- My daughter (not estranged) and her fiance are traveling to a bowling tournament. She called and said there's like a 20 pile up; cars and semis from what it sounds like. They had just passed the exit 2 mi. back where they're detouring everyone. It...
- I don't normally read this version, but I read these verses today in MSG and loved how it was written:"Don't fret or worry. Instead of worrying, pray. Let petitions and praises shape your worries into prayers, letting God know your concerns. Before...
- I'm still reading What If your Blessings Come Through Raindrops? The chapter I read today is "When Strength is Gone". There're some beautiful quotes in there:"Our valleys may be filled with foes and tears, but we can lift our eyes to the hills to...
- This is one of my ED's favorite songs. I found a book with the same title in the bookstore by Laura Story who I believe sings this song. Of course it starts with the words of the song. Since I can't hear all the words when music is playing I've...
- I sent my ED a Christmas card and from advice from a postal worker wrote on it besides Please Forward, Address Service Request. I don't know if that made a difference, but I got the card back today with a sticker saying time expired to forward, but...
- "Though the fig tree should not blossom, nor fruit be on the vines, the produce of the olive fail and the fields yield no food, the flock be cut off from the fold and there be no herd in the stalls, yet I will rejoice in the Lord, I will take joy in...

- I read this before coming to work. I know I won't have time later to get back on the computer, but it's a message for some of the Isrealites in exile. God will change their heart and bring them back to Him. That's my prayer today for my ED and all...
- I'd recieved a phone call last March of someone pretending to be my ED's bf's mom. I decided it's been long enough and if I called it maybe I could figure out who it really was, so I called yesterday. A kid answered and when I asked for (mom) or...
- This quote was on my calendar today: "Man struggles to find life outside himself, unaware that the life he's seeking is within himself." Kahlil GibranI think a lot of our EC are dealing with this
- June 4th was our ED's 21st b.day. We sent her a card with a check inside. We have to put our address on and please forward because we don't know where she is.Today we got a letter with the check and a note: Dear Mom and Dad, Thank you, but I really...
- I've been reading This Isn't the Life I Signed Up For by Donna Partow. Here's part of it:"Simon, Simon, Satan has asked to sift you as wheat. But I have prayed for you, Simon, that your faith may not fail. And when you have turned your back,...
- "There's no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus." Rom. 8:1The comment was: "To truly love someone else means to accept him or her as is - the good with the bad, the strong along with the weak, the honest intertwined with the dishonest....
- I've been reading this book and it has a section I thought we could relate to; not exactly the family, but what Dr. Cloud tells the family:"Burt was the 25 yr old son of a Christian family. From childhood his parents made most of his spiritual...
