Neat Poem on Forgiveness!

**
~~~THE GIFT OF FORGIVENESS~~~~~~~~

I have a gift for you!
It is the gift of lightness!
Of the airsome heart
Of the free and unfettered mind!

It is the gift of
the clear eye,
the unburdened conscience,
and the unshackled past.

And the gift of high nobility!
Of royal benevolence,
and kingly strength
of queenly compassion;

The gift of young prince-like daring,
and the tenderness of heart
of young princesses caring.

Ah, the gift I have for you,
is a gift like no others!
For after all that we've been through
it is all gifts
Mother of Mothers!

For now that you've seen
how precious indeed life is,
How can you waste a minute
in harbor where strife is?

What good does it do
carrying a grudge,
any hardness of heart,
any spiritual sludge!

They weigh upon your sleep
They blight your sun with haze,
casting dark shadows
over even your brightest days.

And for times when you are the transgressor,
keep these ready upon your lips;
Creations two most powerful words!
which grace delightfully encrypts:

"I'm sorry" to those when,
perhaps you are not even the one to blame,
and yet in so saying melts
hardened hearts with angels aim.

To forgive
and ask for forgiveness,
acknowledges we are all naught
but simply human;

Opens hearts
lights a light
where -giver and givee
are then illumined.

We are all but on a path
stumbling everyday;
We're indeed naught but children
learning in every way;

Trying to get it right,
but often tripping over our own good intention,
Yet on wings of forgiveness rise
phoenixes in divine ascension!

Many Uses for WD-40

WD-40 was created in 1953 by three technicians at the San Diego Rocket Chemical Company. Its name comes from the project that was to find a 'water displacement' compound. They were successful with the fortieth formulation, thus WD-40. The Corvair Company bought it in bulk to protect their atlas missile parts. Ken East (one o f the original founders) says there is nothing in WD-40 that would hurt you...' IT IS MADE FROM FISH OIL’.

What a great Easter Service!

We had the most phenominal Easter Services to date. Our drama and creative team did a fantastic job and we packed the church out all three services. Peoples lives were touched. I haven't heard the exact totals but it was close to 900 in those services. The most important part was that many first time guest enjoyed the service and the gospel was preached. We are blessed.
