God and Fathers
When I invited God inside,
The humble dwellings where I'd hide,
I worried there was room about,
Inside the space that I'd laid out.
Like Daddy's head within the halls,
Of forts I'd made with cardboard walls,
Not knowing at the time that he,
Extended more than I could see.
For he was there! I saw his eyes,
And so it came as great surprise,
His hands could act outside my view,
To be in other places too!
But God and Fathers have the means,
Of being there in many scenes.
When life makes inroads to our joy,
It's good to be God's little boy.
My father kept my hand in his,
Until I learned where danger is,
And even though I may be grown,
This child of God is not alone.
In all the places that I roam,
But mainly in my humble home,
You'll think I am alone in there,
But God's around me, everywhere.

I had talked to yorkie earlier and they were coming to help her shower so we only talked a few minutes.
She just called me back after her shower. She still has a sense of humor She gave me permission to tell you all that since she cant comb her hair that she is growing dreadlocks. See, shes still funny. She cheered me up a whole lot. She cant wait to get online. She asked me about todays thread. (Amy’s Place). I told her what I could. I did tell her there were 459 posts on her prayer thread and she could not believe it.
I asked her why the nurses couldnt straighten out her hair and she said they were too busy and couldnt do that for all patients.
Her voice breaks a little now and then but all in all, shes doing as well as can be expected. I know the Lord is providing her much strength. And prayers are being answered, too!
Wishing all here a Blessed Sunday!
