God Spoke!
And From The Arid Scene
Sprang Rich And Verdant

Till All The Earth Was
Soft And Green -
He Smiled -
And There Were Flowers.

God sent each person into the world with a
special message to deliver, a special song to
sing, and a special act of love to bestow. No
one else can speak my message,
or sing my song, or offer my love.......
these are entrusted to me.

Thoughts

If you can't be thankful
For what you receive,
Be thankful for what
You escape!

image
Our Father up in Heaven
Is very much aware
Of our failures
And shortcomings
And the burdens
That we bear.

~Helen Steiner Rice



image

The only thing I must do ...
I have to do ...
is let God be God.
He is in charge, I am not.
He knows the path, I do not.
He will lead me ...
not my have-tos.
If I could just allow this
one truth to wash
over me like a warm waterfall,
I would know 'peace.'
I would allow anxiety not
to have a home in my heart,
because it would be so full
of God's love and care.
There is no need
to PROVE myself to God.
He knows exactly
who I am and what
I am capable of.
He expects only love and praise.
The REAL GOAL has already
been achieved ...
He lives in my heart.



image

May your path be strewn flowers,
Memories, friends and happy hours,
May blessings come from Heaven above,
And fill your life with Peace and Love.

Just becasue
You can't see God
Doesn't mean
He isn't there!!
2 Corin 5:7


image

Hold your loved ones close
And tell them that you love them,
For if tomorrow never comes,
You will have no regrets about today!

The really frightening thing about middle age
is the knowledge that you'll grow out of it.

Take The Time

Too often we don't realize what we have until it is gone;
Too often we wait too late to say "I'm sorry - I was wrong."
Sometimes it seems we hurt the ones we hold dearest to our hearts;
And we allow foolish things to tear our lives apart.
Far too many times we let unimportant things into our minds;
And then it's usually too late to see what made us blind.
So be sure that you let people know how much they mean to you;
Take that time to say the words before your time is through.
Be sure that you appreciate everything you've got.
And be thankful for the Little things in life that mean a lot.

What can you do in 5 minutes?
With the hustle and bustle of today's
world you may not think you can
do too much. But, for just 5 minutes
everyday you can, put a smile
on someone's face, say a kind word
or two, give a little encouragement,
give a little praise or just make
someone feel special. This is
the main concept of
Random Acts of Kindness.
It is so easy to do, and
it makes you feel
sooo good !

My Mom

This is a picture of my Mother on my brother's
motorcycle. She would have never tried
driving the thing, but she was brave enough to
ride behind him, holding on for dear life, while
he drove...when she was in her early 70's!
Bless her heart, she was a sweet lady. She
went Home to live with the Lord in September
of 2003, and there's never a day goes by that
I don't think of her. I love you Mama!!

Because He Lives


God sent His son, they called Him Jesus
He came to love, heal, and forgive.
He lived and died to buy my pardon,
An empty grave is there to prove my Savior lives.

Because He lives, I can face tomorrow.
Because He lives, All fear is gone.
Because I know He holds the future,
And life is worth the living just because He lives.

Words: Bill & Gloria Gaither

Welcome to my profile page. Thanks for stopping by.
If you see someone without a smile today, why not give them
one of yours? It will make both of you happier.
Have a super day!

God's Reason

image

GOD'S REASON
I don't know how to say it
But somehow it seems to me
That maybe we are stationed
Where God wants us to be.

That little place we're filling
Is the reason for our birth
And, just to do the work we do
He sent us down to earth.

If God had wanted otherwise
I reckon He'd have made
Each of us a little different...
Of a worse or better grade.

And since God knows and understands
All things of land and sea
I fancy that He placed us here...
Just where He wanted us to be.

Someimes we get to thinking
As our labors we review...
That we should like a higher place
With greater things to do.....

But we come to he conclusion
When the envying is stilled....
That the post to which God has sent us
Is the post He wanted filled.

The most beautiful of couples,
Designed by the Master's plan
Are those who serve together...
In any way they can.

And there isn't any service
That we honestly can scorn
For it may be just the reason
God allowed us to be born.

A little about me

Updated imageJuly. 2009
I have been married to a career Navy man (now retired) for the past 41 years, and we have 2 grown, married daughters, and one beautiful little grandson, born August 5, 2008. During our Navy days we lived all over...North Carolina, Washington, D.C., Virginia, Florida, Connecticut, Tennessee and South Carolina, in the U.S., and Wales in the U.K. We have lived here, longer than we have lived anywhere else since we got married, and will probably remain here until God takes us home.

Hobbies

image image image

I am the kind of person who likes to try my hand at almost any craft I see, and I tend to enjoy most of them. I will admit that I used to do a lot more crafting when our children were growing up, than I do now. These days, I lean more toward crocheting, making greeting cards, crossword puzzles and playing on the computer, in my spare time. However, I reserve the right to buy more crafting materials at any given time! image I collect penguins, ducks, teapots and angels.
And, although I don't have a collection of them, I love lighthouses, too

    imageMornin" Mary, You can take some credit for the appearance of my profile page, without your help it would still be drab. Thanks again for helping me out.

    I'm still tweeking parts of it, which is kind of fun to do, but frustrating at the same time. I'll do some changes, look at them and decide....no....go back and do it again. Oh well, perhaps I'm being too fussy.

    Have a great day. Sassy
