Denie! For all your goodness, do you still remember Ham's Boot Camp number or not?
Ah Hah! Thought so!

PS I love You.

Hey Bart,
Please don't ask me to remember numbers. Lol I just turned 50 and I am now considered Over the Hill. Lol At least I am on a down hill drag, much easier. That is what I have heard.
Dear Brother You are precious. I am blessed to have such strong brother's and sister's in Christ.
Much Love to You,
Denie

CBart I thankyou so much for this.
It will be nine years come Sept 1st that I stepped out in faith and quit a job working in a factory with full benefits to become a volunteer driver.
I didn't even have a car at the time. But a friend asked my husband if he thought I would put up on the bulletin board where I work an add to sell his car.
My husband said that is a nice car if I had the money I'd buy it for Judy. The friend said well I didn't even know you were looking for a car, I'll make you a deal you can't turn down.
My husband said no thats o;k, we're not set well enough right now to buy another car.
The guy said well hear me out - you bring Judy to take a look at it and if she likes it, she can set up her own payments.
This man and his wife signed the title over to me on a hand shake. He dropped his asking price over $1500.00.
The following week I gave notice at the factory and from that very moment trusted God to provide the runs for me and I became a volunteer driver.
I truly thank God each and every day for all Hs provision and opportunities to testify - one by one by one.
I love the Daily Word thankyou so much for the link and thankyou for being you. With Love Jute

Hey Jute,
That first step is the biggest and most scary. As we learn to step out on faith, as we see God's faithfullness, those steps get easier to take.

Much Love to You,
Denie

Hi Everyone,

I just wanted to share a Praise story.
Just a few minutes ago my hubby came in with a little ball of fluff. My daughter and I have played in the pool alot today so she was conked out on the couch. My hubby slipped over and placed, Maysie the kitten, on the couch beside her. He then said her name softly. She opened her big blue eyes and immediately saw her kitten. The look on her face was priceless. She was so emotional. We figure that someone had the kitten in their house. I have an appointment with the vet, to get her micro chipped. Maysie was hungry and has been glued to our daughter's side since she came home.
Thank you all for praying for our child.
Much Love to You All,
Denie

Ya know Denie here I am nine years down the road from that time and I feel like I've just begun and I know the best lies ahead.

I truly was so scared to make that step, to give up security - But I can honestly say, I've never looked back.--Lovingly Jute

Hi Denie...

I must apologize.. I didn't correct myself to have you or anyone remember.. It was simply that I needed to be accurate.. That is one of my faults..I still remember my service number..which I won't disclose here.. I remember our apartment house # when we lived in Boston.. I remember the # of the sub I served on.. I remember my wedding anniversary, Lynn's birthday. Just lots of numbers that serve as a reminder for some very pleasant memories.. It is like turning on a light switch.. For years I had the wrong year of Lynn's birth.. She fibbed to make herself a year younger.. Something about it not being a good thing to be older than her husband.. Her Mom pulled the same scam.. But, she had to fess up when she applied for Social Security and Lynn had to fess up when she applied to become an American citizen.. Sooner or late the truth does come out..And, in my experience it is numbers that trip them up..It turned out that Lynn was 2 months older than myself.. Big deal..It is quite a shock to have married an older woman..LOL

Oh well.. Sorry for the rambling.. The Cubbies lost in 12 innings today..

I hope your day is a good one.. I hope at church tomorrow someone sings a song that I love.

This reminds me of the story of when I was in college I was broke and had a car insurance bill due. At that time 6 months of liability was only 95 bucks a month. But I had not a nickel and need the car to get to work to make money so I could be there. Well I was really bummed out as you can imagine and was praying with not much faith. I went to my mail box in the Commons building and what shouldn't have been a surprise was a big surprise. There was a check from a former employer of 95 bucks. Some might call that a miracle but I call it all part of God's plan for my life. Jesus really does love me.

Ahh Tim how I love to hear testimonies like this.

I sometimes get so mad at myself for fretting over things, especailly financial -- I keep climbing that mountain with all my little problems but God has the answers coming up the other side -- I tell my self over and over again, be strong in faith Judy. So many times this ole flesh seems so weak, and yet God just keeps being there.

Thankyou for sharing Tim -- Lovingly Jute

HI Ham,
No need to apologize. My hubby is the exact same way. He is a "detail" person and has an awesome memory. He has to in his line of work.
We are singing some very nice songs tomorrow.
Hope you have a great evening.
Love Denie

Hi River Spirit..
I ran the new thread past BOO..
He meowed..
"Let sleeping dogs lie."
I knew what he meant.. He really does watch over me.. BOO watches the sparrows as well.. So, I know he watches me..
Bless his heart...
I hope your new thread is a winner...
Ham

Thanks Ham. Boo sounds like one of a kind. I know there are times when Horus and Isis (my cockatiels) are trying to tell me something but I just don't seem to get the message.

Ya know Ham as I sat there in that desolate parking garage and just have these people come from out of nowhere it yet today just amazes me how God works in my life.
Not only did they show me where to go but the lady actually walked us to the office. I did ask her name and she told me Theodora, and she spoke a beautiful accent of another culture.
It would be my hope that the ones who read this post and see her name would lift her in prayer in hopes she will be blessed as she blesses others.
I'm kinda having a restful yet get er done kinda day. I've just tore my bathroom all apart for a MAJOR cleaning and changing things around.
I know many would think how do you change a bathroom around tee hee, but I removed a shelf cupboard and replaced a pretty lamp in it's place, the aviance of a lamp versus just the overhead light seemed peaceful to me.
I have shelves with nic nacs given to me thru the years and my favoirte is ceramic white dolfin and my dad made me a wooden white swan before he passed.
I overheard my sister tell her daughter in law one day as they were looking at all my nic nacs and pictures, when you come to Judy's it's like family museum tee hee. And I love it that way.
Oops sorry didn't mean to write a page, to jump in and say HI -- Lovingly Jude

Hey sweetie, when you're done there wanna come over and help me with mine?

Dear JUTE:
"just have these people come from out of nowhere it yet today just amazes me how God works in my life."
Today's DAILY WORD remind us that "freely expressing the wisdom of Spirit,I am guided in right ways."
They go on to remind each of us that we are safely protected by God's power and spirit and his " G P S " !...which they go on to describe as "God's Powerful Spirit".
So many of us made mental notes to pray for you safety and protection as you did your wonderful charity this morning on that long drive. Lots of us were with you in your car and all of us are with you in your heart. You see: We LOVE You!

A special kodak moment on your memory forever --

Last Saturday Hubby and I was splitting wood, I went inside the garage for a moment and he was moving his truck and I heard a loud yike out of Sadie. My heart fell to my feet as I ran out and screamed at hubby to stop -

I was instantly crying and said honey I thnk you may have just run over Sadie, he went ashen in color and I told him I heard her yike loudly.

Just as we bent to look under the truck here she came running around the wood pile, I went to my knees thanking God for her safety.

Oh how we love these little critters -- I'm so happy for you and your family Denie. Love Jute

Hey River I was just thinking of you -- The park has their signs up for the Pow Wow this coming weekend. I'm sure goona try and make that one.

Also WhiteCloud has theeir annual festival at the same time. Good food, good times.

Ahh it seems so good to have a chore done that ya been dreading, doesn't it? Believe it or not, bathrooms take a lot of time to clean thourghly.

I just finished with supper and dishes and I tell ya I'm pooped -- I have a puzzle of birds I'm working on -- like I really have spare time tee hee. But it should be pretty when I'm finished, then I'm going to put it on my kitchen wall.

Always good to hear from you River -- Lovingly Jute

To me it's independence, cause I can decide what I want to take and whom. It is the loss of benefits though and if you have insurance that means a lot.

But the agencies in your county has the same programs anytime you are interested. You could even get certified and take one day a week just to see how you like it.

Hi Ham....You said when Lynn applied for an American citizenship...Where was she born? In Europe? I am a little older than my husband...Is that bad?.....LOL

Hi Epiphant2..

No, she was a Canadian citizen.. From the Toronto area.. When I first met her she was a blond.. Being a blond was the in thing in these days.. She really had red hair which is common among the Scottish.. Like Boaz I don't remember being seriously effected by her being older, being an alien or a blond.. It was her smile that I remember most.. She was very easy to talk with.. I firmly believe that like Boaz and Ruth, our meeting was by the hand of God..

No, I don't feel that age is a negative.. It can be thou when being a couple months older means much more to the person.. It is like discovering that your spouse has an IQ two points higher.. Meaningless, but it can become a problem.. She is smarter than me.. A thought for some that becomes a curse..

Sad, isn't it..
