Pictures of Tragady

We are living in a world that is starved for meaningful relationships, Genuine relationships. I'm ready to be a vessel and pour out the gift of love..... compassion..... and servant hood. We are all longing for.

My heart is broken for an 8 year-old little girl, that is bearing a burden
that she has absolutely no control over. A syndrome that is associated with exclamation of obscene words or socially inappropriate and derogatory remarks. This child is not of a age that she can easily comprehend why she lashes out?
And my heart is ripped at the core, thinking of all the emotions she is feeling right now. Depression is a direct result of this syndrome known as tourettes. I see this child's pain and I'm thankful to our Abba Father, that this child's attempt to end her life was unsuccessful.

To be surrounded by so many people, that just shuffle by and kindly smile, but never really see the wounds. My mistake has been following the crowd. Ignoring the heart inside of me that is speaking so LOUD. God is gently encouraging me to exercise the muscles of my faith. To use me by showing others. I was given this Scripture yesterday.

1 Timothy 4:12

Be an example to the believers in word, in conduct, in love, in spirit, in
faith , in purity.


My heart is beating strongly to share with you the words of a song I learned three years ago.This song express LOVE....Grace and Faith.

PICTURES OF TRAGEDY

When I see pictures of tragedy
don't let it get old to me
when I see hunger and poverty
don't let it get old to me
when I see pictures of tragedy
don't let it get old to me
Repeat
Let my heart be broken
give me eyes of compassion
don't let my hunger diminish..
but let me finish strong..
I wanna here you say to me
Well Done
When I see Hatred and Jealousy don't
let it get old to me
when I see shattered integrity
don't let it get old to me
Repeat
Let my heart be broken
give me eyes of compassion don't let
my hunger diminish let me finish strong
I wanna here you say to me Well Done
Let my heart be broken
give me eyes of compassion
I wanna here you say to me well done
Well done the good and faithful one
When I see pictures of tragedy
don't let it get old to me

I want to carry out the mission I received from the Lord Jesus - the mission of testifying to the GOOD NEWS OF GOD'S KINDNESS

Problems

I feel terrible that I've not posted anything to my blog in months.
I guess the reason for that is............. I should'nt make excuses.
I'm just sorry that I've gotten so busy that I put off doing something that I enjoy. I know that this post is short. I'm just trying to clean off all the cobwebs from my keyboard. I'll have more to come soon.....

The happiest people in the world are not those who have no problems,
but the people who have learned to live with things that are less then perfect.

No one has ever seen God; but if we love one another, God lives in us and His love is made complete in us." 1 John 4:10-12

Happy New Year!!!!!

Happy New Year Everyone!
Okay according to some friends of mine, I guess I don't blog enough? So here I go!!
Woke up this morning haveing made a promise to take my children Ice Skating! So the plan was to clean before we left.......................so yeah we cleaned, however it seemed like every two minutes Callie was saying is it time to Ice Skate yet???
Well we all had a blast at the rink!! I'm quite certain that 80's fashion is making a come back in the Iowa City Area!
After skating our hearts out, & two blisters on the backs of my heals I can say it was worth the pain! Cole often surprises me with his ability to mentor & help his little sister! As we were walking into the mall Cole was so uncomfortable that his little sister was escorting her Princess build-a-bear in a stroller in full Ice Skating costume to the Rink with us! As the day progressed Cole was willing & enjoyed holding Callie's hand as we skated around the Ice! That was Awsome! I had a wonderful day today!
I just painted my bathroom 4 months ago, after visiting a few chabby chic store's I've decided it's time for my bathroom to get a makeover for the New Year! So i'd better stop blogging & try to do something constructive!

welcoming puppy # 1, with eleven more that followed
She has proven once again to be a INCREDIBLE mother. With her carrying such a large litter two of her pups were stillborn.
However the rest are all nursing & thriving well! I can't believe they are 3 weeks old already!

Boy's Gone Wild!!!


Okay..... Cole had a few buddies over, so of course I'm always humored by some of there ramblings! However nothing prepared me to see what i awoke to this morning?? Shane was leaving for work at 5:00 a.m., he really thought i needed to look in on the boys before laying back down. So as i approached my living room floor covered in boys............... much to my surprise was the amount of artwork on there sleeping faces! However out of the four two were missing artwork? This mystery only meant one thing, That it was Mom's turn to finish the project!!! Cole was missing any trace of markings, so i added some to his sleepy face. I believe he was surprised to be on the other end of the Joke!! It was priceless!! And well the other boy, he was much to sensitive to be tricked
