Our lives can change in an instant....

Tomorrow is the 11th year of my only son's passing at the age of 28. Saturday his Maci Day visited. It was so good to see her and yet so very bitter sweet. None of us has ever gotten over his death. Maci and I laughed at the good times and cried over the bad times. We share a piece of Jamey that few share....the mother and the widow who love him so!

You are remembered in the stillness of the woods at the Quarry that you loved, and in the morning whispers of our prayers for you.....we love you Jamey, my Sonny One, we love you!

A quiet time with God is very similar to a special date. Denalyn and I like to go to the same restaurants over and over again. When we’re there we remember special moments we’ve shared before. Our hearts open up. We talk to each other. We listen, we laugh, and sometimes we cry. I love those times!

So does God. A quiet time with God is very similar to a special date. Here are some tools to help you keep your date with Him special. Select a slot in your schedule and claim it for God. Take as much time as you need. Your time with God should last long enough for you to say what you want and for God to say what he wants.

Bring an open Bible—God’s Word, his love letter to you. Bring a listening heart and listen to the lover of your soul. Make sure your date with God is on the calendar, and do everything in your power to keep it special!

God says in Romans 8:28 that “every detail in our lives of love for God is worked into something good.”

Yesterday was Caitlyn's 10th birthday we love her so :)

appreciate the love of God shown to you by others!

“Be cheerful. Keep things (your relationships) in good repair. Keep your spirits up. Think in harmony. Be agreeable. Do all that, and the God of love and peace will be with you for sure. Greet one another with a holy embrace. (2 Corinthians 13:11-12)

A trip to the Zangmeister Cancer Center to see Tim's radiologist (who is a REAL talker) and maybe a stop at the Leather Shop for him and Dick Blicks for me!

Have a wonderful day be blessed and be a blessing to someone else :)

John 14:27 Jesus says, “Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.”

Don't let fear stop you from fulfilling God's purpose for your life :)

Be brave and blessed!

Thank you Father!

James makes the same point in James 1:2 when he says, “Count it all joy when you fall into various trials, knowing that the testing of your faith produces patience. But let patience have its perfect work, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking nothing.”
