Nahum 1:7 The LORD is good, a strong hold in the day of trouble;

and he knoweth them that trust in him.

Mother Taught Me

Matthew 19:19 Honour thy father and thy mother

Monday, August 22, 2016

Just a Little Note -

Just a Little Note

My 75-year-old mother is very sick, she's been sick for a very long time. She has lung disease from smoking, but no longer smokes. She also has c.o.p.d.and she coughs all the time. Recently, she dropped her dentures on the ground while she was in the Walmart parking lot. I'm not sure why she didn't have them in her mouth, but my stepfather, who is also been very sick, accidentally ran them over with their car. She told me the cost for new dentures would be $1,100.00 dollars, but they have no insurance. Please pray that they'll be able to get the dentures she needs as soon as possible.

Thank you for the prayers for our older daughter who broke her leg while we were on vacation.

She has been a real trooper. She broke both her tibia and her fibula, and she had to get 10 screws put into her leg. During the time she was healing, I consistently brought meals to her and her husband's home and helped with the house chores. My other daughter and my son-in-law's mother also helped with the food and chores. The only things that didn't survive were her garden flowers. I could not be there enough to keep them watered and they died. She is nearly recovered now, praise God. The cast has been removed and she no longer is wearing the boot. She's been able to walk, but still has a limp. She is going through therapy until she is fully healed.

My daughter had her annual garage sale, which was made up of about 15 families. She and my other daughter worked very hard with the organizing and pricing. This kept my wounded daughter busy during her recovery from her broken leg. By God's grace, they were able to have another successful year, even though the location of the sale was moved from my home to their home this year. I helped on the inside of the home, preparing lunch and helping keep the house presentable, which is very hard to do when having a very large garage sale. I also helped with the refolding of the clothes to keep them organized. I didn't put very much in the sale. I made about $100.00. I'm thankful for our three men who helped lift and move things. Both my daughters and myself were not to do excessive heavy lifting this year.

One good thing about having the garage sale every year is that the tithes go up at our church. Our people are faithful tithers thank the Lord We have been blessed and have been able to support three missionary families on a regular basis. Pray that God will continue to supply that need.

My younger daughter and her husband are pregnant with our first grandchild. The baby had the hiccups last night. It is the first movement that she has felt since the baby was conceived. I cried when I saw the baby's ultrasound, just feeling grateful for another little one in our lives. We are calling the baby "Baby Bean" at this time, which is humorous because the baby actually jumped when getting his first ultrasound. We are not sure if the baby is a girl or a boy, I hope we will know before the garage sales are over for this year.

A Mother's Heart

Little one so small, so sweet;
How precious each day with you.
Your hands, your feet, your laughter;
And each special thing you do.

Makes me smile with happiness;
My heart is greatly touched;
How blessed I am to know you.
And I love you very much.

Don't Wait

Don't Wait!

She lays gasping for each breath;
She grows weaker ev’ry day.
Soon the words like - I love you;
Will be words too late to say.

She struggles from day to day;
Just to do things here and there.
She thinks of you most often;
And her pillow fills with tears.

A mother still loves her child;
If she, a mother at all.
She may not be here tomorrow;
Then it will be too late to call.

Don't Wait!

Quilted In Love

Quilted In Love

God- see's the beginning:

God see's the final end.

Life is stitched - in His love;

And sings within the wind.

Like a- loving mother;

Crochets or quilts a gift.

God is quilting in His love;

With golden threads adrift.

When troubles and great trials;

Seem to crash- all around.

Not a sin-gle voice of cheer;

In this world - can be found.

We find ourselves asking;

Is our Lord in control?

Has He left me here alone?

Does He care for my soul?

In this world of trouble;

Confusing, though it be.

God's golden threads of hope;

Gives hope, when we can't see.

Stitching here , mending there;

With precision, designed.

He is busy stitching;

A quilt that's golden lined.

Like a quilt upon His knee;

He holds each child with care.

He knows all our weaknesses'

He knows when there's despair.

He knows all of our needs;

and our choices and plans.

He knows the pain that we feel;

Like the prints in His hands.

Each quilt is valuable;

A golden lined life displayed.

A quilt designed, unique;

With worth that can't be weighed.

Will you yield to His quilting?

Will you desire His will?

As He's quilting His purpose;

In humility kneel?

If a quilt lays down yielded;

God's golden threads will gleam.

And to the world around it;

Jesus will clearly be seen.

Neither yield ye your members as instruments of unrighteousness unto sin: but yield yourselves unto God, as those that are alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness unto God.

Hereby perceive we the love of God, because he laid down his life for us: and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren.

John 15:13

Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.

I'll Keep You In My Prayers - Poem Poster

I'll Keep You In My Prayers

Source: fotopastele.lt via Jenny on Pinterest

I'll Keep You In My Prayers

When you were a baby;

I held you all so close.

I kissed your little cheeks;

I kissed your little nose.

I taught you how to sing.

I held you on the swing.

I taught you how to pray.

I taught you many things.

When you were a toddler;

As cute as you could be.

I taught you the bible;

You sang Jesus loves me.

On your first day of school;

I hugged you, oh so tight.

A tear ran down my cheek;

I prayed you'd be alright.

When it was time to sleep;

I would lay beside you.

I'd talk about Jesus;

Until our time was through.

When you became a tween;

Sometimes I felt afraid.

I'd lay in bed at night;

I prayed and prayed and prayed.

"Lord please protect my child;

Help her make the right choice."

The Lord heard my prayers;

I would sing and rejoice.

Then there were your teen years;

You made some choices then;

That were not very wise;

But soon you turned from them.

I never ceased to pray;

That the Lord would shield you.

I prayed from day to day;

That He would strengthen you.

Now you are a woman;

You're living for the Lord.

You are heavens blessing;

I pray you'll touch the World.

With God's love and kindness;

With gentle hands that give.

But yet standing strong;

And willing to forgive.

Thank-you for the blessings;

Throughout these many years.

You are full of sunshine;

I'll keep you in my prayers.

What Kind Of Apples ~ New Additions February 28th - Restored August 25th, 2014

What Kind Of Apples

(Childrens Poem)

By: Susan Y Nikitenko

May 14th, 2011

If you were a tree;

of apples so bold;

What kind of apples;

would your tree limbs hold?

Would they be bitter;

Or would they be sweet?

Would your apples provide;

A nutritious treat?

Apples of goodness;

Filled with God's mercy?

Apples of pardon;

Grace for the thirsty?

In Jesus our tree;

Can bare joy divine.

Through trouble and trial;

Our Jesus would shine.

Apples of patience;

Longsuffering too.

What kind of apples;

Are falling from you?

Crab apples are green;

And bitter to eat.

Some apples are rotten;

and lay at ones feet.

A fruit bearing tree;

In Jesus I'm told.

Will bare sweet apples;

Sweet apples of gold.

Like honey they yield;

Providing the world.

With apples of goodness;

Produced by our Lord.

If you were a tree;

of apples so bold;

What kind of apples;

would your tree limbs hold?

Galatians 5:22-23

But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.

Sweet Dreams- - By: S. Y. Nikitenko

Sweet Dreams

By: Susan Y Nikitenko

2009 - Updated 2019

A little child reaches up;

For his mothers hold.

She puts him in her lap;

Her arms around him fold.

Comforted, “I love you, mommy.”

She says, “I love you too.”

“Now it’s time for beddie bye.”

“You know what you must do.”

He kneels beside his little bed.

“Mommy, you come down too.”

He folds His little hands;

He Prays until He’s through.

He climbs into His bed.

She tucks Him in real tight.

“Sweet Dreams, my little man.”

Then kisses him good night.

In peace now, from her love;

He drifts sweetly to sleep.

Mama humbly bows her knees;

And silently she weeps.

“Lord, I ask you bless my boy;

To grow, and be like you.”

“Give me, the grace to teach him,”

“How to live and love you too.”

“Spread angel’s wings about him.”

“Protect him from this world.”

“Keep him in your perfect plan;

Living by your Holy Sword.” (Bible)

Are you like a child in need?

Is Jesus Christ your Lord?

Do you need deliverance;

From the trappings of this world?

Is it hard for you to sleep?

Does your heart long for relief?

Father God will comfort you;

And bless with perfect peace.

Just as mother, swaddles child;

The Father (God) holds us tight.

He guides us through the shadows;

And protects us in the night.

He sends His angels near;

To catch our every tear.

And when we need a sense of love;

We sense His presence there.

“I love you, Lord.” You’ll say.

“I love you too.” You’ll hear.

Then in rest, you'll drift in sleep;

Your soul quiet, from all fear.

“Sweet dreams, my child, sweet dreams;”

“Rest now in my loving you.”

“I am your Father, you are my child;

"I will never- ever leave you;.”

Isaiah 26:3

Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace,

whose mind is stayed on thee:

because he trusteth in thee.

Lord, help me to trust you more each day.

Lord, help me to love you more I pray.

Lord, lead me, to walk in your holy way.

Lord, strengthen my faith, help me not stray.

Lord, hide me behind the cross today.
