i saw the beauty of Jesus

today.  when a lovely lady

came to jan and me while

we were pumping gas.  she

had no money, but her eyes

were glistening.  when we spoke

the name of Jesus, the sky lit to

a clear, pure blue.  and we helped

her a little.

jan and i stopped at her

favorite little dress shop,

and we told the sales' clerk

that one could feel the warmth

of shining love when we reach

out and touch the fingertips

of God's vast grace .. 

and she said her heart yearned

for that.

i have been with jan

while tom and their son, nash,

are at a 60.2 mile race.  had

to call an ambulance for jan.

found out with latest catscan

that my bones did not fuse in

my foot so surgery is a must.....

BUT...

"bless the Lord,

oh, my soul,

and ALL that is within me....

bless His Holy Name...."

"He has done great things...

He has done great things...

He has done great things..

bless His holy Name.."

we have been eating

chocolate eclairs.  and

pinkleberry frozen yogurt.  and

lots of gummy bears.

"But Lord, be merciful to us, for we have waited for you. 

Be our strong arm each day and our salvation in times of trouble."
~ Isaiah 33:2, NLT ~ Isaiah 33:2, NLT

if we don't cut back on sugar,

mercy will be our war cry.  smile.
