From A Few Years Back

I’ve been reading myself today.
SO, for tomorrow which is today by the time you get to read it, may I please go back to 2015 and give you a post from then to read today? 

Let me give you a portion of the post on this page and if you want to visit with the original, please do HERE.
There have been a few changes since the first writing – I’m a GREAT Grandmother now! 
And I’m several years older, Curves closed in our area but neighborhood streets still run to and fro. :)
And from time to time JT and I take a peppy walk. We can still do about 3.4 mph for a couple or three miles.
Enough of that.  To the 2015 post . . .

I am a rusher. I rush just about everything I do or think. Today’s Journeyof all things, is asking who am I. And what did I do as I began to read it? Yep. I rushed to read it, in fact as soon as I finish forming this sentence I am going to go back to it for I have yet to finish the reading as I rushed here to start writing this post. 

Other than one who rushes I wear many hats: wife, mother, grandmother, step-mother/grandmother, Sunday School leader/teacher; sometimes runner, more often walker, :) active Curves member, which probably clues you in that I have a thing for fitness. The truth is I stay active because I like to eat. 🙂 And I like to cook; I try to keep things on the healthy side, most of the time. My hubby retired this year and we are still adjusting. Actually, we are flat-out giddy about 6 Saturdays a week! Our days are packed with back-to-back long-awaited to-be-done projects and GRANDS who keep us young with all manner of activities. It’s all good! 

Still, with all that, is that who I am? Am I, are any of us, the sum total of what we do?  What happens when my doing is done? Who will I be then when what I do now I can do no more? Valid questions for pondering, huh?  There is an answer.

Isaiah 43:1 But now this is what Adonai says,
he who created you, Ya‘akov,
he who formed you, Isra’el:
“Don’t be afraid, for I have redeemed you;
I am calling you by your name; you are mine. [source]

You are mine, says GOD. Could there be anything more identifying?
Whose I am determines who I am.  
That’s the cake! What I get to do with all the people I love is delicious icing!

So that’s about it. If by chance you have not read Our Story, check it out HERE.

Until next time ~ ~ ~ Kathie 

P.S. I am still trying to LEARN to NOT rush. 

From a Decade Ago

The colors are long gone now but this message is just as fresh — from March 1, 2011. 

If you like click HERE and read from a decade ago. 

Here’s a start, to see if you might be interested. 

I am flat-out enjoying the new colors in our hall bath. I often stop in passing, lean my head against the door facing and just smile.

As I begin to write I am fresh from cleaning the miniature roller I used this morning for some touch-up and I have an application to share with you. It is by no means new but I have to have something to write about for our Tuesday time together.  🙂

I noticed it takes a lot of water to get the paint roller clean. Even when the roller looked clean and white again and I thought I might be finished, with just a little squeeze I knew there was yet paint hiding deep in the roller. 

Is a picture forming for you?

 

The rest HERE.

A Happy

Good Morning Friends, 
Honestly, I’m only here to pray today. I don’t have a lot to say otherwise. 
If you would like to join me — that would be a happy for me. :)

Oh, Father, Your Creation I see just outside my window is still beautiful and wonderful. I look at it and I think how can it be that so much evil is saturating this planet — yet I know.
The depravity of fallen humans has no bottom — a bottomless pit.
But You oh LORD are gracious and You have made a way of escape.
Thank You for Your Redemption. Thank You that ALL who will believe and trust You are saved and will yet be saved from the wretchedness of sin. Amen and amen in the Mighty Name of YESHUA.
