A Life Uncommon: Thank you for your prayers

Thank you for your prayers

My legs are terrible painful tonight. It is my hope to serve at the elementary tomorrow. I help children with reading skills. My little small group has been without me. They do need leadership. One of the children stepped up and kept on task. I want to be able to walk so I can be there for them tomorrow.

Please remember to pray for my daughter she is to go to sleep without me beside her. My pain just will not let me lay there. Or sit here much longer.

I appreciate it. The second round of injections were very painful to the right knee and the leg is just having a fit.

I'm praying for your family dear sister. I hope you're able to get to the school today. I'm sure the kids miss you.

Hi sweetie. I am so sorry to hear about the pain you are having. I stopped over to post and let you know I so missed you at the luncheon this past week, and then to find you in a bad way with your tooth and with you knee. I just pray that God will take that pain away and give you the comfort to be able to go to the school and work with the children that you so dearly love. That is your mission work. You are wrapped in prayers my dear friend. Country hugs, Shery; November 3, 2009 at 8:20 AM

'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!

Words have power. Here are a few of my favorite sayings.

A warm cup of tea is like a cuddle with a friend.
The North American Indians have a more eloquent word for ‘friend’ than we do in English. In their language, the word for friend literally means, “the one who carries my sorrows on his back.”
Return with Honor
The sage anticipates things that are difficult while they are easy, and does things that would become great while they are small. All difficult things in the world are sure to arise from a previous state in which they were easy, and all great things from one in which they were small. Therefore the sage, while he never does what is great, is able on that account to accomplish the greatest things."
"HOME IS WHERE YOUR STORY BEGINS"
“Live so that when your children hear these words they think of you… Fairness Caring Integrity Honesty Love Trust.”
"O Lord help my words to be gracious and tender today, for tomarrow I may have to eat them."
"No man has ever been shot while doing the dishes"
