Garden Help

We have been so busy that it's all HAND-ON-DECK!  

This is the 2nd driest year ever recorded in this area

and I can tell.

BUT the sprinkler system is going now so we won't be watering each plant by hand anymore.

Mulching is next on the list.

How can you tell we are a little behind the times?

I have no idea what will happen at the FTDM tomorrow at CPS.

I am confident that all our prayers are heard.

I trust that what is needed will happen.

I am so thankful for all who have prayed for this family.

Please don't stop praying for them.

*****

 Then will I sprinkle clean water upon you, and ye shall be clean:
 from all your filthiness, and from all your idols, 
will I cleanse you.
A new heart also will I give you, and a new spirit will I put within you: 
and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, 
and I will give you an heart of flesh.
And I will put my spirit within you, 
and cause you to walk in my statutes, 
and ye shall keep my judgments, 

and do them. . . . and ye shall be my people, 

and I will be your God.

Ezekiel 36:25- 28

 "Christ can look on the misery of the world 

without a shade of sorrow for having created man. 

In the human heart He sees more than sin, 

more than misery.

 In His infinite wisdom and love He sees man’s possibilities, 

the height to which he may attain. 

He knows that, 

even though human beings have abused their mercies 

and destroyed their God-given dignity, 

yet the Creator is to be glorified in their redemption."
- 7T 269.3

A Screeching Halt?

I thought something big was going to happen.

I was so sure.

But the days passed one after another . . .  and the horrible roller coaster ride appeared to be going off into infinity. No one could stop the madness.

I don't know if I have ever prayed so much. I know that ultimately God can and will over-rule. He sees. He knows. And He is holding His hand over those kids.

There's nothing like watching someone get sicker and sicker and sicker and being helpless to stop them from destroying themselves - And destroying themselves so fast!! I've been saying to Steve that at the rate things are going she won't live to see her children grow.

Today DSHS scheduled a meeting for later this week. No one knows what is going to happen. . .  As grateful as I am that someone is finally going to throw out a life-line and attempt to save this person, the timing is awful. I wish it had happened months ago.  I have obligations and plans and a plane ticket...

I know that everyone is going to need a lot of guidance from above. Pray for us.
