A TRIBUTE TO MY MOTHER

A Happy Mother's Day to you
God's Blessing and God's peace
These best gifts I wish for you
And that loved ones never cease
To love you just because you're you
For all the things you are
Loving Mother, Helper, Friend, and Guide
For all the prayers prayed thru'
A friend to those who know you not.
Because you are like Him.
Who fed the hungry multitude
And pardoned those who sin
A helper to some one in need
The sick, the blind, the lame
A guide to point the way for them
Who know not His Name.
Your Mother love proved strong and true
For when the way grew dim
You held the light up higher
To brighten the pathway to Him
I thank God for every blessing
Heavenly and all others
But best of earthly Blessings are
A Godly Christian Mother.

3 Bullets

There once was a man who had nothing for his family to eat. He had an old rifle and three bullets.

So, he decided that he would go out hunting and kill some wild game for dinner.

As he went down the road, he saw a rabbit. He shot at the rabbit and missed it. The rabbit ran away.

Then he saw a squirrel and fired a shot at the squirrel, but missed it. The squirrel disappeared into a hole in a cottonwood treel.

As he went further, he saw a large, wild "Tom" turkey in the tree, but he had only one bullet remaining.

A voice spoke to him and said, "Pray first, aim high, and stay focused."

However, at the same time he saw a deer which was a better kill.

He brought the gun down and aimed at the deer. But, then he saw a rattlesnake between his legs, about to bite him, so he naturally brought the gun down further to shoot the rattlesnake.

Still, the voice said again to him, "I said, 'Pray, Aim high, and Stay focused."

So, the man decided to listen to God's voice.

He prayed, then aimed the gun high up in the tree, and shot the wild turkey.

The bullet bounced off the turkey and killed the deer.

The handle fell off the gun, hit the snake in the head, and killed it. And, when the gun had gone off, it knocked him into a pond.

When he stood up to look around, he had fish in all his pockets, a dead deer, and a turkey for his family to eat.

The snake, (Satan), was dead simply because the man listened to God.

Moral of the story:
Pray first before you do anything, aim and shoot high in your goals, and stay focused on God.
