The Path

I know I write about this a lot...
God will let us know when we are on the path
the one we were born to travel
it is like stepping onto a large peaceful platform
when we get there
we will know

Coming Out of the Pit


There comes a time when we decide to get out of the pit

a person has to find it for themselves

once we get to that place

God is right there

holding his hands out

he will gently pull us

out of the deep pit

Once you turn into a butterfly, everything will be easier because you can FLY! Hang in there through the lessons because it is the lessons that make you beautiful!

Can you see the heart in the watermelon? We are given signs all of the time and the joy is in finding them!

New Day


It is so funny how life continually gives us new perspectives, new starts.

God teaches us daily and is gracious enough to give us all time to use the changes in our lives.

If you are feeling alone today, please remember tomorrow is a new day. We are not alone, we have God and he gives us angels in our lives daily. Cherish the moments......

Rabbits and Faith


I want to write but all of my mixed emotions right now make it difficult for me to find exactly what I want to say.

Today, Dexter (my little man-dog) was outside with my Mom. He was going crazy with his nose to the ground. My mom went to see what was making him freak. There was a hole in the ground, in our back yard right under the kitchen window. My mother stuck her hand in the hole (she is brave, hehe) and felt fur. There were baby rabbits in the hole! We have been keeping Dexter away hoping that the mommy rabbit returns.

As I was sitting her staring out the window trying to think of what I want to write, the mother rabbit appeared right under my window. She went to the hole and sat over it and nursed the baby rabbits. She took care of them for a while and ran away again.

This is a message from God for me, I see how he takes care of me and I have to to trust him like the baby rabbits trust that their mom will feed them. It is all about having faith.

My MRI is tomorrow at 3. The doctor gave me Valium to take 30 min before because it is a closed MRI and I'm not sure if I would freak out or not. Please send up a prayer for me if you think of it.

Actions


Does every action have a reaction

are we causing ripples with everything we do

if so I hope my ripples are helpful

one reason I write is for you


My Friend Christy (the card angel)

My friend Christy Collier is the most thoughtful person I know!
She sends cards for every occasion to all of us lucky friends.
She told me she wanted to lift people up and a card can do that.
I am so blessed to call Christy my friend. Love you Christy!
Lets all do something nice for someone today!!

The Hand of Colors


When I first started this particular journey, I was so afraid of telling anyone about the things I see. Now, I have learned to use it to help people and to use it to pray for people. I had a very strong vision of a hand (I see hands a lot) from the hand were rays of light from each finger. They rays of light were going out to help people, the hand was not just mine, it was many people, with different gifts. It was a powerful vision, I could feel the energy and peace from it.

The Dream is Back


Oh, there you are all yellow and white.
It is so good to see all of the light.
Where have you been, did you go away?
All I could find was a dull shade of gray.
I’m your dream, I’m still here.
You forgot about me.
I had to wait for you to see.
The gifts have been here for you all these years,
they were hidden behind all the tears.
Now paint, write poems, and help others to heal.
You will shine. This time it is real!

Enjoy Every Minute of Today


Taking in the good is not about putting a happy shiny face on everything, nor is it about turning away from the hard things in life. It's about nourishing inner well-being, contentment, and peace -- refuges to which you can always return. --Rick Hanson

the Little Seed


Once there was a dream

planted in the heart of a child.

Through the years it would

start to grow and someone

would step on it with negative

words over and over, until it

quit looking for new springs.

Then ONE person took the time

to look inside the heart and with kind words

and encouragement the dream

began to grow....

until it became REALITY!!!

Hope


Sometimes hope is right in front

of us

and all we have to do is

look up

and see it

could it have

been there all

along?

Outside the Box


Sometimes, it feels

like there is nothing

that can help

one to get out of

the box

there seems to

be walls on

all sides

but

there is hope

if one can learn

to think

in ways that

aren't so common

using God

given creativity
