Jean's Comment's: "This Grain Of Sand Is Acting Big"

"This Grain Of Sand Is Acting Big"
The little girl in me is
having fun trying to solve mysteries. I truly believe the yellow
writing on top of this wedding cake flower says, “I love you.” It
was my sweetheart's message to me for the day. I hope he finds one in
his flower garden that says, “I love you too.” I have so much
time on hand now to smell the roses, and look for messages that
didn't come through the mail. What fun it is to be free from hard
work every day, and watch the clock tick. I am never late for any
appointment, or time agreement to meet someone for going out. If you
are still young you really have something to look forward to. The
golden in the Golden Years spelled backwards spells nedlog. Yes we
are having fun, but we need a log to jot things down on. The first
laugh I had today at the Center happened before I even got my food.
This handsome man tried to say I was breaking the line, and he was
five feet behind his wife talking to another guy. He insisted that I
go ahead of him, but I grabbed his arm and said “get your butt up
here.” I told him that was my first laugh since I had arrived, but
it sure wouldn't be the last. Oh! How I love those retardo's. We are
living in the best part of our lives. I thank God for keeping us
young.
Since I don't have a house
keeper I do need to wash dishes, and run the sweeper, but I'm in no
hurry. I am my own boss now, and have been for the past five years.
At first I didn't like it, but it gets better every day. Of course I
had to train myself. I cannot stand to let my house or yard go
undone. I just don't always have to do it right now. I've always been
known for having lots of patience. However, I do have trouble
sticking to a healthy diet. I don't like it when I gain a few extra
pounds. I like to hear my doctor say, “you're doing excellent”
when I go for my annual check-up. I just heard those words last
month. I know that is because I have learned just how big God is.
If anyone is wondering
about how big, and how great God is, here is the description that the
prophet Isaiah gave of Him. Chapter 40:12. Who hath measured the
waters in the hollow of His hand, and meted out heaven with the span,
and comprehended the dust of the earth in a measure, and weighed the
mountains in scales, and the hills in a balance? This is only one
verse of many that Isaiah has asked, “how big is God.” We need to
read these words often, and let them really sink in. They will surly
make us feel smaller than a grain of sand. They will surly make us
want to hide behind the cross.
God Bless

"The Wedding Cake Flower"
I had a nice time at Senior Citizen's today. There was a good crowd and the board met after lunch. The Center is making plans to take a group to the Amphitheater in Palo Duro Canyon at Canyon Texas to watch the play “TEXAS.”That is a good show but I've seen it several times. My youngest son played in that show when he was 13. To those who have not seen this play I'm sure you would enjoy it. Several things of interest are being discussed at the Center with intentions of adding more entertainment for the Senior group. I'm looking forward to doing more than just eating, and going home. We need to spend more time together.
On another note we as Americans need to get rid of a lot of hoodlums, and their supporters. We need to restore law and order. I believe we are making a lot of headway, but we have a long way yet to go. Some of the main hoodlums are still in power today. I cannot understand how they could be. It is going to take an act of God to fix the mess we're in. I am ready now for that to happen. I would hate to be out of touch of God at this time. Because when God has had enough He will use the same destructiveness that he used on Sodom and Gomorrah. People in those days wouldn't listen to God, and some won't listen today. A fool's mind is to be pitied, but it cannot be changed. Let us all brace ourselves for what may be ahead. Let us keep our passports up to date for “in such an hour as you think not the Son of Man cometh.” Not everyone will get to go. Only those who were waiting and watching for Him. “Hear ye the Word of God.”

Jean's Comment's: "This Rose Is For You"

"This Rose Is For You"
.
I was searching for
something beautiful yesterday, and found this lovely rose hidden
behind an almost bare bush close to the house. This late in the
summer there isn't must beauty left in my yard, but I will keep
looking because I like beauty too much to settle for anything less.
Sometimes we are suddenly surprised at a beauty we happen to see in
someone, or some thing, that we hadn't seen before. That is why we
need to always be looking for that one awesome trait of beauty that
is sometimes hidden to the eye. We so often preconceive our dislikes
before thoroughly searching the bush. We don't need to go to the
extent of getting stuck with thorns, but patience is painless if we
dare to use some. This one lovely rose was the only thing on a group
of bushes that was nothing but leaves, and a few tiny, half dead,
mixed breed roses. Nothing of interest was worth a second glance, but
I was looking for something beautiful, and I found it.
I will strive to be
patient the rest of my life. I will try hard not to discard any hope
I may have for finding beauty in someone I had though to be ruthless
in many ways. There is a song with these words that I have always
liked. “I overlooked an orchid while searching for a rose.” With
all the choices we have in life this statement could be applied to
most of us. That is why we need to look deeply into the hidden parts
of humanity to discover the best of the nature of that creation. “God
has created all things, as for the pleasure He has created, God has
created all things.” If I fail to find beauty in some, I will not
say it's not there. I will say I found it not because God hid it
from me, but not until I had used lots of patience, and said many
prayers. After all God is the one who hid the Easter eggs. The hunter
doesn't always find them all.
Why did I wake up at 3:30
this morning and could not go back to sleep? Why did I get up at 5:30
and turn on the coffee pot? Why did I start writing this blog at 6:00
? All because God led me to do these things. He may be using me to be
that hidden rose someone has overlooked in their own rose bush. I am
simply saying, don't walk away and vow to never come back to that
ruthless one whom you just might have overlooked a beautiful rose on.
Sometimes we may have to look several times before we find it. Until
the last limb is dead don't cut the bushes back. They might not come
back next year, so be gentle with your trimming. “Lord let me be
the one to receive the most from these words.”
God Bless
