BELIEVE IT OR NOT!

Our daughter Alex had to be in Wichita this morning to start her therapy for the thyroid cancer. With much anticipation she arrived on time. The plane carrying her medication did not. Apparently it hit a goose and the windshield was broken and the plane was grounded. Her medication will arrive sometime later today.
I had sent her a text message this morning saying that I had been praying for peace in the turmoil.Little do we know when we pray that God is going to deliver the circumstance required to test out the prayer!
None the less, she is going to start therapy today at some point in time. Pray for a full recovery and yes for patience and peace in the storm.

RELATIONSHIPS

God has really been working overtime on me! It seems that everywhere I turn , there is a relationship that I need to work on. I find myself being double minded, I say one thing but think another. This is not in His plan for loving one another. I am discovering that I may not being walking the walk like I should.
This morning in church, Pastor was talking about the heroes in our world that have given their lives for freedom. But the greatest story of heroism is the story of Jesus.He gave us His death in order for us to have life. Amen!
Now if I am to live my life to please Him, then I must change my attitude and watch my thoughts and actions. I want my Hero to be praised and honored by my faith walk. I resolve to watch my words and stop my thoughts in their tracks. I will speak words of faith over those that I have spoken ill of. Lord , help me to live my life according to your will. Give me the strength and wisdom to love others as I would have them love me.

This is a picture of Aidan at his first camp out with the Cub Scouts. He and Dad had a great time and they made many new friends. I love you Mr. P!

Tonight my two grandchildren will be spending the night with me. So for entertainment, we will be fixing supper together. Since they are only 3 and almost 2 the menu will be simple. I have little smokies and biscuits for them to wrap and then we will make mac and cheese. All this to be eaten on the front porch with the flies and mosquitoes.

I am already anticipating the fighting over who stands where and does the most! But it will be fun and very lively! We may even have a blanket party on the living room floor and watch another round of The Fox and The Hound!

So to all who read this , have a wonderful weekend. Share it with someone you love! Me , I will be wrapped in laughter and love for the evening. Then I hope to see my other two little guys before the weekend ends.

SOMEWHERE OVER THE RAINBOW

This is a rainbow that my grandson Aidan made in school! I look at this and my heart soars because I know that my little A , has Jesus in his heart. I am collecting some of his art pictures and will be making a book on Shutterfly. If you haven't visited Shutterfly, they have fun ideas to create. Just wanted to share my rainbow! I hope that it brightens your day , like it does mine. There's no place like home, there's no place like home!

RUBBER DUCKIE

Last night I traveled to Salina to hear three amazing songs , RUBBER DUCKIE, THE SHOEMAKER,and I 'VE GOT PEACE LIKE A RIVER. These were the three songs that my 6 year old grandson, Aidan,sang at the school musical! We drove 75 miles to hear these precious babies belt out their very best! I loved it! And I will spend my last dime to travel to a concert that any of our little ones are involved in.
I have been teaching the kids to sign "I love you" and I was blessed with a quick little flick of the hand during the concert! My dream is to have a stocky football player give a signal from the field someday as he runs for a touch down and Nana is screaming like a fool from the stands! Or better yet, a cute big mug looking straight into the camera, saying I love you Nana! Yea !

Coming Home

In Jeremiah 31:16-17 it says "But, I the Lord ,say to dry your tears. Someday your children will come home from the enemy's land. Then all you have done for them will be greatly rewarded. So don't lose hope . I, the Lord, have spoken."

When I read this passage , I was comforted by the words. I know that I can take these words and plant them in my heart and live for the promise to be fufilled. I know that Jesus will someday return all of my children to me. I know that someday He will hear their praises ! Thank you Lord Jesus for your comfort and peace.
