With Facebook I got away from blogging plus alot has happen since I last posted 6 years ago. I was on retreat this weekend and my pastor asked If we knew we wouldn't fail what would we do tomorrow and I didn't have an answer. This morning as I was doing my quite time it came to me maybe it was time to start this blog again and use it to share reflection on my walk with him. This would be my walk and while I would love to have others comments on what he is doing in my life I want people to be respective of the fact this is what he is telling me and I may not be in the same place in my walk with him as you are in yours. I will also be respective of your feelings and thoughts. I guess I kinda want it to be my extentsion of BSF where we have discussion about things God has revealed to each other with out aruging about it. What you get out of scripture maybe different from what he is telling me; doesn't mean it is wrong just that he is revealing different things in our lives.
Since right now noone knows about this blog I don't expect any comments on this post and it might be a while before anyone even realizes it is here. We will just have to see where God leads me on this path.

Well it has been over a year since I blogged and my life has been very hectic just like everyone elses, but today I offically take a step into the next stage of my life. I have had a water pipe bust and my house flooded, found our my brother had throat cancer (he has gone through chemo and radation) and seems to be in remission for which we are thankful as many prayers have gone up for him and they have been greatly appreicated. I have stepped down from some of my leadership roles at church so that I can spend more time with my mother. Have got a facebook page and found alot of new bloggers that I am enjoying reading.
As of today I start working part-time, it is in a trial period to see if it works for both me and my employer. I am really praying that it works because it will enable me to keep my mother in her own home for awhile longer. We live approximately 4 blocks appart which allows us both to have a little independence but for me to still be there for her.
Anyway I am not sure where I will be going with this blog as time goes forward but I hope to be posted more and sharing things I am doing and that God is doing in my life.
May you all have a blessed Easter and remember why we celebrate this season.

Is it one of Santa's reindeer?
This is the scene from my office window one night last week. Did it get to cold in the North Pole for Santa's reindeer?
Actually it is a regular deer we see them from time to time as they come out of the woods behind out building. This is one of the Fog rolling in, we have had a lot of fog here in the last week.
If you double click on the pictures you can see the deer better.

ThanksGiving
Today is Thanksgiving and I have so much to be thankful for but here are just a few of mine.
1. My Savior Jesus Christ who died on the Cross for me
2. My Mother, who is still living and who I will be spending some time with later today (I will be taking Lunch to her house for her, my brother and myself)
3. For my family which in addition to my Mother includes: an older sister, a younger brother, a niece along with her husband and their two wonderful boys (who are also my God sons), and a nephew.
4. My Aunts and Uncles and cousin who all live in Va and I don't get see much ( My mother has 5 brothers and sisters still living out of 14)
5. My friends whose families are like my extended families and you know who you are.
6. My Church family who is one of the best in the world.
7. The parents of the toddlers I teach on Sunday morning for being faithful in bringing them to Church.
8. My blogging friends.
9. The "Yes to God" Bible study group on Tuesday. I got a little behind and plan to finish the book before they star on the new one which is Jennifer Rothschild's Self Talk, Soul Talk.
10. That I have a job, food on my table and a roof over my head. ( I may struggle financially some days but I could be a lot worse off)
11. That I live in America where I am free to worship and express my opinion. (Not all people have that freedom).
12. For all the men and women of the Armed Forces, who have served and laid down their life that I may have the freedom I was thankful in number 11.
13. I would like to say a special thanks to some wonderful Ladies whose blogs I have been following for the last year as they have shown me God in a new light as they have lost babies and lifted each other up as they walk down a path that no parent should have to walk. They have been real; shared their hurts and blessing, their ups and downs, but through it all given God the Glory. Today even though these babies are with Jesus in heaven they are still touching lives on earth as people read their stories for the 1st time. If you have the time I urge you to go to Tristan Asher Hostetter's blog and read his family story that started back August 15, 2007 when they found out that Tristan would be born with Trisomy 18. From that blog you can link to many others that walked the road with them. (I don't want to start listing them for fear I will leave someone out). I warn you that you will need at least one big box of Kleenex with you but you will be blessed as you see how God has had his hand on their lives and used tiny babies to bring people closer to him. ( There is a relationship here in that all those years ago God sent a tiny baby to this earth; to grow up; be mocked and crucified on a cross so that you and I may have a heavenly home with him someday if we ask him to come live in our heart.) If you do not have time to read Tristan's blog would you please pray for his family as next week he would have been a year old and I know this is a hard time for them.
I didn't mean to start preaching so If you are still reading thank you for spending some time on my blog and maybe you can share something you are thankful for on this thanksgiving.
