OKC Memorial

Things have been quiet here lately. I love the weather, especially the mornings! I have been working on a Heritage book for a friend. It started a little slow but is coming along nicely. It will be the first digital book I have completed. I hope to show parts of it when I am done. Sadie has been busy with school and getting her knee healed. Shelby works her shifts on the floor, helps with surgeries and takes her turn in the ER. Jared has been working long days planting wheat. Terry has been on the road quite a bit the last few weeks. Oh yes, Izzy has been making sure the squirrels aren't spending too much time in the backyard. It's a tough job but someone has to do it! Took a couple of days last week and went to OKC with Terry. The weather was so nice we walked down to the Memorial Site again. It was so pretty and peaceful. It is still hard to believe that someone could justify doing such a horrible thing.

A BIBLE THAT IS FALLING APART USUALLY BELONGS TO SOMEONE WHO IS NOT.

The better you know God, the more you will trust Him.

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

Although you cannot change the past, God can help you change what your doing with it. The changes He makes in you can certainly change the future.

Where we love is home - where our feet may leave but not our hearts.
Oliver W. Holmes

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us.
Ralph W. Emerson

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

Be strong and of good courage; do not be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.
Joshua 1:9

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

Hope is the thing with feathers, that perches in the soul and sings the tune without words and never stops at all.
Emily Dickenson

May you have enough happiness to make you sweet, enough trials to make you strong, enough sorrow to keep you human, enough hope to make you happy.
Author Unknown

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

Realize that true happiness lies within you. Waste no time and effort searching for peace and contentment and joy in the world outside. Remember that there is no happiness in having or in getting, but only in giving. Reach out. Share. Smile. Hug. Happiness is a perfume you cannot pour on others without getting a few drops on yourself.
Og Mandino

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

In the rush of daily living it is easy to forget all the remarkable people, real or ficitonal, who have been part of your life. But if you just imagine they are near for a moment, you will realize that anyone who ever touched your heart is always with you, patiently waiting to emanate warmth and support whenever you remember to think of them.
Barbara Sher

Let us be grateful to people who make us happy; they are the charming gardeners who make our souls blossom.
Marcel Proust

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

Where there is faith, there is love;
Where there is love, there is peace;
Where there is peace, there is God;
And where there is God; there is no need.
Leo Tolstoy

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

Happiness cannot be traveled to, owned, earned, worn or consumed. Happiness is the spiritual experience of living every minute with love, grace, and gratitude.
Denis Waitley

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

Every now and again take a good look at something not made by hands-a moutain, a star, the turn of a stream. There will come to you wisdom and patience and solace and, above all, the assurance that you are not alone in the world.
Sidney Lovett

Life is an opportunity, benefit from it.
Life is beauty, admire it.
Life is bliss, taste it.
Life is a dream, realize it.
Life is a challenge, meet it.
Life is a duty, complete it.
Life is a game, play it.
Life is a promise, fulfill it.
Life is sorrow, overcome it.
Life is a song, sing it.
Life is a struggle, accept it.
Life is a tragedy, confront it.
Life is an adventure, dare it.
Life is luck, make it.
Life is too precious, do not destroy it.
Life is life, fight for it.
Mother Teresa
