Welcom Melony you are in, glad to have you

I just went back to page 1 Nelly got me thinking about anniverserys, This thread was started Sept 14 - 06 we missed celebrating our first anniversary, I am feeling like celebrating, we filled 44 pages in a 365 days, I am proud of our accomplishment, I wonder how many of those that joined are still on the sight, but weater they are still here or not theay are still in our prayers, and I bet we are still in theirs that is the type of people we are.

AnnetteW - good to see you again, thanks for thinking of me. Back and stomach problems would cause anxiety or the other way around. I so believe mom's anxiety caused hers. That is one reason I bought in to this program, watching my mother just get sicker and sicker, I knew I needed to try something else! before I followed her down that hill.

It is the changeing of the season This was my grandmothers birthday, we had her 96 years, she was borne in 1904, she was a big influence in my life. today at 9;51 this morning the zero tilt to the vernal equinox and autumnal equinox. the first day of fall, I didn't think of it in time I love balancing an egg on it's end, and spring too. it is so cool how God tilts the earth, to give us our seasons, there is a tilt in our lives too. Today every thing was virtical for a few minuites. I do preffer spring, but fall is pretty cool too. the wind is blowing hard here today, but I saw wolly worms all over the house yesterday, the animals, the insects they feel the eqinox and they know it is time to prepare for winter. to find shelter, and food to get through, some just lay their eggs, and die. a new generation comeing in the spring.

I watched a great Movie this morning "If God were the Sun" I cryed throug it all, I need to buy that one all my Dorcors tell me to cry more, and that movie helped me do that better than any one I have found, I have read how tears clean the sole. I know I always feel better affter I cry, but I was raised Marine and crying was not allowed. so they tell me I have years of tears held back, and crying them out will help me cope with today. I think they are right, I feel much better since that movie, good for a head cold too.

So celebrate it's a new day, in a new season, and God's Grace is new every day. God Bless your day, in Jesus name amen

Cheri,
God knows who is still here and who isnt, thats all that matters. Cause he said when two gather together , he is there also...
God has touched so many here, changed lives, and given us each the courage to watch the sunrise and the sunset each day..
He has given us strength to continue on, regardless of trials and through each season of life, we grow deeper in the knowledge how much he trully Loves us unconditionally!!!
What an awesome God we serve!!! Love ya Nelly:)

Welcome Morgan! great to have you with us I love your attitude, we can do this, it is awsome,

I was reading through the past year on this thread at how far I have come, last fall at this time I was so upset over the branding, and the condition of me houwe. Today I am facing the same thing, it seems more has accumulated than last year, and it isn't bothering me enough, I washed one window yesterday, started picking up in the garage, I can't even work up a good stress to get the job done. Nelly was so much help to calm me down back then. and I was 2 weeks away from the day, now Saturday is the branding there are 30 people comeing to my house for lunch, I will set the menue today, as I will go to the store tomarrow, for supplyes, that will take all day as it is 80 miles away. and my list is longer than I can stand or walk any more. Today I hope to finnish cleaning the garage. So I can concentrate on the cooking for the rest of the week. Our new hired hand's wife Lesa, likes to bake pies, she did a great job for the sprin branding in May I have asked her, she is realy down in her back, so Please Pray for HER BACK. she says she can make 4 pies and 3 dozen hamberger buns, she loves to bake and she can use the money, feedng 4 teenagers, the beef we give them only goes so far. The weather chanel looks like the weather is going to be nice, So Every One Please Agree with me, for a perfect day on Sat. around 65* in the morning with a breze for the calves, warming up to 75- 80* for lunch. I know we can do it. I have confidence again, This year is so much better. I haven't been this realxed a week before my branding for 5 years. and 5 years ago my house was already clean, and ready for the day by now. I am loveing my newly aquired freedom from guilt,
life happens and it has been happening to me a little to fast, I haven't been doing very well at keeping up but that is all turning around, now that it isn't stressing me, I know I can do it all in time.

To day on Joyce Myer's calender; Act on the Word
Good intentions are not obedience, Action taken based on God's Word is obedience. Don't procrastinate!
<span class="ev_code_RED">Now therefore, if you will obey my voice indeed, and keep my covenent, then ye shall be a peculiar treasure unto me above all people.</span> - Exidus 19;5 KJV

a year ago that would have put a guilt trip on me, procrastination is my biggest downfall. but I won't let it should on me any more. now reading that just confirms what the Lord has been leading me to do for the past 2 weeks, it is my second wittness that God has OK'd getting this heal spurr removed. I have been procrastinating nearly a year since my foot started hurting, I have been going to my holistic Dr. and my MD, both have told me get it taken off. I have such a FEAR of hospitals, and particularly surgary, I can not wrap my mind around letting any one put me out, and me not know what is happening, being out of control, surrendering my self to the wims of others terrifies me. I don't trust them to fix anything, I had a toenail removed when I was 11 and it is so ugly today, I have had 3 c-sections. each time I stayed awake, They did save my life, and I did get 2 beutiful children, and 35 years of migrains. 1 othroscopic, knee srugary I stayed, awake, but they made me stay in the hospital over night I did not want to do that. The nurses wanted me to do something I did not want to do, I had such a panic attack that time they had to bring me a paper bag to breah in, I was just waithing for my husband to come and take me home. He had a problem with the cattle and he was 4 hours late, cell phones do not make any diffrence, he doesn't think to let me know anything, "he knowes what he is doing and I can just guess", not again, I just can't rely on him to put me first, that steels my joy. That reminds me I need to tell him I need him to use the phone when there is a change in plans, He just might change, he has certainly been changeing, when I tell him my needs. That is an action I need to make too.

It is 4;am. I am sitting here working up the courage to call and make an appointment, with a phisical therapest in our local hospital, 40 miles away, If he can do it with the machine he has then I won't need surgary, I am praying they can blast it off with out cutting in. My friends think I am silly, but I am terrified. I have been on the board of this hospitall, I know they do their best, but I don't trust any of it. I know I need to trust God's saving grace, I know it! but the tears are pooring down my face, that is a good thing I've been told, the shell around my heart is cracking and when water can come out, Light can come in. I know my FEAR is getting to me with this problem befor me, For the first time in my life when I was here alone last week I locked the doors. Pray for me courage, & confidence, to surrender my self to the will of God even if it means going to the hospital. I know it is His will for me to go. I have had so many arrows pointing there. God has give me grace all year, to get prepared to make this growth spurt, but a year of limping on this is long enough it is time to grow in this. I am so far behind in my work, because I can't be on it very long at a time. Even though it has brought me here to this chair at the computer, posting on this forum wich has helpe so much, it is time to do it to stop procrastinating. and get it done.

Dear God give us this day our dayly life, and deliver us from evil, for Thine is the Power, and the Glory, forever. awmen.
