Feelings.... it's a good thing :)

Hi everyone! I Apoligize that I havn't been on that much, internet problems with my aircard, hope to have that fixed this Saturday!

TRUE STORY

A friend of mine had some money stoled from here that she made by running a booth at the fair... After hearing this I decided to pay here a visit and give her some support. No sooner than saying hi, she broke down an cried her eyes out. We talked and after a visit I decided to go to the horse track... ha ha I roamed around awhile and saw this couple sitting down with a racing form... so I walked up to them and asked them if they had any good tips on the race... The lady said that I should pick a horse with a name I liked and I had as good as chance as any... peaking at the guys picked I noticed this gentleman had a horse name FEELINGS circled...

After about 5 minutes I said a little prayer to my GOD and made him a deal, I would put a wager on this horse and if it won I would give my friend the money to help here re-coop some of her losses. So I did... and there off and feelings wasn't looking so good, as a matter of fact he was in the middle of the pack coming around the last corner and I all but wrote him off when I heard the announcer say something about FEELINS making a move.... Yes he came in first place and I was happy as a clam... Than I remembered the deal... I know your all laughing now. Thats right I ran to my friends booth at the fair and gave her the ticket, I wanted to tell her the story and let her cash it in... It was the most fun I ever had at the races an not being a winner of money, I had the greatest feeling ever.... all thanks to my GOD and FEELINGS

Hope you all enjoy the story, all true! :)

I've said similar prayers and some times they were answered as per my request

and some times they were not.

Jas 1:2 Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds,
Jas 1:3 because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance.
Jas 1:4 Perseverance must finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything.
Jas 1:5 If any of you lacks wisdom, he should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to him.
Jas 1:6 But when he asks, he must believe and not doubt, because he who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind.
Jas 1:7 That man should not think he will receive anything from the Lord;
Jas 1:8 he is a double-minded man, unstable in all he does.
Jas 1:9 The brother in humble circumstances ought to take pride in his high position.
Jas 1:10 But the one who is rich should take pride in his low position, because he will pass away like a wild flower.
Jas 1:11 For the sun rises with scorching heat and withers the plant; its blossom falls and its beauty is destroyed. In the same way, the rich man will fade away even while he goes about his business.
Jas 1:12 Blessed is the man who perseveres under trial, because when he has stood the test, he will receive the crown of life that God has promised to those who love him.(NIV)
