WHAT REALLY MATTERS......Author Unknown
11/27/99

My parents asked if I'm gay, I said does it matter, They said not really, I told them yes I'm gay, They said get out of our lives, I guess it mattered! My boss said are you gay, I said does it matter, My boss said not really, I told my boss, yes I'm gay, My boss said you're fired queer, I guess it mattered! My friend asked if I'm gay, I said does it matter, My friend said no not really, I told my friend yes I'm gay, My friend said don't call me friend, I guess it mattered! My lover said do you love me, I said does it matter, My lover said yes, I told my lover yes I love you, My lover said hold me in your arms, For the first time something in my life matters. God asked, Do you love yourself, I said does it matter, God said yes, I said how can I love myself if I am Gay? God said, because that is the way I made you, nothing will ever matter again.

HEAVEN'S GROCERY STORE...Author Unknown

I was walking down life's highway a long time ago, And I saw a sign that read, "Heaven's Grocery Store". As I got a little closer, the door came open wide, And when I came to myself, I was standing inside. I saw a host of angels, they were standing everywhere, One handed me a basket and said, "My child shop with care". Everything a christian needed was in that grocery store. And all you couldn't carry you could come back the next day for more. First, I got some Patience; Love was in the same row. Further down was Understanding, you need that everywhere you go. I got a box or two of Wisdom, a bag or two of Faith. I just couldn't miss the Holy Ghost, for He was all over the place. I stopped to get some Strength and Courage to help me run this race, By then my basket was getting full, but I remembered I needed Grace. I didn't forget Salvation, for salvation that was free. So I tried to get enough of that to save both you and me. Then I started up to the counter to pay for my grocery bill, For I thought I had everything to do my Master's will. As I went up the aisle, I saw Prayer and I just had to put that in. For I knew when I stepped outside, I would run right into sin. Peace and Joy were plentiful, they were on the last shelf. Song and Praises were hanging near, so I just helped myself. Then I said to the angel, "Now how much do I owe?" He smiled and said, "Just take them everywhere you go". Again I smiled at him and said, "How much do I really owe?" He smiled again and said, "My child Jesus paid your bill a long time ago".
