone.Haha
