On back of a business card!
(My Quest for the Truth of Life, by Kerminator!)

On back of a business card! by kerminator .....

Sometimes we get direction or messages in different forms... This one was on the back of a business card; true to life!

  After on of my sons returned from helping some of the Tornado Victims down Macon, GA;   he has since corresponded with some of the workers...

  These people had came from all over the country, some from Wisconsin, California, Florida and many other places at their own expense...  HUH!!  That is what we call helping people...
 
  This type of service builds a special camaraderie    It during these times; when people share and live in close quarters for some period of time that they come to form this bond...   This is what happens with people in families, churches, schools, at work projects and in military units...  These are bonds that will last into eternity!!

  Well one of these persons sent my son a note which included a business card with a special poem on back, in prayer form...  This is something which we all should share:


 
I ask for strength that I might achieve;
 I was made weak that I might learn humbly to obey.

 I ask for health that I might do great things;
 I was given an infirmity that I might do better things.

 I ask for riches that I might be happy;
 I was given poverty that I might be wise.

 I ask for power so that I might have the praise of men;
 I was given weakness that I might feel the need for GOD.

 I ask for things that I might enjoy life;
 I was given life that I might enjoy things.

 I received nothing I had ask for;
 But everything that I had ever hoped for.

 Almost despite myself,  my unspoken prayers were answered;
 I am among all men, most richly blessed!
 
 - Poem of an Unknown Confederate Soldier 1865   

  This  is also a True-ism  July 2008 

 
This is what comes from someone when they realize their real worth in this life...  HUH!!   I can identify with this poem...
