Not to us, O Lord, not to us, but to your name give glory, for the sake of your steadfast love and
your faithfulness! Psalms 115:1
He must increase, but I must decrease. John 3:30
Why should I feel discouraged, why should the shadows come, Why should my heart be lonely, and long for heaven and home? When Jesus is my portion, my constant Friend is He: His eye is on the sparrow, and I know He watches me; I sing because I’m happy, I sing because I’m free;
For His eye is on the sparrow, and I know He watches me.
This an old hymn, with words to sing by-
when we offer praise to God in the midst of pain and problems, it makes our worship all the more precious and valuable in His sight.
Hebrews 13:14-16, "Through Jesus, therefore, let us continually offer to God a sacrifice of praise — the fruit of lips that confess his name."
Today, if you're hurting, give a sacrifice of praise to the Lord – Jesus will be gloriously honored because he knows your praise 'cost' something!
"Thus far the Lord has helped us" I Samuel 7:12.
God’s purposes cannot be derailed by circumstances. "He is in control"
We know all too well that none of us know what tomorrow holds, but in reality, none of us even know what tonight holds, while we sleep. It’s unnatural, against every animal instinct in our bodies to release ourselves into that reality,
but God calls us there to that place where He is. “Lose your life and you will find it”, Jesus said.
As life continues and "with it struggles" and with them "hope", we find ourselves losing our grips on the things we don’t even know we are holding so tightly.
And yet, we finally find our rest, secure in arms more capable, more loving, more alive than our own.

I'm asking for Prayer that the Lord would continue to show himself through Dad and I and that Our Lord Jesus Christ would continue to receive all of the Honor Praise and Glory in our life He has purposed for us to walk out.
That our Lord would continue to open up opportunities for us to exalt His Name high and lifted up.
Pray for me as I continue to be Dad's helper in His hard days, and all of the regular daily tasks.
Help me not to murmur or complain, but to do all of this with much love.
Pray that I would have great patience, gentleness,tenderness,kindness, and much carefulness in all my words and behavior and actions. This is a daily challenge!!!
I struggle each and every day and continue to be a work of mess in progress.
for it is by His sweet gentle kindness that leads me to repentance
for it is by His sweet gentle kindness that leads me to repentance
I ask the Lord to grant me strength to be a godly loving wife each day!
I have to be honest, there are some day's I don't know if I'm coming or going.
I thank Jesus when I fall and fail miserably, He is always there to pick me up,
{and a goooood strong cup of coffee is a treat when I'm all picked up!}
{and a goooood strong cup of coffee is a treat when I'm all picked up!}
Pray for Dad as he has not been feeling well for the past several days.
Pray for increased strength and energy and great comfort!
Dad's Inner cranial pressure is causing head pain and causing some great effects in and through His whole body,much burning on the left side of His face, ear, chest, arm and His whole left side very numb, no energy,very,very tired.
His arm and leg are so numb he does not realize if he hits them and causes himself injury,
so sometimes we can have a "bloody mess"!
{If you could hear me I'm speaking in an English accent} Hummmmmmmmmmm!
Thank the Lord He Helps us weather every storm.
Our Lord's Grace is sufficient today.
We pray that God will pour out His incomparably great riches in Christ Jesus – Pray for increased strength and energy and great comfort!

Psalm 73:22-27 is a wonderful reminder to keep holding tightly onto the Lord's hand in the months to come:
"I am always with you [God]; you hold me by my right hand. You guide me with your counsel, and afterward you will take me into glory. Whom have I in heaven but you? And earth has nothing I desire besides you. My flesh and my heart may fail, but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever."
Well as I did not post this yesterday, Our Lord is always faithful----------Dad woke up with a Joyful heart and a refreshing today Praise you Jesus.
