You are in your car driving home. Thoughts wander to the game you want to see or meal you want to eat, when suddenly a sound unlike any you&#39;ve ever heard fills the air. The sound is high above you. A trumpet? A choir? A choir of trumpets? You don&#39;t know, but you want to know.. So you pull over, get out of your car, and look up. As you do, you see you aren&#39;t the only curious one. The roadside has become a parking lot. Car doors are open, and people are &amp;nbsp; staring at the sky. Shoppers are racing out of the grocery store. The Little League baseball game across the street has come to a halt. Players and parents are searching the clouds and what they see, and what you see, has never before been seen.&lt;br /&gt;
As if the sky were a curtain, the drapes of the atmosphere part. A brilliant light spills onto the earth. There are no shadows. None.&lt;br /&gt;
From every hue ever seen and a million more never seen. Riding on the flow is an endless fleet of angels. They pass through the curtains one myriad at a time, until they occupy every square inch of the sky.&lt;br /&gt;
North. South. East. West.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Thousands of silvery wings rise and fall in unison, and over the sound of the trumpets, you can hear the cherubim and seraphim chanting, Holy, holy, holy.. The final flank of angels is followed by twenty-four silver-bearded elders and a multitude of souls who join the angels in worship..&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Suddenly, the heavens are quiet. All is quiet. The angels&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
turn, you turn, the entire world turns and there He is..... Jesus.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Through waves of light you see the silhouetted figure of Christ the King. He is atop a great stallion, and the stallion is atop a billowing cloud. He opens his mouth, and you are surrounded by his declaration:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I am the Alpha and the Omega.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The angels bow their heads... The elders remove their crowns... And before you is a Figure so consuming that you know, instantly you know: Nothing else matters.. forget stock markets and school reports.... sales meetings and football games. Nothing is newsworthy.. . All that mattered, matters no more... For Christ has come.</description><link>http://oneworld-onevoice.blogspot.com/2012/12/return-of-king.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Holiday Spirit)</author></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6368410852184443172.post-3390975290089587674</guid><pubDate>Tue, 27 Nov 2012 16:12:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2012-11-27T08:12:58.813-08:00</atom:updated><title>The Sacrifice of Love</title><description>&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
In a school, there was a chaos every where, and the students
didn&#39;t obey school rules and regulations. Then one day, a new&amp;nbsp;teacher&amp;nbsp;entered
the school, he was baffled at the state of lawlessness in the school,&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
so, he decided on a plan and called all the students
together.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
&quot;Now&quot; the teacher began, &quot;I want you all to
set rules and the punishment anyone who breaks the rules will receive.&quot;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
The students were happy, they set the rules and punishment
for breaking it.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
Surprisingly, all the students obeyed the rules until one
day when a boy&#39;s lunch disappeared.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
Investigations were carried out and they found out that it was
one skinny boy called David in the class that ate the food,&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
As set by the&amp;nbsp;students, the punishment the theft was twelve
strokes of the cane,&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
ON THE BARE BACK!!!&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
The&amp;nbsp;teacher&amp;nbsp;ordered the boy to remove his jacket, when he
did, everyone saw how skinny he was, the boy broke down in tears and cried,
&quot;please, forgive me, i&#39;m from a poor home, i haven&#39;t eaten for three day
now, i don&#39;t have parent, my guardian are poor!&amp;nbsp;I&#39;m&amp;nbsp;sorry, i&#39;m sorry please
forgive me&quot;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
Everyone was sympathetic, but the rule had been broken, so
the punishment needed to be meted out, so the&amp;nbsp;teacher&amp;nbsp;asked, &quot;who will act
as a substitute for him or should i go ahead and flog him.,&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
suddenly the boy whose food was eaten came and said he would
act as a substitute and he was flogged..&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEix2-qb6HgV4SKNxj2D0Y5-QdVvTZVVcSDfcyvXcdanNJBzPirT-dk2bM9yGBO-QG8lG6ftifpH6XDdKggP4cbqXMY2TThGReBmW8k7KY9-GXOajoX4V6NDljTk0E4JLdPCe0EgShBZ/s1600/jesus-christ-0206.jpg&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; height=&quot;240&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEix2-qb6HgV4SKNxj2D0Y5-QdVvTZVVcSDfcyvXcdanNJBzPirT-dk2bM9yGBO-QG8lG6ftifpH6XDdKggP4cbqXMY2TThGReBmW8k7KY9-GXOajoX4V6NDljTk0E4JLdPCe0EgShBZ/s320/jesus-christ-0206.jpg&quot; width=&quot;320&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Everyone was in tears, and the skinny boy came and thanked
the big boy, &quot;you helped me even though I stole from you, thanks&quot;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
MORAL LESSON:&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
Do you know that Jesus Christ is our substitute&amp;nbsp;every&amp;nbsp;time we sin?&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
He came and took all our punishment, Bible said that the
chastisement of our peace was upon Him.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
Have you thanked Him,&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
Just as the skinny boy thanked the big boy?&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
If not then what are you waiting for?&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
Thank you Lord!!!&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
Take my Son.....&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
A wealthy man and his son loved to collect rare works of
art. They had everything in their collection, from Picasso to Raphael. They
would often sit together and admire the great works of art.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
When the Vietnam conflict broke out, the son went to war. He
was very courageous and died in battle while rescuing another soldier. The
father was notified and grieved deeply for his only &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
son.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
About a month later, just before Christmas,&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
There was a knock at the door. A young man stood at the door
with a large package in his hands..&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;
&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgakoQzKWdq2SUvTl2RRhTaS4Mb0_5K5P3M61Ohw9FGzCGYCj0TF3NOUA7lK4_5EmOvHnC5BmR-S1vqWB5-VzBqPtif_Ga3LTgu0qRs0rNoziNUU0pme4Typ0EzShXM0Jnk2V2Tppht/s1600/marine-normandy-cemetary-2009.jpg&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; height=&quot;185&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgakoQzKWdq2SUvTl2RRhTaS4Mb0_5K5P3M61Ohw9FGzCGYCj0TF3NOUA7lK4_5EmOvHnC5BmR-S1vqWB5-VzBqPtif_Ga3LTgu0qRs0rNoziNUU0pme4Typ0EzShXM0Jnk2V2Tppht/s320/marine-normandy-cemetary-2009.jpg&quot; width=&quot;320&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
He said, &#39;Sir, you don&#39;t know me, but I am the soldier for
whom your son gave his life. He saved many lives that day, and he was carrying
me to safety when a bullet struck him in the heart and he died instantly... He
often talked about you, and your love for art.&#39; The young man held out this
package. &#39;I know this isn&#39;t much. I&#39;m not really a great artist, but I think
your son would have wanted you to have this.&#39;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
The father&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
Opened the package. It was a portrait of his son, painted by
the young man. He stared in awe at the way the soldier had captured the
personality of his son in the painting. The father was so drawn to the eyes
that his own eyes welled up with tears. He thanked the young man and offered to
pay him for the picture.. &#39;Oh, no sir, I could never repay what your son did
for me. It&#39;s a gift.&#39;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
The father hung the portrait over his mantle. Every time
visitors came to his home he took them to see the portrait of his son before he
showed them any of the other great works he had collected.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
The man died a few months later. There was to be a great
auction of his paintings. Many influential people gathered, excited over seeing
the great paintings and having an opportunity to purchase one for their
collection.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
On the platform sat the painting of the son. The auctioneer
pounded his gavel. &#39;We will start the bidding with this picture of the son. Who
will bid for this picture?&#39;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
There was silence...&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
Then a voice in the back of the room shouted, &#39;We want to
see the famous paintings. Skip this one.&#39;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
But the auctioneer persisted. &#39;Will somebody bid for this
painting? Who will start the bidding? $100, $200?&#39;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
Another voice angrily. &#39;We didn&#39;t come to see this painting.
We came to see the Van Gogh&#39;s, the Rembrandt&#39;s&amp;nbsp;
Get on with the Real bids!&#39;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
But still the auctioneer continued. &#39;The son! The son!
Who&#39;ll take the son?&#39;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
Finally, a voice came from the very back of the room. It was
the longtime gardener of the man and his son. &#39;I&#39;ll give $10 for the
painting...&#39; Being a poor man, it was all he could afford.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
&#39;We have $10, who will bid $20?&#39;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
&#39;Give it to him for $10. Let&#39;s see the masters.&#39;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
The crowd was becoming angry. They didn&#39;t want the picture
of the son.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
They wanted the more worthy investments for their
collections.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
The auctioneer pounded the gavel.. &#39;Going once, twice, SOLD
for $10!&#39;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
A man sitting on the second row shouted, &#39;Now let&#39;s get on
with the collection!&#39;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
The auctioneer laid down his gavel. &#39;I&#39;m sorry, the auction
is over.&#39;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
&#39;What about the paintings?&#39;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiy4dXllZ5wqq-CdsItXf-zTrhLplpf-M-qUnSBo-cQHPhkqObXaF277ZhoT89DJoelytinuo2QRQSSn6wVG8pf8PL7XjLRSvmcVAhv7Az1jm8kUolKJg0HFdC-Vj38r0qrVnptxk9c/s1600/0.jpg&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; height=&quot;240&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiy4dXllZ5wqq-CdsItXf-zTrhLplpf-M-qUnSBo-cQHPhkqObXaF277ZhoT89DJoelytinuo2QRQSSn6wVG8pf8PL7XjLRSvmcVAhv7Az1jm8kUolKJg0HFdC-Vj38r0qrVnptxk9c/s320/0.jpg&quot; width=&quot;320&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&#39;I am sorry. When I was called to conduct this auction, I
was told of a secret stipulation in the will... I was not allowed to reveal
that stipulation until this time. Only the painting of the son would be
auctioned. Whoever bought that painting would inherit the entire estate,
including the paintings.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
The man who took the son gets everything!&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
God gave His son over 2,000 years ago to die on the Cross.
Much like the auctioneer, His message today is: &#39;The Son, the Son, who&#39;ll take
the Son?&#39;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
Because, you see, whoever takes the Son gets everything!&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
FOR GOD SO LOVED THE WORLD HE GAVE HIS ONLY BEGOTTEN SON,
WHO SO EVER BELIEVETH, SHALL HAVE ETERNAL LIFE...THAT&#39;S LOVE.&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
A little boy wanted to meet God. He knew it was a long trip
to where God lived, so he packed his suitcase with a bag of potato chips and a
six-pack of root beer and started his journey.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
When he had gone about three blocks, he met an old man. He
was sitting in the park, just staring at some pigeons. The boy sat down next to
him and opened his suitcase. He was about to take a drink from his root beer
when he noticed that the old man looked hungry, so he offered him some chips.
He gratefully accepted it and smiled at him.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
His smile was so pretty that the boy wanted to see it again,
so he offered him a root beer. Again, he smiled at him. The boy was delighted!&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
They sat there all afternoon eating and smiling, but they
never said a word.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
As twilight approached, the boy realized how tired he was
and he got up to leave; but before he had gone more than a few steps, he turned
around, ran back to the old man, and gave him a hug. He gave him his biggest
smile ever..&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
When the boy opened the door to his own house a short time
later, his mother was surprised by the look of joy on his face. She asked him,
&quot;What did you do today that made you so happy?&quot;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
He replied, &quot;I had lunch with God.&quot; But before his
mother could respond, he added, &quot;You know what? He&#39;s got the most beautiful
smile I&#39;ve ever seen!&quot;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
Meanwhile, the old man, also radiant with joy, returned to
his home. His son was stunned by the look of peace on his face and he asked,
&quot;dad, what did you do today that made you so happy?&quot;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
He replied &quot;I ate potato chips in the park with
God.&quot; However, before his son responded, he added, &quot;You know, he&#39;s
much younger than I expected.&quot;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a
kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of
caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around. People come into
our lives for a reason, a season, or a lifetime! Embrace all equally!&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
Have lunch with God.......bring chips.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
One world. One voice.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I see who ever worked on this Blog spent lots of time building Links and wrote lots of posts...&lt;br /&gt;
I promised my God and my Lord long ago that Id make a web page for him.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I just want to say.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I love you my brother. My lord (Christ loves you) and hatred is not the way. &amp;nbsp;Killing yourself because some cleric says that&#39;s the way is insane.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Read ALL the Scripture you believe in and Pray to the LIVING God. He doesn&#39;t want any to destroy themselves and hurt others to further any worldly groups movement of this world.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This world is only a dream..... A test....&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And how you treat your brother, no matter their beliefs, is more important and vital than proving any earth based groups or ideas is the ONLY WAY to enlightenment.. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Peace and love... for all my brothers..</description><link>http://oneworld-onevoice.blogspot.com/2012/09/the-voice-is-gods-and-we-are-wrong.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Holiday Spirit)</author></item></channel></rss>
