A I 's response to my statement

 That’s a beautiful legacy—being raised in faith by someone who lived it with such devotion leaves a mark that doesn’t fade. Your grandmother sounds like one of those spiritual anchors, the kind who knew that prayer wasn’t just a ritual—it was a lifeline, a conversation, a way to stand in the presence of God even when the world felt shaky.

And your words carry that same depth. When you say “prayer is the only thing I know to speaking with God,” it’s not just a statement—it’s a testimony. That kind of faith, rooted in experience and relationship, is powerful. It’s not about knowing every theological nuance; it’s about knowing where to turn when your heart is full, or broken, or searching.

Pentecostal tradition especially emphasizes the presence of the Holy Spirit, the power of prayer, and the reality of spiritual gifts. That environment teaches you to expect God to move—not just in ancient texts, but in your everyday life.

Wisdom

My son, despise not the chastening of the Lord; neither be weary of his correction: For whom the Lord loveth he correcteth; even as a father the son in whom he delighteth. Happy is the man that findeth wisdom, and the man that getteth understanding. For the merchandise of it is better than the merchandise of silver, and the gain therof than fine gold. She is more precious than rubies: and all the things thou canst desire are not to be compared unto her. Length of days is in her right hand; and in her left hand riches and honour. Her ways are ways of pleasantness, and all her paths are peace. She is a tree of life to them that lay hold upon her: and happy is every one that retaineth her.
Proverbs 3:11-18

It Is Finished

My neighbor, passed last night, after only a few hours at home.  That's where she wanted to be and they brought her home.  It's hard to accept and I'm only a neighbor, but when that final time comes, it's very harsh on all who are near.  I will miss waving to her, when I drive by, and pray that her family will find comfort in the fact that she no longer is in pain.  Now, they must find ways to move forward, in life and accomplish goals that she hoped they would.  
So long, neighbor.....RIP

The Watch Begins

It's been awhile since, I've been on here and written anything.  This subject is something that's hard to write about, but it's been part of this blog, through the years..........
Today, I noticed a large truck pull up across the street.  It had medical equipment to deliver. A medical bed was delivered, meaning one thing.  This is a sad day to view, this action meaning, my neighbor is losing her battle with lung cancer.  She has fought it for over 3 years and now I am witnessing her finally stages as it drags the very life out of her fragile body.  I've sent prayers up to God, through those years, hoping for a miracle, but knowing that this type of cancer, doesn't give up.  Now I can only pray for her comfort during these final stages and for the comfort of her family as they endure the loss of their Mom, wife and grandmother.....along with a very large extended family.

God is Good

After only a few minutes, yesterday, with the weather temps dropping, my hot water lines froze, before I realized it.  I fell into silent prayer, for God's help and reminded him that he's never let me down before, and has always answered my sincere prayers.......... About and hour ago, my cold water in the kitchen, started working and a few minutes later, so did the hot water.  I'm so thankful to our Lord, for his constant help in time of need and daily as my husband and I go about our daily works.
Thank you Lord for your answer to my prayers, for protection and help.  Thank you for your daily help to make it through and on to another day you gift us with.......

2018

As we search our thoughts about, this past year and remind ourselves of things, gone by. Let us also look forward to the coming year with hope and love in our hearts, as we reach a milestone and move on to another. Remember the one's we've lost and the one's yet to come, for our future depends on the new one's that come to us from now on. God bless you all and may you have wonderful peace, this coming year, no matter what we may face.
God's peace and love to you my friends and readers.......

Spirit of Christmas

May we, seek a bright, particular star to guide us in our celebration of the Savior’s birth. May we all make the journey to Bethlehem in spirit, taking with us a tender, caring heart as our gift to the Savior.

How Sweet

I Shall Know Him.......

Beautiful

The Birth

And Then......

From out of the blue a strength came to me and I know that God was behind it all.  I fell into this horrible depression about my relationship and there was no help in sight.  As I languished in my sadness and pain of loosing the one thing I so dearly desired, I found my heart reaching for help.  God, is the only one who can help when you get this far down.  I knew it, just was wanting to put my all into this relationship, and felt I was giving it all I had.  It looks as though I either gave too much too soon, or it still wasn't enough.  Either way the strength to get through today, is there and I am holding on to the one thing that can get me through.  God.  
As I work through the loneliness and uncertainties of the situation, I know that I can reach out to God, for help and strength to maintain each minute of the day.

To God be the glory........great things he hast done........

Everywhere, Lately

Lately, it seems so many a passing on to their Heavenly home.  Many have passed, but not to a Heavenly home, because they just didn't know the Lord, or even care to.
We've lost one of our personal family members, and there are many who also have lost family members. 
In the last few days, the news has reported close to 10+ deaths of individuals, who are known nationwide/worldwide, in one fashion or another.  It is my wonder, whether our Lord is ridding or rescuing the one's he is taking from this world?
As I look at the recent list of those who have passed, I see one or two, who may have not lived well enough to become a citizen of Heaven.  Sad is the word, that can only be used, since many of us are glad, these people are no longer with us. 
Sad, is the word we use when looking at the reason some others passed.  Be it health matters, or just passing because it was their time to go.
Utmost condolences, go to family, friends and coworkers involved in these people's live.  Prayers, for all who have dealt with the sadness of watching their loved one, fight a disease or illness, only to grow weak from it's onslaught.  God, knows what he's doing, and I find comfort in knowing this.......

Request for Prayers

It is with deep sadness that I request your prayers, for my brother in law and sister.  He is going through the hardest part of cancer at the present and if the chemo doesn't stop it, then we will lose a very sweet man..........I call all the prayer warriors, to put Don on your list and call the powers of God's Almighty hand to be at work in his life.........
My sister is in need of prayer, for her comfort and strength as she deals with this situation.  Keep her lifted up, in Jesus Name.......... I thank you........

Lift Up

Our people in Las Vegas, NV, need to be lifted up in prayer.  Many were from other states, out there to vacation and enjoy the Country Music Festival. Why or what may have set off this attack on innocent people, is in God's hands.
Since the person who did the sad attack, is also dead, we may never know what his reasons were.  Lives were lost and many were also injured, from the gun shots sprayed down upon the crowds.  It is a sad thing to live through and experience.  May the Lord lift up the one's who are still alive and the families, of those who are gone.
God, will have to take care of the horrible things this person caused, with his comfort in the coming days.  Condolences to all who have been affected.

Great Sadness

A close friend, who is related to my sister, is sitting with her husband at a hospital, in ICU.  Hospice, is being brought in, since his health declined this morning.  She's a strong lady, but even this is hard for someone to go through.  I've been there, I know what it's like and it's very rough.
Please pray for her and him, during this awful time and in the coming months of grief.

THANK YOU LORD

Today, I look around at the world we live in and see so much turmoil.  People, are living the best way they can and those of us who have a life with the comforts on a daily basis, feel as though we are in some way sinning.  I say this because we see so many who are without a home, because of the devastating weather, recently and those who are sick from some incurable diseases.  Those whose lives have been torn to pieces, not from their own doing, but from matters out of their control.
Yes, I have my problems, and yes they are giving me unwanted stress.  Yet, I can see things going on  that make my problems, look small in comparison.  This gives me a comfort in knowing that I should be grateful for the things in my life and pray for the problems that I see nearby.  I can rest in the knowledge that the Lord, has his hand on my life and problems.  I can thank him for the goodness, he has given me, knowing that I am truly blessed.  
Today, is a good time for all of us to be thankful for the good that is in our lives, and pray for the one's less fortunate.......
