'A woman's heart should be so hidden in Christ
That a man should have to seek Him first to find her.'
When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not shouting 'I'm clean living,'
I'm whispering 'I was lost, Now I'm found and forgiven.'
When I say... 'I am a Christian' I don't speak of this with pride.
I'm confessing that I stumble and need Christ to be my guide.
When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not trying to be strong.
I'm professing that I'm weak and need His strength to carry on.
When I say.. 'I am a Christian' I'm not bragging of success.
I'm admitting I have failed and need God to clean my mess.
When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not claiming to be perfect,
My flaws are far too visible, but God believes I am worth it.
When I say... 'I am a Christian' I still feel the sting of pain...
I have my share of heartaches, so I call upon His name.
When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not holier than thou,
I'm just a simple sinner Who received God's good grace, somehow!
This was given to me for the third time in just a few weeks.
Zephaniah 3:17 NLT
"For the LORD your God has arrived to live among you. He is a mighty savior. He will rejoice over you with great gladness. With his love, he will calm all your fears. He will exult over you by singing a happy song."
What warm hearts you all offer
Thank you all for the kindness you have shown me with every Award. I am embraced. You Are a blessing.

Donetta, this is Eddie. I wanted to let you know about Denise before I go to work. So sorry your calls were missed last night, thanks for your love and concern. We did not get home from the hospital till after 2A.M. She does not feel well at all, they put her on an I.V., due to her being severely dehydrated because her blood sugars are over 600. The kidney infection is really bad, making her so sick. They put her on some strong antibiotics. Her eyes are really hurting her also, they told her to go see another eye specialist thursday at 3:15. She has to go see her regular doctor today at 2:40 for more blood work, and urine check. Please keep her in your prayers, she loves you so much, like a sister. Bless you. She is resting, and I am going to work. My mom is staying with her.
i stopped by here to see about Denise and found this nice note from Eddie. We all knew that something was wrong. I have been praying for her but knew that there was a problem. Carolyn has been keeping me up on Denise. Let me know if you hear anything else . Sandy.....
