I just finished FaceTime with my grandson who is 5 years old today.....impossible! It seems like yesterday that I arrived in Manhattan to see his precious newborn face @Mt Sinai :) and that was 2 brothers ago.....it so reminds me of my house when my 4 were little....poetic bedlam...

Children and grandchildren are my biggest blessings from God.....

Happy Birthday Ciarnan we love you bunches!

Congratulations President Obama

..you and your family are in my thoughts and my prayers!

To quote the President "We  rise or fall together as one people"

Jesus said, “I am the good shepherd; I know my sheep and my sheep know me—just as the Father knows me and I know the Father—and I lay down my life for the sheep. John 10:14-15”

Everything is in Godly order..... preordained before the earth began. Nothing happens without His knowledge and without His planning. Praise be to God!

Psalm 100:3 says, “Know that the Lord is God. It is he who made us, and we are his; we are his people, the sheep of his pasture.”

Behold a hero of the west.  A thousand head of cattle pass behind him. He needs no one.  He’s a cowboy.  The American hero.

Behold a hero in the Bible:  the shepherd.  He too is rugged.  Like the cowboy he makes his roof the stars and the pasture his home.

But that’s where the similarities end. The shepherd loves his sheep.  The cowboy leads the cow to slaughter.  The cowboy drives the cattle.  The shepherd leads the sheep. The shepherd calls each sheep by name.  Aren’t we glad Christ didn’t call Himself the Good Cowboy?

Psalm 100:3 says,  “Know that the Lord is God.  It is he who made us, and we are his; we are his people, the sheep of his pasture.”

We don’t need a cowboy to herd us.  We need a shepherd.  A shepherd to care for us and to guide us.  And we have One.  One who knows us by name.

Say hello to Grandma and Grandpa Huber for us!

The Holy Spirit is the heart of God revealed to man

John 14:17 says, “The world cannot accept him, because it does not see him or know him.  But you know him, because he lives with you and he will be in you.”

We can  accomplish much in this life by using our intellect and physical work, others may or may not appreciate it, so be it....but the words or actions that we do in the  name of the Father that makes others feel  unimportant  or without hope breaks His heart.......for He is God's love manifested to man through you!

Isaiah said: The good men perish; the godly die before their time and no one seems to care or wonder why.  No one seems to realize that God is taking them away from the evil days ahead.  For the godly who die will rest in peace. Isaiah 57:1”
