Black Friday

Today’s news
It’s hard to Breathe today.

It’s hard to breath when you know that someone you love is leaving or has left this life.  It’s hard not to weep, it’s hard to not be filled with thoughts about everyone who She has touched in her life time. It’s hard not to think about how much you love her and how much she has blessed your life and how amazing you think her life has been in your eyes.  Grandma Vela my grandma is about to leave her cursed body behind. I’m glad of this at least, it’s hard to see her struggle with the pain that is inflicting her hard to see her so bound by this body that is failing her that has stopped working.  

Today I remember the fear in her eyes as I sat with her in her hospital bed, this past weekend and I remembered something she would say to me over and over again, “if it weren’t for Jesus Christ I would not have gotten through this life.”  I never really saw her fear growing up, I know it was there though, and now I see more clearly how much Our Heavenly Father has been my Grandma’s help and courage when she has faced the hardest parts of this life.  I can see Him now calling her home.  Even now he as sent his angels to sing to her as she goes through this death.  I love her my Grandma, and I will miss her.  But I do not weep without hope that I will see her again in the next life!

Before I left the hospital on Sunday, I bent down and hugged her and kissed her, I whispered to her that I hoped and prayed she could go home soon.  Part of me hoped and prayed that it might be her earthly home, but I see now that it was her heavenly home that I was hoping and praying for.  She is going to be well soon! 

Please pray for us my family as we walk through this and are even now waiting for her to leave, all her Children will be with her tomorrow I hope.  I pray!

It’s About Listening.

Today’s news First things first! It’s Monday morning, the beginning of the work week. It’s another start to something.  Our life is full of starts and finishes. We start a new week, we start a new weekend, we start a new day, we start a new pot of coffee =0), we start a new load of laundry and so on and so forth. With all these starts there are a whole lot of opportunities to add a conversation, a prayer to our God.  I love this idea, in all the starts of each day, that I would acknowledge Him and lift a prayer or remember something He has said in His word. Or, in that moment of start I could worship Him or thank Him. I’m going to challenge myself with this, and I’m going to challenge all of you to the same, and remember there are always new places to start this challenge.  A nourished life is one that starts by putting ones self into a position to listen to what our God and Creator has to say.  And, we are able to stand  before our holy righteous God because of His Son, who w

“Be still and Know that He is God”

Today’s news Voices In My Head. Ok I’m not crazy here, but there are very three distinct voices in my mind/head on a regular basis.  Our world especially this scientific culture that I live in would say there is something wrong with my brain.  I have heard these voices very distinct voices as far back in my life as 2 years old.  My voice, God’s voice, and the one that lies, the one that says I don’t measure up.  The one that says I need this that or the other to be happy or fulfilled.   I haven’t always understood the distinction between the voices, the reason for that is sometimes the voices sound like three or fifty voices blaring in my head at the top of their lungs screaming for my attenchen the loud ones are usually the lies it is in those times that it becomes very hard to distinguish the three voices.  My voice gets confused.   Here is the thing though, and I am not writing this from a I know it all perspective, because I don’t! I am also not writing this saying t
