I Remember

A quick trip to walmart that leads to a trip down memory lane.
As we approach the exit I go straight ahead instead of taking the turn back to our camper. My husband looks at me puzzled and asks where are you going? We reach the old buildings with bars on the windows and a haunting eerie feeling overcomes him and he asks what is this place? I reach into my soul and explain that this is the grounds of the Yankton state hospital. I was brought here when I was 12 or 13 years old, probes strapped to my head, my mother seeking an excuse and a diagnosis so she could explain away everything because I was crazy... She asking Dr. about sterilization seeking to end any hope of my having children for I was to evil and vile and God help us If I reproduced. I had a big God looking after me and there was no diagnosis or any other procedures to follow just a Dr telling me I was ok and that he would never consider what my mother was seeking. As the memories overtake me my biggest question is why do I and did I Love this woman ? How can a mother ? I do not understand ..

Calvary's trio and Casey Anthony

Abel and Cain
Abraham and Lot
David and saul
Peter and Judas
Does not the sheperd leave the ninety-nine sheep and pursue the one lost ?
The cross and the penitent thief.
Dare we forget the other who didn't.

The Whisper: You should fear God !
                        The choice is yours !

The woodchuck

He is a very young chap
Hour after hour he chisels away
At times the larger wood becomes swords and daggers
Some find him annoying
I am amused and amazed
His concentration and passion
Breaking the silence of the shore and the sound of the water slapping the bank

The Whisper: Seek and you shall find

Behind the scenes

Each day I am amazed at how much one can learn
Heart eyes and ears
Senses come to life
So much teaching all around
The master touch of the fisherman
The healing touch of the king
The love of a father for All his children, no strings attached
The sharing heart of a saviour

The Whisper: YAHWEH, HOLY IS YOUR NAME..

I'll Pray for you !!

Does that mean I'll pray for what you want
Does that mean I'll pray for what I want
Guess I'll pray for what Jesus wants
Selfishy I'd like to take my own requests
I am reminded of that song
I'll pray for you
It's kinda funny yet I find it rings true
Checking my prayers at the door...

Change

A friends life changes
Though we want to keep them,
They may Go.
They seek the father and the Son,
Its their answer,
The only one.
We Love them dearly.
Deeply we grieve.
Please Dear God dont have them leave.

Trail of Tears

Hearts breaking
Prayers for lives changing
Thunder and lightning
raging winds and torrential rains
Gods protection can be seen
Questions asked by those who feel forsaken
Yet though we feel forgotten
We trust and believe the promises
The son sends us to his word
His protection and comfort never ceasing
The book opens freely
The words are ever speaking
What is it we are seeking ?

The Whisper: Thus says the Lord..
