" Is the power to heal the power to suffer?Why when power went out,
did pain come in. "
Life is a paradox. What you want, you may not get; what you get, you may not enjoy; what you enjoy is not permanent; what's permanent may not satisfy. Therefore my friend, seek real happiness from God alone. He's permanent and He can give you the contenment this life can never offer.
Listen:
It is easy to love Him when the blue is in the sky,
When the summer winds are blowing and we smell the roses nigh;
There is little effort needed to obey His precious will
When it leads through flower-decked valley, or over sun-kissed hill.
It is when the rain is falling, or the mist hangs in the air,
When the road is dark and rugged, and the wind no longer fair,
When the rosy dawm has settled in a shadowland of gray,
That we find it hard to trust Him, and are slower to obey.
It is easy to trust Him when the singing birds have come,
and their songs of praise are echoed in our heart and in our home;
But it'w when we miss the music, and the days are dull and drear,
That we need a faith triumphant over every doubt and fear.
And our blessed Lord will give it; what we lack He will supply;
Let us ask in faith believing....on His promise rely;
He will ever be our Leader, whether smooth or rough the way.
And will prove Himself sufficient for the needs of every day.
Trusting even when it appears you have been forsaken; praying when it seems your words are simply entering a vast expanse when no one hears and no voice answers; believing that God's love is complete and that He is aware of your circumstances, even when your world seems to grind on as if setting its own direction and not caring for life or moving one inch in response to your petitions; desiring only what God's hand have planned for you; waiting patiently while seemingly starving to death, with your only fear being that your faith might fail...." this is the victory that has overcome the world"; this is genuine faith indeed.

A good inspirational post, Norie.
"It is the first point of happiness that a man is willing to be what he is."
And happiness is within us.There is no need to search outside.
Peace and happiness comes with His Grace.
God bless you.
Good back ground music. Pl. listen to mine.
I fully agree with you surjit that "happiness is within us" and it "comes with His grace." I must first embrace and accept myself as I am in order to recieve the grace of peace and happiness and I have to desire it.
Your music inspire me. Surjit, may He gives you this grace always and watch over you and keep you from harm.
