"Grace, 'Tis a Charming Sound"

Grace, 'tis a charming sound,
Harmonious to mine ear;
Heaven with the echo shall resound,
And all the earth shall hear.

Grace first contrived the way
To save rebellious man;
And all the steps that grace display
Which drew the wondrous plan.

Grace first inscribed my name
In God's eternal book;
'Twas grace that gave me to the Lamb,
Who all my sorrows took.

Grace led my roving feet
To tread the heavenly road;
And new supplies each hour I meet,
While pressing on to God.

Grace taught my soul to pray
And made mine eyes o'erflow;
'Twas grace which kept me to this day,
And will not let me go.

I was visiting Charlene's Nook over at the THS this morning and she had this posted in her Nook Notes.  I really liked it and wanted to share it with you.

The next time you feel like GOD can't use you, just remember.......................................................
Abraham was too old
Isaac was a daydreamer
Jacob was a liar
Leah was ugly
Joseph was abused
Moses had a stuttering problem
Gideon was afraid
Samson had long hair and was a womanizer
Rahab was a harlot
Jeremiah and Timothy were too young
Elijah was suicidal
David had an affair and was a murderer
Jonah ran from God
Naomi was a widow
Job went bankrupt
Peter denied Christ
The Disciples fell asleep while praying
Martha worried about everything
The Samaritan woman was divorced more than once
Zaccheus was too small
Timothy had an ulcer........AND Lazarus was dead!
And Don't Forget Jesus Helped Them All
Now! No More Excuses! God can use you to your full potential.
Besides you aren't the message, you are just the messenger.

And one more thing.................Continue the Circle of God's love, God's waiting to use your full potential.

1.God wants spiritual fruit, not religious nuts.
2.Dear God, I have a problem, it's me.
3.There is no key to happiness. The door is always open.
4.Silence is often misinterpreted but never misquoted.
5.Do the math.....count your blessings.
6.Faith is the ability to not panic.
7.If you worry you didn't pray...If you pray, don't worry.
8.As a child of God, prayer is like calling home everyday.
9.Blessed are the flexible for they shall not be bent out of shape.
10.The most important things in your house are the people.
11.When we get tangled up in our problems, be still.
12.God wants us to be still so He can untangle the knots.
13. A grudge is a heavy thing to carry.
14.He who dies with the most toys is still dead.
*Be kinder than necessary, for everyone you met is fighting some kind of battle.
*Live simply, Love generously, Care deeply, Speak kindly...........
Leave the rest to GOD.

Have a great day!!!!!
The SON is shining and he can certainly use you!

I was over at Carole's blog and she had this great video posted that I just HAD to share with you.  It's about how moms are perhaps "invisible"  to our families, but NEVER to our Heavenly Father!   

If you get a chance, please take a look at it.  You'll be glad you did!
