Life...

Psalm 145:1-5

1) I will extol thee, my God, O king; and I will bless thy name forever and ever.
2) Every day will I bless thee; and I will praise thy name forever and ever.
3) Great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised; and his greatness is unsearchable.
 4) One generation shall praise thy works to another, and shall declare thy mighty acts.
5) I will speak of the glorious honor of thy majesty, and of thy wondrous works.

Life is...well life.  Some days are wonderful, and some not so wonderful.  Some days, it seems, would be better spent in bed, hiding under the covers.  But it would not change the circumstances.  

God has been so good to our family.  We are going on six months with no job or income.   But God has not forgotten us.  He, in His timing {which is always the perfect timing}, gives us what we need.  From time to time Hubby is able to pick up an "odd" job--for exactly what is needed.  Sometimes God  has used someone to bless us financially for exactly what is needed.  Bags of food brought to our home or left on the porch.  He has protected our family from illness.  We have had colds, a sour tummy or two, and I had a sinus infection.  But the Great Physician took us through it.

The point is, God is good all the time, and all the time God is good!  He is unchangeable.
He has the best interest in mind for our family--all 13 of us living under one roof.  Our eyes need to stay focused on Him and not the situation.  He has not failed us. What we are going through has nothing to do with us, but it is ALL ABOUT HIM!  My children are experiencing first had the greatness of our Mighty God.  One day, if the Lord tarries in His coming, they will be able to "declare thy mighty acts".

My Mother's Gentle Love

My Mother's Gentle Love by Ron Hamilton Who puts a band-aid on my knee? Who holds me close so tenderly? Who always sees the best in me? There’s no one like mother. Who always wipes my tears away? Who tells me I’ll be great some day? Who cares in such a gentle way? There’s no one like mother. My mother’s gentle love, my mother’s gentle love Has taught me of God’s tender care, and turned my eyes above. I’ll bless her all my days for all her gentle ways. Oh, how I thank my Lord above for my mother’s gentle love. Today is my mother's viewing, and tomorrow is her funeral.  The song above so much describes my mom.  She loved her four children so very much!  Before she had children, she was a nurse for "special care" babies~~"old" term for NICU.  Once she started having children she gave  up her career to stay at home and raise her own babies. Thanks, Mom! Thank you, Daddy, for allowing Mom to stay at home and raise us four children! My mother and her mo

Life....

Busy.  That seems to describe life in our home.  Just day to day busy.  Nothing really noteworthy.  Life moves on.   Let me think, since I last posted.... well, let me back up to about a month before my last post.  Daughter #6 got married in October of 2022...today Son #7 got married.  So, I have gained another son and another daughter! Our youngest graduated from high school in May and our oldest grandchild graduated the following day!  From our oldest child to our youngest, we have 33 years of education. (I'm tired just thinking about it!!) Still only 13 grandchildren.  Hubby is still in education.  I keep things going on the home front.  I help out the families where and when needed.  I still make cards for the card ministry that I have been doing for 19 years.  I still crochet.   That about sums up life at this point.  Have a wonderful day!

Remembering Mom

  Eleven years ago, today, my mom entered the gates of heaven.   My heart still breaks, hurts, and grieves.  But I know I will see her one day.  It seems like it has been a lifetime.  My youngest was only 6 1/2, now she is 17 1/2, a senior in high school and trying to choose between two colleges.  My oldest was 26 with young children and now is 37 and his crew is growing up too quickly!   My oldest grandchild was 6 and now is 17 and a senior in high school.  My youngest grandchild was only 6 weeks old and now is eleven.  Eight of my thirteen grandchildren have been born since that day.    Mom Mom's Viewing My children, taken about 6 weeks before  Mom died. I miss you, Mom!
