This is the day~

This is the day that the Lord has made...I will rejoice and be glad in it! After a week of being so very sick to the point where I couldn't get up off the couch..the Lord granted me a wonderful day with the kids and some very wonderfully encouraging and godly girlfriends. We had such a blessed day with our kids and the cousins. I can only go to the beach here in Florida early in the morning or late in the day because the sun and I are not friends~ Can't really take sun ...not good for my illness...so we ventured out early this morning until noon and we had a blast! What a blessing a good day of fellowship can do a soul~

So my heavenly Father I thank you for the many blessings you have given me ...my friends and family and my health~ I am a walking miracle and I must remember that the Lord will never leave my family nor will He forsake us~

Staying focused~

These past several days..I have been having trouble with staying focused...Which is a symptom I believe of my weariness because I am naturally a focused person. I have been praying for sometime for my children that the Lord would keep them on the straight and narrow and the He would keep their eyes ahead of them to Him..so for me to feel like this was defeating to say the very least and than I remember our circumstances and my life begins to swirl around me~ Ever have days like this when you find yourself simply crying out.....Lord are you there? Lord do you see the mess I am ? Lord do you care? Tom was away at school last week..he had failed his air brake test...well, they made him take all five exams again...even though he had passed them all....talk about pressure. My poor husband missed it by two points..and than he got a ticket coming home...he too feels worn and weary...and yet a friend said to me today..hold on your breakthrough is right around the corner...and you know...I believe that...what is that old saying it is always darkest before the dawn~ Our God is a God of miracles one who I believe can do all things...My plaque in the kitchen reads: "GOD ANSWERS KNEE MAIL"....So Lord I am on my knees~
