  • I just heard about this LINK tonight and thought I would share this traumatic event.

    Through my trail….(tiny in comparison to this one explained on the blog I linked)…..I’ve come to really understand that no trial slips past God.  He will NEVER leave us or forsake us.  My study in the book of Hebrews has been a tremendous encouragement and also a rebuke to my own lack of faith I have shown many times.  Have I ever woken up to this fact!   All of a sudden this very week  I’ve begun to really get hold of  what it means to be truly anchored in Christ.  When the storms come I’ve learned that I have to remember where Jesus is this very minute….and what he is doing right now….and what has he done. 
    There is more to say and share but I wanted to get this story out to you so you can pray and do what ever you think best.

    Sorry it is so sad and scary….but there is a little life coming into this world tonight and we can pray for momma and her baby and all the other children.
    Here is another LINK to their oldest son’s brand new site.

    Love to you all….I sure have missed you!!!!!

  • Praying for this most beautiful and precious family, so many tragedies this week that I’m hearing of.  The Body of Christ can hopefulloy rally together for these families as it looks like is happening.

    So glad you loved the video, isn’t it something?  My husband watched it the other day and shook his head, visibly touched.  He said,  “That’s the gospel, that’s the entire gospel”  We don’t understand why more preachers can’t get hold of the nitty gritty and truly warn people.  It is so disheartening sometimes. 

    I know for myself, I feel that in my area I am receiving very, very little support. Lately it’s been in our faces, even our homeschool support group.  It’s literally in our faces.  You know exactly the type of things and the spirit of what I’m saying, and i know you understand and that’s why I’m mentioning it. 

    I feel very encouraged today because my younger daughters are so very blessed to attend a beautiful conference that only God could orchestrate.  The cost was only five dollars, and when those girls came home last night from day one, my mother’s heart was ecstatic, it was ecstatic when I heard of this church reaching out and ministering to these girls.  They provided a candlelight dinner and a young lady was even playing the harp and more along with wonderful teaching of course.  I want so much to be able to be with like-minded moms.  My heart becomes dissappointed because I feel so alone here in our area. 

    I know God is with me and of course my husband and family but it is really tough.  I don’t even understand xangaland sometimes.  People seem very erratic to me.  We try to reach out and give of our time, and it seems it’s one slap in the face after another at times. 

    I appreciate your comment dear friend, it was so sweet.  And I think you are a love.  Hugs and Sisterly love,   ~Amelia :love: 

  • susan,

    the classes you and elisabeth are taking sound wonderful.  i would love them, and so wish i were closer so i could tag along with you two.  i just know we would have fun together with anything we did. 

    do you or elisabeth have any cookbooks from the 1800′s?  i think i have one.  finding things like that here on the west coast is not easy, at least i haven’t found it to be.  women were not a big part of the west until well after the gold rush era, so not a lot of cookbooks from that era. 

    where is oregon are your aunt and uncle?  i would, of course, encourage you to make a trip out here.  i have encouraged my family to make trips here to see mom while she will still know them, or at least know them after we tell her who they are.  when my mom gets company she is on cloud nine.  she loves it.  my middle sister will be here in may to help with her while phil is having surgery.  it will be good for my sister to have a visit with mom, and helpful for me to have her here.

    i hope you are feeling better and better each day.

    blessings and lots of love, mari
