Amen Amen

Beautiful sunset last night

What a beautiful evening. At least here on our spot in this earth. Not so beautiful in the east coast.

Lord we pray safety for those going through this historical storm.

We pray there will be many who turn to you. This may be turned for your glory. Because we know and proclaim. That God is the blessed controller of all things.

Good can come out of anything.

Show us how we can help.
It is not always money. We know prayer is a powerful thing.

Guide the rescue workers.

In your Holy name we pray.

God doesn't give you the people you want, he gives you the people you need. To help you, to hurt you, to leave you, to love you, and to make you into the person you were meant to be." 

This is the Day....... For One

Have never felt so good in my entire life as I feel now.  God is so good.  When we went to Green Bay for LJs surgery LJ wanted to go to a Harbor Freight. He is thinking of doing some solar panels. There just happened to be a very big goodwill right next store.  We smiled at each other. He went one way and I went the other. I love Goodwill. Love the rush of the find. Guess it carry's over from my picking days in our Antique store.  Walked in turned right and went right to the book section....there was a book "Living Gluten Free for Dummies."  I almost yelled out with joy. A blessing for 3.99 which would have been 19.99 in the book store.  It is so fun and such a rush to see God taking care of us in such a way. It is a wonderful book.  Thank You.... Thank you Lord for leading me here.  And as I look back this change in my life came from one women.....a women at church. We were standing in line waiting for refreshments. She told me she was Gluten free and why..... I did not even know her. A few sentences she said to me and it changed my life for ever. The power of words....wow... So very thankful for what she said. I had never even heard of gluten free before then. What a blessing she was and is. How this stranger spoke to me and said a few words changed my physical life forever. God gives each of us a story and they are not the same stories but they end up hopefully all on the same page. The heavenly page of Glory. Praise God Have a blessed day....a wonderful Sabbath. God is good all the time . All the time God is good.

Woke up singing

That God for Music.............

RE: Love letter to you....Lord

Thankful......Praise and worship.... Thankful for good news....(cancer gone) ..thankful for safe trips. (Green Bay) Thankful for grand daughter turning 16 today. (R) Thankful for great friends.... And family.... Praise for Mr.  Sun.....how I love Mr. Sun Have you ever met anyone who does not love the sun.???   We do not think we have.  There is something about the sun and water.  People flock to it........   Let there be light..  So thankful for light... Raysha is 16 today..  What an age she looks like 19 the girls sure look like women fast now days.  She has had some rough years Lord.  We need to and do  intercede for her.  Such a kind wonderful spirit.   We are so thankful that she blesses our life.  We keep her in prayer all the grands   all our family...that they might learn to know you and depend on you.  That you are the Father ...  You are always there.  I pray that this might reach one....  To think that You would have came and died for Just One.  Such love such grace.  Thankful for the little surprises.  The gifts you bestow on us. For walking in a store and seeing a book on Gluten Free living.  So helpful.  It truly is a book for Dummies.  Thankful for the mind.  Always learning no matter what age we are. Being Gluten Free for three months now.  It has been an interesting journey.  Not a real easy one. Help me Lord help me.  Learn and also teach those also going through this walk.    Praise to you. In Your precious name Gluten free three months now.  Most helpful advice so far people have given me: Drink sparkling water when there is an oops....granted to me it was an acquired taste.  It did not come right away.  But now it is enjoyed so far kept me away from coke.  Which may be an addiction of mine. Also:  Research the Internet.  What did we do before it???  It is like having the biggest library in the world at your finger tips.  Learn and focus on what you can eat...Not what you can not eat.  This has been most helpful And have a plan:  What to say when asked to someone's house and not sound rude or kind.  What you can order in a restaurant... How to eat frugal....this is my next challenge as everything gluten free seems so much more money.  But Fresh fruits and Vegetable and plain meat is always the best option for me.  We discovered Woodmen's grocery store in Green Bay on our medical journey.  What an awesome place and it is employee owned.  It would be such a blessing for so many to have something like that in the UP.    God is good all the time......       All the time God is good..

Travels abound Prayer

Hello Lord

I am so glad there is not a busy signal when we call up to HIM. Sometimes I feel I am a bother. But He tells me I am worth it. He would have died for just one. Is that not the greatest news ever????

Teaching by Joyce.....

My Joyce notes...................The fruit of the spirit's main trust is LOVE
Joy Gladness Peace, Temper, Kindness, Faithfulness,  Gentleness, Self control.....

Love is just not a word.  It is the way we treat people.  Learn to be a good fruit Inspector ....You will know them by there fruit.  Pay attention to the fruit in our life?

Self Control:  You can control yourself if you really want to ??

Lean to control yourself.  Love God so much you do not even know how to tell Him..   Do it out of Love,  Self control is your friend.  Not your enemy.....

Any area you are weak in prayer and ask for help ahead of time.  Pray and be with God every morning.  Start your day right.
God I need....Develop a habit spending time with Jesus.  God please help me...  You have not because you ask not.

Say the right stuff...  I am a person of self control.  Do not spend money you do not have.  I keep a clean house.  Pray God help me.  Help me God help me.

Not a very disciplined person?   Do not think it or talk it.  Stop agreeing with the devil ... I have self control.  I operated in self control.  God helps me control myself.  Prayer, Praise and thank you Lord.  Bare fruit.  God gives self control.

The love of Christ controls us... How do you handle money?
Get out of debt...stay out of debt.

What we speak into others, this is what they become.

We are personal representives: do it even when you  Dont feel like it..do it becasue you want to represent Him well...

Get out of your house and go be a blessing to someone...

My Place

   I am a grandma now to 19 grand kids.....

 and soon to be 20.  Where oh where did the time go????



  What a joy and blessing they are.   How they melt my heart.......



 It seems God is telling me at this older age my primary focus is to hold each and everyone of them up in prayer....... always.  everyday...................................... every second. 

 What a complicated world we live in. 

 How hard it is in the thinking of  many now days to strive to give our children what we think they need.
A word................. a word that builds..... and builds.  

A wise man told us sometimes it is like collecting pennys.....at first one penny (word)  and daily the pennys (words) build up.  Soon you have dollars and health.   He was not talking about words that build up....but thinking about it...it works......One word at a time... 
Building up each and every day an encouraging word in an world that can be so discouraging .


A world that can say such unkind things.  A world that tends not to think so often of what God says.  

  

  But as our wise Grace loving....... humble pastor has told us more than once the only things we can take to heaven with us ..................IS OUR CHILDREN.....

Being a mom a grandmother, sister, aunt cousin is such a wonderful calling.  We take these little ones and the ones that are not so little any more and hand them daily over to our Lord.  We give them and hope they all in turn give them selfs over to His mercey and glory.  His grace.  His Love His Peace.  In the end that is all that matters.   

The fruits of the spirit.   Love, Joy, long-suffering, Peace, self control, gentleness, Patience, Faithfulness  Kindness.......................................

This blog is not mine.   It is not for me to say fancy words.   It is words to Him who makes all things new.

I may not spell correctly, I may not have the best English in the world.  But it is all about Him...

He who gives all know all and blesses us even in our sorrow...............

God is good.........all the time


All the time God is good............................
