i see those who Love me and who i love and i feel fake CUZ i act OK and try to feel OK but i not inside and i just have to work through me feeling but it been hard i just like to be in the small dark space at times but i have not been doing much of anything i jut don't feel up to it i just want to be alone where i know it safe

although i have been blessed and i think of you everyday as well and know that you are SO HAPPY BEING A FAMILY and that helps too

this just came to mind and i will share!!

my hope is in the lord. more and more i will set me hope in the lord. i know that what ever the future may hold it will hold more and more through our lord. It cannot but be Glad and full of JOY. so in Heaven or and on earth where ever you may be, my way must be truly one of delight.

i will not try to find answers to the mysteries of the world, learn to know the lord and in that Knowledge i will have all the answers i need here. so when i see him face to face in that purely spiritual world i will find no need to speak. because there again all my answers will be in the lord and me.

Remember our lord is the answer in all man's time of need about our father and his lows. Know no theology just know our lord. IF MAN does not know our lord all his EXPLANATIONS will fall on an unresponsive heart.

so i trust in the lord and working on that relationship

that i have but that i am building stronger through these experiences of 2008

AGAIN THANK YOU

for all your time and sharing your

JOYS and experiences as a family!

love

Little by Little

And the Lord your God will clear those

nations before you,little by little;

you may not consume the

quickly, lest the beasts of the fieldincrease among you.

-DEUTERONOMY 7:22

Recently I thought about my like from the time I seriously began to follow Jesus Christ to today. Had i known then - at the beginning of the journey - all the things God would take me through, I would probably have been afraid to sign up for the trip!

As I look back, However, I realize that God held my hand and let me advance in small steps. I had times of great discouragement - as well all do. I remember times of bitter tears over my personal failures. But God kept nudging me forward.

That's the secret of living the victorious Christian life - we move ahead little by little. It;s an inch forward over months and years. Most of us can understand that. The same is true in the battle for the minds. We don't roust Satan in one BIG blow and them live in victory forever after. We win one small battle, and then we're ready to move on to the next one. We may have few major victories that come suddenly, but not many of them. the fight to destroy Satan's strongholds comes mostly by daily happenings and moving ahead.

The first time I thought of that fact, it was in discouraging, until i realized the wisdom of God. The spiritual principal works on ever level.God had blessing out there waiting for us, but it is up to us, to go and take in and take it.

In the verse I based this off of, God spoke of the beast in the fields. There were many wild animals in the land, and it could have been dangerous. But what it we thought of the beast as PRIDE? What if God suddenly gave us Full, complete victory, and e never struggled again; how would that affect us? Surely pride would creep in.

God has a wonderful plan for each of us, but it never comes with just one major victory, so that we never struggle again. Instead, it's an warfare, and we must remain vigilant and be aware of the attacks of the enemy.

Another aspect is that because we move ahead little by little, it makes makes us savor every victory. Every time we overcome or destroy one of Satan's strongholds, we rejoice. thus we can remain in a constant thanksgiving. If we've had only one victory how dull our lives would be. Or worse yet, how easy would it be for us to take God for granted. Isn't it better to serve a God who takes us slowly forward, always showing us the way, always encouraging US?

Help me to realize my struggles and call on YOU, I see Your wonderful, loving and caring hand taking me forward - little by little- For that I am grateful. AMEN

WE CHOOSE

People come into your life for a reason, a season or a lifetime.

When you know which one it is, you will know what to do for that

person.

When someone is in your life for a REASON,
it is usually to meet a need you have expressed.

They have come to assist you through a difficulty,
to provide you with guidance and support,

To aid you physically, emotionally or spiritually.
They may seem like a godsend and they are.

They are there for the reason you need them to be.

Then, without any wrongdoing on your part or at an

inconvenient time,

This person will say or do something to bring the relationship to

an end.

Sometimes they die.
Sometimes they walk away.

Sometimes they act up and force you to take a stand.

What we must realize is that our need has been met,
our desire fulfilled, their work is done.

The prayer you sent up has been answered and now it is

time to move on.

Some people come into your life for a SEASON, because your turn

has come to
share,
grow or learn.

They bring you an experience of peace or make you laugh.

They may teach you something you have never done.

They usually give you an unbelievable amount of joy.

Believe it, it is real. But only for a season.

LIFETIME relationships teach you lifetime lessons,

Things you must build upon in order to have a solid emotional

foundation.

Your job is to accept the lesson,

Love the person and put what you have learned to use in all other

relationships and areas of your life

It is said that love is blind but friendship is clairvoyant

Thank you for being a part of my life,

Whether you were a reason, a season or a lifetime.

Food for thought

" Walk on a rainbow trail; walk on a trail of song,

and all about you will be beauty.

There is a way out of every dark mist, over a rainbow trail."

-Navajo Song-

There is no difficulty that enough love

will not conquer; no disease that enough

love will not heal; no door that enough love

will not open; no gulf that enough

love will not bridge; no wall that enough

love will not throw down; no sin that enough love

will not redeem... It makes no difference

how deeply seated may be the trouble; how

hopeless the outlook; how muddled the tangle; how great the mistake.

A sufficient realization of

love will dissolve it all.

If only you could love enough

you would be the

happiest and most powerful

being in the world...

Everyone's life is a picture,Painted by only one person,Life itself.The picture shows everything you're doing,And everything you have done.But sometimes, Life gets tired.And doesn't want to paint a picture.So, Life sends problems to stop you,If you give up, your picture is finished.If you keep going, so does your picture.So the question is:How soon do you want to see your picture? Do you want to see it now?When it could be so much more?Or later, when there's so much more than before?
It's your choice,

I'll keep going.
