You Are On A High...

You are on a high and then, boom!!!!! I had such a wonderful day yesterday with my brother and family, as I shared with you yesterday! Today, I get asked if I said something that I know I didn't. My brother's girlfriend is back on her thing and mad at me again. I tryed to clear it up and tell her that no matter what, I love her and just want to know the truth. Well, she wouldn't even talk to me!! What can I say? I tryed!!

I think of how disappointed Jesus must be with all who take His name in vain. For all, He gave all!! I am sorry for the lost and continue to seek God how to reach the people He desires to be in Heaven!

I pray you have a blessed night sleep and day tomorrow!!

I shoveled two inches after church. There is at least three more waiting to be shoveled in a.m.

Blessings on Lynda and Jack as they are away traveling!! I love you two!!

Today Was Such a Blessing!!!

When you ask people to pray and they do, you can tell!! Thanks to all who prayed!! I went to my brother's house that he has down here, in Cazenovia, 20 minutes away. He also has a house in Bloomer, WI. We had a wonderful time of my first turkey of the Thankgiving season and much more. I am so proud of myself for actually not over-eating this year! It helps not feel well, too! HHHMMM....

There are those moments that you just want to never end!!! Yes, today was one! It was such a wonderful gathering of mixed families, girlfriends, fiance', sisters, brothers, cousins, nieces, nephews, and grandpa/dad! I found out that not only is my sister getting married in May of next year, but both of my brothers. WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That is what I say!! WOW!!!!!!!!! April, May, and not sure-June, July, or August! Dad and I just looked at each other as this was not public info as far as to my brothers getting married. You know when one lady has a diamond on her hand, it is not too hard to figure out something is brewing. My brother just looked at me and said, "Oh, news to me. I am not getting married. What you talkin' bout?" I am not dumb nor was I born yesterday or the day before!! Hello Tracy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Then the BIG question was, "Auntie, when you getting married?" My answer is, "He is out there and he is the best one for me because I am waiting on God, although I may not be very patient at times!"

Then, such a tender moment!! My little nephew of two years and a few months had been flying through the house picking up slivers in his feet and Mommy picking them out! He was bouncing in a chair and he literally bounced from chair to rubbermaid container to the couch and then...caboom on his head on the wood floor that hasn't had carpeting laid yet!! The house went silent and then a hugh scream! I had to fight not to cry with him as he was holding his head and Mom nor Dad could comfort him! He ran to hind behind the blanket hung as a door to the upstairs and cryed and cryed and cryed, holding his head! I called out to him, "Haden, come here." He would stop crying look and then turn around and continue on crying. I had my arms out for him to come. After a few times of me calling out to him, he came to me with his arms out-stretched for me to pick him up! He put his head on my shoulder and stopped crying as I began praying and talking to him. I could hear him say, "Auntie". Oh my heart melted and I have tears in my eyes now just thinking back to that moment. The truth is, this was the first and only time I have ever held Haden. It was so touching as he would pull away, look at me, smile, and then lay his head back down on my shoulder.

Is this not what God is asking of His children? For us to run into His arms and be held by Daddy? Oh today, I ran to Daddy and He is still holding me tight!! I have had a new joy put in my heart!! It is the joy that only Big Daddy in Heaven could put in me. I am so blessed by the little things that I so often take for granted and don't even realize that I am doing it! Forgive me Daddy!!

I pray you are blessed by this blog. I have enjoyed sharing with you!! Have a blessed Sunday!!

And to all, a blessed good night!

It Is Hard When You Know You Have To Do Something That May Hurt Someone Else!

I had asked a friend to go with me to Madison as I sometimes have trouble staying awake especially with Jack, as he doesn't talk much. I also thought that it would be good for us to get to know each other better. This is the gentleman who is 26 years older and dead-set on marrying me! The trip was great Wednesday. He wants to change his life-style and get healthy, and on and on and on. I stated that this change has to be because you want it and that you know God has called you to it. Do Not Do This For Me! It won't last if you don't do it for someone else! All was great! We had a wonderful time! You already hear the BUT... don't you?

I asked if he wanted to come have Thanksgiving with me wherever it be. Plans changed I think four times, at least! He didn't care as long as he was with me! I thought, oh boy! He's got it bad!!!!!!!!!!!! I kept telling him that he is not marriage material for me. I am not ready. I have two years here. He was all fine as long as we could be together. I didn't want to hurt him, but may be it would have been better to say, no, go do what you where going to do. This way a great eye-opener tho!

Sorry, I am jumping ahead, maybe! We ended up at Dad's and Heather's place with Dale, Heather's fiance (my sister) and then T and I. All was fine till they ate supper as I was not feeling well! Then, things got uncomfortable and I finally just said to T, we need to go! Again, he said he was just fine with that! I couldn't get away fast enough. I didn't understand until I got home and then God spoke to me last night and then today.

I told T on the way home that I cannot be in a realationship with him! I see him as only as a friend! He is ten chapters ahead! HOLD ON BABY!!!!!!!!!!!!

I finally just said today that I am not feeling well! I need space and will not spend anymore time with him for now. I will not go dancing with him and the other couple tonight! I thank God for, once again, prayers and opening my eyes!!!!!!!!! He is so giving and that is when you have a messed up thinking that may be.... Been there and don't want to go back!

I ask that you please keep T in your prayers as I cannot believe he is as fine as he says. If he is, great! I told him over and over that he was getting his hope way too high and that he could get hurt!! Thanks for reading and praying!!

Blessings! I am going with my sister and her fiance tonight and watch them dance. This time, I think it will be good!

I have a family Thanksgiving in Cazenovia with my brother and the gang. Please, pray this is a time of blessings and not the usual!! Thank you!!

I have sosososo much to do this weekend and feel sick! God is in control and I love Him above any man!

Happy Thanksgiving!!

Before I slip off into sleep land, I thought I would blog! It is interesting how God blesses you when you least expect it! Is that not how God works or so it seems sometimes! I was going to stay home and have a quite day with the dogs. Then, a friend said that we should hang out. Then, my sister, dad, her future husband, and another friend where coming to have a meal and I was going to cook. Now, I think that all has changed again. We all will be going to a new restaurant here Reedburg. hhhmmm.... I hope it is better than the last two times and the only two time I ate there! God bless that business!

What are you thankful for today? My list is long and I will share a few!!
1) The saving grace and mercy of Jesus Christ!
2) Church family, Jack and Lynda, and other friends who love me!
3) It is a joy to care for one and hear, "Thanks sweetie!"
4) Home, bed, food, warmth, and all in that category!
5) Lynda's awesome cooking! I miss it a lot when she is gone. I miss her when she is unable to cook, like Monday nites!
6) The day to day challenges that cause me to press in to Jesus!
7) An interesting fella in my life who is determined to marry me! One day at a time and we will see now, won't we?
8) Homework! I love school and to learn new things!
9) Spelling tests! It gives me a chance to hear Lynda get wound up while I struggle through studying the 20-word list with her!! I love you Lynda! You are awesome!!
10) I am most thankful that I am free to worship a loving God and have a friend who is closer than a brother or sister!
11) I am so thankful for my health and that I can drive and ride and walk and run and dance!
12) I am thankful for you!

Blessings to all in Jesus's Mighty Name!!

Do You Really Want What You Pray For and How Bad?

Wow, without going into great detail, I had been seeking the Father about a certain area in my life. Wanting to be in complete submission to God, I just want His will in every area! I really had prayed specifically and the very next day, it was a blow-me-away moment! I am continuing to seek the Father and ask that you join me in His will for a mate in my life!

Be careful what you pray for! I am learning and am blessed by God's hand on me!

What a beautiful Crisp Morning!

Good morning to all of you bloggers! Have a wonderful day! I am off to catch up on some homework. It is not my favorite class, but it sure feels good when I am done with the assignments that come due. I am learning a lot about Word 2007 and Microsoft Office. You buy a computer that has the Office on it, but in 23 sessions, you will no longer have Office. Now you go to the 60 day trial, my next step, and then, well, run out of options, will need to but a key that has 23 or so characters. Then you are suppose to down-load only on one computer. I will be glad when I can do this!

You all have a blessed day in the mighty name of Jesus Christ!

What Really Happens To Our Minds When We Get Old?

What do you consider old may be a question to ask first? I think that old is 80 and up. I know that some people that I know would say 60. Okay-next question! What really happens to our minds when we get old? You can read a million books, studies, hypothesize, or just wonder. Did you ever think that maybe going to someone and asking them? I did and got a different answer every time. Talk about variety being the spice of life. I really think this is interesting! I was told that how people act when they get or are old is actually what his or her personality is like. Look out! That is scary!! Basically, we have free-will and can usually control our behavior and attitudes and blow-ups! I really am working on not bottling it all up and trying to talk thru whatever is bothering me. Boy, this really drives people nuts when I just don't "get it"! I won't mention any names for fear of incriminating myself!

Often times, there is a lot of anger associated with getting old. Understandably so too! I want to just live life to the fullest and then fall over or go in my sleep! What better way is there?

Blessings my dear one!

A New Friend!

I have connected with a blogger and what a sweet fragrance comes with this friendship-Jesus Christ!! I am blessed to meet my new friend.

I am so thankful for those who are not ashamed of the Gospel of Jesus Christ! He was not ashamed to hang on the cross for you and me! I am in awe of Jesus! He gave it all! His Daddy gave His only son. Wow!! Can you imagine the weight of the sins of the world. Who wouldn't sweat blood with that kind of weight?

As Thanksgiving is just a week away, think of all the things you are thankful for! I will begin with the first one now. I am thankful for you!

Blessings!

I have been wondering alot lately why things happen? There is a reason for everything. There is a season for everything. I had a moment today that I just jump out of my chair and said I am tired of being sick and tired. I think we all tend to go thru those times and wonder if it is ever going to end.

In the end, God is a big God. He is bigger than anything we are facing. I want to encourage whomever may read this that God is working. He has a plan and I don't want to miss it. He is so loving and awesome.

I think I am going to like blogging! I like writing and hope you like reading! To all my new blogger friends, "Hello!"

I also ask that you prayer worriers would keep this household in your prayers as we need and covet all prayers! Thank you and blessings be upon you in Jesus Name!!
