Page 12 - Good News February 2009 paper

ast week I threw out WORRYING.
It was getting old and in the way.
LIt kept me from being me. I
couldn't do things GOD'S WAY.
I threw out a book on MY PAST…
(Didn't have time to read it anyway).
Replaced it with NEW GOALS, started
reading it today.
I threw out HATE and BAD MEMORIES.
(Remember how I treasured them so)?
Got me a NEW PHILOSOPHY too.
Threw out the one from long ago.
Brought in some new books too, called
I CAN, I WILL, and I MUST.
Threw out I MIGHT, I THINK and I
OUGHT. WOW, you should've seen the dust!
I ran across an OLD FRIEND, I hadn't talked to in a
while.
His name is JESUS, and I really like HIS style.
He helped me to do some cleaning and added some
things HIMSELF.
Like PRAYER, HOPE, FAITH and LOVE!
Yes... I placed them right on the shelf.
I picked up a special thing and placed it at the front
door.
I found it - it's called PEACE. Nothing gets me down
anymore.
Oh yes, I've got my house looking very nice.
Looks good around the place!
For things like WORRY and TROUBLE there just
isn't any space anymore!
It's good to do a little house cleaning. Get rid of the
things on your shelves.
It sure makes things brighter. Maybe you should
TRY IT YOURSELF!

May the Lord bless you exceedingly abundantly
above all you could ever hope for (Ephesians 3:20).
BE BLESSED AND BE A BLESSING TO SOMEONE
ELSE!!!
