The priviledge

Just now a young lady walked into our store...
face seems downcast..

I went out of my office to check her out a couple of times..
she has no joy in her...
looks as if she has tons of burdens/worries weighing her down...
as she paid for a christian book and a couple of cards and poster with bible verse on them...she made a special request...

She said "Can I make a special request?"
Looking at her..I say "Sure! What can I do for you?"
She said with a serious look at her face.."Can you pray for me?"
With a smiling face I asked "What do you need me to pray for you?"
With a serious and sincere reply she said "I need Peace!"
At first I thot she wanted me to pray for her after she goes off..but she started to shut her eyes...
and there I go "Gracious Heavenly Father, I pray for XXXX that Lord you will grant her the peace and joy she need. You are the provider and You know all her needs..Be with her and provide her with all her needs. In Jesus' name I pray, Amen."

At this time a delivery man came in and she bid good-bye..
In my heart, even now...I pray that the Holy spirit will give her the peace and joy she needs.She will be fine I believe esp when prayer has been made. Just Pray and Believe.

This is a special priviledge of working in a christian bookstore.
You don't just sell Christian books and gift..to encourage them to grow in Christ and Spiritual life...You become a support to them when they needed one.
In Christ, we are all related..by the precious blood of Jesus Christ.

Amen!
I am really happy to be in this special Family of God!
No matter where we are...as long as we are a christian..we are forever treated like a family with welcome..by Christians.That's the special priviledge of Christians.

Final Destination of Everyone

Money often deceive us, leading us to forget we will die some day. Poor people will die, Rich people will also die.
In the bible, it says to the Rich, today your life will be taken from you, what will happen to the riches you have stored up for yourself.
So be Wise- store up for yourself treasures in heaven which never rot as it has eternal value.
Our stay in this world is but only max. hundred over years..
but compare to life in eternity after death, what seems long here is but only a grain in heaven.

My Zodiac

Angeline's Zodiac Sign - TAURUS

9 may Taureans never slap or sting. Rather, they creep up on you, affect you deeply and leave their indelible impression on your soul. Think of Taurus as a long sensual kiss. A huge tender bear hug. Or an eiderdown on a cold alpine night. Taureans are warm (but sometimes stodgy) customers.

Many Taureans work with their hands. Even if a Taurus is a computer expert and seems more cerebral than manual, nine times out of ten there is a hidden craft or hobby lurking behind the scenes. Taureans enjoy forging beautiful things from natural materials. In fact, they are attracted to all sorts of beauty. Music thrills them. Flowers enchant them. The countryside seduces them. And art is their natural habitat.

Taureans are forever building their own workshops and renovating barns and old churches. They are not only home-loving, they like to get their hands into the cement and slather on the plaster, if only for the tangible joy of playing in the mud.

Taureans do not take kindly to sudden change. They like to be wherever they are supposed to be when it is time to be there. Taureans readily adjust to routine and for that reason make fabulous employees. Precipitous and unexpected events requiring flexibility and resilience may cause Taureans to dig in their hooves and refuse to budge. Bulls are obstinate and determined to hold their ground. It is wiser not to try to talk Taurus out of a sulk. Just let him paw the earth and snort and seethe on his own. Take a tranquilizer and a walk. Soon, when the inevitable becomes blatantly inevitable, Taurus will budge of his own accord, come out of his sulk and go with the flow.

Sensuality belongs to Taurus. Wherever there is pleasure you will find a Taurean plunk in the middle of it all. They love to bask in the "good life." Taureans cannot resist the tug of the opposite sex. When an attractive newcomer arrives on the scene, count on Taurus to see to it that the outsiders have a drink, are made comfortable and have slipped Taurus a telephone number or two.

Taureans are amorous and romantic without being flighty or maudlin. They are tender and don't mind public displays of affection. Love and all of its expressions appeal to the Bull. Taureans can be counted on to stray a bit where sex is concerned, but they never flaunt their infidelities and usually avoid sticky extracurricular entanglements. If you love a Taurus, feed him.
