Promises

It’s a beautiful spring day and full of promise.
Just as everyday is, some just seem more than others with the sunshine.
The Lord gives us many promises.
Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and shew thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not. (Jeremiah 33:3);

All things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive. (Matthew 21:22);

If ye shall ask anything in my name, I will do it. (John 14:14).

These are a few of my favorites.
I have clung to these close this week.
Some days it’s hard to put complete trust in Him.
Now I am holding onto

(Isaiah 41:10) Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, Yes I will help you, I will up hold you with My righteous right hand.

Friday afternoon I had another miscarriage.
It seems I’ve been so worried about everyone else, I didn’t take care of myself.
I didn’t realize it.
Right now I want to blog, but not about this.
It’s all that is on my mind and in my heart.
So I need a break from the Rambling.
It might be 2 days, 2wks, or 2 months.
I just don’t know.

Today is better, but not great.
Yesterday I was mad at the world and most things in it.
Life is still full of promises for me as long as there is breath in my body.
Today, tomorrow and the days to come, I cling to His promises to me.

I want my blog to be encouraging and fun!
Not sad and gloomy, my feeling sorry for myself.
Right now I can’t deliver that.

I plan to continue to follow you all and get my strength from your funnies!
Thank you for sharing your lives daily with me!!
You’re Great!!!

I Haven't Been Kidnapped.

Kerry is still in the hospital, and things are not coming along as they had hoped.
To stay updated and to encourage her, please go here.

Thank You!

I Agree With Maxine

I love Maxine!



Let me get this straight......the fools in Washington passed a health care plan written by a committee
whose chairman says he doesn't understand it,
passed by a Congress that hasn't read it but exempts themselves from it,
to be signed by a president that also is exempt from it
And hasn't read it
And who is addicted to smokes,
with funding administered by a treasury chief
who didn't pay his taxes,
all to be overseen by a surgeon general who is obese,
and financed by a country that's broke.


What could possibly go wrong?

Hello Spring!

Easter Lillies & Love

Once there was a boy who loved a girl.

The boy had tried for years to show her his love.

He lavished her with diamonds & gold.

She would smile, and softly tell him "no"

He didn't realize that it was the simple things of life

that showed the greatest depths of love

she was trying to show him.

One spring day while out for a drive on the ridge & through the creek

they came upon a hillside full of Easter Lillies (aka daffodils)

He remembered her saying she loved Easter Lillies & Iris.

He threw the truck in park, jumped out like his britches were on fire.

She couldn't figure out what he was doing until he popped in the passenger window.

He started filling her lap, and the truck cab with Easter Lillies.

As he saw her laughing, and light up like a Christmas tree,

he realized for the first time what she meant about love being the simplicity of things,

instead of money or material objects.

Many moons have passed over since that day, 

but every time I see an Easter Lillie

( I guess I refer to them as that because they are always in full bloom here at Easter)

I think of that beautiful Spring day on the ridge

The love I felt, and the joy from seeing the understanding in his eyes

of how easy it is to love and show it.

I can't help but smile in the same way when I see them anywhere.

I close my eyes and I am back there again.

In that truck with Easter Lillies everywhere,

placed all through my house, on my desk, and on my car that Spring.
