New CPR method

I know that today is Thankful Thursday, but this information was passed on to me from my sweet friend, Diane, in Texas and I think it is of paramount importance to pass it on to you. Someone may be very thankful to you one day if you need to use it.

Habakkuk 3:18 "Yet I will rejoice in the Lord, I will joy in the God of my salvation"

Word for Wednesday

Have you ever been in bondage over something? Most of us would say "no" right off the bat and not give it another thought, however, I would say that each and every one of us has been in bondage to one type of sin or another in our life. The Bible clearly states that "All have sinned and come short of the glory of God" Romans 3:23; but is there a sin that grabs at you and you look around and see your brothers and sisters and think they don't seem to struggle and wonder why that is?

My sisters, I want to tell you, we each struggle with something. All of us. I once had a friend tell me something I will never forget. She said some people's sin is apparent and everyone can see it while other's sin is hidden and people can't see it but it is there just the same. And it's a struggle for both people. The person whose sin is "out there" for people to see feels unwelcomed or unworthy to be at church and scared to say they have stumbled again, while the person's sin whose is hidden is scared to death of being caught for appearance sake.

My scripture verse today is John 8:32 "And the truth shall set you free". Freedom. Being washed clean is the most wonderful feeling. Burdens lifted...glorious! And when the King says you are forgiven...you are forgiven indeed. How do you get there 1 John 1:9 "If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and cleanse us from all unrighteousness".

I really was so happy about the women's blog conference and I believe the Lord will bring us all together again soon. And each time I think of it, I always think of this song. I don't know why but it is a repetitive theme in my brain. So I'm going to play it today even though it's supposed to be scripture only today. Bear with me. I think this is the most I've written in quite some time.








God bless you.........ready to go down to the river and pray?? Let's go!!!

Happy Groundhog's Day

So today is Groundhog's Day. And today is my 49th birthday. My family is always more excited about my birthday than I am. I've tried to understand why growing older bothers me so but I've only ever come up with a couple of reasons...one, it bothered my father tremendously and maybe it's hereditary! lol And two, I'm older than my husband and I hate that. How's that for brutal honestly? lol But I love the song below...it's Nichole Nordeman's "I AM" and it's truly one of my favorite songs of all time so for my birthday I'm playing it to remind myself that He has always been there for me and always will be and age is just a number....yep, that's what I'm telling myself.




God bless you today! Big hugs from me to you!

Happy Anniversary, my Beloved

Happy Anniversary....Jake Monster! Italian Mafia Man! Stud Muffin! Fat Jack Daddy Cat! Jay!! Macaroni Man! Hunka Hunka Burnin Love!! Ok, so you see the list could go on. We've grown many names over these past years. And I love them all. And he still looks the same to me although it couldn't be because when we met his hair was long and I thought he was a "rocker" wannabe. haha

Our actual anniversary is on February 1st but the Monster Mash has prepared a getaway weekend in the Keys that begins tomorrow and lasts through the weekend so...this is my getting ahead instead of falling behind. I hope you love the song...I love Celine Dion's rendition of it.

May the Lord bless you. If you are married, may He bless your marriage. If you are looking for that special someone to share your life with, may He make that person known to you. Trust Him...He is a faithful God...He knows your perfect mate already.

1 Corinthians 13:13 "But now abideth faith, hope, love, these three; and the greatest of these is love"
