What a week....

I have had one of the toughest but yet greatest weeks of my life. I learned so much....I've learned that to be obedient to GOD is tough, but yet, so much what I WANT to do, nothing else, nothing more, nothing less....

Obedience should be easy, and that is what I'm still learning....I'm a hard head....(yea, like you guys didn't know that! HA!) So sometimes my lessons are hard. But those are the ones that we learn from isn't it? At least I can admit that I am learning!!!

Tour was incredible....to see 200 lives changed, feeding those that hunger for physical nourishment, having the opportunity to know that some will be clothed, visiting with those that others would not think about visiting with, and watching STUDENTS learn that worship is not something done inside a building, but it is really what we do every minute of our lives. I have learned to worship more, by watching them learn. I learned that it isn't a 'program' a 'building' or certain words, but it is in giving of ourselves and allowing GOD to be seen....hiding ourselves behind the cross, as one of my favorite pastors used to say.

Many thank yous to all those that have left me words of encouragement, and prayers that have gone to the ears of the Father on our behalf....for that I am forever grateful!

In loving memory....

Has been a rough week around my house....my beautiful 94 year old mother passed away yesterday....she was so incredible that she still lived alone and still worked 1/2 a day!!! She worked up until last Friday. Wednesday morning about 12:30 she was admitted to the hospital with problems with her gall bladder and pancreas....they also found some heart problems and eventually discovered that her blood was septic.....so yesterday around 3pm she passed away.

Here is a layout I did about her when she received the outstanding citizen award for Arkansas 2 years ago! She was honored and loved by many! I love you mom, and I will miss you....

You Brighten My Day

And that is the TRUTH! So often we all just need a simple smile, a simple "Hello, how are you doing?" just to let us know that someone is thinking about us....

Today's times are getting harder and harder....jobs, stock market, just general life is hard....(boy do I sound like gloom and doom....sorry). SOOOOO what a better thing to do than to go get a book of stamps...and send some LOVE to just spread some smiles! Let someone know you are thinking about them, praying for them or just want to put a simple smile on their face!

Here is a simple little card that I'm going to send out to a dear friend....she is actually my mother-in-law's cousin....She is in her 80's and I KNOW she would soooo appreciate a little smile!



So...what do you say...I CHALLENGE YOU TODAY to make a card and JUST SEND IT for NOOOO reason, other to say you are thinking of them today! After you make the card, and just before you send it, stop and share it with us! Let us know who you sent it to and why! I know even that will bring smiles on our faces!!!!
