Sunny skies .....

I wake up every morning thanking the Lord for another day! I am so grateful to feel good it is amazing.
It is like finding a long lost friend.

After hearing back from Josh's principal yesterday about how he shared "mom has been locked in her room for weeks and I can't touch her" Sam took Josh out for a father son chat last night to see how he was coping. He has accepted this whole sickness and situation as matter of fact. He misses me but seems to be handling it all very well. If anything it has helped him mature and stand on his own more. He is really being blessed through this hardship too. Sam did ask him why he thought my door was locked and he said "So Mom can't come out." He was shocked when Sam told him it was so that HE couldn't get IN.....      :-) I wonder if he thought this whole time Mom was on a really big time out! LOL

I had to run an errand after dropping Josh off this morning and so I listened to Genesis in the car. I never realized that Eden was in Isreal or the far East somewhere. At least that is what it sounded like because it spoke of the rivers that ran through it and one was the Euphrates. I was blown away. I am loving the stuff I am learning. I listen to my bible on CD in the garden too. Now I just have to see if I can upload a few to my phone for when I go on my walks.

I feel refreshed with new life and a new purpose and am making plans to do the things I need to in my home. Baby steps as I know I still am not 100 % back yet but it feels good. My yard has been the first priority and then my closet. I can't wait as I am really on fire and have a plan!

Please pray with me for my dear friend who wil have surgery in 2 weeks. I will be lifting her up for healing and peace everyday. I feel so blessed that I have had this time to lift others up in prayer and to serve. And if I forgot someone since my list has grown so long now, I know the Holy Spirit can intercede for me for the needs of God's people. I know I just need to be obedient and go to the Lord in prayer. God is so patient with us! It's amazing!

My daily devotion today is this: 1 Timothy 6:12 (New International Version)

Fight the good fight of the faith. Take hold of the eternal life to which you were called when you made your good confession in the presence of many witnesses.

Thank you Lord for today!
