God is a Great God-All the time

OK, I don't know how many of you knew, but satan really attacked our family last week. First Tony and I were real sick with some kind of virus, then our great newphew was born 4 weeks early and was put in NICU due to pneumonia and lungs underdelveloped, and Tony's cousin who he is real close too like a sister was put in hospital for losing blood and doctor's could not find out why. OK now the awesome God part. Of course we were healed quickly. The baby (Bryant Carson Collingsworth) we got word yesterday he is doing great and may go home sooner than they predicted. Now the most awesomest news, Jackie(Tony's cousin) they found out that she had no bone marrow that is was just gel. They ran several tests and we got the call last night that she has a very rare disease called Hairy Cell Leukemia, which is cureable with just a few chemo treatments. Ok I am crying with joy tears right now. satan comes to steal kill and detroy, God comes in gives life and to give it more abundantly.

"Too deep but needed to say"


OK we had this great pep talk the other morning at our pep rally at work. It was about "Wilson". I hope some of you have seen the movie "Castaway". Wilson was the supporting actor in this movie and a great job he did. Anyway, we talked about the fear of the media bringing fear and hopelessness to people that listens to them. "Wilson" was OUR supporting actor in the pep rally. When Tom Hanks kicks him in the ocean and then loses him later in the movie, FEAR kicked in on him. So my point is "DON'T listen to man, only to God". The media is trying, and succeeding in some lives, to bring hopelessness, but perseverance and fervent prayer we can get through anything. I know this is deep, but it has been on mind a lot lately. We as Christians not only need to have hope but spread it to keep fear away from all others around us. "We can do all things through Christ who strengthens us." "For God did not give us a spirit of fear, but power, love and a sound mind."

Busy Weekend

Hey everyone, hope all fellow bloggers had a great weekend. I sure did even though extremely busy. Run down on wknd.

Family


OK I know your not suppose to brag, but I am going to about my great-nephew Manning pictured here with Eli. He is sooooooo cute and I love him so much. He is named for the Manning brothers of football fame and yes his daddy is a coach in Van Buren middle school. But all Manning has to do is flash those baby blues and I melt and will do just about whatever he wants to do, especially playing on the trampoline with Aunt Belinda. He loves his cousin Eli they always have good time together. OK enough bragging everyone have a good day, but get ready I have another great nephew on the way should be here in April, his name is Bryant.

LWCC Youth

Something I forgot to mention on my last blog, is a great big THANK YOU to the youth at our church. They did a great job on serving the food and drinks at our valentine's banquet.
I have to say the Hunter and Nathan did very good at keeping our tables filled with drinks and the clearing of dishes.
ALL the youth worked very hard. Again THANKS TO ALL THE YOUTH.

Valentine's Banquet



Ok I know several that read my blog went to the church's valentine mystery dinner banquet. I had a great time. It's so much fun to dress up and just have fun. What's great is that we can do it without all the worldly things that usually people have like wine, champagne or just any kind of drink. We can have fun just being ourselves, and that's what it's all about. We as Christians need to show the world that we do not need to compromise. And thanks to our pastors for a wonderful time, also to Marge and Arnie, and the wonderful story about the Eel Pout Festival.

My Beloved Husband



I just want to brag on my most wonderful and thoughtful husband that God Blessed me with. Above are some beautiful flowers that he not only hand picked out for me, but hand delivered them to me at my workplace for our anniversary. He is always surprising me. I love it and him. I know God Blessed me with this man, because I never knew what love was until God came into our marriage. I and Tony are best friends, we do everything together. Thank You Father God for such a beautiful person as Tony.
