Funny how simple it is for people
to trash God
and then wonder why the
world's going to hell.

Funny how we believe
what the newpapers say,
but question what the Bible says.

Funny how everyone wants to
go to heaven provided
they do not have to believe,think,say,
of do anything the Bible says.

Or is it scary?

Funny how someone can say
"I believe in God"
but still fallow Satan
(who, by the way, also "believes" in God).

Funny how you can send a thousand
'jokes' through e-mail and they
spread like wildfire, but when you start
sending messages regarding the Lord,
people think twice about sharing.

Funny how the lewd, crude, vulgar
and obscene pass freely through cyberspace,
but the public discussion of
Jesus is suppressed in the school and
workplace.

FUNNY ISN"T IT?

Funny how someone can be so
fired up for Christ on
Sunday, but be an invisible
Christian the rest of the week.

Are you laughing?

Funny how when you go
to forward this message,
you will not send it to many on
your address list because
you're not sure what they believe,
or what they will
think of you for sending it to them.

Funny how I can be more worried
about what other
people think of me than
what God thinks of me.

Are you laughing?


Yeah, I'm moving up,
I'm already grown.
Soon I'll be graduating,
And out on my own.
I talked to some of my friends,
We were all having fun.
Said some things I shouldn't have said,
Did some stuff I shouldn't have done.
I knew I was different.
I felt God touch my heart,
Knew I should set a standard,
But then I'de be set apart.
Walking to the bus,
I was not looking for strength.
I heard the tires screeching,
But now it's too late.
I'm standing in this room,
And I see the heavenly gate.
Oh no! I never prayed.
I thought I had time to get it straight.
An angel walked to me,
He had a book in his hand.
I knew this was the Book of Life,
When would this dream end?
I told him my name,
And he began to look.
Then he looked at me sadly and said,
Your name is not in this book.
Angel, this is a dream,
No, I can't be dead!
He closed the book and turned away,
He wistpered - You cannot porceed ahead.
No..no this can't be real,
Angel, you can't turn me away.
Let me talk to God,
Maybe he'll let me stay.
He led me to the gate,
Jesus came to me.
He did not let me in but said,
Beloved what is your need?
Jesus, I cried, please,
Don't cast me away from you.
Tears ran down his face as he said,
You knew what you needed to do.
Lord, please, I'm young,
I never thought I would die.
I thought I'd have plenty of time,
Death caught me by surprise.
Lord, I went to church,
Please Jesus, I believe.
He said you would not accept me,
My love you would not recieve.
Lord, there were too many hypocrites,
They weren't being true.
He took a step back and asked,
What does that have to do with you?
Lord, my family claimed to be saved.
They weren't real. You know.
He said, I died for you,
Now i have to go.
I fell to my knees crying to him,
Lord, I planned to be real tomorrow.
I couldn't make him understand.
I had never felt such sorrow.
Then it hit me hard, I said,
Lord, where will I go?
He looked into my eyes and said,
My child you already know.
Please Jesus, I begged,
The place is so hot.
It seemed to trouble and grieve him,
He wispered, DEPART FROM ME,
I KNOW YOU NOT.
Lord, you're supposed to be love
How can you send me to damnation?
He replied, With your mouth you said you loved me,
But each day you rejected my salvation.
With that in an instant,
Day turned to night.
I never knew such torture could be,
Now too late, I know the Bible is right.
If I can tell you anything,
Hell has no age.
It is a place of torture,
Seperated from God and full of rage.
You know, I thought it was funny - a joke,
But one thing is true.
If you never accept Jesus Christ,
HELL IS WAITING FOR YOU!
So please, ask Him into your heart.
IF SOMEONE HELD A GUN INFRONT OF YOUR FACE,
AND ASKED YOU IF YOU BELIEVE IN GOD,
WHAT WOULD YOU DO?
SAY NO AND FEEL ASHAMED FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE?
OR SAY YES, I DO, AND DIE STANDING UP FOR GOD?
IF YOU'D SAY NO, THEN DELETE THIS E-MAIL.
IF YOU WOULD STAND UP FOR JESUS CHRIST,
THEN SEND THIS TO ALL YOUR FRIENDS AND THE
PERSON WHO SENT THIS TO YOU. WHETHER THEY ARE
SAVED...UNSAVED...BELIEVING...AND UNBELIEVING
Never mind the storm. When you're one with God,
There is always a rainbow,
Waiting.



Many people will walk in and out of your life,
But only true friends will leave footprints in your heart.
To handle yourself, use your head;
To handle others, use your heart.

Anger is only one letter short of danger.
If someone betrays you once, it is his fault;
If he betrays you twice, it is your fault.
Great minds discuss ideas;
Average minds discuss events;
Small minds discuss people.

He who loses money, loses much;
He who loses a friend, loses much more;
He, who loses faith, loses all.

Beautiful young people are accidents of nature,
But beautiful old people are works of art.

Learn from the mistakes of others.
You can't live long enough to make them all yourself.

Friends, you and me....
You brought another friend....
And then there were 3....
We started our group....
Our circle of friends....
And like that circle....
There is no beginning or end....
Yesterday is history.
Tomorrow is mystery.
Today is a gift.
