Last night I had a very odd dream

Now most of the time I have dreams that are just that they are dreams but sometimes I have dreams that I feel means something. Like one time I dreamed of a train wreck and in my sleep I was talking and I said "There will be a train accident. The train will leave the tracks." My husband told me when I woke up what I said in my sleep. About 3 hours later there was a train accident in our little town and the first few cars of the train left the tracks and went down a slight embankment.

This morning, when I woke up I remembered the dream, and felt strongly that it means something -that God is trying to tell me something.


I dreamed that I was at a church and there were not a lot of people there but I knew there was a man behind me and all during the service I kept turning around to look at this man. He was about 6 ft. tall and clean shaven and had on a dark suit with a white shirt but no tie. He had dark hair that was about 2 inches long neatly parted on the left side. He probably weighed about 190 pounds.

When the service was over I went to him to introduce myself and to apoligize for watching him so much, but before I could say anything

he said "you got the wrong person"
I said "I don't think so, God has already told me you are the one"
He said "I am not a Christian"
I said "yes you are, you are just trying to cover it up and you need to uncover it, and get busy, cause I need you, now."

I don't have any idea what that means but if I ever see that man I will recognize him. I can still see him in my mind.

baby is sick

I could not sleep last night. Just one of those things that happen to me sometimes. Maybe once a month or so I just can not fall asleep. I won't be sleepy at all and if I go to bed I just lie there. Most of the time it is no big deal as I do not work outside of the home and if I get really sleepy the next day I can put baby down for a nap and nap with him. But this morning is Sunday and I love going to church.

Another but -baby is sick. runny nose and congestion and fevered. I have already gave him some medicene, and all he wants to do is sit and watch veggietales, he dont even want me to hold him.

I hope he is not getting that nasty cold/flu thing that is going around. I am goiing to a church tonight for a singing (not my home church) The singing Couriers is going to be performing and they are always a blessing. I will go where ever they are singing at even if I have to stay out of my church. I wonder if that makes me a religious group groupie?

Have a good day everyone.

nice day, personal revelation, praise for God

Good morning

It is 7:10 am and I have finished my devotional and done 30 min. exercise, and the weather is 50 degrees and a high today of 71. Almost perfect weather.Only problem is that there is a high chance of rain.

I need to get out today (I hate getting out when it is raining) and buy some fruit for a homemade fruit basket for my pasor. He is in the hospital and it is my church job to get flowers and such for funerals and sick members. Men do not like flowers so I am going to make a basket with fruit and nuts and candy and maybe a few pretty artificial flowers stuck here and there, wrap it with tinted saran wrap put a bow on it and voila a fruit basket.

We will be going to a singing tonight at a local church. We have been to the church before but never heard the singers. I'm sure that they will be enjoyable.

I opened a new blog so that I could write my food and calories, exercise, pedometer steps, and water so that I could show the dr. that I am eating low calorie and exercising daily and phooey the two days that I have been supposed to be writing it down I have gone over my calories for the day.


hmmmmmmm

Could it be that I am a pig after all. NO NO NO say it isn't so.

I just have to try harder not to eat after 5 in the evening. That really is my worse time.

Today I work at it just a bit harder
I must do this for myself
and because I can't go out and buy new clothes.


Dear Lord
Fill me with your spirit
fill all the empty places inside with the goodness of You, untill I am overflowing with love for all, including myself. Nourish me Lord, with living waters and the Bread of Life. Thank You for contentment and joy that you give me daily. Thank you for the health that I have been blessed with. Thank You for a strong body and a strong mind, and thank you for being my God, my rock and my high tower. Amen

Do you belirve in miracles?

Yesterday morning as dh was getting dressed I happened to see his back. He had a mole about the size of a pencil eraser and it was not an even circle. It was black and looked like it had been charred. The edges of it was light brown and above it was another that was about the size on a piece of linguinni and black and about a half inch long.

I looked it up on the computer and saw one that looked just like what dh had and it was a cancer. I called the dr and got an appointment for this morning.
I called all of my praying friends and we began lifting dh up to the Lord and calling on Him for a healing.

Last night I looked at it and it was light brown and then this morning it was almost flesh colored and the linquinni sized one had almost disappeared.
We went to the dr. and he said it was nothing to worry about unless it began itching or bleeding. AND THEN HE SAID NO CHARGE.

I believe in miracles.

I just wanted to let everyone know that God still performs miracles.

My weekend

Have you ever heard of toxic relationships? I think that is what I have with my mom. I can remember so many things from my childhood and right on up to this month. Mom has always treated me with contempt. I asked my sister if mom yells at her and she said no. But Sunday mom just about brought tears to my eyes the way she talked to me. It has always been this way. That tone of voice that says "if you were my dog I would shoot you"

She does not talk to anyone else that way. Just me

Sunday we had a group come to our church and they were such a blessing such a wonderful service. Mom was not there and I call ed to be sure she was all right. She was sick and I commiserated with her about how bad it is to have sinus problems and then started telling her about how wonderful the morning service was. She immediately told me in that tone of vice that we spend too much time now on singing and preaching the word was more important than singing. I reminded her that the bible does say to sing to the Lord and she started again on the singing and on the pastor and how she is bored with how juvenile he preaches and she already knows everything he talks about.

I called her full of love and joy and got off of the phone feeling like the world was a dark and gloomy place.

We had a healing service Sunday night and I went up for prayer for a healing in my family. The preacher brought a message for me about being given a shield. The Lord will be my shield and protector. So I will trust in God for my joy. I know there is a place in the bible about "though my father and mother turn against me"

And he has given to me the verse "I know the way I have for you , a way of good and not for evil." He gave this to me 7 times in one week by different people and different times and different circumstances. I praise my God.

He's my King

(218.6) This and that-my thoughts and my days

Good morning

I can not believe this weather!!It is 50 degrees here and has rained all night. AND you won't belief this, they are calling for thunderstorms!!!!

The rain came in and there are a few things that trigger sinus problmes for me and changes in weather is one of them. So I sit here with my head feeling like it has been used as a punching bag.My eyes are swollen and bluish. I am not in a lot of pain, just a bit achy and uncomfortable.


Yesterday our local hospital was offering -free of charge- a diagnostic physical and a blood workup. It is mostly for those that do not have anytype of insurance, but anyone can come. I do not have any insurance, Dh and I went last year and they found that I had a thyroid that was bad and dh had a a psa test that came back with problems. I have to take snthyroid and his problem was not serious at all, and was easily taken care of.

Yesterday the program was expanded and it took two hours to have all of the exams done.
We had a test for our equilibrium (mine was good) and one for our strength-mine came back as the muscle strength of a 25 yr. old woman. (Weight trining really does pay off.

We had one station for lung capacity, mine was a little iffy because I had smoked for 40 yrs, and I do snore-or at least that is what dh says. Personally I don't think so I have never heard me snore. lolAnyway I told her that my dr. does know about my history and it has been 4 yr. since I quit.

Then blood pressure and that was normal, then waist measurement- I think that is because the bigger your waist the higher potential for heart problems? I do have a bigger waist but then I am big all over.

Then bone mass test. I have the bones of a young adult. All that walking and arobics pays off.

Then they drew blood, I have rolling veins and she had to try 3 times to draw the blood. She had to use a baby-butterfly needle.

Those results will be back in a few weeks.

And then I woke up this morning-the first of the month and my weigh in day- I had lost 4 pounds.

All I can say about it all is God is good. I did not take care of my body for so long - - - I drank really bad for years, I am an alcoholic. I smoked for 40 yrs. I did not do any more than I had to-I never exercised --- and I ate what ever I wanted, fried chicken and homemade biscuits and chocolate cake, etc.

But God is so good and my body is healthy even though I mistreated it. This body is God's vessel and I want to make it worthy for God to indwell me.

I do need to lose a good deal of weight but if I don't I can at least be healthy.

Have a blessed day everyone.
