Jade Goody.......

I cannot truly believe how vile and disgustingly disrespectful some people can be towards a dying woman.

This 27 year old woman, with two beautiful sons will almost certainly not be around this time next month. Nor spend mothers day with her children. Yet some people think its acceptable to make jokes and comment about her so negatively and horridly.

Cancer is one of the worst ways to spend your final days. Knowing something is eating you alive and you cant stop it. Knowing that something inside will steal your life away has to be the worst feeling in the world. And to be truthful, I think Jade has coped with it with dignity and self-respect. Granted I don't totally agree with how public her illness has been - but she has raised so much awareness and probably saved a good few many lives.

Who's place is it to judge anyone on how they want to die? Who should tell somebody how they should spend their final days on earth? Not mine for certain.

Now I will step down from my soapbox and say I wish Jade and her family all the love in the world. They are all so firmly rooted in my prayers.

Lord You're Holy.......

I have been reflecting in many things this week and a real song of meditation and amazing worship for me has been Karen Wheaton "Lord You're Holy" . I was introduced to it at Kingdom Faith by Jane Urquhart at an amazing women's conference I attended there. The Lyrics are just awesome which is why I wanted to share them with you. Lord You’re holy, Lord You’re holy and we lift You up and magnify Your name I look around and I see, All the works Your hands have made, The awesomeness of You, And how Your love will never fade, Mere words cannot express what I feel inside, I can’t describe Your glory divine, But as a token of my love, This is what I’ll do, I lift my hands and cry, Lord You’re holy, Lord You’re holy and we lift You up and magnify Your name There’s not enough words that I can say, To tell You how much, I appreciate, all the wonderful things, You’ve given me, Your love and kindness, Your tender mercies, It’s my desire, to praise You and to tell You how much,...

Channel Four.......

This evening I watched a programme called 'The Virgin Daughters" on channel four.  It was all about purity and sex before marriage. I have to be truthful it totally freaked me.   I really believe that marriage is sacred and an act that shouldn't be taken into lightly, I also whole- heartedly  believe that you should save yourself for marriage. Saving yourself however I don't believe means you cant hold hands or kiss.  God isn't going to be upset with you because you kissed a boy at the age of 15, you aren't going to be unclean for holding someone of the opposites sex hand.  It makes me think what impression are we giving to younger non-Christians, 'if you become a Christian you cant hold you boyfriend/girlfriends hand until you're married'; that is insane and frankly I don't think 98% of young people will buy into. Also no offense to my Dad, however I don't want him to pick my future husband.  If my previous boyfriends asked my Dads permissi...
