My goal with this blog is to keep a journal type account of my walk with Christ, my children and my grandchildren. To share what wisdom I have been given and have learned. To share the occasional recipe, photograph, funny story and possibly a teary one. God's mercies are new every morning. We each get a fresh, clean slate each day. So grab a cup of coffee and enjoy!

Taking Care Of Me...
Since my husband and I have divorced I have had to learn to depend on God to be my husband. Unlike earthly husbands (none in particular) God never fails me. Oh, I fail Him but He is 100% dependable all the time. Each night when I lay down I ask Him to help me never be afraid. I haven't been. I have asked Him to please take care of things like my roof, flooding in my basement, my car etc... He has. I have had to have a little work done on my car. No biggie, just brake shoes because the squeal was horrendous. Well, after a couple of weeks the scrubbing and squeal is still there. I absolutely hate to talk to people who work on cars because I am at their complete mercy. But, I just got off the phone with the nicest lady where I had my work done and all she said was, "Sugar, you bring that thing right on back!" I had prayed very quickly right before I called that the Lord please just take care of this for me. And He did. I cannot tell you how many things that He does take care of for me. Things too numerous to list and many I probably do not even know about. I have been very healthy. I am almost never sick but since I am by myself this has been just a Godsend. When I look back over the past 18 months or so I see so many blessings in my life. God is just so good. Being single has its advantages but there are also some disadvantages. I do get to do what I want, when I want and I can eat cheerios for supper if I choose. But, on the other hand I do love to cook for people and I will say that my former husband was easy to cook for and ate everything I ever made. When I start to consider the possibility of maybe having a future husband....I get very nervous inside. But, I know that the Lord is wise and He will send the right one to me when He sees fit. Until then, I will just keep looking to the Lord for husbandly advice, protection and love like I have never known.
