Remembrance...Part III

Today...

Oh dear friends, keep holding on to your dreams,
He keeps His promises...
Oh dear ones, keep staying the course,
He has gone before you and will strengthen...
Oh children of Holy One, be comforted by His presence,
filled to overflowing with His merciful grace...
Oh dear mom and dad of little angels,
worship and be captivated...

No words...yet words...

Hugs, tears, smiles, prayers always and forever...

Still praying and holding on to a dream...

we will cry tears of joy...

You are loved!

For today...

Remembrance...Part I

Today...

In remembrance of life altering changes...

We pray, we hope, we dream, and stand on the promise of the Lord...
He will hear cry of His servants' plea, and bless abundantly exceedingly all asked.

Sometimes words do not come, just our hearts and knees knelt before His throne on your behalf. A hug, a smile, a call...just to say we love you and will one day cry tears of joy as we celebrate with you the breath of life He will bestow upon you to raise.

We love you dear friends, we still remain on bended knee for you to Thee.

May the Lord guide your journey and provide His wisdom.
May the Lord take your pain and turn it to joy.
May the Lord take your tears and give comfort.
May the Lord take your questions and strengthen you.
May the Lord take your dreams and fill the desires of your hearts.
May the Lord smile upon two of His children that praise through the storm.
May the Lord bless you exceedingly abundantly all you ask.
May the Lord fill you with love overflowing.

Hugs, tears, smiles, prayers dear friends. You are loved.

For today...

Seen...Unseen

As the morning dew sits on withers of grass, I ponder over to an awe inspiring website to start the day....

only to find this quote:


Do not depend on the hope of results. When you are doing the sort of work you have taken on, essentially an apostolic work, you may have to face the fact that your work will be apparently worthless and even achieve no result at all, if not perhaps results opposite to what you expect.

As you get used to this idea, you start more and more to concentrate not on the results but on the value, the rightness, the truth of the work itself.

—Thomas Merton, in a letter to Jim Forest dated February 21, 1966


So...my mind started to think upon such things...

Makes me reflect on one of my favorite things to think about...."The unseen". So many times we focus on what we can see, rather to obey and heed scripture that tells us that faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things unseen.

This composed in my mind...written across keyboard and emailed....

Let us live in truth, worship in spirit and truth, let us work for not the "seen" but the "unseen".-for in that lies the very majesty of Him who created us.
Let us be a mere reflection of Christ, carrying with us His love and not our own expectations of outcomes nor performances.
Let us lay down our heads with meekness of heart, knowing we did good work in following Him, for it is He who has chosen the mighty work within.
Truth, righteousness, peace....and forever praise!


May your day be filled with blessings, love, laughter, and the peace that surpasses all understanding! May you be filled with joy overflowing just in knowing He has gone before you, prepared you, equipped you for every good work....even the "felt" or the "unseen".

May His mighty hand guide and protect you today and always.

You are loved!

Seen...Unseen...live in truth, spirit, and grace of the Lord
