Impressions

So..... today I've discovered that someone blocked me
       from seeing their Facebook page....
I know what you're thinking...
       why do I even care???

And that is what bothers me....
       why do I care?
Why am I trying to think about past things I've posted...
       could that person have been offended??
I ask my husband that question... my step daughter...
       what did I do??

So why do we care so much about what other peope think??
I wish I could be one of those people who
       really and truely do not care...
But I am not... 
    I am one of the sensitive people
        who just wants to be liked and accepted by all...

I guess it's our human design that drives our love of acceptance...
        and our fear of not being accepted...
I guess that It's time in my life to start letting go...
     to just accept life as it comes... 
   learn to appreciate those who want me in their lives...
      and accept those who choose not to...

I have to remember that is itsn't acceptance here on this earth that matters...
    it's acceptance from a great and loving God...
       and he doesn't block anyone from his love or Word...
everyone is always welcome.aa

God Makes the Impossible Possible

I am always amazed at how Big my God is...
      things that we think are impossible...
         are easy for him to do.

My husband had a time (about 6-7 years) where he didn't see his girls...
  after many prayers from many people...
     his older daughter contacted him online...
   now that she was on her own and not living with her mother
      she wanted her father back in her life.

About six months later,  the older daughter felt that it was getting too
    dangerous for her sister to be with the mom
      so we drove up to get her, had to get through the court system
         for custody...and she's been her with us...
  Doing great in school... having opportunities for her future...
      all because God works in impossible situations.

The older daughter has been here visiting with our little 10 month old grandchild...
    she's found her faith a few years ago and is still new 
        at this God thing...
Her husband joined her here this weekend...
   Not  only did HE go to church with us, but his grandmother, aunt and another relative came 
     to come to the beach and visit...
       and they joined us too!!!

God can move where we cannot.    Sometimes we have to pray....
     step back.....    and let him MOVE.....
     
Think your friend/husband/relative/child will never come to God????  Pray on it.

God deals with the things we think are impossible...
I''ve seen marriages healed...relationships restored, jobs found, sickness healed, cars provided for ministry... lives and hearts being changed...
        all because God moves
           where we cannot ....


He was...

       He is...

             He will always be....

God.  

This  photo is the first Fathers Day that my husband has had BOTH his daughters with him...never give up ... God  can do the impossible.
