Strings?

 Musical instruments have a way of wearing down, with much use.  The strings on a guitar need to be replaced often because of this.  Finding the right string electric guitar   can be messy and you just want to give up.  You find too much to choose from and want it simple.  Click on the above link and do your shopping online, for a simple way to get this done.  There's plenty of items and if you search well, you can find good sales.

Thank You

Dear Lord, I thank you for this day. I thank You for my being able to see and to hear this morning. I'm blessed because You are a forgiving God and an understanding God. You have done so much for me and You keep on blessing me. Forgive me this day for everything I have done, said or thought that was not pleasing to you. I ask now for Your forgiveness.

Please keep me safe from all danger and harm. Help me to start this day with a new attitude and plenty of gratitude. Let me make the best of each day to clear my mind so that I can hear from You.

Let me not whine and whimper over things I have no control over. Let me continue to see sin through God's eyes and acknowledge it as evil. And when I sin, let me repent, and confess with my mouth my wrongdoing, and receive the forgiveness of God.

And when this world closes in on me, let me remember Jesus' example -- to slip away and find a quiet place to pray. It's the best response when I'm pushed beyond my limits. I know that when I can't pray, You listen to my heart. Continue to use me to do Your will.

Continue to bless me that I may be a blessing to others. Keep me strong that I may help the weak. Keep me uplifted that I may have words of encouragement for others. I pray for those who are lost and can't find their way. I pray for those who are misjudged and misunderstood. I pray for those who don't know You intimately. I pray for those who will delete this without sharing it with others. I pray for those who don't believe. But I thank you that I believe.

I believe that God changes people and God changes things. I pray for all my sisters and brothers. For every family member in their households. I pray for peace, love and joy in their homes that they are out of debt and all their needs are met.

I pray that every eye that reads this knows there is no problem, circumstance, or situation greater than God. Every battle is in Your hands for You to fight.
 I pray that these words be received into the hearts of every eye that sees them and every mouth that confesses them willingly..

This is my prayer.
In Jesus' Name,

Amen.

Freedom and Jeff

 I found this story in an email, that was sent to me back a few years ago and thought how beautiful it was..........so, I am sharing it with you in hopes it will give you the nurture you need in today's life.........


Description:  cid:image001.jpg@01CCC5E9.78295BD0Freedom and Jeff
Freedom and I have been together 11 years this summer. 
She came in as a baby in 1998 with two broken wings.
Her left wing doesn't open all the way even after surgery,
it was broken in 4 places.
She's my baby.

When Freedom came in she could not stand 
and both wings were broken. She was 
emaciated and covered in lice. We made the 
decision to give her a chance at life, so I took 
her to the vet's office. From then 
on, I was always around her. We had her in a 
huge dog carrier with the top off, and it 
was loaded up with shredded newspaper for her to 
lay in. I used to sit and talk to her, 
urging her to live, to fight; and she would lay 
there looking at me with those big brown eyes. 
We also had to tube feed her for weeks.

This went on for 4-6 weeks, and by then she still 
couldn't stand. It got to the point where the 
decision was made to euthanize her 
if she couldn't stand in a week. You know you don't 
want to cross that line between torture and 
rehab, and it looked like death was 
winning. She was going to be put 
down that Friday, and I was supposed to come in 
on that Thursday afternoon. I didn't want to go 
to the center that Thursday, because I couldn't 
bear the thought of her being euthanized; 
but I went anyway, and when I walked in everyone 
was grinning from ear to ear. I went 
immediately back to her cage; and there she was, 
standing on her own, a big beautiful 
eagle. She was ready to live. I was 
just about in tears by then. That 
was a very good day. 

We knew she could never fly, so the director 
asked me to glove train her.
I got her used to the glove,
and then to jesses, and we started
doing education programs for schools
in western Washington . 
We wound up in the newspapers, 
radio (believe it or not) and some 
TV. Miracle Pets even did a show 
about us.

In the spring of 2000, I was diagnosed with 
non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. I had stage 3, 
which is not good (one major organ plus 
everywhere), so I wound up doing 8 months of 
chemo. Lost the hair - the whole 
bit. I missed a lot of work. When I 
felt good enough, I would go to Sarvey 
and take Freedom out for walks. Freedom would 
also come to me in my dreams and help me fight 
the cancer. This happened time and time again.

Fast forward to November 2000

the day after Thanksgiving,
I went in for my last checkup. 
I was told that if the cancer was not 
all gone after 8 rounds of chemo, then my last 
option was a stem cell transplant. Anyway, they 
did the tests; and I had to come back Monday for 
the results. I went in Monday, and I was 
told that all the cancer was gone.

Description:  cid:image002.jpg@01CCC5E9.78295BD0 

So the first thing I did was get up to Sarvey and 
take the big girl out for a walk. It was misty
and cold. I went to her flight and jessed her 
up, and we went out front to the top of the 
hill. I hadn't said a word to 
Freedom, but somehow she knew. She looked at me 
and wrapped both
her wings around me to where I 
could feel them pressing in on my back 
(I was engulfed in eagle wings), and she 
touched my nose with her beak and stared into my 
eyes, and we just stood there like that 
for I don't know how long . That was a 
magic moment. We have been soul mates ever 
since she came in. This is a very special bird.

On a side note: I have had people who 
were sick come up to us when we are out, and 
Freedom has some kind of hold on 
them. I once had a guy who was 
terminal come up to us and
I let him hold her.
His knees just about buckled and he 
swore he could feel her power course through his 
body. I have so many stories like that..

I never forget the honor I have of being so close 
to such a magnificent spirit as 
Freedom.

Fine Replica's

You see them everyday and wonder how they can afford such nice jewelry?  Their fine watches stand out as a status symbol for all to see.  Yet, I wonder if you actually know where or not their watches are authentic?  I have found that you can get  Replica Watches  made of the same Swiss movements, at a price under $200.  All of their products a guaranteed to be undetectable, and of great quality.  A deal is what you get when you purchase one of these fine  Swiss Replica Watches   at such a bargain. Looking at the website I see many good buys, that you can easily afford.  Why pay a whopping $20,000 for your Rolex, when you can get a  Rolex Replica to make your wardrobe complete?  Making your coworkers envious will be the thing to top off your workday.  Once you invest in a beautiful watch from this website, you will have a hard time waiting for it's arrival in the mail. You'll be so happy once you receive it, and there's always a chance you'll be interested in getting another.  Maybe even find one that will be a nice gift for that special person. Just click on one of the links in this post and do your shopping for the one and only.  You'll be glad you did.

All Things

Living daily by the seat of your pants is becoming a way of life.  Learning to believe and trust in things to happen according to the way their supposed to is a test.  Humans aren't as able to do this in the world where we exist.  We find ourselves wanting to hurry things along a bit in order to take off some stress.  Many times all we do is cause ourselves more worry and stress, by taking matters in our own hands.  When I stay back and wait for God's help.  Things fall right into place just as they were meant to.  I hope that I can do this more often and keep as much stress out of my life as possible.

Back to School

It's that time again, and all the parents have geared up to get all the different supplies their children to make this school year a great one.  The football season comes along during this time and there is the school bands that perform during and at halftime.  A beginner instrument can be found for your new band student at  wwwmusicianfriend.com to aide your student with his/her goals in the music world.  Strike up the band to some soul stirring music when you hear the march songs of the past or the new world version of how school bands perform today.

A Local

One of our local citizens lost his life this morning when he was involved in a auto accident near Greenville, TX.  I grew up knowing his brothers and sisters while in grade and high school here in town.  I was in the same grade with his sister and remember how tall and slim he was back then.  It's a sad time for the Fraiser family and I hope that they will have the comfort needed to endure this loss.

5 Dead Including Gunman

Once again our nation is reeling from the attack of a terrorist in a one man ordeal.  Two locations were attacked leaving 4 military and the gunman dead.  Reports have it that a lone gunman drove up to both places in a silver Mustang convertible.  Shots were fired into both facilities by this gunman, leaving many businesses on "lock down", until the areas were secured.
We offer prayers to the families, friends and coworkers of the slain.  May God comfort them and give them strength to move through the following days after this event.

Price Guide

I know there are people who need help with different aspects of buying a Fender.  If I were buying one, I would definitely need a  fender guitar price guide  to do some comparing of each unit offered.  It's amazing to see the many amenities offered with a guitar, when your investing.  The seasoned players, will know exactly what they are getting and if the price range is proper for the value of the instrument.  Look under the link in this post for more information about the price's of buying a Fender guitar.

So Sad

In the last few days, a person took his life for whatever sad reason.  He was husband to my oldest daughter's childhood friend.  It seems that this man had been experiencing many health problems through the past few years, along with emotional problems as well.
When the woman left to find safety from his domestic outbursts, he began to regress and thus lost his will to live.  I know how sad this must be for his family and friends.  The reality of knowing you couldn't help someone during their emotional bouts, is a hard thing to accept.
As for the wife, she knows that even though there was good, there was also too much bad to deal with.  Her life being safe was a very important issue, when he would loose control of his actions.  Yet, she will live with the sad fact that the short time they were together, didn't give him the emotional help he needed.  I pray God's comfort, understand and peace for everyone involved in this time of  sadness. May this poor unhappy man, rest in peace!

America

Dear readers, it is a very sad day for all who believe in our Lord Jesus and all the teachings of our Christianity.  Our nation has once again let us down with the Supreme Court ruling in favor of same sex marriages.  Pray for our nation against the onslaught from satan and his demons.  Christain's, we are under attack and we must stand up against the enemies of the Lord!  PRAY!

Strings

Wow, now I've heard it all and I'm sure that there's more I haven't heard.  The  titanium power  of strings?  It says that the guitar strings are coated with this mixture.  I wonder what sounds this might produce?  It must be quality, because they wouldn't be getting sold at this website, by a reputable store.  You musician's know what they are and I'm sure you will be checking the price on a set of these, next time you consider buying a some.

Blessings?

Laying in bed during the night, I remembered an old song, that I sang in church many times.  "Count Your Blessings", is a song I grew up with as I'm sure many others did.  It kept running through my mind as I lay there and I went through the words and verse as if I were singing it long ago.  Then, I realized that this must be what I should start doing, because it's been awhile since I made myself think of the many things I have, compared to others.  I felt as if I had let down on my worship of the only one who has brought me through so many storms in life.  So, today I've kept the memory of this song running through my mind, to help me be humble and not react so quickly to things I dislike.  Thank you Lord, for everything!

Answered

 
You don't know how many times, I claimed the protection of our Lord, over this tree.  For protection from it falling and taking out the power lines which are directly under it, where it would fall too.  Protection of the home and cars parked over there is also in the prayers, each time.  As you can see, it is already leaning and many of the large limbs are rotting, which gives it a matter of time before they will start falling.  Depending on the severity of the storms and wind we have in our area, my fingers stay crossed and prayers constantly go up to our Lord.  In the recent week, you can be sure I've done this with all the rain, sleet, snow and ice.  So, far he has protected us and kept everything safe.  Thank you Lord.

Home Comfort

I just love going shopping for new bedding or other home furnishings.  Mostly, the fun happens when I get back and start putting the new stuff up or on the bed.  New curtains, that match the comforter and sheets can really boost one's outlook on their home's comfort.  As they say, I  found this or that at a great price, and now I can enjoy the efforts of my shopping.  A shopping spree for sale items, can give you more enjoyment than you can imagine.  Click on the above link and do some convenient shopping online, today!

Spring

These are just some of the beautiful spring flowers that I've been blessed to enjoy each year.
 
I'm ready for spring, so it will bring these pretty flowers back again.

Accents

Movie productions, come with a lot of sounds, during the films.  You often hear loud drums which build the excitement of danger, or when the climax of the scene happens you hear cymbals crashing.  When shopping for cymbals, I suggest clicking on the link in this post.  It will you take directly to the  Z hihats  website, so that you can look at all the different equipment they have to offer.  I remember the days of playing in the high school band, and the moments of cymbal crashing during a song.

Teak Patio Sets

The season of summer is fast approaching and with it comes the need to revamp your home and garden furnishings.  A splash of decor which includes a tropical theme, can really make your patio, garden or deck inviting to visitor's this season.  It's a great idea to do your shopping ahead of time, to insure the right items to finalize your decor.  The patio serves the purpose for entertaining welcomed guests to your parties.
I searched a website that can help with your shopping trek.  The  Home and Patio Décor Center has a great selection of teak patio sets   which you can purchase for different prices, according to the style you want.
You can also visit their coupon page, where you will find great discounts on their items, when purchased.  I'm sure you will notice all the different sets they have listed, and find the other products they offer as well.  There's kitchen, bathroom, bedrooms, even kid's rooms that are assembled to suit your flare.  Accessories can be purchased to compliment the theme you plan to develop in your home.
The Decor Center has representatives available who are experienced in giving you the advice when shopping and making your order.  Look around the website, call their phone number and find the quality that comes with the value of your patio theme options.

I'm Sad

The whole world watches as the story progresses with the now hospitalized Bobbie, who is the daughter of the late Whitney Houston.  It seems to be that fame and fortune is just too much for people to handle and with good reason.  Being in the front of cameras all of your life, can take it's toll on young people.  I often see the children of famous people trying to cringe away from the cameras as they maintain behind the famous parent.
Here once again, we see a drug related case, where the world today has pressed the pressure on the one's who are there to entertain us.  This person, was born into the fame and fortune, without a choice.  Surviving must have been a very hard thing to do, when even the parent wasn't able to make it.  My heart goes out to the people who now wait on the doctors to give them notice and the friends who are unable to help.  May God rest her soul.

Scary

I hate to say it, but we are living in a very scary world, today!  If you don't go to God, for help during these terrible times, then you don't know him.  We are going around in this everyday world with killers on the loose, in all shapes, races and sizes.  It's hard to know where the street your driving down will be safe a few minutes after you get on it.  People, are involved in road rage, drive by shootings, random terror attacks in large crowds, school shootings, by the students who go there.  Believe me, it's perilous times and we are just getting started.
America's Christan's need to get on their knees like never before!  The battle has begun and without God's help, we are in some bad trouble.

Prayer

In the last few days we have experienced winter weather.  It's been a threat of winter precipitation, with some ice.  Having large old trees around my home is a potential problem when the ice arrives.  Last year we had an ice storm that left huge trees broken and toppled from the weight of the ice.  Crews were working around the clock to restore electricity to many areas here in the North Texas locations.  Ours was one of them and it took the next door neighbors a whole week to get rid of the large tree and have the electric company come out to hook them back up.
I have a 200 year old tree that is in my front yard.  It's been large since I was a child and I'm now 70, which places it in the historic category.  I've left it alone out of nostalgia, but it's at the point I can no longer ignore it.  Each time we have a bad storm or threat of ice, I go into a prayer mode.  I can't tell you how many times I've prayed that God would put his hand on this tree and protect us from any disaster it could cause.
Living on a fixed income doesn't leave any extra money at the end of the month.  A tree this large could cost over $300 to $1000 to cut down and remove.  If it falls then it will take out the power lines that it is hovering right over at the present.  Some of the areas are rotting where limbs have gotten old and died.  It's not a good position to be in and it keeps me on edge just thinking about it.
A licensed electrician can also cost a pretty penny, so you see what I'm facing should this occur.
This time has been scary, but God has once again brought us through the storm.  The icy weather stayed up in the other counties and we only got cold rain here.  I am so thankful and this post is my verbal praise to our Lord for his mercy in this matter.  Truly, an answer to my prayers.  Thank you Lord!
