i also found this while packin some stuff:
Missions
Every morning motivated
Every new day with a purpose
Seeing the world being changed
More and more as each day begins
Really thought of the first day
When all these things began
God said ask and it will be given to you
And i asked to win the world for Him
Started this and seen the difference
Compared to when no one wants to make the changes
Really thanked God for using me
To impact the world in a unique way
I started small and moved on big
To see these lives change every minute
To see that I have played a part
To make their lives more worthwhile
Thank God for He is faithful
The harvest is there and workers nowhere
Be part of the workers, go harvest the land
And Stand proud in God's presence, saying, "I've done my best"
God will honor us for sure
If we desire to honor HIm first
Take this challenge and glorify His name
And make Him known to the ends of the earth

Jaci Velasquez Show You Love
Verse 1:
Please forgive me
If I come on too strong
I get a little anxious
When I talk about God's love
Hold me back now
Stop me if I start to preach
Cause I don't want to be the one
To push you out of reach
The way to give love
Is how you live love
That is what I'll do
You cannot fight it
You can't deny it
Love will get to you
CHORUS:
Don't wanna get up in your face
Don't wanna put the pressure on
Don't wanna make you run away
Just wanna show you love
Don't wanna beg you to believe
Don't wanna take you for a ride
Don't wanna sell you anything
Just wanna show you love
Show you love
Just wanna show you love
Verse 2:
I won't convince you
With anything I say
But maybe you will see His love
In how it is portrayed
An act of kindness
A loving sacrifice
Simple little things that have
The power to change your life
There's no surprises
And no disguises
Just the blessed truth
No obligation
No complication
Just a gift for you
CHORUS
Love's gonna get you
You know I'm gonna get you
The way to give love
Is how you live love
That is what I'll doYou cannot fight it
You can't deny it
Love will get to you(Get to you)
CHORUS
Live love
That's how you give love
Live love
That's how you give love
You guys should listen to Jaci's Imagine Me WIthout You... very nice...

Clearing my mail box when i came across this mail sent to me by Aaron...
Refiner’s Fire
A group of women were studying the book of Malachi. As they were studying Chapter Three, they came across verse 3 which says :
“ He will sit as a refiner and purifier of silver. “
This verse puzzled the women and they wondered what this statement meant about the character and nature of God. One of the women offered to find out about the process of refining silver and get back to the group at their next Bible Study.
That week this woman called up a silversmith and made and appointment to watch him at work. She didn’t mention anything about the reason for her interest in silver beyond her curiosity about the process of refining silver. As she watched the silversmith, he held a piece of silver over the fire and let it heat up. He explained that in refining silver, one needed to hold the silver in the middle of the fire where the flames were hottest so as to burn away all the impurities.
The woman thought about God holding us in such a hot spot-then she thought about the verse, that He “sits as a refiner and purifier of silver”. She asked the silversmith if it was true that he had to sit there in front of the fire the whole time the silver was being refined. The man answered that yes, he not only had to sit there holding the silver, but he had to keep his eyes on the silver the entire time it was in the fire. If the silver was left even a moment too long in the flames, it would be destroyed.
The woman was silent for a moment. Then she asked the silversmith, “How do you know when the silver is fully refined?” He smiled at her and answered, “Oh, that’s easy – when I see my image in it.”
If today you are feeling the heat of the fire, remember that you are in God’s hand, He has His eye on you, He will not let you be destroyed, and He will keep holding you and watching you until He sees His image in you.
