Bad manners

Oh I have had such bad manners here folks. So sorry that I'm neglecting response to your wonderful comments . No excuse just poor manners. Please forgive me.

You matter, each and everyone of you. Your hearts are dear, your minds full of great ideas, beautiful articulate ideas.
The spirit within you that, who you really are part, your precious.
I have been so silent so often and unresponsive, yes there are many reasons, tasks and time for others here that pull at me. You do matter.
All the kindness you afford me really does make a difference in my life. I hope that our corner of the world blesses you.
Dash does not like his image on post here. So I am respecting that. Such a great kid. Dove is growing up lightning fast. She will be an amazing woman I am sure.
My mind is tired and thoughts become lazy by the end of the day.
I am sorry my laziness neglects the acknowledgment of how dear you all are to me.

'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"
