Three weeks

I could tell you what I was doing 3 weeks ago today. I can also tell you how my whole morning went. On that day I woke about 2:30 and came down to sit by mother. I remember sitting facing the window on the north and praying that maybe God would allow the sun to come up a bit early that day as mother always seemed to do better in the daylight or it may have been me who did better. At 12:40 Gail was introduced to the Lord. Well today is a different day in many many ways. I have not been sleeping all that great and I prayed, please Lord give me a good nights sleep last night. I fell asleep about 11:45, looked at the clock once at 3:45 and then woke up as a tiny bit of rose colored light begin to sneak through my bedroom window at 7:15. Thank you Lord.

I spent more than an hour putting out paper, bottles and some clean clothes for the recycle person. This is the last day of MUCH stuff going to the recycling truck. I have continued to go through things and have now gotten in to a few boxes of things that are in the "what should I do" category. There are of course many many more boxes like that. I would guess that my winter project may be boxes!!

Mark Lauer just stopped and it was a great time. I now see Cynthia here so will go.

At church yesterday we sang the song, "You Are Mine" and I offered it up as a prayer for you.

I will come to you in the silence
I will lift you from all your fear
You will hear My voice
I claim you as My choice
Be still, and know I am near

I am hope for all who are hopeless
I am eyes for all who long to see
In the shadows of the night,
I will be your light
Come and rest in Me

Chorus
Do not be afraid, I am with you
I have called you each by name
Come and follow Me
I will bring you home
I love you and you are mine

I am strength for all the despairing
Healing for the ones who dwell in shame
All the blind will see, the lame will all run free
And all will know My name

Chorus
Do not be afraid, I am with you
I have called you each by name
Come and follow Me
I will bring you home
I love you and you are mine

I am the Word that leads all to freedom
I am the peace the world cannot give
I will call your name, embracing all your pain
Stand up, now, walk, and live

Chorus
Do not be afraid, I am with you
I have called you each by name
Come and follow Me
I will bring you home
I love you and you are mine

We pray for you and think of you daily.
