Day of mourning...

Today is a day of mourning in Israel, so I pray with them.

I am also still in mourning for the troops lost this past weekend, as they are brought home to rest, and I pray for their loved ones.

As dear friends struggle with worries about work, injuries, illness, and other concerns, I pray they find work, healing, strength, and courage.

God is a God of miracles. There are those who wonder where God is in all this turmoil. I look about me and ask, "Where isn't He? As He sends peace to a troubled soul, comfort to the sorrowful, courage to the fighter, strength to those who must endure, and love in every shape and from, filling a heart in any way we will allow Him." He created individuals, and it is as individuals we are blessed. Even when I'm in a group setting, the effect is on me; others may share in it, but it is still individual. Jesus touched one life at a time. God is God, the same, always and forever. And what a precious blessing to be allowed to share in His plan to help others. I've been blessed by a myriad of angels on earth, angels to me anyway, for they have touched my heart for good.

Don't let those who think they're smarter than you fool you or scare you. Those "archaic" laws that banned abortion did NO...
