Whirlwind
==========

.
 
I have no idea why I am sitting here about to tell the world
about my situation, but maybe it will help someone.

.
 
A little over a year ago I found myself back home, working two
jobs, single, feeling alone and pregnant.

.
 
Now the reason for me being back home was so that I could save
some money so that I might be able to buy my first home. I was
working two jobs so that I could pay my current bills off.

.
 
I also wanted to start a new career. I was a nail tech and an
intake person. I was 28 years old, a single woman longing to be
married but finding myself alone and pregnant which I thought
would never happen.

.
 
My mother and step-father gave me the option to move in for one
year so that I could save a little faster. Well my year had
come to a close and it was time to go, if you know what I mean.

.
 
One day I felt like I was sitting in a chair in the middle of
the room and looking above only to see the whirlwind of my
problems going around me. I was like “wow if I get pulled up
into this mess I’d just keel over.” Well you know what happened
next. Our words do have power because all of a sudden it seems
as though I became trapped in this whirlwind.

.
 
I then began to give up until I remembered that God said that we
should cast all of our worries unto Him, so I began to pray a
prayer with all my heart. With faith I believed that He would
fix all of this, but I didn’t quite know how.

.
 
The next day while working at the nail shop around 5 p.m.,
I began to tell a client of mine about my situation. After
crying all over myself at the end of her appointment, she gave
me a big hug and said that I was strong and everything would
work itself out. Now that was the last thing that I wanted to
hear. I was in trouble and needed major help.

.
 
So by the end of my shift around 10 p.m. that client of mine who

  GOOD SAMARITAN..

  A Sunday school teacher was telling her class the story of the

  Good Samaritan.

  She asked the class, “If you saw a person lying on the roadside, all

  wounded and

  bleeding, what would you do?”

  A thoughtful little girl broke the hushed silence, “I think I’d throw

  up.”

..

  DID NOAH FISH?

..

  A Sunday school teacher asked, “Johnny, do you think Noah did a

  lot of fishing when

  he was on the Ark ?” “No,” replied Johnny.

  “How could he, with just two worms.”

..

  THE LORD IS MY SHEPHERD

..

  A Sunday School teacher decided to have her young class memorize one of the most

  quoted passages in the Bible - Psalm 23 .

  She gave the youngsters a month to learn the chapter.

  Little Rick was excited about the task - but he just couldn’t remember the Psalm.

  After much practice, he could barely get past the first line.

  On the day that the kids were scheduled to recite Psalm 23 in front of the congregation,

  Ricky was so nervous.

  When it was his turn, he stepped up to the microphone and said proudly,

  “The Lord is my Shepherd, and that’s all I need to know.”

..

  UNANSWERED PRAYER

..

  The preacher’s 5 year-old daughter noticed that her father always

  paused and bowed his head for a moment before starting his sermon.

  One day, she asked him why. “Well, Honey,” he began, proud that his daughter was so observant of his messages. “I’m asking the Lord to help me preach a

  good sermon.”

  “How come He doesn’t answer it?” she asked.

..

  BEING THANKFUL

..

  A Rabbi said to a precocious six-year-old boy, “So your mother

  says your prayers for you each night?

  That’s very commendable.

  What does she say?”

  The little boy replied, “Thank God he’s in bed!”

..

  ALL MEN / ALL GIRLS

..

  When my daughter, Kelli, said her bedtime prayers, she would bless every family member, every friend, and every animal (current and past).

  For several weeks, after we had finished the nightly prayer, Kelli

  would say, “and all girls.”

  This soon became part of her nightly routine, to include this closing.

  My curiosity got the best of me and I asked her, “Kelli, why do you always add the part about all girls?”

  Her response, “Because everybody always finish their prayers by saying ‘All Men’!”

..

  SAY A PRAYER

..

  Little Johnny and his family were having Sunday dinner at his

  Grandmother’s house.

  Everyone was seated around the table as the food was being served.

  When Little Johnny received his plate, he started eating right away.

  “Johnny!

Yankee Doodle/Patriotic Poetry
I Am The Flag
.

Image

.

I am the flag of the United States of America.
.
I was born on June 14, 1777, in Philadelphia.
.
There the Continental Congress adopted my stars and stripes as the
national flag.
.
My thirteen stripes alternating red and white, with a union of
thirteen white stars in a field of blue, represented a new
constellation, a new nation dedicated to the personal and religious
liberty of mankind.
.
Today fifty stars signal from my union, one for each of the fifty
sovereign states in the greatest constitutional republic the world has
ever known.
.
My colors symbolize the patriotic ideals and spiritual qualities of
the citizens of my country.
.
My red stripes proclaim the fearless courage and integrity of American
men and boys and the self-sacrifice and devotion of American mothers
and daughters.
.
My white stripes stand for liberty and equality for all.
.
My blue is the blue of heaven, loyalty, and faith.
.
I represent these eternal principles: liberty, justice, and humanity.
.
I embody American freedom: freedom of speech, religion, assembly, the
