It's around 11 p.m.  I'm tired, but not sleepy.   I posted a picture of the Quilting/Computer Studio and also one of a sunset.  I love the sunsets here.   

Mike has another VA appointment next Thursday.  It's later in the morning this time so we won't have to get up at 4 a.m.   

I'm finding a lot of cousins and friends on Facebook.  This has been a great way to get in touch with people.   We are hoping to see some of them in 2011.  We'll see how it goes.  We sort of just take it day-by-day at this point.  God knows what we need, even if we don't.  

 

God is blessing

It's been a while since my last blog entry.   We are still in Quartzsite, Arizona and love it here.   We are blessed with Christian friends and a great church family.   We keep praying for all of our children and grandchildren daily, in hopes that God is blessing them also.   Found over 100 verses now on forgiveness and I'm blown away by what God has done to forgive us.   One verse seemed to rely on our being sorry for our sins, but then again, God judges the heart and I'm not going to judge others anymore.   That has been the hardest thing for me.   God seems to have taken away the anger and bitterness from my heart and has replaced it with His love and His plan for my life.   It's awesome!     I do think we failed as parents to teach love and forgiveness, but God will teach them much better than we ever could have.   If we all had perfect lives, we wouldn't learn any of these lessons anyway.
