Forget Yourself

when you are healed in your heart,
you are healed in your mind,
when u choose to follow god, he shows you to leave yourself behind,
when you concentrate on loving others, you see, you forget your every need,
for while your busy doing the work of your father, your heart cannot be shaken by greed,
if you trust that he will protect you, and guide you in your decisions,
he will place a sense of security in your life, and give you his provision,
forget yourself for a moment, and let the awesome master show you,
he will never leave your side as you love him each day, for he has something better for you.

You know I make the least amount of money I have made in my life now and my quality of life is better than it's ever been - The Lord provides what I need and I just try to help others all I can - Its amazing to me that things are as they are in my life - The Lord has blessed me more than I could ever say - God Bless
