Tears
Let the tears flow because God understands,
What each little tear means in His wonderful plans!
He created our tears to express many things in our life,
They express our emotion, be it joy or strife.
They may be for our heartaches that need to be healed inside,
Or they may be for the happiness that His river can provide!
God created our tears for so many different reasons,
Just as He made our weather with different season's!
Tears tell God so many things about our relationship with Him,
If they be tears of joy or tears of sin!
Our Jesus wept, our Jesus cried,
When He got the news His friend Lazarus had died!
He gave to us what He Himself that day shed,
As we would do for Him,hearing, to calvary He was led.
So share with Him your sorrows & joy,your compassion,your love,
He's the Creator, our Holy Saviour, sent from above!
We don't have to speak, Jesus will hear what each tear will say,
For He gave us His promise, each one He'll wipe away!
May God Greatly Bless Your Life,
Brenda Gail Cooper
WHEN YOU THOUGHT I WASN'T LOOKING
A message every adult should read because children
are watching you and doing as you do, not as you say.
When you thought I wasn't looking I saw you hang my
first painting on the refrigerator, and I immediately
wanted to paint another one.
When you thought I wasn't looking I saw you feed a
stray cat, and I learned that it was good to be kind
to animals.
When you thought I wasn't looking I saw you make my
favorite cake for me, and I learned that the little
things can be the special things in life.
When you thought I wasn't looking I heard you say a
prayer, and I knew that there is a God I could always
talk to, and I learned to trust in Him.
When you thought I wasn't looking I saw you make a
meal and take it to a friend who was sick, and I
learned that we all have to help take care of each
other.
When you thought I wasn't looking, I saw you give of
your time and money to help people who had nothing,
and I learned that those who have something should
give to those who don't.
When you thought I wasn't looking I saw you take care
of our house and everyone in it, and I learned we have
to take care of what we are given.
When you thought I wasn't looking I saw how you
handled your responsibilities, even when you didn' t
feel good, and I learned that I would have to be
responsible when I grow up.
When you thought I wasn't looking I saw tears come
from your eyes, and I learned that sometimes things
hurt, but it's all right to cry.
When you thought I wasn't looking I saw that you
cared, and I wanted to be everything that I could be.
When you thought I wasn't looking I learned most of
life's lessons that I need to know to be a good and
productive person when I grow up.
When you thought I wasn't looking I looked at you and
wanted to say,'Thanks for all the things I saw when
you thought I wasn't looking.'
Most people don’t remember that little eyes see a lot!
Let this teach us as parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles, teachers,
friends, that we do influence the life of a child.
Always remember…we must show through our actions how important
God is by how we treat Him in our daily lives.
