Driving Miss Daisy

Saturday was Matthew's 15th birthday....WOOHOO!!!!! But with the  holiday today he can't go test and get his driving permit til Tuesday.

At which time I pray he passes so I can  become Miss Daisy. I will NO  longer have to drive anywhere. I will have a chauffeur. I will love it for the first week I am sure.I will TRY not to be a front seat passenger driver.

So if you see US coming slow down and pull to the side where it will be safer til we pass.

Have a great Memorial Day!!!!!!

Giving Hearts

I was so surprised and thankful. Today I had 7 fifth grade girls who made 2 baby blankets for the Pregnancy Outreach Center. They wanted to make sure they went to a baby who really needed it, and of course it will.
I took a picture of these sweet giving souls and it will be put in the paper but didn't want to post it here.

Just know that there are sweet selfless,giving kids in our community of ALL ages. We can ALL do something to help others in need.They are truley leaders and examples for us all to follow no matter how old we are. God Bless each one of these sweet girls. The Pregnancy Outreach Center is thankful for you!

Pocket full of money

 We have this thing we call the God Pocket. It holds an unknown amount of money.
We try to help others in their time of need. Food, clothes,etc.......
We NEVER use it on ourselves NEVER because it is God's money.
Not even if we forgot the checkbook at home and we are in the line at the grocery store do we ever touch the God pocket money.

From time to time we have people who know we use certain money for families in need, and will give.
We add that to the God pocket money, we add to the pocket too.
The pocket is NEVER empty, praise GOD!

Feels so good to know, God helps His people.

Get you a God pocket, you'll NEVER regret it!

PS. God always tells us when and who and how to use the God pocket.....there is no questions.

My Girl

I don't have much to report here........
Just having a great day, and this little critter
make me smile! She can give hugs too!





Yes she's a begger too!

When God speaks do you hear??? Sometimes I don't, so He has to use weird ways to get my attention.

Like this truck, B
                       A
                       Y
God said Being Above Yourself. (BAY)   What? So I took out my camera so you could see how God speaks to me at times.



That means being so far in to God your not down here in yourself, being in the flesh. Being above yourself...
I know it's weird But what can I say....

Right after that I saw this! So true. What are you waiting for, go out and get started. Spread the Word!

Ungrateful Nation

We are such a wasteful nation of people. As I fasted 2 weeks ago so the Honduras Dump people could get feed for a day, I thought wow, I am so blessed. I NEVER have to worry about my next meal . I worry about if I am in the the mood for it ......if not I pick something else.

Last night at church we had a meal as we do every Wednesday night. I went to the trash to put my plate in and saw at least 50 Cheetos's some kid didn't eat. I was so sad. I thought what would a kid in Honduras give to have 1 cheeto??? They dig through the trash everyday that the trash truck comes like trying to find gold. Only it is a few bites someone else has thrown away. We are BLESSED.


If you want to know more about the Dump People go to you tube.com and type in Honduras Dump. Grab a tissue and open your hearts to give so someone else can eat. If you feel lead to give contact me and I will direct you in the right direction........God is Good and God is able!!!!!

God Bless.
