Moving Day



So here we go again Eddy and I are empty nester's again............



We got home last night and watched the Rangers Game(I do have to say they just out right took it from the Yankees) and it was sooooo quiet. No baby crying or voices upstairs , just the noise from the TV. Both my girls are gone now but they still have a place here whenever they need it. It's nice to see how well they get along . They really have come in to their own and are starting a new season in their lives . I pray daily that God will put a safety net around both of them and their families. I will have to admit I miss seeing Elias's smiling face when I walk in the door. The great thing about this is they are not to far away and they need a babysitter from time to time.(lucky me)

Here are some recent pictures, enjoy!!!!

Somber

Somber
This comes to my mind in how I am feeling right now.
(Somb'ber a. 1. dark and gloomy 2. sad Webster's Dictionary)

I know usually I don't like writing sad and gloomy thoughts but right now I feel that way. Don't get me wrong I am thanking God for each and every feeling I have because it is him who gives me hope and I thank Him for loving me when sometimes I don't feel loved.....It is through our trials that we are strengthened in our FAITH...The only thing is to first get through whatever you are going through and then recognize this was a good thing.

Don't feel sorry for me I am not writing this for any one to say anything I am releasing this because I truly want to let it go.

I love you and I am sorry for my part!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Psalm 25

This last weekend I visited a church . I haven't been going to my church because I work there.
I try and justify the fact that I am there so I feel like I don't have to go when I am off ,that is an excuse and just plain selfish on my part. I think I spend so much time there that I don't want to spend my time off there as well. For that I am truely sorry and I have suffered because of that. This weekend showed me that.


The Pastor preached on Luke 7 :35- 50



Alabaster Box





There was this women that heard Jesus was going to be at Simon's house. Everyon made fun of her , she was as they called a prostitue. She knew how everyone felt about her but didn't care, she wanted to see Jesus so she showed up . When she saw Him she knelt at his feet ,her warm tears dropped one by one onto His feet. This public act was looked upon as disgraceful for a women of her day.Simon the host denounced Jesus and questioned the "Prophet's" integrity for allowing such a women of such a notorious reputation to touch and disgrace him. While the Pharisees looked outward to the woman's appearance Jesus looks at her heart ,as he does all of us. I know that I am grateful Jesus loves me even though I can be difficult, unlovable and just plain selfish......I am grateful for this weekend for so many reasons. He shows me that I am loved and that all I have to do is turn around and see He is right there for me. I knew all this but I guess I just had to be reminded. We have a loving God someone that in spite of us loves us anyway.











So now as I was listening to the radio Psalm 25 was mentioned. I came back to my room and read it over and over again and cried like a baby. The enemy wants to rob us of our joy but I won't let him. "To you O lord I lift up my soul in you I trust, O my God ...........





So through all of the trials in our lives and all those bumps in the road trust that God is right there for us. He will get us through all those tough times when we feel like there is no where to turn............











Show me your ways, O Lord teach me your paths......It's always through these tough times that that our Faith is strengthened





I thank God for all that He reveals and all that he allows us to go through to get us where He wants us.....


Thank You Lord for loving me and saving me over and over again !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
