(provided by SueK) One of our friends, SueK, has been posting daily at the listserve with Angelic Quotes. I will be placing the inspirational "Angelic Quotes of the Day" on this page on a regular basis, so please check back often. ( thank you Sue ) A real friend is an Angel who warms you by her presence and remembers you in her prayers. Time Is: "Too slow for those who wait, "Too swift for those who fear, "Too long for those who grieve, "Too short for those who rejoice, "But for those who love, "Time is eternity." We are all part of the whole,but also alone on our journey.We are connected by the thread of our oneness and each of us is no less than another;We are all flowers, unique and beautiful,growing in the same earth,nourished by the same heavenly source. Women are like angels- Always up in the air, harping, and never an earthly thing to wear. Acts of Kindness warm the heart, soothe the soul, and make the world turn more gently. Do you believe in angels? Well I hope you do. You should believe in angels 'cause they believe in you ! When you love someone all your saved-up wishes start coming out. To love for the sake of being loved is human, but to love for the sake of loving is angelic. Attitudes are contagious. Do you want people around you to catch yours? When we search for truth with the Angels, an extra light has been turned on in our minds, and we will find that we understand a new common sense. The most important trip you may take in life is meeting people halfway. We may seek God by our intellect, but we only can find him with our heart. My angel whispered a secret to me - "Whenever you feel the slightest breeze... It's me flying by you on wings above... Surrounding you in unconditional love." When we reach beyond ourselves to care for another, We are often led past our own fears and limitations. Your body cannot heal without play. Your mind cannot heal without laughter. Your soul cannot heal without joy. Angels find us not only when we need them most, but when we simply need them. Angels do not obsess. Especially on having to be right. Staying open minded and embracing adventures as they unfold can be exhilarating, Allow yourself to receive the wonders awaiting you. Allow others to do the same. Find your strength in heaven's warmth. Let it lift your spirits high. Clasp your hands to God and pray, And with Angels you will fly. Every trial endured and weathered in the right spirit , makes a soul nobler and stronger than it was before. Love is perhaps the only glimpse we are permitted of eternity. Listen friend and heed love's call, To help someone in need, For someone's Angel on this day, JUST MAY BE YOU AND ME. A moment of pure happiness will last you a lifetime in a memory. When the storm seems unbearable. There is always a hand to grab you. Wings to wrap you, And a love to warm you. Fear can hold you prisoner, hope can set you free. Your worst days are never so bad that you are beyond the reach of God's grace. And your best days are never so good that you are beyond the need of God's grace. To sense the presence of an Angel Is like feeling the wind all around you. You cannot actually see the winds, but you notice It's movement, and you know it is there. Your feet can learn the steps, but only your spirit can dance! To become an angel, you must be willing to give your light to the world... (No matter how it may be treating you lately) There is an Angelic soul inside each of us that needs to be cherished. Angels take your hand in theirs when you could use a little reassurance. A little nonsense now and then, is cherished by the wisest Angels. The burdens that seemed too heavy to bear Are lifted away on the wings of a prayer. For each petal on the shamrock This brings a wish your way Good health, good luck, and happiness For today and every day. When Irish eyes are smiling, sure it's like a morn in spring, In the lilt of Irish laughter, you can hear the Angels sing. May you always find Blue Skies Above your Head Shamrocks beneath your feet Laughter and joy aplenty Kindness from all you meet Good friends and kin to miss you If you ever choose to roam And a path that's been cleared By the Angels themselves To carry you safely home. May you have: A world of wishes at your command God and his Angels close at hand Friends and family their love impart, And Irish blessings in you heart. Where Irish Angels gather 'round, heav'nly joy and love abound We cannot find God in noise or agitation. Nature: trees , flowers and grass grow in silence. The stars, the moon and the sun move in silence. What is essential is not what we say but what God tells us and what He tells others through us. In silence He listens to us, In silence He speaks to our souls. Take some time out to be silent with Him. ~Mother Teresa~ Stars are the windows of Heaven, through which the Angels peek. A sense of humor isn't for everyone. It's only for people who want to have fun, enjoy life, and feel alive. Angels remind us that we are loved, as well as needed by this world. When you live with a heart of compassion you have the heart of an Angel. Did you know? "Ange passe" -- French for "angel passing. " When there is a lull or quieting in the conversation, the French say, "ange passe," because the quiet means an angel has passed overhead. If we were all a little more like Angels, Earth would be a little more like heaven. An Angel ... carries the clear message of God above the hustle & bustle of the world! "Ask an Angel what to do in a crisis, and they shall simply reply to you with: Enlighten up!" True spirit is loving life and not caring who knows or what they have to say about it. Don't force yourself to believe in Angels. Let go of the disbelief and find them everywhere. Things may be tough right now , but just remember- every flower that ever bloomed had to go through a whole lot of dirt to get there! Forgetfulness is a virtue only when you can remember the right things to forget. We can't all be stars, but we can all twinkle. Faith is not knowing what the future holds, but knowing who holds the future. Remember to be thankful for the Angels in your life and do your best to be one in someone else's. ~j~ Expect trouble as an inevitable part of life and repeat to yourself, the most comforting words of all; This, too, shall pass. Angels Help to smooth the wrinkles from our lives. There is no better exercise For strengthening the heart ... Than by reaching down And lifting up another!" The greater the obstacle, the more the glory in overcoming it. Heroes are the people who do what has to be done, when it needs to be done, regardless of the consequences. Each time you pick a daffodil or gather violets on some hill. Or touch a leaf or see a tree, it's all God whispering, "This is Me". Every growing, living thing that you can touch or see at spring, is but a message from above to say that God Is Life and love. There is little difference in people, but that little difference makes a big difference. The little difference is attitude. The big difference is whether it is positive or negative. Troubles come to pass; they do not come to stay. Worrying works! 90% of the things I worry about never happen. Out of all the treasures in the world there is nothing more precious than giving someone a piece of your heart. Even on the most difficult days there is hope. Easter brings to mind thoughts of spring flowers and buds on trees, colored eggs and bunnies hopping, baskets and bonnets, but what Easter really brings us is hope. Hope in a new beginning, and the promise of eternal life. " For memory has painted this perfect day With colors that never fade, And we find at the end of a perfect day The soul of a friend we've made." "A Joyful heart is good medicine" It heals the body when its down and lifts the spirit from within. Women are never stronger than when they arm themselves with their weaknesses. There is no oil without squeezing the olives, No wine without pressing the grapes, No fragrance without crushing the flowers, And no real joy without sorrow. Solutions aren't always easy. Decisions are sometimes tough. When it's all up to you, do the best you can do, for your best, is always enough. When you think your faith has failed you, all your hopes and dreams are gone, listen for the Angel voice that whispers, "Just hold on". "You can't see the beauty of a soul until you see the Son shine through." Thanks to : Becky/Switapi Angels remind us that the gift of life must be savored. When you walk behind your fears, in shadows dark and gray, you miss the joy and wonderment that permeate the day. A heart that feels another’s pain is often blessed with the power to heal it. Our strength often increases in proportion to the obstacles imposed upon it. Outward looks do not reveal the presence from within. Spirit is not reflected in flawed or flawless skin. The challenges we face today, Prepare us for tomorrow. For faith takes our fears away And peace replaces sorrow. Seasons change, friends move away, and life goes on from day to day. Flowers fade and streams go dry and many times we wonder why. Yet we can always be assured because God tells us in His Word, that unlike changes in the weather, love goes on and lasts forever! May every moment of glory tell a kind and gentle story. May every deed you do |
