I do not count myself to have apprehended; but one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind and reaching those things which are ahead.

Phillipians 13:3

Dear Lord I pray that you can help me forget the bad and hurtful memories of the past. Whatever negative memory has tried to torment or control me, I release that into your hands right now. Help me to go forward to all that you have for me now and in the future. Help me to read my past like a history book, so that I can learn from it. Help me not to live there any longer.

IN LOVING MEMORY: JULY 20, 2000 - 2007

Her hands are folded

The grace of God she's known

With eyes now closed in restful sleep

He comes to take her home.......

You are still in my heart mama....

WONDERFUL things are happening in my life.......ha...ha...!!! Thank you Lord...Thank you...!!!

;) ;)

no puedo esperar -----
je ne peux pas attendre

TDAY is the day!!! I am "moving forward" ;) - had an appointment today.....

Also, my-sis-in-law just confirmed to me about the Christmas plan......I had to wait to book my tickets until after tonight's appointment.....

The Lord is awesome...He is indeed an awesome GOD!!!!

Thank you Lord, I believe and receive the blessings! AMEN!!!!

I read about how young Iraqis refugees are being forced into prostitution in Syria (outside Damascus)...my heart goes out for these girls...they are young...some are barely 13....according to the writer: the U.N relief agencies: Iraqis refugees are not allowed to work in Syria...so these girls become prostitutes to feed their families...what is called "survival sex"...

I got teary eyed - this is one of the most saddening and disheartening things that I have read....what a mess - like the writer put it: they were traumatized by the war, now victimized again...!

In the depth of winter, I finally learned that within me there lay an invincible summer

Albert Camus

French existentialist author & philosopher (1913 - 1960)

Today after church - we have a home fellowship gathering at sis J's house....

Everyone brings a little dish ......yummies...Southern comfort food in the perfect Sunday afternoon....thank you Lord for good friends..........!!!!

It has been a peaceful Saturday so far..........

My sis-in-law texted me about Christmas plan (FINALLY).....yeay....needless to say...it is gonna be a super kewl Christmas - an exotic destination.......magnificient!

THANK YOU LORD...I don't know how to thank you enough for all the blessings YOU keep providing me.....

FRIDAY is here! It would be a busy weekend for me.........

Next week is "a life changing event"....I am definitely looking forward for it! :)

I have two overseas friends that are planning to visit me in late Oct/early Nov....so let's see...I have to really adjust my schedule....after all I am still planning to visit my niece and nephew for Christmas............. ;)

An evening well spent in a cozy coffee cafe' with a trusted someone

I have a lot of reading materials to cover for my ;) ...........

“Dear friend, I am praying that all is well with you and that your body is as healthy as I know your soul is” 3 John 2 (TLB).

****SMILES all around**********

Things are moving forward....I am totally happy...the blessings came and poured down on me...thank you...thank you!!!

SMILES..... ;) ;) AMAZED....DAZZLED....OVERJOYED......

DOING CARTWHEELS...!!!!

I am moving forward...thanks for a true friend who reminded me.....

Forget about small things....focus on the future.......After discussing the following last night, I decided to move forward....... :) :) :)

Forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before." Philippians 3:13

Now, 'forget it' doesn't mean losing awareness of the event. That's amnesia! It means releasing the pain from the memory like you'd remove the poison from a snakebite. Allow all those unsettled and unsettling issues that keep holding you in the night and affecting you in the light to be broken by the power of God! If you are the injured party, forgive those who hurt you. If you did the hurting, forgive yourself - for God does. Allow His transforming power to heal your troubled emotions and cut the cord between you and your past.

Then do what Paul did, "Reaching forth unto those things which are before." God has a wonderful future for you, but you can't reach for it until you disconnect from the past. Be like Jesus who dropped His head and said, "It is finished" (Jn 19:30). It's time for that kind of benediction to be said in your life. If you're finished with where you are and you're ready for where God wants you to go, then kiss the past goodnight. Kiss it goodbye! Its grasp is broken.

HA - surprise--surprise...it is pretty quiet after all...well half a day is already gone for me...kewl...less drama....

Notre "fortune"

And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.

We actually made this...very yummy....good friends - good food - life is good!

1 can (10 3/4 oz.) condensed chicken broth
2 cups water
1 package (10 oz.) frozen chopped broccoli
1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1 cup (2 oz.) fine noodles
1 can (5 oz.) chunk chicken, flaked
4 eggs
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

In medium saucepan, combine broth, water, broccoli, and seasonings. Bring to boiling over high heat. Stir in noodles. Reduce heat to medium and cook, stirring occasionally, until noodles are tender, 10 to 12 minutes. Stir in chicken. Keep hot over low heat.

In large saucepan, bring 3 inches of water to boiling. Break eggs into small bowl. Reduce heat to simmering. Hold bowl close to water's surface and let eggs slide separately into water. Cook until whites are set and yolks begin to thicken but are not hard, 3 to 5 minutes. Pour 1 cup of the soup into each of 4 bowls. Lift eggs with slotted spoon and gently lower onto soup. Sprinkle each with 1 tablespoon of the cheese.
