Its Tuesday Afternoon at the Library in Union,SC.
Schools started back in Union County yesterday and as I drove to the library I saw a school bus a-ways in front of me dropping off children. We need to pray for our children, teachers, all leadership in our local and state system. These are the adults of tomorrow, and goodness knows, we need people of character to hold positions of authority in the future...(we need them now)! They need to be taught that there is a God...how can anyone really deny that! I dare say most people that dont even "say" they believe, somewhere deep inside them is a "wondering" about LIFE!
Don is with his Mother today as he is every day at Oakmont of Union...rehab/nursing home. I talked with him a few minutes ago and he said she was having a good day. He was over at her house watering her flowers...(his&her flowers). Then he will return to have supper with her. Keep her in your prayers...Mattie Sue Kingsmore...and all the family.
I mention in my profile that I like to get on facebook and chat with my grandchildren and I really do. They would rather do that than phone! So I decided that was the thing to do, to communicate with them, and to just let them know how very much I love them "just as they are"....(God does..so surely I should) They are work in progress...and HE WHO BEGAN A GOOD WORK WILL CONTINUE IT TIL THE END! As the Bible says....
"ALL MY CHILDREN (& Grandchildren) shall be taught of the Lord and GREAT shall be their PEACE and UNDISTURBED COMPOSURE! I don't recall where that is exactly in the Bible....but I know it is there because I have spoken that over them for years. Today a new FB Friend of mine who recently was "Born Again, Again", told of leading his 7 year old daughter to the Lord yesterday. WOW...there is nothing more precious than that!
I had a wonderful time with the Lord this morning and just did not want to quit reading my Bible. It was as if everything I read was ALIVE! And I just wanted more, & more, & more, & more! But...I finally broke myself away, did some housework and got ready to come here. On the way out I stopped to pick up our mail which is delivered to a mailbox a mile from our house...and I was just in such a good mood...
BUT...when I got the mail and opened one of the letters I was abruptly shaken out of my peace for (a moment). I called Don and related the information to him and he seemed not to worry about it. So...I just put the letter back in the envelope and began to PRAISE GOD AND LAUGH! The letter indicated some serious things that could be taking place regarding the City of Charlotte,NC and some commercial property we own right downtown Charlotte. Well...the Lord reminded me of how we got that property and how it was in HIS PLAN...and that we had it in our possession for a purpose and NOTHING WAS GOING TO INTERFERE WITH HIS PLANS FOR THAT PROPERTY! I got really excited as I drove and just was so aware of the Presence of the Lord in my car. Peace regarding the whole situation settled in and JOY AROSE....(Now I cannot wait to see how OUR GOD is going to work this out....FOR OUR GOOD! AMEN!
(did you know that Amen means...so be it!) SO....BE....IT...!
so nice to hear what's going on with you!
