Have you seen GOD?

As i sat on the porch tonight i was reminded of something the preacher said today. Have you seen GOD, he went on to explain how people have seen GODS wrath and how some have seen GODS mercies.

People that know me knows the last 5 years have been very difficult for me and my family, this past week things just got a little more trying i should say. I was dxd with Lupus. I didnt know much about Lupus until i started reading online, lets just say i'm scared in the flesh, but know that GODS will shall be. He can heal me or he will provide me with the strength and courage i need to face whatever comes my way. I am not much of a blogger. i do keep my thoughts on paper but not so much for others to read, i have been known to write poetry a few times.

It just amazes me all the things i take for granted each and every day. Today i was reminded of some of these things i have been so caught up with the dxd's and the pain i was forgetting to thank GOD for the strength he has givin me to wake up and go to church today. AT my home church which is LITTLE SARAH OLD REGULAR BAPTIST CHURCH we had our foot washing which we do every year, we take the bread which represents Christ's body and the fruit of the vine which represents Christ's blood then the sisters of the church wash each others feet and the brothers of the church wash each others feet. Today my aunt Moni Sue who is very dear to my heart hugged me and said she wanted to be my first aunt to get to wash my feet . it was a blessing and a honor to wash all 3 of my aunts feet.

I just want to always remember that no matter what life deals me i can always count on someone who is always with me and that is my LORD AND SAVIOUR JESUS CHRIST. i know that when i physically fall i can call my mom and dad but there is someone else that can do what mom and dad cannot. i have had the privillagge of washing my dads feet i pray that i live long enough to wash my moms feet. I know not everyone understands the ways of the ORB church but this was the way i was raised and i have never been more satisified than i am now. I joined the church i was raised in the Church i have heard my papaw's preach many times in. I miss them. And i know that through the power of prayer anything is possible miracles happen every day. So my question today is HAVE YOU SEEN GOD? i have ....i have seen his mercy he has let me live another day to teach my girls that the way to heaven is through jesus christ. and to always rely on him for he will never lead you wrong.

Wonderful Day

Today we had a wonderful church service, it was amazing we took communion and had an old time foot washing. The most amazing thing was that i got to wash my dads feet this is something that i will never forget, this was my dads first communion service as well as mine. He joined the OLD REGULAR BAPTIST CHURCH in oct 08 and i joined in nov 08.

We had our first practice tonight which was cancelled but one little girl showed her a couple of cheers which danielle was thrilled to death about. She has been fitted for her uniform (pics will be soon )I am so proud of both of my girls . Bri for being a wonderful big sister by showing danielle all the tricks of being a cheerleader lol how to stand always smile etc.... we will be doing fundraisers to help pay for the uniform which is close to 200 dollars not counting the warm up suit she will get later.

LIFES JOURNEYS

No matter what path in life you decide to take there will always be struggles and trials. I have learned that you just need to hand things over to the one who can handle them which is Jesus Christ, I would not be here today if that were not the case because i know that i could not have made it through the last 5 years without his help. I know i could not have done this on my own strength. My strength comes from someone stronger than me.

I am thankful for so many things in my life. A family that loves me, my daughters who are my world by the way, a husband i love dearly, and friends i can lean on in time of need.

LIFE

I have learned that with every passing moment in someones life tragedy hits, a prayer is answered, a miracle happens, and someone loves you. It floors me to think about this, I mean to know that someone lovess me at all times is just amazing to me. I know that this is not new to most people and that i am slow for just now picking up on this ... lol but i never claimed to be the sharpest or brightest crayon in the box lol.

I know that no matter what the people who truly love you will always be there for you with all you have to deal with. I have also learned that people you thought would be there wont be. Like the song says unsinkable ships sink....

Well needless to say my life has been interesting these past couple of weeks. TO start things off i was in the emergency room with my baby girl (she is 6 yrs old) danielle because she swallows a nickel. I called her ped at 11pm on a saturday night. She advised me it would be safer to go have her xrayed to make sure the nickle wasnt stuck in her throat so off we went. Sat for 4 hours just to find out it had already moved where it should be. Next thing that happened was this past weekend where we almost got flooded. Now people who know where i live can understand why i would be scared. When the river raises that high that fast it is pretty scary. But thank GOD we were spared from the floods. Now today i had to take bri to see drbailey evidentally i dont know how she did it but she pulled a muscle in her back. So she is on rest for the next week or so. Just her luck, love her heart. And for those who dont know she has her first cell phone i know people think she is only 10 and doesnt need a cell phone but think about it from my point. When you find out that they find a bullet at the school where your babies go and the school is in lockdown and you live within spitting distance of the school and dont know about it. I want her to be able to call me if something happens at school without having to wait for every other kid to use the phone and if she has her own cell phone then there you go she can call me. The thing is she has learned to text i know like mother like daughter. she burns that phone up by texting and listening to ring tones lol
