Thank You, Jane.
I’m going though a long process but I’m pleased with what is happening. ALS is a long process but I’m greatfull for the long prosessed that takes place.
I had a guest today that created a few ramps for wheel chairs and motorized scooters at our house.
The VA, because I’m a veteran, is on top of things for me.
I have a few appointments scheduled in the next few weeks.
Thank you all for your prayers offered up to Our Great Lord.
I’m at peace with what happens in our future.
Praise The Lord!!!

Learn To Wait On God
Oct 8, 2014
Read: Psalm 62:1-8
Cha Sa-soon, a 69-year-old Korean woman, finally received her driving license after 3 years of trying to pass the written test. She wanted the license so she could take her grandchildren to the zoo.
She was persistent in what is normally an instant world. When we want something and cannot get it, we often complain and demand. At other times, we give up and move on if what we want cannot be quickly gratified. Wait is a word we hate to hear! Yet, many times the Bible tells us that God wants us to wait on Him for the right timing.
Waiting on God means patiently looking to Him for what we need. David recognized why he had to wait on the Lord. First, his salvation came from Him (Ps. 62:1). He learned that no one else could deliver him. His only hope was in God (v.5), for God alone hears our prayers (v.8).
Our prayers often revolve around asking God to hurry up and bless what we want to do. What if Gods answer to us is simply, Be patient. Wait upon Me? We can pray with David: Listen to my voice in the morning, Lord. Each morning I bring my requests to you and wait expectantly (Ps. 5:3 nlt). We can trust His response, even if it doesnt come in the time we expect.
When we call out to You, O Lord,
And wait for answers to our prayer,
Give us the patience that we need
And help us sense Your love and care. Sper
The bottom line of every prayer should be, Your will be done.
This psalm is divided into two sections (vv.1-4 and vv.5-8) with almost identical wording in both (vv.2,6). Each section begins with the affirmation that Davids soul waits silently for God (vv.1,5), and in both David describes Him as a rock. Because of God, David will not be moved (vv.2,6-7). Though David speaks to himself in the opening verses of each section, he moves on to address others in later verses. In verses 3-4, he addresses those who stand against him with a warning that they will be defeated. And in verse 8, he encourages the people of God to trust Him for refuge and protection.

Happy Warm Fuzzy Wednesday
To Amy's Place
CURIOUS KITTENS
We are curious, flat faced, fuzzy, blue eyed Kittens
Looking for a place to play and keep safe our mittens
From the many things that are spread across this table
Fighting the urge to explore and get messy as best as we are
able
Oh, it was an uphill struggle as you might guess
With twins Penelope and Nicole making themselves a pest
Batting around the small round things called Cherries
While snowball Misty and I climbed inside our short, protective
aeries
Not to be outdone in their cocaphony of fun
The twins spied towers twice as tall as Misty's and mine
For them, Bigger is Better and always a find
Like silvery springs, they stretched and suddenly unwound
Slipping into their tall towers amidst triumphant sounds
Only to be fooled by the Humans who had set the table
By cups that stack to form two taller Towers of Babel
Now the twins' folly will be the stuff of Feline Fables!
Jack Deth ~ 10/23/10.
I Wish You A Wonderful Autumn Day
