WHERE DOES THE TIME GO

 

Isn’t it amazing how fast the days seem to go by? thinking of how close the weekend is upon us made me think  of the Seasons in  Ecclesiastes

 

Ecclesiastes 3:1 To every [thing there is] a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven:

.Ecclesiastes 3:2 A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up [that which is] planted;

 
Ecclesiastes 3:3 A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up

;
Ecclesiastes 3:4 A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance;

Ecclesiastes 3:5 A time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing;

Ecclesiastes 3:6 A time to get, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away;

Ecclesiastes 3:7 A time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak;

Ecclesiastes 3:8 A time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace.

BIBLE STUDIES ARE A GOOD THING

reading is a good thing, God’s word encourages us to read

Ephesians 3:4 Whereby, when ye read, ye may understand my knowledge in the mystery of Christ)

1 Timothy 4:13 Till I come, give attendance to reading, to exhortation, to doctrine

2 Timothy 2:15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needed not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.

I NEVER SHALL FORGET THE DAY

I Never Shall Forget The day was written by George Thomas Speer, born in a sharecroppers cabin in Fayette country Georgia in 1891, taught at shaped notes singing schools, sang at many rural singing conventions, married in 1921 & organized the Speer Quartet, over the next 15 years he trained each of his four children to sing & play instruments, gradually converting into The Singing Speer Family, he wrote many gospel songs, also including Heavens Jubilee, The Dearest Friend I Ever Had, He Is Mine And I am His

"I Never shall Forget The Day" Have you forgotten when Jesus saved you, when you had no hope within saved you .cleansed you, gave you peace & joy within, have you forgotten all the times he's came through for you, made all the rough roads smooth "when trials comes he comforts me" if you've never heard of this song, I encourage you to read through it & let it minister to you

Long years ago when out in sin I had no hope no peace within
Down on my knees in agony I prayed to Jesus & he gladly set me free
(chorus)
I NEVER SHALL FORGET THE DAY WHEN ALL THE BURDENS OF MY SOUL WERE ROLLED AWAY IT MADE ME HAPPY GLAD & FREE, ILL SING & SHOUT IT FOR HE'S EVERYTHING TO ME
Now I can feel him by my side, my feeble steps he comes to guide
When trials comes he comforts me thru faith in him over sin I have the victory
(chorus)
O sinner come to Jesus now,at his dear feet just humbly bow
Confess to him your every sin, he will save & cleanse you
Give you you peace & joy within
(chorus)

MY HEART IS HEAVY

 

we lost our  sweet little Shilo early this morning, he was one of five sweet little Chihuahuas to our sweet peaches  whom we lost  back last Fall

our pets are here for just a short time to give us joy & comfort but when death comes un expectantly, the pain can seem unbearable, he was fine as can be then all of a sudden he had no appetite, early yesterday evening he began to have pains & shortness of breath , Gus & Joe still cry for him as they go all over the house looking for him, they don’t want me out of their sight & even though they are here in my lap the house seems empty

 

 

 

  everywhere I was ,Shilo was ,in the recliner everyday at 2:00 watching our Walton's,which I couldn’t bare to sit in today, if I was sewing he’s be right there under the window soaking up sunshine,sometimes in my lap,he would be in my lap now watching me work on the computer yes this is their heater & they know it! Terry is getting ready to go out of town this weekend, he hasn't even left yet & already I can’t wait for him to get home , it will be  a long week & I’ll just have to keep myself busy

"Word of God Speak

In this fast paced world that we live, we must find time to be still & hear God speak 

Psalms 46:10 Be still, and know that I am  God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth

Little Dresses for Africa

 

we will be sewing at the church today ,I look forward to meeting two new faces that will be joining us, God is moving mightily in this ministry,we’ve had donations of fabrics, we’ve had a lady from Mobile send 27 dress’s & another in Georgia making plans & countless others that we meet on a  daily  bases that ask can they come & help , we are less than 200 away from our 400 goal to send to three orphanages in Africa in just a few short weeks

we took a small step of faith & God opened the door & we have been blessed beyond measure!

BELIEVE THE IMPOSSIABLE

how true is that statement! our helping Hands Ministry is growing, this past week, we had a lady contact us telling us she wanted to help but lived in Mobile, she made & sent us  27 dresses! God is good!

through facebook a lady contacted us with a donation of fabric, we had no idea the magnitude of the blessing when we got there, she has a shop & also works out of her home, she donated around 30 yards of fabrics, God is good!  we shared how were getting ready to send 400 to three different orphanages in Africa ,one being Uganda  which lead to her sharing about a lady she knew that is in Uganda & wrote this book,oh course we had to race to the bookstore to get one

you can also buy this book from Amazon.com click the link & read through the pages of this inspiring story of why a young high school girl would give up everything to live in Uganda
