Call to Me, and I will answer you, and show you great and mighty things.
Jeremiah 33:3

"God is faithful to His Word, even though He does not always do what we ask."
John Bisagno

Boo Thought: Life is a process and there are some awesome outcomes with "three parters". Peanut butter, jelly and soft bread. Squat, tuck and roll=forward roll. Shuffle, ball, change (tap dancing).

Jeremiah 33 reverberates God's three part instructions for us on the steps to take to see great and mighty things. Call, get an answer and see!

Today is the first day of school and I am having my class make a stop sign. I want to pray today for all of us to stop, look and listen to God.

Let's Pray: Father, Jesus came as "the man", but you are so much more than that. We recognize Lord, that when we do not take time to "stop" from our business and be with you we miss out on what You have planned for the day. We pray and pray and pray, but often forget to open the love letter and instruction guide You have written for us and gain encouragement and knowledge from the Bible....may we open it today. And lastly God, make us good listeners. While others disappoint us and lead us into temptation, You will always guide us towards good!

Here we are Father, calling, waiting for answers and to see great and mighty things. In Jesus Name, Amen

She Fought the Good Fight

February 27 Bible Gateway's verse yesterday was: This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him . 1 John 4:9 A fitting verse for the day my everyday friend, soul sister, monster of the faith and mischievous partner in crime, Kaye, left this world behind and headed to her heavenly home. My husband was able to be by her bedside and said he knew she heard the words of our faith that he shared. Her sweet daughter held the phone up to her ear so I could say good-bye and the brightest single star you have ever seen shown through my bedroom window as she exited this earth! Yesterday, my heart literally ached so badly that I told the Lord, "Take me too!" Wouldn't she have been surprised if I had snuck up on her in heaven and said, "Thought you were going somewhere without me, did ya." When we received the call she was ready to go, I called out to the Lord for comfort and He led me to the Bible Gat...

Toe Sucking

June 13 If I keep my eyes on God, I won't trip over my own feet. Psalm 25:12 …or allow them to be sucked off by carp!  For as long as I've been on this lake (49 years) we've gone to feed the carp at various marinas.   I have a bag of old bread waiting to be tossed to the carp tomorrow by our grandchildren!   There's a new adventure at a couple of the marinas.  Toe sucking!   For 25 cents you can buy a small scoop of peanut butter to go on your toes. Then the carp suck it off!   I just got a pedicure, so I have an excuse not to participate! What we do need to participate in is keeping our feet on the paths the Lord sets before us. Give careful though to the paths for your feet and be steadfast in all your ways. Proverbs 4:26

Remember Your Story

Our oldest granddaughter made this bouquet and hand painted card for me.💖 Nothing touches our lives that God doesn't allow.  He has a plan and a purpose, sometimes far into the future, that can be used for His glory. (Jeremiah 29:11) Flash back 40 years and I approached life's downs with an "I can't believe this is happening." and truth be told "How can I fix it?" attitude.   Now that I am older and wiser I see that God truly works all things together for good for those who are called according to His purpose.  (Romans 8:28) I thank God for the stroke 8 years ago and how it mellowed me out (okay some of you are laughing, but it really did). And honestly,  I like getting old. Sure, there are regrets, but there is also value in being able to pass along the wisdom learned from those regrets. God CAN use everything for His good. Mentoring moments are what I feel called to at this stage of life.  Working on a talk for a women's retreat weekend, I came ac...
