WALK WITH GOD...
"Make my feet swift and sure, Lord, to stay upon the right path; tune my heart and tone my muscles that I might be fit to serve you; let me run the race with diligence and persistence; renew my spirit with enthusiasm when I feel like turning back; keep the road free and clear from distractions, and guard my steps with safery; keep my eyes fixed securely on the goal; and when I've completed all my laps, let me rest in your arms of love"...

3/16/2000
How long will it last, will it last forever
I ask this question for God’s mind to endeavor
When I go, when I’m past on and gone
Will you take me to those golden streets in Heaven?
I know my life’s work, and my dirty deeds
Can’t compare to the forgiveness I seek in thee
Through all the humility and all the shame
I knew always of your name
It’s a name of Power, Humble Content, and Love
Only when it got rough, did push grow to shove
My mind is clear now, the focus so straight
I will go till I see the Hands of Fate
Only then, in my path, will its presence be, I meet
Then the answer to my question will be lying at my feet
In that moment alone, will you take me from
This world of yours, to another you call Home
I’ll wish for eternity and Angel like wings
I’m sure I’ll even earn my Halo and things
Lord, I thank thee for this feeling in life
God, Amen, to you who art so high!

I watched the sun rise from a sober eye
As the morn set on the moon
I realized it would be gone soon
A young heart dreams above
Keeping mine from callouse
A watchful eye in heaven
Touches my heart
Fear of what time holds for me
Yet looking forward for time to heal me
Ghosts in my past pat my back
Tears are like an everflowing waterfall
I see the mess I've left
And pray that the pieces fit well
I wish for a heart of gold
And a mind not my own
The things I've touched
I hope I've not harmed
To be free of mind and body, heart and soul
Not knowing, yet knowing, who am I?
A reflection of what's to come set by my past
Hoping to dream again, a new light will come
New beginnings, a way of life
Things I've buried, things I might
Lord help me rise from the ashes
With this new desire
A fire I set many, many years ago
Sleep deprived but I'll get my time
This grain of sand I am
Yet without it the earth is incomplete
When will this ocean of life take me
The cemetary gates are open, I'm done yesterday
I watched the sun rise from a sober eye!

I did not write this, but I was so moved by it that I had to post it. I'm sure that I've said these words a thousand times, just not in this direct order. Please open your heart when you read this. It opened mine just a little more! - Scott
Author Unknown;
I know you.
God granted me my only wish, and to become more loving, truthful, and a honest person.
I forgive you for those hateful comments about me.
I broke your heart, and lied to you.
I know it's over forever between us.
Just know that I have changed.
JUST FOR TODAY: I will live through this day only. I will not brood about yesterday or obsess about tomorrow. I will not set far-reaching goals or try to overcome all of my problems at once.
I know that I can do something for 24 hours that would overwhelm me if I had to keep it up for a lifetime.
JUST FOR TODAY: I will be happy. I will not dwell on thoughts that depress me. If my mind fills with clouds, I will chase them away and fill it with sunshine.
JUST FOR TODAY: I will accept what is. I will face reality. I will correct those things that I can correct and accept those I cannot.
JUST FOR TODAY: I will improve my mind. I will read something that requires effort, thought and concentration. I will not be a mental loafer.
JUST FOR TODAY: I will make a conscious effort to be agreeable. I will be kind and courteous to those who cross my path, and I'll not speak ill of others. I will improve my appearance, speak softly, and not interrupt when someone else is talking.
Just for today, I will refrain from improving anybody but myself.
JUST FOR TODAY: I will do something positive to improve my health. I was a smoker, I quit. I am overweight, I will eat healthfully -- if only just for today. And not only that, I will get off the couch and take a brisk walk, even if it's only around the block.
JUST FOR TODAY: I will gather the courage to do what is right and take responsibility for my own actions.
I have stoped drinking, and it's been 1 1/2 years since I touched a drop of booze.
You know me, and I am a good person.
Maybe someday for someone new!?!
Someone you never loved or respected. So go on now, and think of me as dead.
Peace, and love to you from me.
You know who."
