Life According to Ruby-

To do anything great you must take a chance...
To have character and morals and do nobal things it will cost you much.
To care for a cause or a person... it will talk a lot of your time,
To love something or someone ...it will change you completely...

Thanksgiving...

Thankful for life,
For living,
For the air we breathe and the nourishment we take in.

Thankful for good health,
For our families and loved ones,
For connections and favor.

Thankful for the sun and light and the beautiful sky,
For all the beauty of plants and flowers,
For the changes in the season,
For the rain and snow.

Thankful for all that God provides,
For His love, mercy, wisdom, Knowledge,peace and joy!
Yes we are to be thankful for all He gives so freely...

The Butterfly...

Lives a life of transformation...
It starts out not so lovely,
Then it goes through a time of transition,
Where it is secluded in a cocoon.

Something wonderful happens,
It is infused with beauty,
And when it emerges from the cocoon,
It breaks free with the glorious change,
It's colors are breathtaking,
And it is given the gift of flight.
It can now reach new heights that could never reach before...

We are like the butterfly in many ways...
It is not until God get us alone and does a transformation on us,
That our lives become a thing of beauty...

Doors... Life is all about choices...

There are many doors we will walk through,
Many roads we will travel,
Many friends we will make.

There are things we will leave behind,
Places we will leave behind,
People we will leave behind.

There are attitudes we have to adjust,
Behaviors we will have to break,
We will have to learn and grow and change,
We will have to learn to bend and flex,
If we want to do more than just survive.

We decide to stay down or get back up when we fall,
Life is all about choices...

All of this makes us who we are...
The ability we give ourselves or the
limits we place on ourself... is our choice...

Summer...

The seasons also exit in our lives,
We go through long cold winters,
We have loss,
Things die in our lives,
We move away, move on or let go,
We say bye to people, places, jobs or ways of life.

Then spring comes and
New things sprout up,
New adventures and new people come into our lives...
And life goes on.

Summer is when things really heat up,
Things really seem to thrive and anything is possible.
Maybe you've had a long hard winter...
That just seemed to drag on.
See if you can move past it.
We're in summer now... Let it inspire you to
look all around you and see what treasures you may have missed,
The things or people that are there for you.
These are your blessings...thank God for them,
It will help you change your outlook,
Which will empower you to
Search for your opportunities...and then jump on them.
I pray that with Gods help...
you Move yourself into the best summer of your life!

Love and Big Blessings to you, Ruby

May Your Heart Sing

May your every thought be covered with God's peace,
May you see the beauty in all things made by God's hand,
May the details in life bring you joy and excitment,
May you find pleasure even in the simple things,
May the sun always shine through for you,
May you have gentle breezes to keep you cool,
And sunsets to paint you a beautiful sky,

May each new day touch you in a special way,
Until it makes your heart sing...

Love...

The greatest need,
is also the very thing God told us to do,
Yet we do not listen as we should.


We all need to feel loved...and wanted.
We all need to feel we belong.

Man with all his witty inventions...
Has only put more distance between us.
We get busy... and so distracted...
That many of us can not even here our
loved ones crying out for attention.

We all long for attention and love,
We need to come out from behind all the walls
and prisions and limitations we have placed
before ourselves.

We need to look about,
We need to listen,
And we need to reach out in love,
Before it is too late...
and we have to pay the price of all our distracitons.

Who is crying out for you love today?

Prayer: God open our blind eyes so we can see.
Fill us with your wisdom to do
the things we need to do. Teach us to truly love
as you love, with no limitations. Fill us with
your boldness to go, and to say what needs to be said.
To do what needs to be done, but above all to show our love
to those who need to see and feel it right now.
In Jesus name I ask you God, let it be so ,Amen
