| Blessed are the Pure in Heart |
| Blessed are the pure in heart So often we are told Of saints whose names and daily deeds Inscribed in books of gold Are certain to be seeing God In well-rewarding joy- But when I see the pure in heart I see a little boy. He shins up trees and barks his knees Has lizards in a box He loves to read of dinosaurs Collects bright-colored rocks His grubby hands are gentle On the coats of dogs and birds And he has a quiet wisdom in naivete of words I listen to his little prayers At night with quiet joy- And when I hear the pure in heart I hear a little boy. He hasn't reached the age as yet To question and to doubt He gravely takes his mother's words And that's what life's about Each day is gold, a shining thing Without a wrong alloy- And when I hold the pure in heart I hold a little boy. By Gwen Belson Taylor from a 5th Portion of Chicken Soup for the Soul Copyright 1998 Jack Canfield and Mark Victor Hansen |
| Give God what is right, NOT what is left. |
| Let me see good, dear Lord, in everyone I meet, those I love and cherish, and the stranger on the street. Help me love when loving's not the easiest thing to do, remembering that's the kind of love that comes to me from You! |

| Ask for Appreciation Everyone needs recognition for his accomplishments, but few people make the need known quite as clearly as the little boy who said to his father: "Let's play darts. I'll throw and you say 'Wonderful!'" By Bits and Pieces from Condensed Chicken Soup for the Soul copyright 1996 by Jack Canfield, Mark Victor Hansen and Patty Hansen |
