"Cooking And Looking"

                     The late evening, white moon is smiling at me. 2-18-2016 Perryton, Texas.


This moon does have facial expressions, believe me. I was needing a friendly smile today when I looked up and saw this moon. If a double click is made you can see the features of a friendly moon. Anyway it lifted my spirits while I was cooking steak outside on the grill. The evening was very nice, just a little windy. I also made hot rolls, and a loaf of bread. The boys and I did enjoy our dinner.  I had steak left over so meat for tomorrow is waiting in the frig.

I enjoyed a long conversation today with a friend in another city. We mostly talked about politics, since it seems like that is about all we can hear on the TV. I hope I can live till November just so I can see the end of this long, exciting novel. I don’t know what I will do for pass time after that. Probably will be praying for safety for myself and my family. I just don’t feel like it is going to be very smooth sailing from now on. I can already tell that my faith is being tested more and more each day. But the Lord said He would not put more on us than we were able to bear. That is a great heap of faith to fight for also. We have to keep remembering those words. I am more thankful every day for the peace and comfort of my home. I have two of my sons with me again just like when they were growing up. Sometimes I still see the “little boy” in them. I have another son, and a daughter that I wish I could have back with me also. They are younger, and when they retire maybe I can be close to them. The grand children are all busy making a life of their own. I am sure I won’t live till they retire, but I hold them up before God each night and ask Him to bless them. I am so proud of my family and thank God for each and everyone of them.

I do feel bad tonight when I think about tearing up a would-be-mother rabbit’s delivery room today. She had formed a hole down in the asparagus  stalks that I failed to cut down this past fall. She ran away when I got close to the bed, but I had to cut down the old stalks and get ready for new growth. I saw that she hadn’t had her babies yet, but she will definitely have to find another place to deliver. And I think I have it hard sometimes! It is even the little animals around me, along with the sun, and the moon that gives me courage to keep going on. We are all God’s creation, and He supplies are every need. I have another story to tell about a young bird that got trapped in my patio this week, but I will tell it later.

God Bless

"A Walking Miracle"

Rick Sharp getting ready to leave for a Dr. appt. in Amarillo, Texas. 2-17-2016 Perryton, Texas.
I have posted a picture of my son, Rick, three months after the doctor told me there was nothing else they could do for him, and I could take him home. This was one day after the doctor told me I couldn’t take him home, because he needed to see a doctor every day. After the rehab searched for two days to find a place to put Rick with no success, the doctor said, “take him home, we can’t do anything else for him. The 6’1’’, 165 pound normal weight frame, had fallen to 120 pounds. He didn’t have enough strength to turn himself over in bed. Two nurses managed to get him in the back seat of my car lying him down on the seat. He was quiet all the 130 miles home, and I wondered if he would be alive when we arrived. My oldest son, Chuck, was waiting at my house with a wheel chair to help get him in the house. We had refused help, and wanted to do it all by ourselves. I am thankful for the help of God when lifting, and tugging on a near lifeless body. We got him in the wheelchair, and lifted the entire chair up three steps on the porch. I was still recovering from a badly sprained back from lifting on him before. My problem also was helped greatly by God’s mercy. I was able to endure pain, both physically, and mentally, while I promised God to do His will. I asked God to help me to help Rick to recover if it be His will. Rick had refused food for over three weeks. He only wanted to sleep all the time. Home health  nurses had been arranged by the doctor to come to the house to help me, but I refused. I wanted to be alone with him when he passed on. I had Chuck to help me, and I knew God would help me with the more serious problems. Example, God made Rick open his mouth when I offered him a teaspoon full of ensure. At first I could get only two to three spoonfuls down, but little by little he started taking more. Then shortly I realized God was wanting to heal him. Rick’s attitude changed, and he began to show strength that I thought was impossible. The nightmare ended within a week. I was able to sleep in my own bed, and know that Rick would be alright. His mind had returned to normal, and he knew what he could do, and what he couldn’t. He did some amazing things with those bones.

This time of recovering has happened after nearly two months of previous hospitalization with serious issues. Some members of my family disowned me for not leaving Rick to die alone. They told me to take care of it by myself. They did not know that God was not going to disown me. I was blessed with some family members, and friends who were so loving and kind to me. At this time Rick has a positive outlook on life, and is doing very well. I don’t know what the future holds for him, but neither does anyone know what their future holds. At this time I am also strong, and have a positive outlook on life, but only God knows my future. I am on this planet for His service only. Whatever He has for me to do, I will accept without regret. I give this testimony for one reason only. Never give up on God, for He will never give up on you. “Not my will, but Thine be done.”

God Bless

"Greater Than Life Its Self Is The Will Of God"

A little hard to see, but many jets were traveling the skies this morning under this gorgeous sun. The sky was full of white streaks from jets. 2-16-2016 Perryton, Texas.

A sign of “hurry, hurry, we must get there quickly” was evident this morning when I looked up and saw jet streaks going across the sky in droves. I believe something bigger, and more serious is happening that most people would not aspire to. Their thought is, “we will cross that bridge when we get there.”  Of course there is not a lot any of us little people can do to stop the out-of-control evil that has filled our Great America, but even a word or two of warning sent by means of internet, postal service, word by mouth in public places, and of course running away from the very appearance of evil can speak volumes. I want to be counted as one of those who did everything in their power to stand up for American principal’s. I applaud those who are letting their name be used to expose a crime that could bring them death also. Many good American’s have died trying to live honest, and expose those who are not. The heart-stopper pill, or a pinch of crystal  is becoming more and more popular among those who have learned the secret to destroy a powerful individual of justice. There is an old saying, “the wheels of justice turn slowly, but they do turn.”
I am praying for you, brother, and sister, who are using every ounce of wisdom you can gather to bring to justice those who are part of the evil army trying to destroy America. You do not know me or many others like me, but never doubt that your God, and our God is hearing every word going up in your behalf. Your reward is set in stone in earth, and in heaven. Millions of prayer warriors are worth more than trillions of evil doers. With the natural eye America looks very weak, and overshadowed by evil, but there is one waiting in the balance who can uncover the mountains of dirt and trash and make the wind so strong that nothing sleazy will remain. I hope this miraculous one can be put in place before many more good people have to die however, that may not be possible. God is in control, and whatever He wills is the perfect victory for American, the Christian nation ordained by His Great power.

I believe God is speaking giving one more chance to those whom have failed Him, and have even helped the enemy to gain more control of our country. I also believe this is the last chance for many. Either wake up, or be condemned forever more. God is a just God, and He has given everyone a second chance; But He is also a God of anger and will not be mocked for long.

No doubt the jets were doing business as usual this morning, but the business has doubled, and for some reason it is becoming obvious.  Men and women are running to and fro trying to hold onto a weakened country, and restore its greatness. Will you be a help, and join them in taking the American flag everywhere you go? 

God Bless

     A touch of beauty in the sky. A scene from my back yard. 2-14-2016 Perryton, Texas.          
Tis so sweet to trust in Jesus and His beauty. 2-14-2016 Perryton, Texas.

A last minute glimpse of the sun setting finished my good day. This valentine day has made me happy. I saw so many different ones buying live flowers for their special ones when I went to the grocery store this evening. The smiles on their faces made me recognize the importance a loved one meant to them. I had to smile too at the love pouring from those hearts. The stores floral nursery was greatly expanded this year, I didn’t know why, but it seemed as if everyone was buying flowers. I never saw much candy floating around. I was especially impressed when I saw young boys carrying out big bouquets making every step fast and joyful. I wanted to go and hug them for their sweetness to their girl friends. I, myself was thinking of the many times my husband gave me flowers or candy for valentine day. Those are times that will never be forgotten. I don’t believe a man ever loved his wife more than mine loved me. Yet I know he was not perfect. I thank God for the 63 years I had with my husband.

Then there were the sad times during the day when I felt so guilty for not showing more love to those whom are still with me now. Most are many miles away, but I could show more love if I tried. Too many are the excuses that do nothing but make us cry. One of my greatest desires is to be more open with my love to others. I know if a dog bites you its hard to give them a pat and say, “I love you,” but I believe that is what God told us to do. Our loved ones are not our enemies. They are our heartbeat. If God told us to love our enemies, how much more are we suppose to love those that love us, even though they don’t always act like it? None of us can ever lose that love once its made. We just have to fight and hurt in every way possible trying to show we are right and they are wrong. “God forbid.” That is a sin that has been around forever, and will remain until we are taken out of these old mortal bodies and transported to heaven. Can anyone imagine the feeling of having no more anger or vengeance against anyone who has wronged us. What a wonderful place heaven must be. I know we all have to uphold our respectable places in life. We cannot be slammed against disgraceful, untruthful, walls like mud balls, but neither can we stop that kind of hatred by removing ourselves from their sight. We must each and everyone of us pray daily for a miracle of forgiveness, and forgetfulness, for ourselves and for others. A miracle it must be, because we are still in the flesh and the flesh is weak. “The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak.” Matthew 26:41.
