Brain Based Biz: Jazz Stirs Creative Flow
Today I have discovered the most interesting (to date) blog. I was searching for the way color influences consumer purchases. I found a blog with the information I was looking for, then wandered through a garden of literary, artsy, and scientific blog entries written in such a readable manner that I was unable to tear myself away.
I spent quite a long time reading, following links, and just enjoying the afternoon. I can't remember when I have been that caught up in something other than a book. If you happen to read this, please stop by and make a new friend. Tell her that Ruth sent you.

Another D. Bailey Poem
NOTE: I was going to wait awhile before posting any more of D. Bailey's poems. I thought to write something original until, while transcribing this latest work, I realized that what he had written was far superior to anything I could say. I am honored to share this with you today. It is my prayer that someone will be blessed by reading this.
A Life Worth Living
I was in
this world all alone! I, in my
need, searching
for love and care, walking
a road not
paved with gold! Instead,
Death and
Hate and Despair!
Unconditionally,
I would to man
give my
all, never to receive in return...
Not
understanding what was inside
of me, that
yearned and yearned
As my spirit was left contrite
and broken, knowing I would follow
the path paved for Hell.
Not understanding that every time
death came for me; how it was that every
time I prevailed!
I had given up on Life in
time of need; but - it was in this very hour
that I always saw God's over-coming power.
You see, I'm the sheep who ran away,
I'm the one who left God's flock.
But, my God, who knows my name,
set my feet upon a rock; and I said to this rock,
"You are the Son of the Living God, who
is a
consuming flame; if there is a life worth
living –
Please,
show me how
to change!"
"I realize
that I'm a mess, although I have
a willing
heart." He said, "My son, all
I want
is for you
to simply start. No matter how low the
valley;
and the hills, they do get steep.
But those
whom I have called –
I'll assure you – those I'll also keep!
"All
I need is a willing vessel; I'll water;
you just
plant the seed.
According
to My riches in Glory,
I'll
supply your every need.
Just put
one foot in front of
the other;
in all your ways
acknowledge
me; I'll see you through.
But - you
must give up your old life - for
Behold!
Everything is new!
Now I
don't claim to have reached the goal
My savior
has in mind. But, before
I found
Him, I couldn't see!
Now, I'm
no longer blind.
Led by the
Holy Spirit, of His
compassion
I'm actually a part.
so no
matter what this world has
to offer I
will serve Him
with all
my heart.
Now I know
things get overwhelming
a hurt
that seems so deep and rare;
cut to the
heart, we lay broken in this
aching misery
and despair.
But God
wants us to know that the
final word
is etched in stone.
as He
said, with all reverence and fear,
"There
is a day approaching soon
when I
will wipe away all tears!"
With that
said, I'll pick up my cross
and walk
in His infinite Grace – for
Philippians
4:13 says, "I can do all
things through Christ who strengthens
me."
He gives
us strength to finish this race.
