Grandma was wrapping gifts
Lucy, four, was "helping".
One of those times when
help slows you down.

Me, I am sacked out on the sofa
Waiting for sanity to return
and relieve me of a bad cold.

Grandma went to the kitchen
Lucy stayed wrapping.
In a few, she comes over to my hole
where I am residing and says,
"Grandpa, I brought you a present."

I looked up and there she stands.
Wrapping paper taped around her arm.
She said, "Go ahead and open it Grandpa."
"Open it?  Your arm?"
being a little slow.
"Yes Grandpa open your present."

She stands there with this
expectant expression beaming.
A moment later the fog cleared
Grandpa open the wrapped arm
and with great "surprise" exclaimed!
"This is the best Christmas present ever."
"I love it!"
  I kissed her arm and Lucy's face
as a smile spread across her face.
"This is the best Christmas present
ever Lucy.  Thank you!"


And she was off to the next adventure.
Never know what she will come up with.
Every day is an adventure.

God is light,love,and care
Fills this world with joy and repair
Ask upon his name and you shall receive
The miracles he gives if you just believe
Many love to blame him for their misery and despair
But who are they serving the man of darkness beware
God is not evil and does no such act
If evil abides you need to backtrack
Life has many ups and downs
Some learn to smile and some just frown
There's two paths you can choose during you're life
One full of darkness and the other so bright
Some choose the light from the beginning
Others get tangled and lost in their grieving
We all have trials that we must face
Testimonies to share once we've unlocked the briefcase
              To live for Christ takes time and learning.
When you hold a newborn,do you not hold it delicately? Do you not feed him milk from a bottle until he grows and learns to eat more solid food? Do you not scold the child when he disobeys? Are you not proud of him when he does something good? Are you not worried once he is old enough to live on his own? Are you not there for him when he is in need or trouble? Is you're heart not broken when his is broken? Same as our Father in heaven. We start out into this world learning his word just like a newborn. You cannot feed a newborn a steak. Same as with Christ. We all come to Christ at different ages,but when we do we all start out as newborns. Through time we grow with his word. Not everything bad in you're life is because of God or because he likes to see you suffer. There is a dark force out there who's main purpose is to steal **** and destroy. God may allow Satan to test you to see how faithful you will remain to him,and at the end of that trial he rewards all of us. He also leaves us with such a powerful testimony that we can share to save lives. Love y'all hope this touches some of you

Look upon a shooting star,
Embrace it before it's too far
I've traveled this world for quite some time,
And thought of you with smiles not left behind
I remember our laughs and how you shined,
So graceful and pure,you're the one in my mind
Just seems like yesterday,
All the secrets you've shared,I've kept till this day
Fight the good fight I want to say,
I'll be by you're side,forever I'll stay
You're love runs deeper than the ocean,
And mine for you will always be open
Be frightened no more because I am here,
Like always before I'll carry you dear
Please don't cry,for tomorrow's a new day,
I'll hold you tight and demons I'll slay
Confide in me and you shall see,
That all of you're pain is not meant to be
Trust in me just like before,
And let my angels take care of you're war
Time goes quickly and never stops,
I remember all of our afternoon walks
So take you're time and hold you're head high,
Because I'll hold and comfort you till the day that you die

Goodnight my friends
Time for rest
The sleep man knows
What is best
I fight the urge
To stay up more
But eyelids drooping
Can't fight no more
So sleep well as I will do
Very honored to have all of you:)
Goodnight all God bless you
