What are You Doing With Your Time?

 

Does time matter that much?

Is time--a little or a lot--all that important?

Consider the following:

To realize the value of one year, ask a student who failed a grade.
To realize the value of one month, ask a mother who gave birth to a premature baby.
To realize the value of one week, ask the editor of a weekly newspaper.
To realize the value of one day, ask a daily-wage laborer with several childrens mouths to feed.
To realize the value of one hour, ask the lovers who are waiting to meet.
To realize the value of one minute, ask a person who missed the train.
To realize the value of one second, ask a person who just avoided an accident.
To realize the value of one millisecond, ask a person who won a silver medal at the Olympics.
The anonymous author of these words helps us realize just how important time is. Jesus Christ told us to be careful how we handle our time, asking, "Are there not twelve hours in the day [the daylight portion of the 24-hour cycle]?
If anyone walks in the day, he does not stumble, because he sees the light of the world.
But if one walks in the night, he stumbles, because the light is not in him" (John 11:9-10)
I read this in The Good News Magazine and thought I would share it.

Black Woman Cake...written by a Black Man
(Mr. Magic-Black Planet)

THERE WERE SPECIAL INGREDIENTS GOD USED IN MAKING A GOOD BLACK WOMAN

I'm making a black woman cake cause I'm
hungry as hell. And the sweet tooth I have only a sista
can break the spell. Let me reach into my spice rack to
see what I can get. To make a mix that will stick to my
stomach you can bet.
2 cups of intelligence

1 cup of sugar brown
(Cause she's got to be sweet, mental, deep and
sound)

Cinnamon is always good to accent the taste

A few cups of culture, so she's down for her race
(You see I won't bite into anything
that's not conscious of its own, that's why I
stick to chocolate and leave angel food alone)

I am adding butter cause she must be smooth

2 raisins for the dimples will also be cool

I must add eggs so she can reproduce
(Can't leave her hanging cause I like children
too)

I think I'll add a little salt, to balance her out
And a dominant profile, to show she has clout

For a responsible woman, I'll throw in some yeast
(So she'll swell with juices, when I'm
ready to feast)

I'll add 7 cups of courage and into the oven to
bake.

Turn it to 360 degrees, To balance out her mental
state.

Now that it's done brothas, I won't share her
wealth, but I'm sharing the recipe as I'm
consuming this black woman all by myself.

Good Black Women are indeed all around us.

We pass them on the streets, in the malls, in captivity behind the walls, and in the hall at work. Most we can't see because we don't know what a good woman really looks like. She usually isn't flashy enough or rich enough to turn our heads. She might not wear a fur coat or push a Lexus. She might not have a "body by Fisher" or a face for "Ebony." But as you mature, you realize it's better to find someone who's got your back than someone who turns your head.

A Good Black Woman doesn't agree whole-heartedly
with everything you say. She doesn't just tell you
what you want to hear and do the opposite. She
doesn't have to declare how sensitive, sweet,
caring, sincere, yada, yada, yada, she is (she
won't have to...because it shows). She has her
own opinions, and you may clash, but she doesn't
have to degrade you to prove she's right. She even
admits at times to being wrong, especially if you are willing to do the same.

A Good Black Woman is not going to meet every item on your checklist. She is human with frailties &
faults mixed in with all of her wonderful, sensual attributes.

She needs your love & respect. She needs to feel
that you don't have to catch her doing something
wrong so you can declare "Aha I knew all
along"

A Good Black Woman doesn't necessarily give you a
huge Birthday or Valentine gift. She shows her love in the ways that are comfortable to her. Don't judge
her by TV standards. No one is living that Fairy
tale--for real.

BLACK WOMEN, we salute you, and thank you for who you are, and all you've done.

The Sad Passing of Common Sense 

Today we mourn the passing of a beloved old friend, Common Sense, who has been with us for many years.

No one knows for sure how old he was since his birth records were long ago lost in bureaucratic red tape.

He will be remembered as having cultivated such valuable lessons as knowing when to come in out of the rain, why the early bird gets the worm, life isn't always fair , and maybe it was my fault.

Common Sense lived by simple, sound financial policies (don't spend more than you earn) and reliable parenting strategies (adults, not children, are in charge).

His health began to deteriorate rapidly when well intentioned but overbearing regulations were set in place.

Reports of a six-year-old boy charged with sexual harassment for kissing a classmate; teens suspended from school for using mouthwash after lunch; and teacher fired for reprimanding an unruly student, only worsened his condition.

Common Sense lost ground when parents attacked teachers for doing the job they themselves failed to do in disciplining their unruly children.

It declined even further when schools were required to get parental consent to administer Panadol, sun lotion or a sticky plaster to a student but could not inform the parents when a student became pregnant and wanted to have an abortion.

Common Sense lost the will to live as the Ten Commandments became contraband; churches became businesses ; and criminals received better
treatment than their victims.

Common Sense took a beating when you couldn't defend yourself from a burglar in your own home and the burglar can sue you for assault.

Common Sense finally gave up the will to live after a woman failed to realize that a steaming cup of coffee was hot. She spilled a little in her lap and was promptly awarded a huge settlement.

Common Sense was preceded in death by his parents, Truth and Trust; by his wife, Discretion; by his daughter, Responsibility; and by his son, Reason.

He is survived by three stepbrothers: I Know My Rights, Someone Else is to Blame, and I'm A Victim.

Not many attended his funeral because so few realized he was gone.

If you still remember him, pass this on. If not join the majority and do nothing.

Best Poem in the World 

I was shocked, confused, bewildered
as I entered Heaven's door,
Not by the beauty of it all,
Nor the lights, nor its decor.

But it was the folks in Heaven
who made me sputter and gasp--
the thieves, the liars, the sinners,
the alcoholics, and the trash...

There stood that kid from seventh grade
Who swiped my lunch money twice.
Next to him was my old neighbor
Who never said anything nice.

Herb, who I always thought,
would be rotting away in hell,
was sitting pretty on cloud nine,
Looking incredibly well.

I nudged Jesus, "What's the deal?
I'd love to hear Your take.
How'd all these sinners get up here?"
God must've made a mistake.

"And why's everyone so quiet,
so somber? Please, give me a clue."
"Hush, child," said He, "they're all in shock;
No one thought they'd be seeing you."

Judge NOT.

Good Morning, this is GOD 

PhotobucketI will be handling ALL your problems today.

Please remember ...
I WILL NOT NEED YOUR HELP!!!

If life happens to deliver a situation to you that you cannot handle, do not attempt to resolve it. Kindly put it in the SFGTD Box (something for God to do). It will be addressed in My time, not yours. Once the matter is placed into the box, do not hold onto it.
If you find yourself stuck in traffic, don't despair. There are people in this world for whom driving is an unheard of privilege.

Should you have a bad day at work, think of the man who has been out of work for years.

Should you despair over a relationship gone bad, think of the person who has never known what it's like to love and be loved in return.

Should you grieve the passing of another weekend, think of the woman in dire straits, working twelve hours a day, seven days a week to feed her children.

Should your car break down, leaving you miles away from assistance, think of the paraplegic who would love the opportunity to take that walk.

Should you notice a new gray hair in the mirror, think of the cancer patient in chemo who wishes she had hair to examine.

Should you find yourself at a loss and pondering what is life all about, asking what is my purpose? Be thankful! There are those who didn't live long enough to get the opportunity.

Should you find yourself the victim of other people's bitterness, ignorance, smallness or insecurities, remember ... things could be worse. You could be them!!!!

So, just relax, and have a
GREAT DAY!

Matthew 11:28
"Come unto me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden,
and I will give you rest."

Poems from my Friends

Loading poll. Please Wait...

Thought for2008 

PhotobucketIf God had a refrigerator, your picture would be on it.

If He had a wallet, your photo would be in it.
He sends you flowers every spring.
He sends you a sunrise every morning
Face it, friend - He is crazy about you!
God didn't promise days without pain, laughter without sorrow, sun without rain, but He did promise strength for the day, comfort for the tears, and light for the way.

Read this line very slowly and let it sink in...

If God brings you to it, He will bring you through it.

The Brick 

A young and successful executive was travelling down a neighbourhood street, going a bit too fast in his new Jaguar.

He was watching for kids darting out from between parked cars and slowed down When he thought he saw something.

As his car passed, no children appeared. Instead, a brick smashed into the Jag's side door!

He slammed on the brakes and backed the Jag back to the spot where the brick had been thrown. The angry driver then jumped out of the car, grabbed the nearest kid and pushed him up against a parked car shouting.

"What was that all about and who are you? Just what the heck are you doing? That's a new car and that brick you threw is going to cost a lot of money. Why did you do it?"

The young boy was apologetic. "Please, mister...please, I'm sorry but I didn't know what else to do," He pleaded.

"I threw the brick because no one else would stop..."

With tears dripping down his face and off his chin, the youth pointed to a spot just around a parked car.

"It's my brother, "he said "He rolled off the curb and fell out of his wheelchair and I can't lift him up."

Now sobbing, the boy asked the stunned executive, "Would you please help me get him back into his wheelchair? He's hurt and he's too heavy for me."

Moved beyond words, the driver tried to swallow the rapidly swelling lump in his throat. He hurriedly lifted the handicapped boy back into the wheelchair, then took out a linen handkerchief and dabbed at the fresh scrapes and cuts.

A quick look told him everything was going to be okay.

"Thank you and may God bless you," the grateful child told the stranger.

Too shook up for words, the man simply watched the boy push his wheelchair-bound brother down the sidewalk toward their home.

It was a long, slow walk back to the Jaguar. The damage was very noticeable, but the driver never bothered to repair the dented side door. He kept the dent there to remind him of this message: "Don't go through life so fast that someone has to throw a brick at you to get your attention!"


God whispers in our souls and speaks to our hearts. Sometimes when we don't have time to listen, He has to throw a brick at us. It's our choice to listen or not.

A Woman Over 50 

PhotobucketPhotobucketA women over 50 will not lay next to you in bed and ask, "What are you thinking?" She doesn't care what you think.

If a woman over 50 doesn't want to watch the game, she doesn't sit around whining about it. She does something she wants to do. And it's usually more interesting.

Few women past the age of 50 give a damn what you think about her or what she's doing.

Women over 50 are dignified. They seldom have a screaming match with you at the opera or in the middle of an expensive restaurant. Of course, if you deserve it, they won't hesitate to shoot you if they think they can get away with it.

Older women are generous with praise, often undeserved. They know what it's like to be unappreciated.

A woman over 50 has the self-assurance to introduce you to her woman friends. A younger woman with a man will often ignore even her best friend because she doesn't trust the guy with other women. Women over 50 couldn't care less if you're attracted to her friends because she knows her friends won't betray her.

Women get psychic as they age. You never have to confess your sins to a woman over 50. They always know.

Older women are forthright and honest. They'll tell you right off if you are a jerk or if you are acting like one! You don't ever have to wonder where you stand with her.

Yes, we praise women over 50 for a multitude of reasons. Unfortunately, it's not reciprocal. For ever stunning, smart, well-coiffed woman of 50+, there is a balding paunchy relic who thinks he's 20 years younger than he is making a fool of himself with some young waitress or secretary.

For all men who say, "Why buy the cow when you can get the milk for free, " here's an update for you.

Nowadays 80% of women are against marriage. Why? Because women realize it's not worth buying an entire pig to get a little sausage.
