It's a journal. It's a devotional. It's a record of a Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) survivor. It's documentation of God's activities in real time. There are good days and bad, happy times and sad... I tell it like it is. This is an unscripted walk along the meandering paths of my mind. My life has never been dull... and I've never known boredom. Read on, you'll see...

I am a happily married mother and grandmother of a large family. I've also had several careers including writer, teacher, trucker, investment and finance advisor, web master and artist. I am an ordained minister (not to the pulpit) and consider my calling to Christ's service my most important role in life.

God id Good

What a wonderful Sunday it's been! I am always so blessed to be with my church family, and I can't wait until Richard has enough seniority at Disney to get Sundays off so we can enjoy that blessing together. There was an urgent prayer request because two girls and a baby had disappeared from the mission we serve in Honduras. I prayed much of the afternoon as I am sure others did as well.

I just got news that the lost ones have been found! God's specialty, saving the LOST! I am ever amazed at His mercy in the face of man's depravity and I know it cannot be much longer until the events of the end times begin to take place. If we had even a fraction of a glimpse of God's heart and love for us, and of His infinite power, we would never again say a casual prayer out of habit; never again take Him for granted; never again take our salvation lightly... or, for those unsaved, never hesitate an instant longer to accept the unbelievable gift of Grace for which was paid so great a price.

Athena called and Richard will join them tomorrow. It seems a whole wall of her utility room is termite ridden so they took it out and are rebuilding. I have a prior engagement (two, actually) so will not be joining them.

I have several projects I need to finish right away. One is to write guidelines for the altar prayer team and a prayer focus for the intercessory prayer team. I also need to do some work on the Orlando Brain Injury Support site. Then there is are the Bible Study notes to put online and the next chapter notes to write... I need the help of the Holy Spirit and indeed, He leads me on.
