JESSIE FINDING JESUS.

A little girl in a wretched tenement in New York stood by her
mother's death-bed, and heard her last words: "Jessie, find Jesus."

When her mother was buried, her father took to drink, and
Jessie was left to such care as a poor neighbor could give her.

One day she wandered off unmissed, with a little basket in her
hand, and tugged through one street after another, not knowing
where she went. She had started out to find Jesus. At last she
stopped, from utter weariness, in front of a saloon. A young man
staggered out of the door, and almost stumbled over her. He
uttered passionately the name of Him whom she was seeking.
" Where is He?" she inquired eagerly.

He looked at her in amazement. "What did you say?" he asked.

"Will you please tell me where Jesus Christ is? For I must find Him "
- this time with great earnestness.

The young man looked at her curiously for a minute without speaking,
and then his face sobered; and he said in a broken, husky voice,
hopelessly: "I don't know, child; I don't know where he is." At
length the little girl's wanderings brought her to the park. A woman,
evidently a Jewess, was leaning against the railing, looking
disconsolately at the green grass and the trees.
Jessie went up to her timidly. "Perhaps she can tell me where he is,"
was the child's thought. In a low, hesitating voice, she asked the
woman: "Do you know Jesus Christ?"

The Jewess turned fiercely to face her questioner, and in a tone of
suppressed passion, exclaimed: "Jesus Christ is dead!" Poor Jessie
trudged on, but soon a rude boy jostled against her, and snatching
her basket from her hand, threw it into the street. Crying, she ran
to pick it up. The horses of a passing streetcar trampled her under
their feet and she knew no more till she found herself stretched
on a hospital bed.

When the doctors came that night, they knew she could not live
until morning. In the middle of the night, after she had been lying
very still for a long time, apparently asleep, she suddenly opened
her eyes, and the nurse, bending over her, heard her whisper, while
her face lighted up with a smile that had some of heaven's own
gladness in it: "O Jesus, I have found you at last!"

Then the tiny lips were hushed, but the questioning spirit had
received an answer.

The Life I Planned

Has someone seen the life I planned?
It seems it's been misplaced.
I've looked in every corner;
It's lost without a trace.

I've found one I don't recognize --
Things missing that were dear;
Promises I'd hoped to keep,
And dreams I'd dreamed aren't here.

Faces I had planned to see,
Hands I planned to hold;
Now absent in the pictures;
Not the way I told.

Has someone seen the life I planned?
Did it get thrown away?
God took my hand from searching;
Then I heard Him say --

"Child, your ears have never heard,
Your eyes have never seen,
Eternal plans I have for you
Are more than you could dream.

You long to walk by sight,
But I'm teaching eyes to see;
I know what I'm doing --
'Till then, you must believe.

He's done so much, I felt ashamed
To know He heard my moans.
To think I'd trade in all He's done
For plans made on my own.

I wept over His faithfulness
And how He'd proved Himself;
How He'd gone beyond my dreams
And said to Him myself,

"No, my ears have never heard,
My eyes have never seen,
Eternal plans You have for me
Are more than I could dream.

"Yes, I long to walk by sight
But You're teaching eyes to see;
You know what You're doing --
'Till then, I must believe.

I felt His great compassion --
Mercy unrestrained.
He let me mourn my losses
And showed to me my gains.

I offered Him my future
And released to Him my past.
I traded in my dreams
For a plan He said would last.

I get no glimpse ahead;
No certainties at all,
Except the presence of the One
Who will not let me fall.

Are you also searching
For a life you planned yourself?
Have you looked in every corner?
Have you checked on every shelf?

Child, your ears have never heard,
Your eyes have never seen,
Eternal plans He has for you
Are more than you could dream.

Perhaps you long to walk by sight,
But He's teaching eyes to see;
He knows what He is doing --
Child, step out and believe.

By Beth Moore

No eye has seen, no ear has heard,
no mind has conceived what God
has prepared for those who love Him.
{1 Corinthians 2:9}

I AM THANKFUL:

- for the wife who says it's hot dogs tonight, because she is home
with me, and
not out with someone else.

- for the husband who is on the sofa being a couch potato, because he
is home
with me and not out at the bars.

- for the teenager who is complaining about doing dishes because it
means she is
at home, not on the streets.

- for the taxes I pay because it means i am employed.

- for the mess to clean after a party because it means I have been
surrounded by
friends.

- for the clothes that fit a little too snug because it means I have
enough to
eat.

- for my shadow that watches me work because it means I am out in the
sunshine

- for a lawn that needs mowing, windows that need cleaning, and
gutters that need
fixing because it means I have a home.

- for all the complaining I hear about the government because it
means we have
freedom of speech.

- for the parking spot I find at the far end of the parking lot
because it means
I am capable of walking and I have been blessed with transportation.

- for my huge heating bill because it means I am warm.

- for the lady behind me in church who sings off key because it means
I can hear.

- for the pile of laundry and ironing because it means I have clothes
to wear.

- for weariness and aching muscles at the end of the day because it
means I have
been capable of working hard.

- for the alarm that goes off in the early morning hours because it
means I am
alive.

- and finally, for too much e-mail because it means I have friends
who are
thinking of me.


Christine

Just a Moment
Just One
One song can spark a moment,
One flower can wake the dream.
One tree can start a forest,
One bird can herald spring.

One smile begins a friendship,
One handclasp lifts a soul.
One star can guide a ship at sea,
One word can frame the goal.

One vote can change a nation,
One sunbeam lights a room.
One candle wipes out darkness,
One laugh will conquer gloom.

One step must start each journey,
One word must start each prayer.
One hope will raise our spirits,
One touch can show you care.

One voice can speak with wisdom,
One heart can know what's true.
One life can make the difference,
You see it's up to YOU!"
