I’m In From The Yard

still have garden soil beneath my nails – even with gloves on it still finds its way in – and before I set to do anything further I wanted to say hello to you, my Friends. It will be a short visit this morning; thought I might just share pics of some of the things that have been occupying me this morning.

I was thrilled to see yellow blooms  

Still enjoying my Easter Lilies

Strawberries!!! And the flavor oh my word!

Here’s hoping for cascading flowers before long!

Just pretty I think – forget the name.

Genesis 8:21-22 New American Standard Bible (NASB)
21 The Lord smelled the soothing aroma; and the Lord said to Himself, “I will never again curse the ground on account of man, for the intent of man’s heart is evil from his youth; and I will never again destroy every living thing, as I have done.

22 “While the earth remains, Seedtime and harvest,
And cold and heat, And summer and winter,
And day and night Shall not cease.”
via Genesis 8:21-22 NASB – The LORD smelled the soothing aroma; – Bible Gateway.

ABBA, thank You for the morning of enjoyable ‘work’. Thank You for seed-time and harvest and You know I so desire a harvest of melons for sure; tomatoes would be appreciated too and some basil. Thank You, ABBA, for loving us so much. Thank You for each dear Friend who comes here to read and pray. I ask You to fill them with Your Love and Joy with purpose and vision for the life You desire them to live. Thank You for Your tender watch care over Sheila and we continue to ask for a complete healing. And we are remembering Noah and I am so ashamed I forgot his name but I know You know exactly who I am thinking of and his precious family too as they have all these matters concerning his medical condition and Rick and Cindy and Gay comes to mind too whatever the hard thing; Dori and her pending surgery. ABBA, once and for all could we be done with these surgeries, could there be a physician/surgeon who could do it right and she could heal and be restore? Please do this for Dori I pray. And there are others, Kathleen, and Kelley and Vikki, matters of grave conditions, physically and spiritually – heal our sick and rescue the rebellious is our continually prayer. And in our praying we present ourselves to serve, ABBA, however You will in JESUS Name.  Amen and     .

Here To Make

a quick report.

Sheila’s surgery went very well yesterday. We are waiting for results on lymph node removal and the doctor believes he got good margins with the mass and tissue he removed. Last evening she was waking up in SICU and her vitals looked very good.  Thank you for your prayers and please continue for recovery for Sheila.  We believe we are seeing a miracle unfold before our very eyes.  Again, thank you for your prayers; so glad you are a part of this miracle.

5 Conduct yourselves with wisdom toward outsiders, making the most of the opportunity.
6 Let your speech always be with grace, as though seasoned with salt, so that you will know how you should respond to each person.

Game?

First allow me to correct myself: Our little Noah is not 3.  He is not quite 2. I visited his mother’s Facebook page and her favorite quote is this: 

“faith can move mountains, but don’t be surprised if God hands you a shovel”

May I tell you I REALLY like that?!!

Please continue to pray for Noah and his mother, Rachel.

Before getting out of bed this morning I was reminded that our GOD and Father is THINKING about you (and me) today.

GOD, Creator of the Universe is thinking about YOU today!

4 How blessed is the man who has made the LORD his trust, And has not turned to the proud, nor to those who lapse into falsehood.
5 Many, O LORD my God, are the wonders which You have done, And Your thoughts toward us; There is none to compare with You. If I would declare and speak of them, They would be too numerous to count.
via Psalm 40 NASB – God Sustains His Servant. – For the – Bible Gateway.

Psalm 139:16-18 New American Standard Bible (NASB)
16 Your eyes have seen my unformed substance; And in Your book were all written The days that were ordained for me, When as yet there was not one of them.
17 How precious also are Your thoughts to me, O God! How vast is the sum of them!
18 If I should count them, they would outnumber the sand. When I awake, I am still with You.
via Psalm 139:16-18 NASB – Your eyes have seen my unformed – Bible Gateway.

And then the one you most likely memorized long ago in one version or another:

Jeremiah 29:11 21st Century King James Version (KJ21)
11 For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you an expected end.
via Jeremiah 29:11 KJ21 – For I know the thoughts that I think – Bible Gateway.

SO since the Ruler of the Universe is thinking of You today and His thoughts and plans are ONLY good for you, surely you (we) can do this day in peace and hope — whatcha say? Game?

ABBA, thank You for reminding me You are thinking of me; that You never forget any one of Your children. Thank You.  Thank You that Your thoughts are always with love and Your plans and deeds toward us are ALWAYS good and in our best interest. I petition You, HOLY SPIRIT, to help us REST on this promise and live victoriously for Your glory and our own good. And again we come today with Noah, asking JESUS that You heal this child and restore him to his mother. That You under gird and strength her love and faith in You. And there are others like Nick and Cindy, Sheila and her upcoming surgery, Mabel and her requests come to mind – You know my heart there, ABBA. So with all our sick, all our afflicted and all those we love who are yet lost, save them LORD we pray.  Amen and     .
