Dear Ones,
You are precious to me. The body of Christ is a Family.
You see these two children...one is riding and the other one is lifting and pushing a heavy load.
You who offered kind words and prayed for me over the week-end were like the child in the illustration that lifted and pushed the heavy load. I was the one needing help being carried and moved.
Thank you for your sweet prayers and gentle words of encouragement. Thank you, thank you. I felt your prayers.
At times Life has a way of challenging us...trying our patience.
S t r e t c h i n g past the comfort zone. I am so glad and thankful that the week-end went as well as it did. I'm more rested and feeling better.
Friday evening was a very quiet and I do mean quiet evening as my husband and I took a long drive to a different state for the week-end. We visited Family and saw our new grandson. By Sunday evening we are freely talking and discussing what needs to happen in order for us to not perish.
This week will be a busy one. I would much rather feel peaceful with the many challenges that are going on than to be an emotional basket case!!!
Have you ever heard that the mess you're in can be turned into a message?
Have you ever heard that the test you are facing can become a testimony?
With Saints like you praying and giving encouraging words, I was comforted. Thank you and I Thank God for you.
I was overwhelmed on Friday.
You have helped remove a heavy burden.

DECORATING
I knew a very frugal Lady named Edith that shared with me a excellent guideline for decorating. She said with ease, "If your room has clean ceilings, floors, and walls, and the windows have nice curtains, you'll have an attractive room."
John 3:7
“Marvel not that I said unto thee,
Ye must be born again.”
King James Version (KJV)
PSALM 118:17
I shall not die,
but live, and declare
the works of the Lord.
By wisdom
a house is built,
and through understanding
it is established;
through
knowledge
its rooms are filled with rare
and beautiful treasures.
SALVATION
Romans 10:9 King James Version (KJV)
9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
Acts 4:12 King James Version (KJV)
12 Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.
"HOME is a wonderful place to LIVE. No matter the size of the rooms, ones HOME is a place to call ones own. I so LOVE my HOME." ~Deanna~
PSALM 90:12
SO
TEACH us
to number OUR days,
that we may apply our HEARTS

WISHES
NO MATTER HOW BADLY YOU WISH with all your might that the something devastating that happened in your life hadn't happened and want so badly to go back in time to prevent it from happening...it isn't humanly possible to do this. You can't change the fact that it happened. IT DID. But JESUS can change the MEANING of what happened to you and give you PEACE. He can show you the way in which you are to go. God richly BLESS you. ~Deanna
