GodStop


Ok It seems like I'm having a hard time doing this on Friday. I guess it is the devil. But I'm giving God the glory he deserves even if it's Sat.

My GodStop this week comes throught the eyes of my 14 year old. Last Sun night we were at church and the preacher was preaching from 1 Thessalonians 4:16-18 For the LORD himself will come down from heaven, with a loud command, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet call of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first. After that, we who are still alive and are left will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the LORD in the air. And so we will be with the Lord forever. The preacher said that it would seem as we just disappeared to those nonbelievers left here on Earth. My son was so amazed. He said does the bible really say we will just disappear and go in the clouds. He was so excited. God is so awesome! My son has been in church his whole life, it's amazing to see how he is maturing into a Godly young man. Praise God!

I do have a prayer request, that I wish anyone who reads this will commit to pray with me about this. I have a very close friend and co-worker who just found out yesterday she has cancer. They're not sure what kind or where. We've committed to pray for a miracle. I know God performs them everyday. We would like to see one done in this life.

GodStop

My GodStop actually came yesterday on Easter. All week long I'd been praying for my husband to go to church with me and the boys. Saturday night he announced he was going. PRAISE GOD!

As you can see from the picture at the side. I also was allowed to take my cousins little boy, he' 3.

Another GodStop, last Sun. night at church a young adult man got saved. It was very emotional. One of the older gentleman was so filled with the Holy Spirit he shouted. My 2 sons have never been in a church service where someone shouted from sheer excitement from the Holy Spirit. I'm happy that they were there to see and share in this event.

God Stop


I apologize for being a little late to God Stop Friday. The last 2 days my TV crew & I have been taping the JCHS Senior Play. I must say it's wonderful.
My GodStop this week is that God is opening doors for my advancement in the education field into administration. When I added this degree @4 years ago, I thought I was just doing in for the pay increase, I guess God had other plans. I didn't think I would be interested, but when they called me for an interview I was overwhelmed with excitement. I don't know how it will turn out, but I lay it all in God's hands. If I'm suppose to get the position, I will. If not, then he's just preparing me for what is to come.
My second GodStop is really for my nephew, I've been praying for him to receive approval from his medical insurance to receive his growth hormone. He's apparently not growing like he should. He is 13 and a foot shorter than my 12 year old. This has really bothered him for sometime. Praise God the drug company called and he's been accepted for a grant. So, he'll receive his medicine whether the insurance pays or not.
God is awesome. I look forward to seeing what he's gonna do each week for me to brag about him.

SNOW



I was so excited to wake up to some snow. Even though it is Sat. morning. I know I'm as bad as my students, I love to get out of school because of snow! But I'm glad to see that Yes, it does still snow here in East Tennessee.


I've heard all my life if you don't like the weather here, just wait around a little while it will change.



This picture I took last Sun. March 2nd. It was beautiful and 70 degrees. My youngest son went fishing off the dock.


Today March 8th my oldest son took this picture as the snow fell. It was beautiful. My youngest tried to snow board when the ground got a little more covered with snow.

God is so Wonderful to delight us all with different kinds of weather.

I have 2 GodStops this week.

#1 Praise God- my sons have not wanted to go to SS since we left our previous church. They don't know anybody they said. We'll I made a deal they could sit in my mom's office at church while I attended SS. They agreed. So last Sunday, I left them and went to class and when I met them for church, my oldest said mom I went to SS, but Brody didn't go. Still praying for him though.

#2 We had a great lunch yesterday. However, my 2 aunts were sick and could not attend. My mom, my sister and me had a great time. First time in the past 16 years.

A Special Day


Today would have been my granny's birthday. A couple of months ago. I had a thought, why shouldn't we celbrate Granny's Birthday. So, I called my mom. my sister, and my 2 aunts and asked them could we meet for lunch on this day. Which means we had to rearrange our schedules (Lay out of work) to meet with one another. We've never had such a day like this. I can't wait. My sister is on her way to pick me up. I have a surprise for them. I have a picture that we took 6 years ago of granny, the grandkids & the great grandkids. I had them all a copy made and will give it to them today. I wanted to share this picture with you guys. So, look out Olive Garden, here we come.
I plan to take pictures of us today. This is so cute, because my sons are now 12 & 14. Here they are 6 & 8. Such a precious time.
