Here we are again, Mothers day . At least here in the States. I just want to say "HAPPY MOTHERS DAY to all of you mothers who watch over Gods small ones", I'd say children but we are all Gods children. And a happy mothers day to my mom who is gone from this world into the next. She Has been gone since 2001 , I still feel like it was yesterday. I love you mom. I miss your advice and your fudge
you are the best. I thank God He gave you to me. I wish I could have been as great a mother as you. You never disabled your children, no, not one of us, Thank you.
To all you moms out there God bless you with patience's,understanding and words of wisdom. Stand firm in your groundings ,keep your word to them. They learn from you. Be sure to enable them , give them room to grow ,make their own mistakes and feel the consequences, and then show them the way.Love them no matter what. Through God all is possible ask Him to show you what you need to know and trust Him. Have a great day. Bye bye
Sundays- Words of faith
I haven't written in a long time. I am not going to write today either. I am copy and pasting a part of the Bible today to share because it made me so happy and at peace with the Lord . I hope it does the same for you . Enjoy:

Ezekiel 18 (New Living Translation)
Ezekiel 18
The Justice of a Righteous God
1 Then another message came to me from the Lord: 2 “Why do you quote this proverb concerning the land of Israel: ‘The parents have eaten sour grapes, but their children’s mouths pucker at the taste’? 3 As surely as I live, says the Sovereign Lord, you will not quote this proverb anymore in Israel. 4 For all people are mine to judge—both parents and children alike. And this is my rule: The person who sins is the one who will die.
5 “Suppose a certain man is righteous and does what is just and right. 6 He does not feast in the mountains before Israel’s idols[a] or worship them. He does not commit adultery or have intercourse with a woman during her menstrual period. 7 He is a merciful creditor, not keeping the items given as security by poor debtors. He does not rob the poor but instead gives food to the hungry and provides clothes for the needy. 8 He grants loans without interest, stays away from injustice, is honest and fair when judging others, 9 and faithfully obeys my decrees and regulations. Anyone who does these things is just and will surely live, says the Sovereign Lord.
10 “But suppose that man has a son who grows up to be a robber or murderer and refuses to do what is right. 11 And that son does all the evil things his father would never do—he worships idols on the mountains, commits adultery, 12 oppresses the poor and helpless, steals from debtors by refusing to let them redeem their security, worships idols, commits detestable sins, 13 and lends money at excessive interest. Should such a sinful person live? No! He must die and must take full blame.
14 “But suppose that sinful son, in turn, has a son who sees his father’s wickedness and decides against that kind of life. 15 This son refuses to worship idols on the mountains and does not commit adultery. 16 He does not exploit the poor, but instead is fair to debtors and does not rob them. He gives food to the hungry and provides clothes for the needy. 17 He helps the poor, does not lend money at interest, and obeys all my regulations and decrees. Such a person will not die because of his father’s sins; he will surely live. 18 But the father will die for his many sins—for being cruel, robbing people, and doing what was clearly wrong among his people.
19 “‘What?’ you ask. ‘Doesn’t the child pay for the parent’s sins?’ No! For if the child does what is just and right and keeps my decrees, that child will surely live. 20 The person who sins is the one who will die. The child will not be punished for the parent’s sins, and the parent will not be punished for the child’s sins. Righteous people will be rewarded for their own righteous behavior, and wicked people will be punished for their own wickedness. 21 But if wicked people turn away from all their sins and begin to obey my decrees and do what is just and right, they will surely live and not die. 22 All their past sins will be forgotten, and they will live because of the righteous things they have done.
23 “Do you think that I like to see wicked people die? says the Sovereign Lord. Of course not! I want them to turn from their wicked ways and live. 24 However, if righteous people turn from their righteous behavior and start doing sinful things and act like other sinners, should they be allowed to live? No, of course not! All their righteous acts will be forgotten, and they will die for their sins.
25 “Yet you say, ‘The Lord isn’t doing what’s right!’ Listen to me, O people of Israel. Am I the one not doing what’s right, or is it you? 26 When righteous people turn from their righteous behavior and start doing sinful things, they will die for it. Yes, they will die because of their sinful deeds. 27 And if wicked people turn from their wickedness, obey the law, and do what is just and right, they will save their lives. 28 They will live because they thought it over and decided to turn from their sins. Such people will not die. 29 And yet the people of Israel keep saying, ‘The Lord isn’t doing what’s right!’ O people of Israel, it is you who are not doing what’s right, not I.
30 “Therefore, I will judge each of you, O people of Israel, according to your actions, says the Sovereign Lord. Repent, and turn from your sins. Don’t let them destroy you! 31 Put all your rebellion behind you, and find yourselves a new heart and a new spirit. For why should you die, O people of Israel? 32 I don’t want you to die, says the Sovereign Lord. Turn back and live!

Jesus Loves us so much He gave His Son for our sins Believe in Him and confess with your mouth and be saved. In Jesus name I pray.
Well, Just to talk to myself
Spring is about to make an appearance again. I wonder what this year will bring. I am looking forward to a warm and early spring.There is so many things I want to do. I need to clean up the outside, you know tidy up and spray weeds stuff like that . Then finish the painting I started last year, the walls this year, the dreaded walls. And I am going to get rid of all the junk I have collected over the last ten years. Of coarse I will have to yard sale some more and get new junk.
You know was much as I love summer? It's funny because I get to hate the heat as well as I love the snow when it begins to fall and as time goes bye I want the summer heat back. If only we had spring weather and fall for five months each and winter and summer one month each. I think I would be happy. hehehehhe! I need to find something to do, a hobby,I think. Wonder what I would like to do. Maybe I will look into that. Any suggestions let me know? Well this is short and bitter sweet. Wanted you to know I was still around. Still need a new camera. God Bless and bye for now.

A Warning to all our friends and family!
My Name is Meth
Written Thursday November 17, 2005
This poem appears on the Seventh Native American Generation (SNAG) website, a magazine for and by Native youth.
SNAG Magazine: http://www.snagmagazine.com
This poem was written by a young Indian girl while she was in jail on drug charges. The young woman was addicted to meth. She fully grasped the horrors of the drug while she wrote this simple, profound poem.
The girl was released from jail, but true to her story, meth owned her. She was found dead shortly after. The needle was still in her arm --
My Name is Meth
I destroy homes, I tear families apart,
I take your children, and that's just the start.
I'm more costly than diamonds, more precious than gold,
The sorrow I bring is a sight to behold.
If you need me, remember I'm easily found,
I live all around you -
in schools and in town
I live with the rich, I live with the poor,
I live down the street, and maybe next door.
I'm made in a lab, but not like you think,
I can be made under the kitchen sink.
In your child's closet, and even in the woods,
If this scares you to death, well it certainly should.
I have many names, but there's one you know best,
I'm sure you've heard of me, my name is crystal meth.
My power is awesome, try me you'll see,
But if you do, you may never break free.
Just try me once and I might let you go,
But try me twice, and I'll own your soul.
When I possess you, you'll steal and you'll lie,
You do what you have to -- just to get high.
The crimes you'll commit for my narcotic charms
Will be worth the pleasure you'll feel in your arms.
You'll lie to your mother, you'll steal from your dad,
When you see their tears, you should feel sad.
But you'll forget your morals and how you were raised,
I'll be your conscience, I'll teach you my ways.
I take kids from parents, and parents from kids,
I turn people from God, and separate friends.
I'll take everything from you, your looks and your pride,
I'll be with you always -- right by your side.
You'll give up everything - your family, your home,
Your friends, your money, then you'll be alone.
I'll take and take, till you have nothing more to give,
When I'm finished with you, you'll be lucky to live.
If you try me be warned - this is no game,
If given the chance, I'll drive you insane.
I'll ravish your body, I'll control your mind,
I'll own you completely, your soul will be mine.
The nightmares I'll give you while lying in bed,
The voices you'll hear, from inside your head.
The sweats, the shakes, the visions you'll see,
I want you to know, these are all gifts from me.
But then it's too late, and you'll know in your heart,
That you are mine, and we shall not part.
You'll regret that you tried me, they always do,
But you came to me, not I to you.
You knew this would happen, many times you were told,
But you challenged my power, and chose to be bold.
You could have said no, and just walked away,
If you could live that day over, now what would you say?
I'll be your master, you will be my slave,
I'll even go with you, when you go to your grave.
Now that you have met me, what will you do?
Will you try me or not? It's all up to you.
I can bring you more misery than words can tell,
Come take my hand, let me lead you to hell.
This is so tragic, Let everyone you know read about it so maybe they will not do it!!!!!!!!

Snow,Snow go away
Hi ,
Things here in Lodi are so snowy. We must have a foot of snow. We were suppose to get this major snow storm today but thank the Lord we were spared. Saturday I went and decided to go and shovel the drive way, well, I ended up in the hospital. Yes me the strong one. The one who can do it all myself. Hahahaha!!!!When My grandson saw me he came over to help me. Again thank God , He noticed I was not acting right and went and got his mom by then I was in a chair and I guess she took me to the hospital. I really don't remember much . I guess it was a TIA. Not really sure about that either. But I now feel better. B/P's a little high but I guess I lucked out. Just having the Lord by my side helped. He sent Thomas over who is 12. So I want to warn everyone snow can put a lot of pressure on your body and head. Please take measures to be safe and if you are older let it melt. Pay a kid or just don't go out. We are do for more snow Sunday and Monday I hope that passes too.
This is a crazy time we live in. but it is our time . Just be safe the winter will end soon I hope. I could never of made it in the ice age. I am a freeze baby. Funny but come August I will be complaining about the heat. But what I would give for some of that right now. Till the next time be safe and remember to say your prays.
