“Jesus said to them, ‘I am the bread of life. Whoever comes to me will never be hungry, and whoever believes in me will never be thirsty’.”
John 6:35

This poetry was written by a teenage girl, terminally ill with cancer in a New York Hospital. This was sent in by her medical doctor in 2001. Since then it has had quite an impact going around the world several times on the Internet –

“SLOW DANCE”

Have you ever watched kids
On a merry-go-round?
Or listened to the rain
Slapping on the ground?
Ever followed a butterfly’s erratic flight?
Or gazed at the sun into the fading night?

You better slow down.
Don’t dance so fast.
Time is short.
The music won’t last.

Do you run through each day
On the fly?
When you ask, “How are you?”
Do you hear the reply?

When the day is done
Do you lie in your bed
With the next hundred chores
Running through your head?

You’d better slow down
Don’t dance so fast.
Time is short.
The music won’t last.

Ever told your child,
We’ll do it tomorrow?
And in your haste,
Not see his sorrow?

Ever lost touch,
Let a good friendship die
Cause you never had time
To call and say, “Hi”

You’d better slow down.
Don’t dance so fast.
Time is short.
The music won’t last.

When you run so fast to get somewhere
You miss half the fun of getting there.
When you worry and hurry through your day,
It is like an unopened gift …
Thrown away.

Life is not a race.
Do take it slower
Hear the music
Before the song is over.

POSITIVE DAILY PRAYER:

Dear God, as a child I used to pray for things to move faster.
I used to pray for everything to be realized sooner.
Now, in the wisdom of my years, I am aware that I have missed a great deal of the ordinary blessings of life.
Now, I pray for things to slow down so that I may fully experience my life.
Slow my life down dear God so that I may enjoy every precious moment.

Thank You God!

POSITIVE DAILY AFFIRMATION:

I have the strength to slow down.
I no longer rush through my days. I take time this year to give myself the ultimate gift of a slower more enjoyable lifestyle.
I miss nothing.
I have time to think, to breathe, and to enjoy.

POSITIVE DAILY QUOTE:

Before you speak to me about your religion, first show it to me in how you treat other people; before you tell me how much you love your God, show me how much you love all His children; before you preach to me of your passion for your faith, teach me about it through your compassion for your neighbors. In the end, I’m not as interested in what you have to tell or sell as in how you choose to live and give.
Cory Booker
