Faithful


When did they get so big?
So smart?
My legacy and my motive for every breath.
He wants to play the drums she wants to do ballet.
I just want to hold them and stop time to keep them near me.
God is so faithful, He keeps them and honors them with His love.
As we embark on anouther school year I find that I am looking at them a little longer, wishing for yesterday when they were born, but knowing they must fly.
Torn by there questions of how and why consitintly seeking truth so as to feed it to them.
And tomorrow they will be grown needing finances for college and God will be faithful then to.
Grow babies grow.......just not to fast")

His Hands


5 But he was pierced for our rebellion,

crushed for our sins.

He was beaten so we could be whole.

He was whipped so we could be healed.


16 Dogs have surrounded me;

a band of evil men has encircled me,

they have pierced [b] my hands and my feet.
How cruel that they pierced him...that they broke through his skin and crushed his nerves, that they did all the things that they did to him.
My focus today is the garden..Jesus knew that he was going to have to suffer..
I have to many areas that hurt me today..areas that are attached to people that I can't seem to help..grief that weighs heavy on me. The type of grief that hurts and weighs so much on my chest that I think about Him in the garden crying out the the Father to let this cup pass from Him and I think about the disciples and how they were weighed with grief that they couldn't bare it and just slept to get through, the drops of blood He sweated and the anguish that He felt all for me and for you..and although they came and pierced His hands and His feet He endured so that I could use my hands and feet because the enemy pierced Him but becasue he did he can't pierce me and I can use my hands to slap the enemy in the face as I love and do what I am called to do in the name of my Jesus. And although I am full with grief I know He felt it all and that He bore it for me and I can have peace in the midst of my inability to help them becasue what Jesus did was enough for me and for them.
You are my shield
my stregnth, my fortress, deliverer
my shelter, strong tower, my very present help in time of need...

The Brain


The Brain is a wonderful and amazing center for all things that govern the activity for the body.
But what happens when there is a mass, a tumor, a cyst...pressing on vital nerves.
There are many symptoms and many functions that are affected and not functioning.
Today was a bad day..today I made her cry...how much more can she take...she said today she went outside but had to run in feeling out of place..I told her all she had to do was survive and she said she didn't think she could...the brain is affected..the vital nerves being pushed on..or is it in anouther part of the brain where there are chemicals? What is going on...and will she make it through..she is sad, she is tired, she feels lost and defeated...anouther part of the brain..
Hang in there, break through, see clearly. Wisdom be near me, help me.
God of wonder and perfection deliverence and strength be with her in her need and set her free. Free from imbalanced chemicals, suicidal thoughts, her lost condition. Walk down the hall to the place where she sleeps touch her soul and set her free from the accusing voices with in. Set the captive free please Father please.

it is not time

You are not supposed to go
not now, not today
why would you end it all
and throw your choices away?

what happened? when did you break?
and come so close to causing so much heartache?

Why are you sick
and will it get better
is it cancer or is it safe

Can they operate and take it away
does it matter to you or would you rather it stayed?

how do i communicate
fear is ever present
God is my source
and I need His strength
but what can be done about ones mental state?

Is He big enough and will it matter
if the choices are still left so scattered?

Free will that is one I don't quite understand
please Lord heal her soul and help her stand.

Don't let her quit and throw it all away
I need her still to this very day.

I have been to see my beloved Angi and came back with a .....

Mission??? (Bond Girl)
MISSION:
an assigned or self-imposed duty or task; calling; vocation.
17.
a sending or being sent for some duty or purpose.
18.
those sent.

A mission...something I must do... work my business for the health and well being of a purpose that seems so far gone...but it is not with out fear of failure and another fall...but love trumps my fear...so I will work and set another goal...and let the chips land where they may as I give it my very best effort in March...

Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be terrified; do not be discouraged, for the LORD your God will be with you wherever you go."

Joshua 1:9
