8.20.12 Evening

I want to start by saying thank you to everyone who reads my blog and thank you to those who send me texts or emails to tell me what you think... REALLY it feels good to hear what people think... good or bad.. Apparently last night's blog was a keeper.. Some days I feel even more blessed because there are things that make writing this blog even easier...I am grateful for what I am learning from PM and grateful for the opportunity to talk about my friend and what his family is living with after the loss of their son....  

A friend's son is having another procedure in his young (6yrs) life.  He and his family live with the daily needs of a child with Periventricular Leukomalacia and Cerebral Palsy.  8 months ago, he had a muscle lengthening procedure, tomorrow he will go in for another Botox procedure to help reduce the pain he feels.  My friend Meghan (I have known since high school is amazing), posted this poster on her page and is an inspiration to us all....  I ask that you pray for Timmy and his family.


We talk about asking God for things and wonder if we are heard. 

1  Hear my cry O God;
       listen to my prayer.
2  From the end of the earth I call to you,
       when my heart is faint.

You know that feeling, (I do not like this feeling) when you're sick and you blow your nose then lose your hearing... I sit here (right now) with a hollow sound around me and it made me stop and think, do people think because (they think) they don't get answers, that perhaps sometimes all the cries for help hollow out the sounds in God's ears?  Perhaps it's not a matter of whether or not we are heard, but whether or not we have shown our willingness to do for ourselves....

    Lead me to the rock
        that is higher than I;
 3  for you are my refuge,
        a strong tower against the enemy.

In order to provide us with answers, we need to SHOW our Faith and Trust...

  8  So I will always sing praises to your name,
        as I pay my vows day after day.
-PSALM 61

Wishing you a Tremendous Tuesday and that tomorrow you thank God for your ability to walk without pain and remember Timmy in your prayers.
