Miracles

“He performs wonders that cannot be fathomed, miracles that cannot be counted.” ~ Job 5:9

When US Airways flight 1549 went down in the Hudson River recently, I—like so many others—watched in awe to see everyone on board survive. A crash like no other, the image in which most of the people stood on the wings of the slow-sinking craft demonstrated a surefire miracle, God’s hand of protection, to say nothing of the captain’s glider skills. And strangely enough, the people looked as though they were standing on water.

The whole ordeal seemed surreal, almost textbook-like, right out of crew training: The impossible ditching where everyone survives.

In the days that followed, one “Today Show” broadcast featured a self-proclaimed born-again Christian woman who gave accounts of people praying, even the flight attendants. This touched my heart immensely because it was so personal. As a flight attendant with US Airways for 16 years, I prayed over many airplanes and passengers. And I know prayer works, even in the workplace. It touches the heart of God. It evokes lifelines of miracles.

I have been in four airplane emergencies myself, where I wasn’t sure what the exact outcome would be. But I knew the Lord was with me no matter what. And in the instances where all I had was God and, as I looked before me, a whole lot of people whom I might have to save and rescue, God became my closest confidant, my most trusted friend and my strongest rock. I saw many miracles. And I knew others were praying, like those who watched on television, including my parents during one such occasion. And my cohorts who prayed in prayer groups, Bible studies and prayer chains in US Airways' offices and break rooms.

Awesome isn’t it—the power and love of God in action!

Who's praying in your office? What prayer points has God given you? What miracles do you and those around you need? How about your company? God is surely big enough and knows just how to bring you in safely. Will you trust Him? Will you let Him guide you and direct your path? Is He your rock?

This morning I just really was touched by this story.The news
media is always on top of things.But as you and I know Our Gracious
God is always ahead of us all. The passengers on flight 1549 lives
will never be the same.The most touching part of this story it looked like the passengers were standing on water.They really could have been..

Look Back Through The Years

Looking through old photos and wondering where

all the yearshave gone. As our children are young we

enjoy each and everyday of their lifes. It seems like

yesterday that Chad and Ryan wereConnor and Coopers age.

I have been so blessed with my boys.They both are married

have chosen wonderfuls ladies and that is always a

mothers concern.Who will our children marry. Erin & Ryan

have only been married one year this past November.

Chad & Kelli just celebrated their ten wonderful years

of wedded bliss. Through Chad and Kelli we have

Connor and Cooper. I guess what this all means is

that I am a happy mother and grandmother. This

is shared from my heart as I look back through

the years.

Just alook back for me today.

Have A Great Day!

Look At These Beautiful Smiles!!!

Cooper with this precious little smile is

trying to decide what he is

fixing to get into..

Connor already for bed..Look at that beautiful smile.
These are some pictures of Cooper and Connor.
Connor had just had his bath and was all ready for

bed. This one of Cooper was the morning after.
The boys have a room here at mamaw's
which makes it so easy to keep them.
Cooper was with me Monday and he learned to go
up the stairs. Oh gosh mamaw was worn out.
Connor is planning to spend the night with me
Friday night. I feel like I have neglected them with
pictures of Bella. These are once

again my beautiful grandsons.

Little Things Bring So Much Joy

MEET BELLA

So cozy in Bella new puppy bed!!!!

All in Pink just like little girls like..

This is the one on the internet. Adorable..

I do have this same case

but Bella did not look like she had enough room.

Today is Pink Saturday again. Thanks to

Beverly for hosting this wonderful event

for all the pink lovers. Let me say this has been

a fun week for me. Last Friday I recieved a 3 month

old ShihTzu I had been wanting to find a pretty

older cat maybe that needed a home but no luck.

Cajun is my 7 year old solid black pekingese.

He gets so lonelyduring the day. Let me say not

anymore with Bella he hasspend this week watching,

chasing and opening that Bella would be leaving.
But A Guardin Angel called and asked if
I would like a Shih-tzu of course I just hollared.
So around 7:00 Jen brought her to me,
a guy at the base here locally was being
transfered and he still had three puppies left.
Make long story short he asked for good homes
for them and a very small price for a registered

ShihTzu can you believe. This has been a fun

week with Bella. She is very loving,great

peronality. Seems to go with the flow. I looked

on the web for ideas for Bella a bed. This is one

that I thought was to cute.I found and old suitcase
at Penny Pinchers this week. 2 pink blankets
at the Salvation Army. I haven't painted the
suitcaseyet it is just too cold. When I finish
it will be real girly for Bella.
That is my Pink Saturday hope you may get
a idea if your needing a dog bed for your pet.
I am glad you stopped by. Please stop again.
Have a great day!!
