His Throne

Your throne, O God, is forever and ever; a scepter of uprightness is the scepter of Your kingdom. Psalm 45:6 --- The sky may be absolutely black; the wind may be howling; we may be wondering if we will ever get home...yet we can rest in Him. God never leaves His throne. - Kay Arthur

Protected By God

I will lift up my eyes to the mountains; from where shall my help come? My help comes from the Lord, who made heaven and earth. He will not allow your foot to slip; He who keeps you will not slumber. Psalm 121:1-3

Annie & Bek

You girls feel my heart with Joy

I'm an Official Blogger

Well, here we go. I am official...I am now a "blogger"! I don't quite know what this will turn out to be, but I am excited for what is ahead. Thank you Laura for sharing your excitement and for getting me started. And for those fellow caregivers, yes it is official...we are off and running or should I say crawling. We will see how it goes.

Poems

It’s sometimes very difficult for us to understand the wisdom and the love behind the things that God has planned.

But we wouldn’t have the rainbow if we didn’t have the rain; We wouldn’t know the pleasure if we never tasted pain.

We wouldn’t love the sunrise if we hadn’t felt the night; And we wouldn’t know our weakness if we hadn’t sensed God’s might.

We couldn’t have the springtime or the yellow daffodil if we hadn’t experienced the winter’s frosty chill.

And though the brilliant sunshine is something God has made. He knew too much could parch our souls so He created shade.

So God’s given us a balance: enough joys to keep us glad, enough tears to keep us humble, enough good to balance bad.

And if you’ll trust in Him you’ll see though yesterday brought sorrow, the clouds will part and dawn will bring a happier tomorrow.

"THE MOST BEAUTIFUL RAINBOW"
As we grow up, we learn that even the one person that wasn't supposed to ever let you down probably will. You will have your heart broken probably more than once and it's harder every time. You'll break hearts too, so remember how it felt when yours was broken. You'll fight with your best friend. You'll blame a new love for things an old one did. You'll cry because time is passing too fast, and you'll eventually lose someone you love. So take too many pictures, laugh too much, and love like you've never been hurt because every sixty seconds you spend upset is a minute of happiness you'll never get back. Don't be afraid that your life will end, be afraid that it will never begin.
