Psalm 23 - - EXPLAINED 

This is an eye opener... 

Some probably never thought nor looked 

at this Psalm in this way... 

even though they say it over and over again.

The Lord is my Shepherd

That's a Relationship!

I shall not want

That's Supply!

He maketh me to lie down in green pastures.

That's Rest!

He leadeth me beside the still waters.

That's Refreshment!

He restoreth my soul

That's Healing!

He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness.

That's Guidance!

For His name sake

That's Purpose!

Yea, though I walk through the 

valley of the shadow of death.

That's Testing!

I will fear no evil.

That's Protection!

For Thou art with me

That's Faithfulness!

Thy rod and Thy staff they comfort me,

That's Discipline!

Thou preparest a table before me 

in the presence of my enemies.

That's Hope!

Thou anointest my head with oil,

That's Consecration!

My cup runneth over.

That's Abundance!

Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me 

all the days of my life.

That's Blessing!

And I will dwell in the house of the Lord.

That's Security! 

Forever

That's Eternity

Amazing Friends

"ATTITUDE" by: Charles Swindoll 

I would never trade my amazing friends, my wonderful life, my loving family for less gray hair or a flatter belly.  As I've aged, I've become kinder to myself, and less critical of myself. I've become my own friend. I don't chide myself for eating that extra cookie, or for not making my bed, or for buying that silly cement gecko that I didn't need, but looks so avante garde on my patio. I am entitled to a treat, to be messy, to be extravagant.  

I  have seen too many dear friends leave this world too soon; before they understood the great freedom that comes with aging.   

  

Whose business is it if I choose to read or play on the computer until 4 AM and sleep until noon?  I will dance with myself to those wonderful tunes of the 60 & 70's, and if I, at the same time, wish to weep over a lost love ..... I will. 

I  will walk the beach in a swim suit that is stretched over a bulging body, and will dive into the waves with abandon if I choose to, despite the pitying glances from the jet set. They, too, will get old.   

I know I am sometimes forgetful. But there again, some of life is just as well forgotten. And I eventually remember the important things.   

Sure, over the years my heart has been broken. How can your heart not break when you lose a loved one, or when a child suffers, or even when somebody's beloved pet gets hit by a car?  But broken hearts are what give us strength and understanding and compassion. A heart never broken is pristine and sterile and will never know the joy of being imperfect.  

I am so blessed to have lived long enough to have my hair turning gray, and to have my youthful laughs be forever etched into deep grooves on my face.  

So many have never laughed, and so many have died before their hair could turn silver. 

As you get older, it is easier to be positive.  You care less about what other people think. I  don't question myself anymore. I've even earned the right to be wrong.   

So, to answer your question, I like being old.  It has set me free. I  like the person I have become.  I am not going to live forever, but while I am still here, I will not waste time lamenting what could have been, or worrying about what will be.  And I shall eat dessert every single day (if I feel like it).  

  

MAY OUR FRIENDSHIP NEVER COME APART,  ESPECIALLY WHEN IT'S STRAIGHT FROM THE HEART!  

 ... I am convinced that life is 10% what happens to me and 90% how I react to it.
