Fun Friday ,Have a GREAT weekend !




This is a letter from Grandma. She is eighty-eight years old and still drives her own car. She writes:



Dear Grand-daughter,



The other day I went up to our local Christian book store and saw a 'Honk if

you love Jesus' bumper sticker.



I was feeling particularly sassy that day because I had just come from a

thrilling choir performance, followed by a thunderous prayer meeting.



So, I bought the sticker and put it on my bumper.



Boy, am I glad I did; what an uplifting experience followed.



I was stopped at a red light at a busy intersection, just lost in thought

about the Lord and how good he is, and I didn't notice that the light had

changed.



It is a good thing someone else loves Jesus because if he hadn't honked, I'd

never have noticed.



I found that lots of people love Jesus!



While I was sitting there, the guy behind started honking like crazy, and

then he leaned out of his window and screamed, 'For the love of God!'

'Go! Go! Go! Jesus Christ, GO!'



What an exuberant cheerleader he was for Jesus!



Everyone started honking!



I just leaned out my window and started waving and smiling at all those

loving people.



I even honked my horn a few times to share in the love!



There must have been a man from Florida back there because I heard him

yelling something about a sunny beach.



I saw another guy waving in a funny way with only his middle finger stuck up

in the air.



I asked my teenage grandson in the back seat what that meant.

He said it was probably a Hawaiian good luck sign or something.



Well, I have never met anyone from Hawaii , so I leaned out the window and

gave him the good luck sign right back..



My grandson burst out laughing. Why, even he was enjoying this religious experience!!



A couple of the people were so caught up in the joy of the moment that they

got out of their cars and started walking towards me.



I bet they wanted to pray or ask what church I attended, but this is when I

noticed the light had changed.



So, grinning, I waved good bye to all those brothers and sisters, and drove on through the intersection.



I noticed that I was the only car that got through the intersection before

the light changed again and felt kind of sad that I had to leave them after

all the love we had shared.



So I slowed the car down, leaned out the window and gave them all the

Hawaiian good luck sign one last time as I drove away. Praise the Lord for

such wonderful folks!!



Will write again soon,



Love, Grandma



NEW PIECES COMING SOON !

SPRING !!



It has finally arrived WOOHOO !! We have waited so long for this day and I believe it is well deserved this year it was COLD !!So here is to Spring!




A Prayer in Spring
gif
Robert Frost (1915)
clr gif

Oh, give us pleasure in the flowers to-day;
And give us not to think so far away
As the uncertain harvest; keep us here
All simply in the springing of the year.

Oh, give us pleasure in the orchard white,
Like nothing else by day, like ghosts by night;
And make us happy in the happy bees,
The swarm dilating round the perfect trees.

And make us happy in the darting bird
That suddenly above the bees is heard,
The meteor that thrusts in with needle bill,
And off a blossom in mid air stands still.

For this is love and nothing else is love,
The which it is reserved for God above
To sanctify to what far ends He will,
But which it only needs that we fulfil.

HAPPY ST. PATTIES DAY !


Well it that time of year when a touch of the green is here !Not just spring but St. Patties day ,and we are blessed with the luck of the Irish .
As i went out to do a little spring clean up,I could see the flowers starting to push through the dirt,and I saw a beautiful rainbow ,how nice it was to see .

It happen that the rainbow ended right in my yard ,and would you believe I found this right by the fence.

As I made my way towards the potted surprise,I seen a green streak cross my path .
Low and behold something was making away with my potted surprise.
I had to blink twice to make sure of what I was seeing .

This little green devil was taking my gift from heaven.Good thing I thought quick ,before he could blink I snatched him up,and covered him tightly.I might list him on e-bay you think I will get a good price.

Well now that I left you with a little blarney ..lol enjoy your St. Patties day !

In their shoes !


I have a friend who sons is in the Army and has already done four tours of duty .
My question is how many tours do the young men and woman have to do before we can say that is enough !

He has been called back for a fifth tour and the stress is too much for his family .
His father has had two strokes because of the stress. His Mother has had fallen in to deep depression because of the worry,and he himself is starting to show signs of war fatigue.

He hasn't been deployed yet because he is waiting for his child to be born ,he has to leave right after .
There are many families that have these same troubles and still my question is how much is enough .
Are we going to end up with another generation of solders that will be ruined for life.
The scars from war last a life time,that is even if they make it home, to have a life .
As an American I am proud of our people in uniform and the GREAT job they have done in keeping our country safe.
Isn't it time to say enough is enough and let our troops come home while they still can .

Mothers that spend days wondering if the sons and daughters will come home .
Wives crying at night over husbands that are not there.
Babies growing up without knowing daddy ,only a picture,or a voice on the phone.
These families are suffering as much as the troops ,they live it everyday .

What do we do as a people for all who have suffered ?
Stand behind them all the way,support their families in what they need ,and pray to GOD that this war ends soon so they can all come home !
For you MEL !

WE NEED TO STOP THE ABUSE !


When are we as woman going to stand up and fight !! DAM IT I"M SO ANGRY !!
Things have come such a small way when we talk about protecting woman and children from the abuse of men,or I should say SCUM BAGS !,and in this day and age it is still allowed to happen. Just because we ware their ring doesn't give them the right to abuse us.

Things need to change and more quickly.The laws need to be tougher,on these bastards.

I have seen my sister-in-law live and die in an abusive marriage ,and now I see it happening to my best friend .I can't stand by and watch this happen to another person I love and care for.

How can we call ourselves Human beings and let this happen each and everyday to woman and children all over the world ,SHAME ON US .
Just because it isn't happening to us ,doesn't mean it isn't up to us to fix it .

Please join the fight any way you can.
