Letting Go and Let God

Image
  Sometimes we think we are wise. We make our choices based on what we think is best. Then a day of reckoning comes and we have to decide which road to take. Our own pathway or trusting God and letting someone else take the wheel.      I  have been blessed to have some miracles happen in my life, so I know that miracles do happen.  This time it is not God's hands I worry about, it is the the Medical Field I am petrified off. I know they are good people, but I have several autoimmune challenges, that makes my reaction to drugs unpredictable.  It is enough to know because of a lump that grew to the size of a ping pong ball in my breast, they are want to remove the breast and my lymph nodes, which by the way are not involved. I know they have done so many improvements to the treatments for cancer. There I said it. My sweet Hero passed because the medication they were treating him with and was working, was pulled from his treatment plan, leaving him n...

Joyful That There is a God

 Man will fail you, said my Bishop as Ned and I sat across from him to ask about the moving of our area to a different church and members we didn't know. We had never been in this situation before and we were concerned because we had only joined the church a few months before.  The loving gentle man said Brother and Sister why did you join the church?

  I have always loved this poem...  I have taught my kids, to love the person and hate the sin.  I hope I have taught them all to think for themselves, to be seeker's of truth and work as if it would save a life.

Well if they find this post they will be pleased until they go further then I may hear a phone call of mom we need to have a come to Jesus meeting... joking, but they are protective.    This morning I made a decision to keep chatting online with an unknown soldier. I know everyone tells me it is unsafe, but I feel the man is in need of a listening ear and a joke or two. I would be too if I were away from home and people were trying to kill me. I have done this before and sadly some of the soldier's I wrote to back in the 1960s, came back home and life failed them, sadly they are no longer with us. I made up my mind if I can make a difference it is worth the risk. I need to see positive come out of life. When I ...
