  • HAVE A VERY BLESSED NEW YEAR






    2 Corinthians 5:17, Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new
    creation; the old has gone, the new has come!


    Whatever happened in 2008 will now be the past.  You can learn from it but you cannot ever erase anything. Only God can erase your sins.  You can however, choose to have a better more blessed 2009.  God is a God of second chances, and even more.

    Have a blessed New 2009.

  • THURSDAY THANKFULNESS AND MOVING DAY

    Hello my friends in blogland…

    I am so thankful for all who read and make comments on my blog.  I love your comments…pleae continue. 

    But I will be blogging over here

    I have nothing against Xanga…I just needed a change….such are the seasons of life. I still get an email of all your posts here and I will be commenting still…..love you all.

    I don’t know how much I will be blogging…it seems to take a lot of time for me lately but I will post.  I don’t have anything there yet, but a pretty background.

    I will leave you with this….


    How to know He’s near

    “How can you tell if He is working on you now? If you begin to sense your lostness and find yourself wanting to escape it, you should realize that that desire is not something you could have generated on your own. Such a process requires Help, and if it is happening it is a good indication that He is even now at your side.”

    - Timothy Keller, The Prodigal God (New York, NY: Dutton, 2008), 75.

  • SUNDAY HYMN

    We sang this in church this morning and it is something I would love to be done at my funeral…





    Rock of Ages, cleft for me,
    Let me hide myself in Thee;
    Let the water and the blood,
    From Thy wounded side which flowed,
    Be of sin the double cure;
    Save from wrath and make me pure.

    Not the labor of my hands
    Can fulfill Thy law’s demands;
    Could my zeal no respite know,
    Could my tears forever flow,
    All for sin could not atone;
    Thou must save, and Thou alone.

    Nothing in my hand I bring,
    Simply to the cross I cling;
    Naked, come to Thee for dress;
    Helpless look to Thee for grace;
    Foul, I to the fountain fly;
    Wash me, Savior, or I die.

    While I draw this fleeting breath,
    When mine eyes shall close in death,
    [originally When my eye-strings break in death]
    When I soar to worlds unknown,
    See Thee on Thy judgment throne,
    Rock of Ages, cleft for me,
    Let me hide myself in Thee.

  • THANKFUL THURSDAY

    God has promised forgiveness to your repentance, but He has not promised
    tomorrow to your procrastination.

    It has been quite a long time since I did a post.  It is a busy time of year.  No I do not get in the hustle bustle of the commercialism of the season.  School is winding down, for the Christmas break and I want all of the work done beforehand so we don’t have anything hanging over for those weeks.  Amy actually gets 3 weeks off.  Wow….should be fun.  I went in today and watched all the 6th graders recite their poems they have been working on.  Such talent in that class.  I was impressed.  It is so awesome to see her with her friends.  They are good kids.  And they really enjoy their teacher….she rocks.

    So tomorrow we have Native American Day at school.  The school is having a local tribe come and  show how they dance, do crafts and even bring a few horses for rides.  Should be a fun day.

    Blessings to all
