Sacred Places

This was inspired by my sister's blog: http://mikekaylynn.blogspot.com/2009/03/cooking-for-twelve.html

Sacred Places

What makes a place sacred?
Is it a prayer?
A dedication?
Talking in hushed tones?
An angel from on high?

Is it a building?
A room?
A grove of trees?
A mountain top?
It is a good start.

What makes a place sacred?
A changed heart?
A soul saved?
Serviced rendered?
Love shared?

Yes, a sacred place is a place where:
Love exudes from the pours,
Salvation is accepted,
The body and or the soul is feed,
A helping hand is extended.

Places like:
The Mount of Olives,
Calvary,
The kitchen,
A child’s hand.

Lauri’s Anniversary Gift. Waring Mushy sappy poetry.

I know that this was a little late, but since we are not celebrating until this weekend it is early. She has now seen it so I can share it with others.

God’s Gift to Women

Now don’t be deceived by this title,
For I have never thought of myself as
God’s gift to women.

There are men who think that they are
God’s gift to women.
They go from one to another because
They can or at least think that they can.

Me, at best, I’m a
Large huggable bear.
Not that I thought of this on my own,
But was told this many times over.

However there one woman who thinks that I am
God’s gift to her.

It is wonderful, warming thing for a
Large huggable bear
To know that one woman thinks that he is
God’s gift to her
Even though she is wrong.

For she is
God’s gift to me.
