Stopping The Oil

Lord Jesus, please guide the hands today of those attempting to stop the oil leak in and near Louisiana coast...heal our land and water Lord...stop greed and change the hearts of the greedy...God bless the wildlife and the marshes and the livelihood of the fisherman...I pray today for solutions to this sticky mess...return to the Lord and pray America.

Use It Up

There must be a reason why some people can afford to live well. They must have worked for it. I only feel angry when I see waste. When I see people throwing away things we could use. --Mother Theresa

Checked In On Facebook

I recently opted out of facebook...I was spending way too much time....I felt I was repeating the same verses and quotes and ideas...Tonite I checked in and saw nothing much had changed...same complainers and same praisers...But on my page I created called God's Grace was a request for prayer from one of my Christian friends..Donielle is a woman with children who is dying from ovarian cancer...nothing more the doctors can do. Her thoughts and concerns are not for herself but for the children she leaves behind...I had to comment on this..I ask all who read this to pray for people to step up and offer love and care to the children and to comfort Donnielle...Please pray the Lord will provide all this family needs and help them through this difficult storm of life. I miss facebook a little...a lot at times. I will check in and respond to things such as this. Praise Jehovah Jireh...who supplies our needs even before we know what we need. In Jesus name, God bless us all.

Make A Choice

Harmony Earth Diet The Unharmonious Diet
1. Awareness. Focus on the taste of your food and really enjoy each bite. Take your time and nourish soul and body together. 1. Distraction. Eat while watching TV or reading, or while talking on the phone. Do not pay attention to food. Eat in a hurry.
2. Variety. Eat hundreds of types of foods over the seasons of the year, being aware of God's abundance and variety. Try new foods as often as you can. Eat food in seasonal cycles 2. Limitation. Eat only about 25 different foods, year in and year out. Do not vary diet seasonally. Avoid trying anything new. Eat lots and lots of certain foods. Be in a rut
3. Freedom. Eat when you are hungry, and what your body craves. Throw out schedules and "shoulds" and rigid eating rules. 3. Rigidity. Conform to mealtimes, schedules, rules, traditions, and regulations about eating times and foods in general.
4. Simplicity. Eat just the things you want, not worrying about a "well balanced meal". If you just want an apple or an egg, then just eat that. Your diet will vary over time. 4. Complexity. Consider that you must have certain food groups every day, and force yourself to eat things you don't want just to be "balanced".
5. Quality. Know where your food comes from and choose the highest quality. One egg may have ten times the nutrition than another egg. Likewise with an orange, a cup of sprouts, or a cut of meat. 5. Inferiority. Eat any food regardless of the source. Consider that any apple is just as good as any other apple. Don't bother to learn how food is grown, or the consciousness of the people who bring it to you.
6. Local. Eat local whenever you can. Food has a consciousness that tells your body where on earth you live. Local food is also fresher - and builds your local network. 6. Shipped. Eat mostly food from far away. You don't know how it was grown or the people who grew it (or manufactured it), or how old the food might be. The earth consciousness is different.
7. Wholeness. Eat the whole food, whatever it is. If you are eating wheat, eat the whole wheat. Eat the edible skins and peels and seeds. Eat unprocessed foods. 7. Fractionated. Eat only parts of foods, foods that have been divided up by machinery into various parts. Only eat food that has been mashed, mixed, and processed.
8. Vitality. Choose foods with their original, vital, full genetic power. Choose mostly foods that continue to grow in the wild. This may take some education on your part. 8. Weakness. Eat lots of foods that have been hybridized until they can no longer grow except with the help of man. These foods are the starchy foods, many people's favorites.
9. Loved. Eat foods prepared in love and focus. This secret is one of the most important. Be allowing and kind with others in all social eating situations. Bless your food. 9. Unloved. Eat foods that have been manufactured in huge assembly-line processes with no consciousness or awareness. Eat foods prepared by those who put no love into it.
10. Hunger. Eat when you are really hungry. Allow your body to cleanse between meals. Then choose simple nourishing foods that "hit the spot" and satisfy body and soul together 10. Appetite. Eat to please the taste buds. Don't worry about being hungry. Eat stimulating and heavily spiced and sweetened foods that still "jolt" the appetite when you aren't even hungry.

Being A Grandma


I think of all the positions there are on earth, the grandest is being a Grandma. I have a dozen of them, and each one is a cherub, a charmer, and a jewel in the crown of my life. To say I feel complete and blessed is an understatement. I have enjoyed each phase of each of their lives..watching in amazement as their parents (my own grown up babies) fulfill their needs and desires. They all have their sports and their hobbies and somehow they find the time to be there. I have attended a fair share of recitals and games and plays and award ceremonies...including our oldest grandson's honor society award this year...I have shed tears and choked up at the pride and love and joy I feel inside for their beautiful caring hearts...In a world where there is lack of respect and appreciation as the common denominator..my grandchildren have always shown me just the opposite. From their preschool days of shouting "Grandma is here!!!" To their shy in front of their friends "Thanks for coming Grandma"...they have made me feel like a million ...many moments of love bursts...and if I focus on the joy of life it will be on this group of wonderful loving examples that will make this world a better place. Thank you God for our Grandchildren, and our beautiful children for giving them to us.

Lyrics By God

Ain't no mountain high
Ain't no valley low
Ain't no river wide enough, baby

If you need me, call me
No matter where you are
No matter how far (don't worry baby)
Just call my name
I'll be there in a hurry
You don't have to worry

'Cause baby,
There ain't no mountain high enough
Ain't no valley low enough
Ain't no river wide enough
To keep me from getting to you babe

Remember the day
I set you free
I told you
You could always count on me darlin'
From that day on I made a vow
I'll be there when you want me
Some way,some how

'Cause baby,
There ain't no mountain high enough
Ain't no valley low enough
Ain't no river wide enough
To keep me from getting to you babe

Oh no darlin'
No wind, no rain

All winters cold
Can't stop me baby (No No Baby)
'Cause you are my goal
If you're ever in trouble
I'll be there on the double
Just send for me oh baby.

My love is alive
Way down in my heart
Although we are miles apart
If you ever need a helping hand
I'll be there on the double
As fast as I can

Don't you know that
There ain't no mountain high enough
Ain't no valley low enough
Ain't no river wide enough
To keep me from getting to you babe

Don't you know that
There ain't no mountain high enough
Ain't no valley low enough
Ain't no river wide enough
There ain't no mountain high enough
Ain't no valley low enough

If You Need Me, Call Me

I say this to my family, quoting Diana Ross...but it means so much more. It is what Jesus told us to do, call on Him in a day when you are in need. Let's do it.
