Hello my friends! Busy day tomorrow - we are helping Darla and Greg pack for moving on Saturday. She is not supposed to do a thing, has to be so careful! My husband will take some boxes over to the new house in the afternoon after they get their key. Then moving day is Saturday afternoon, will be helping them unpack etc. then and as much as they need us. Starting Wednesday next week I start working for Lori at the office, taking calls and giving out gift certificates like I've been doing every year at this time. Her clients are asking when I will be coming in to work!! Guess they look forward to seeing me there once a year! Today was a restful day, talked to both girls on the phone, and really liking our new phones with T-Mobile now. My Sprint one was so old and it was losing so much power so fast! Seems like T-Mobile is good company and cheaper rates than what we were paying at Sprint. Lots of blessings from God we are so grateful for!
I believe that in one God there are three Divine Persons- God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit.
I believe that God became Man without ceasing to be God. He is Jesus Christ, my Lord and Savior, the Redeemer of human race. He died on the cross for my salvation and eternal happiness.
O my God, give me a strong faith. Help me to believe with lively faith.
O my God, all-good and all merciful, I sincerely hope to be saved. Help me to do all that is necessary to gain eternal salvation.
I have committed many sins in my life, but now I turn away from them. I am sorry, truly sorry, for all of them, because I have offended You, my God, Who are all-good, all-perfect, all-holy and all-merciful.
I love You, O my God, with all my heart. Please forgive me for having offended You. I promise that, with Your help, I will never offend You again.
My God, have mercy on me. Amen.
The Second Ten Commandments
12. Thou shall not be fearful, for most of the things we fear never come to pass.
13. Thou shall not cross bridges before you come to them, for no one yet has succeeded in accomplishing this.
14. Thou shall face each problem as it comes. You can only handle one at a time anyway.
15. Thou shall not take problems to bed with you, for they make very poor bedfellows.
16. Thou shall not borrow other people's problems. They can better care for them than you can.
17. Thou shall not try to relive yesterday for good or ill, it is forever gone. Concentrate on what is happening in your life and be happy now!
18. Thou shall be a good listener, for only when you listen do you hear different ideas from your own. It is hard to learn something new when you are talking, and some people do know more than you do.
19. Thou shall not become "bogged down" by frustration, for 90% of it is rooted in self-pity and will only interfere with positive action.
20. Thou shall count thy blessings, never overlooking the small ones, for a lot of small blessings add up to a big one.
To "LET GO" Does not mean to stop caring, it means I can't do it for someone else. To "LET GO" Is not to cut myself off, it's the realization that I can't control another human being. To "LET GO" Is not to enable, but to allow someone to learn from their natural consequences. To "LET GO" Is to admit powerlessness , which means the outcome is not in my hands. To "LET GO" Is not to try to change or blame another, but to make the most of myself. To "LET GO" Is not to care for, but to care about. To "LET GO" Is not to fix, but to be supportive, and not violate my values. To "LET GO" Is not to judge, but to allow another to be a human being. To "LET GO" Is not to be in the middle, arranging all the outcomes , but to allow God to work in the lives of others. To "LET GO" Is not to be protective, it's to permit another to face reality. To "LET GO" Is not to deny, but to accept . To "LET GO" Is not to nag, scold or argue with another person, but instead to search out my own shortcomings and allow God to correct them. To "LET GO" Does not mean to deny the shortcomings in others, but to accept others unconditionally in love. To "LET GO" Is not to adjust everything to my desires, but to accept each day as it comes; knowing God offers it to me for growth. To "LET GO" Is not to criticize or regulate anybody, but to try to become the person I understand God wants me to be. To "LET GO" Does not mean to compete against another human being, but rather, to compete within myself to learn "self- control" through circumstances God brings into my life. To "LET GO" Does mean to fear less and love more. To "LET GO" Means I don't demand my own way, but that I hold firm to my values and beliefs-- while allowing others the same privilege. To "LET GO" Doesn't mean that I expect God to do everything for me, but that I let God show me how to do His will for my life.December 10
Make Me the focal point of your search for security. In your private thoughts, you are still trying to order your world so that it is predictable and feels safe. Not only is this an impossible goal, but it is also counterproductive to spiritual growth. When your private world feels unsteady and you grip My hand for support, you are living in conscious dependence on Me.
Instead of yearning for a problem-free life, rejoice that trouble can highlight your awareness of My Presence. In the darkness of adversity, you are able to see more clearly the radiance of My Face. Accept the value of problems in this life, considering them pure joy. Remember that you have an eternity of trouble-free living awaiting you in heaven.
“So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.”
—Isaiah 41:10Even there your hand will guide me, your right hand will hold me fast.
—Psalm 139:10Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds.
—James 1:2

Best of Health, Luck, and Happiness to Darla and Greg in their new home.
Enjoy uour new phone Gloria.
Can I ask for just a little prayer? It is nothing serious and you may think it is a little silly of me to ask.
I don't know if I mentioned this before but I play the Organ, actualy my husband and I built it almost thirty years ago.
I'm not a professional but I just play for my own enjoyment, it is very relaxing.
Well something happened to it and it wasn't playing, so we called the service department of the WERSI Organ Co. Located in Lancaster, Pa. it is about two or three hours away from us so it isn't just around the corner. We wanted to see if they could help us to figure out what was wrong with it. First of all it was like pulling teeth to try to get a hold of the young man who does the repairs, but when we finally got him he told us to send him one of the boards that have some of the electronics on it and he said it probably needed a battery. Well to make a long story short that didn't work and then we had to try and get a hold of him again this went on for several months, and we did pay him, then he said he would something else and he didn't come through again and again. So I finnaly gave up and We just purchased a Yamaha keyboard which I received yesterday.
Yes I'm finnaly getting to what I want the prayer for. This thing is quite a handful and it is a little beyound me.
I really have a lot to learn, I'm afraid if I can't habdle it I will have to send it back.And I really love to play.
So could you just say a little prayer for me.
Thanks.
Blessings to all.

Harlene, of course I'll be praying for you - I love playing the piano too, so I understand. Hopefully you still can get the organ to work! Learning a new keyboard should be fun, too, just follow the instructions, and maybe call someone? Praying for you!!
