Sunset on the Pond

Civil War

A time forgotten in history, The Civil War when neighbors faught with their neighbors. Have we learned? Do we remember. Do you know your neighbors? I dont. I know I should make an effort but I dont take the time. What will it take for us to learn that people are more important than work or television? Why do we allow our neighbors to suffer alone?

God has given us so many things in this life as blessings for us to cherish. Memories, Good times, Family, Friends, and His creation. Take time to remember all that is good and beautiful and precious in your life. I got a new job today and I am so happy and thankful. The rain has stopped and the land is beautiful. I will be working with pregnant women in the hospital, helping to deliver babies, and even working in Pediatrics. I feel the LORD and his presence, even though I am very tired from working at making my house a home and helping out with Marty's shop. I miss my family and wish I could see everyone at Thanksgiving. Even though I am not going to be in California I am so thankful for a loving family, blood and in-laws. Food in my refrigerator and clothes on my back is always a blessing. What are you thankful for?

Cowabunga

So much time has gone by already since the wedding. My daughter is quite a woman and housewife. Pensacola is good for her with sun, sand, and surf. Cowabunga.

My best work of art. With Gods gifts. It's good to be blogging again. I have one question. What is your passion. My passion is my daughter, all kids, and helping people. How often do we develop our own goals or follow our dreams. Most of the time we arent really sure what they are. I love my family and friends and would be lonely without them to love me. God is good to me even if my circumstances are not.

Long way from home. New home in Louisiana is getting settled. Starting to enjoy it. Can you believe it's almost been a year now!

Feelings

Feelings are not always what you would like to have when they are of doubt and insufficiency. A great struggle in life is to have faith that what I have asked from the Lord He will do, in His time, and I need to be not afraid. Faith is believing in things unseen and things unhoped for.

Faculty, Who me?

Today I got my first job as a teacher. I have always wanted to teach Nursing students and the Lord has provided a wonderful start with good Godly people and an atmosphere of real caring for the students and teachers alike. The Holy Spirit filled the room as the interview detailed the work of G-d in our lives and how He responds to us through prayer. I have never cried through an interview before, but there is always a first time for everything. I will be teaching LVN students and I couldn't be more excited to have a chance to make a difference in peoples lives. My life has changed so much in the last year and I am always amazed at how the Lord continues to work in my life. Always miraculous with a common thread of love and care and consistency.
