Our God is an Awesome God!  If you look at that video and hear the words to that song it will give you chills about how powerful and great God is to give us such beauty around us!  He cares about us and wants to have a relationship with us!  Not a organized religion but a relationship!  He created this world...the whole world and universe and He wants to have a relationship with each and everyone of us!  I just think this is so amazing! 

God is watching out for each and every one of us!  If God was in more people's lives today the world would be a better place...as the great Ray Stevens said and sang,

"EVERYTHING IS BEAUTIFUL, IN ITS OWN WAY!"

Have You Forgotten? By: Darryl Worley

I hear people saying we don't need this war
But, I say there's some things worth fighting for
What about our freedom and this piece of ground
We didn't get to keep 'em by backing down
They say we don't realize the mess we're getting in
Before you start your preaching let me ask you this my friend

Have you forgotten how it felt that day?
To see your homeland under fire
And her people blown away
Have you forgotten when those towers fell?
We had neighbors still inside going thru a living hell
And you say we shouldn't worry 'bout bin Laden
Have you forgotten?

They took all the footage off my T.V.
Said it's too disturbing for you and me
It'll just breed anger that's what the experts say
If it was up to me I'd show it everyday
Some say this country's just out looking for a fight
Well, after 9/11 man I'd have to say that's right

Have you forgotten how it felt that day?
To see your homeland under fire
And her people blown away
Have you forgotten when those towers fell?
We had neighbors still inside going thru a living hell
And we vowed to get the one’s behind bin Laden
Have you forgotten?

I've been there with the soldiers
Who've gone away to war
And you can bet that they remember
Just what they're fighting for

Have you forgotten all the people killed?
Yeah, some went down like heroes in that Pennsylvania field
Have you forgotten about our Pentagon?
All the loved ones that we lost and those left to carry on
Don't you tell me not to worry about bin Laden
Have you forgotten?

Have you forgotten?
Have you forgotten?

This is the real reason why we should remember and to thank the troops that are fighting for the greatest country in the world, The United States Of America!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

*Remember Our Troops! Happy Memorial Day!*

Yesterday, Mike Easley said that we should let Illegal Immigrants go to NC community colleges for free!  What are we going to next, give them free gas!?  This really makes me mad, I am a 22 year old college student trying to pay out of pocket for all my school and books and I'm just about broke and I will have to end up paying for illegals to go to college FREE, I don't like it one bit!. 

I can't even get any help whatsoever!  I know some of you whether parents or students are im my same shoes.  Mike Easley, you need to stop and look around!  ANOTHER THING!  If we do give them free tution and free books and they go to college we are going to have the same problem with the language issue that we are in Elementary/middle/high school now!  What if the illegals (going to school FREE of charge) drop out of school?  What are you going to say about that Mike?  You let illegals go to school, screwing the students that try and want to make a living for themselves like me! 

I am going to be paying $150 for ONE book for this summer class I will be taking, 

Do something about the Book prices Mike to help the NC/U.S. citizens!  Mike you've already endorsed Hillary, you need to GO!

This is so true!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Me and God by: Josh Turner and Ralph Stanley

There ain't nothing that can't be done
By me and God
Ain't nobody gonna come in between me and God
One day we'll live together
Where the angels trod
Me and God

Early in the morning talking it over
Me and God
Late at night talking it over
Me and God
You could say we're like two peas in a pod
Me and God

He's my Father
He's my friend
The beginning
And the end
He rules the world
With a staff and rod
We're a team
Me and God

I am weak and he is strong
Me and God
He forgives me when I'm wrong
Me and God
He's the one I lean on
When life gets hard
Me and God

He's my Father
He's my friend
The beginning
And the end
He rules the world
With a staff and rod
We're a team
Me and God

He rules the world
With a staff and rod
We're a team
Me and God

We're a team
Me and God

This question goes out to anyone who knows how to do the ab crunch.

I am a beginner at Ab exercises and I have recently starting doing the basic ab crunch.  I've got the overall technique down pat.   It is just I can't get my shoulder blades to come off the ground.  Another thing is most of the time I end up doing like a sit up instead of a crunch  Is this normal for beginners like me?  Any advice?

Also if you would happen to have any other beginner ab exercises please let me know.  Thanks!

"If Jesus Walked The World Today" by: Alan Jackson

 

If Jesus walked the world today, He'd probably be a Hillbilly
Common man of men and the King of many
He'd lay his hands on his brother man, save us all from the sinnin
If Jesus walked the world today, He'd probably be a Hillbilly

If He was here today I bet He'd drive a Chevrolet
Workin at the plant drawin workers pay
He'd preach in some little country church outside of the city
If Jesus walked the world today, He'd probably be a Hillbilly

If Jesus walked the world today, He'd probably be a Hillbilly
Common man of men and the King of many
He'd lay his hands on his brother man, save us all from the sinnin
If Jesus walked the world today, He'd probably be a Hillbilly

His long hair and sandled feet would be in style
Surround himself with the good old boys to tell His tale
He'd have a mighty cross tattoo on his hands by the nail holes that killed Him
[If Jesus Walked The World Today lyrics on http://www.metrolyrics.com]

If Jesus walked the world today, He'd probably be a Hillbilly

If Jesus walked the world today, He'd probably be a Hillbilly
Common man of men and the King of many
He'd lay his hands on his brother man, save us all from the sinnin
If Jesus walked the world today, He'd probably be a Hillbilly

Some folks would say it wasn't really Him
You know they'd probably send Him off to some kind of lonely bin

They wouldn't hang Him on the cross but they'd find some way to condem Him
If Jesus walked the world today, He'd probably be a Hillbilly

If Jesus walked the world today, He'd probably be a Hillbilly
Common man of men and the King of many
He'd lay his hands on his brother man, save us all from the sinnin
If Jesus walked the world today, He'd probably be a Hillbilly
He'd be a Hillbilly, yeah, He'd be a Hillbilly
Id bet Jesus be a Hillbilly, Lord, you know He'd be a Hillbilly

If yall have been watching The Celebrity Apprentice it's down to Trace Adkins and Piers Morgan and Trace is kicking some British Badonkadonk!!!!!!  It's going to get interesting that's for sure!

This should wake us up.

One day, a man went to visit a church, He got there early, parked his car
and got out. Another car pulled up near the driver got out and said, ' I always park there! You took my place!'
The visitor went inside for Sunday School, found an empty seat and sat down. A young lady from the church approached him and stated, 'That's my seat! You took my place!' The visitor was somewhat distressed by this rude welcome, but said nothing.


After Sunday School, the visitor went into the sanctuary and sat down. Another member walked up to him and said, ' That's where I always sit! You took my place!' The visitor was even more troubled by this treatment, but still He said nothing. Later as the congregation was
praying for Christ to dwell among them, the visitor stood up, and his appearance began to change.
Horrible scars became visible on his hands and on his sandaled feet.
Someone from the congregation noticed him and called out, 'What happened to you?'

The visitor replied, as his hat became a crown of thorns, and a tear fell from his eye, 'I took your place.'

Maybe, just maybe, we can get the world to start thinking of who took our place.

Tougher Than Nails By: Joe Diffie

Little boy walks in with a bloody nose,
Got beat up on his way home from school, aga-in,
His dad caught him running out the back,
Tears in his eyes and a baseball bat, oo revenge,

Said son I won't stop ya, but before you go,
Let me tell you a little story bout the toughest man I know,

You hit him and he just turns the other cheek,
Don't think for a minute he was weak,
Cause in the end he showed them,
He was any-thing but frail,
They hammered him to a cross,
But he was tougher than nails,


Well he dropped that bat like it weighed a ton,
Father put his arms around his son and said, just let it go--oo,
Believe me I've been in your shoes,
Had to ask myself what would Jesus do, here's what I know,

Whenever I'm in doubt, I look up what he said,
It's all there in the good book, in black and whitnd red,

Hit him and he just turns the other cheek,
Don't think for a minute he was weak,
Cause in the end he showed them,
He was any-thing but frail,
They hammered him to a cross,
But he was tougher than nails,
Yea in the end he showed them,
He was any-thing but frail,
They hammered him to a cross,
But he was tougher than nails,
Tougher than nails, oh, oh, oh,
