Light is a gift. Sight is a gift. This moment is a gift.
Your 60-Second Eye Spa 👀💎

Take 3 slow breaths.
Smile and whisper: “Thank You, Lord, for LIGHT.”

As we stand on the beautiful threshold between a year completed and a new one dawning, our hearts are overflowing with gratitude for the incredible journey we have shared. Every lesson learned, every conversation cherished, and every breakthrough celebrated has been a precious stepping stone, guiding us to this sacred moment of reflection and joyful anticipation. 🙏
In these moments of transition, the Bible powerfully reminds us of the divine gift of vision. It is the spiritual compass that guides our souls, turns our faith into tangible action, and illuminates the path ahead.
We are a people of vision! We hold fast to the wisdom of Proverbs 29:18, which declares, “Where there is no vision, the people perish…” This verse isn’t a warning for us, but a confirmation of who we are—a community alive with purpose and hope.
We are encouraged to be active participants in this process. The promise in Habakkuk 2:2-3 is our invitation: “Write the vision and make it plain… For the vision is yet for an appointed time; but at the end it will speak, and it will not lie. Though it tarries, wait for it; because it will surely come…”
And woven through it all is the comforting assurance of Jeremiah 29:11—that the plans for us are not of harm, but of welfare, to give us a future and a hope.
As we celebrate the closing of this chapter, let’s turn our hearts forward with intentional, vibrant joy. It’s time to dream with God and clarify the beautiful calling He has placed on your life.
✨ Your Joy~nal Prompt for the New Year ✨
What is your God-given vision for 2026?
This isn’t about setting rigid goals or resolutions. This is about painting the vivid, faith-filled picture of the life you feel called to live. Allow yourself to dream in full color!
•What does this vision look like? See the details in your mind’s eye.
•How does it feel in your heart and soul? Step into the feeling of it already being true.
•What beautiful impact will it have on you and those around you?
Take some quiet time to write it down. Make it plain. Speak it out loud. Infuse it with joy, gratitude, and bold expectation. ✍️
Let’s step into 2026 not as just another turn of the calendar, but as a divine dance into the magnificent future God is preparing for each of us.
We would be honored to celebrate with you! Share your vision or one word for the coming year in the comments below. Let’s cheer each other on and cover one another in prayer! 🙌
Wishing you a peaceful and blessed close to this year, and a spectacular, vision-filled beginning to the next.
With Gratitude and Excitement, Lady Grace ( my new pen name for the year )
What would yours be ? ( pen name and /or word for the year or VISION ) Do share will you ?
Breathing & praying are LIFE to me and my most important & #1 habit would be PRAYER while being aware of my breath at the same time ! ( Okay so that might technically be two … but I will put them together as one & recommend you do as WELL. )
Without breath we are not alive physically ~ but HOW ALIVE we feel depends on our breath and there is so much we need to learn & unlearn .
The book Breath by James Nestor & the teachings of Patrick McKeown have been SO beneficial to me that I recommend them to all .
For example : DID YOU KNOW that the Native American Grandmas & Moms would check the infants to make sure their mouths were closed when sleeping & close them if they were not?
THERE ARE MANY LOST REMEDIES that are coming back as science catches up with the Bible ( See Gen 2:7)
FOR NOW and /or & until you check them out~~` just laugh MORE and or go for a daily walk TO BREATH MORE & listen to nature talk which can be a way of how Creator speaks to us I have found ~ we all sleep better when we walk & talk daily with our Creator In Creation !
The hospital is full of shallow breathers ~ may we not become one of them I pray.
(often disease is caused because of stress and how one deals or does not deal with stress )
To be spiritually alive is to be connected thru prayer with our Creator about all of life including our stresses.
Our Father in Heaven who gives us breath & life both physical & spiritual will give us answers if we listen because He cares! 1 Peter 5:7 Let GOD have all your worries and cares, for he is always thinking about you and watching everything that concerns you.
My prayer is that we all will BREATH WELL & PRAY continually TO BE WHOLE ~ so that our body, soul & spirit can soar above all the earthly pressures & trials and we can bring heaven to earth ~ with JOY , PEACE & right~living ONE LAUGH & PRAYER AT A TIME ~ more easily able to share kindness & love to all .
MAY WE FULLY ENJOY THIS PRECIOUS GIFT OF LIFE WE ARE GIVEN DAILY !
May our hearts be FULL OF WONDER THIS WEEK LIKE A CHILD ~ laughing & learning & perhaps even skipping again and /or humming or singing ( some of the greatest health & stress relievers and NO COST even ~ money back guaranteed ! )
When is the last time you skipped or hummed ? Get a friend or a neighbor to join you & you’ll both be giggling & feeling younger together ~ PERHAPS EVEN START A CLUB ? !
LET’S BE FULLY ALIVE ~~ like a child yet not childish ~ knowing we are FULLY KNOWN & FULLY LOVED
FOR WE ARE MADE BY LOVE TO GIVE & RECEIVE LOVE ~
AS A MOTHER & GRANMA of many that is my truth & I am sticking with it ~ and IT WORKS FOR ME even in the most stressful situations including deathbeds & traumatic events. BREATHING & PRAYING ARE VITAL ! I have buried two sons & a marriage after 33 years among other tragedies.
PRAYER works for me with no bad side effects ~ What works for you ?
WHAT IS YOUR ONE HABIT that makes everything else work better for your day & life ?
FOR ME IT IS BEING AWARE OF MY BREATH AS I PRAY WITH A GRATEFUL HEART TO MY GOD & OUR FATHER IN HEAVEN NO MATTER WHAT I have learned to Trust & just keep breathing while talking to & listening for HEAVEN’S voice & reading the Bible as if it was a love letter daily just for me & you ~which it is !
I AM PRAYING FOR YOU NOW TO TAKE A LONG SLOW STEADY BREATH LIFTING UP YOUR HANDS TO RELEASE ALL THE TENSION WITH A THANK YOU LOOKING UP IN YOUR MINDS EYE & A LISTENING HEART TO GOD FOR THAT BREATH ~ MAY YOU HEAR THE VOICE OF HEAVEN & RECEIVE THE LOVE THAT IS BEING WHISPERED TO YOU EVEN NOW AS I WRITE THIS ….
AHHH…. and HUG YOURSELF 3 times LONG & STRONG ~ ending with a little tickle & a neck rub? !!
May you have a blessed day & night more than usual seeing all the WONDER ~ with
SWEET HEALING DREAMS TO YOU & me too
& ALL ~~
AND MAY WE ALL WAKE RESTED & REFRESHED & EXCITED TO LIVE & SHARE JOY WITH SOMEONE ALONG WITH HEAVENLY PEACE ….
then the LORD God formed [that is, created the body of] man from the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and the man became a living being [an individual complete in body and spirit]
THE NOSE IS FOR BREATHING ~ PRAYER IS FOR LIFE !

As mothers, we know there are times we would rather not be present when our children suffer and yet FOR LOVE WE MUST BE THERE and want to be if at all possible !
I remember pondering this decades ago after becoming a mom & wondering how Mary could endure watching her son suffer on the Cross for 9 hours ! Now, decades later & having buried 2 sons & many tragic events even more layers have been added to my meditation of the Cross of Jesus & our own “crosses” & Mary’s example.
There was Mary at the foot of Jesus’ Cross, hearing all the jeers, even from those Jesus had healed, surely she had a sword pierce her heart even before they pierced his in the depth of her grief.
And where were all the other followers & his disciples? Only the Beloved John remained there faithfully offering comfort like a son. They were both blessed by being there and Jesus words surely became true to them that day, ” Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted.”
Mary had angel’s visits & experienced the heights & joys of motherhood & life to the full yet also had to become a fugitive in a foreign country when the Ruler wiped out all the boys under two , similar to when Moses was an infant. Now she was experiencing the agony decades later at a level no one else ever would as she watched her innocent son suffer for 9 long excruciating hours~ yet with such dignity .
How could she be there ? And yet, how could she not be there? And where were Jesus siblings , Mary’s other children? John became her true son that day & Mary became his mother and Jesus even declared it.
John 19:26–27 “When Jesus saw his mother there, and the disciple whom he loved standing nearby, he said to her, ‘Woman, here is your son,’ and to the disciple, ‘Here is your mother.’ From that time on, this disciple took her into his home.” The clear understanding of the passage is that Jesus commanded John to care for Mary after His death.
Oh the agony & ecstasy of loving Christ above all and experiencing a taste of the suffering along with the glory of Jesus , the Christ, The SON OF GOD so dearly & nearly.
Will you come to the cross with Mary & imagine once again what love really is?
How can we really go there & imagine it fully without being broken inside and yet how can we not when we want to draw close to understand THE ONE WHO LOVES US BEST & MOST?
Let us linger there long enough for fresh tears of gratitude to pour down & soften holy ground for such a perfect life & for the perfect sacrifice…. Jesus the healer & friend of sinners.
Let’s look up & imagine His eyes looking down in love amidst all the pain & blood & sweat … bidding us to Remember HIS WORDS & HIS LIFE & HIS TENDER LOVING WAY in a brand new way ….
Let THE TRUTH SET US FREE….. for it might feel like some seasons of our life are like a “Friday that seems to last forever” but surely SONDAY IS A COMIN’ …. A DAY OF HOPE WHEN CAPTIVES ARE SET FREE & THE GRAVE HOLDS NO ONE forever BUT REPRESENTS VICTORY ……..
yes …visit the the cross & tomb of Jesus life & yours also but only to learn & REMEMBER TO RISE AGAIN TO LIVE & LOVE ….
then love someone for Jesus today … a mother, a son, perhaps a neighbor with no one….
Will YOU be that one? ….. a REFLECTION OF THE BELOVED SON?
HALLELUYAH …. IT IS A GOOD DAY for those who EMBRACE & CHOOSE TO LIVE IN JESUS’ LOVE ~ weep with those who weep & let’s turn the mourning into dansing as SPIRIT LEADS..might not take as long as we think…WITH RESURRECTION POWER ~~~ ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE !
MY JOY FILLED & GRATEFUL GREETINGS of BLES~SINGS & PRAYERS WITH & FOR YOU TODAY THIS 8TH OF JUNE & ALWAYS :
CELEBRATING THE MANY HERITAGES INCLUDING THE WEE BIT OF DAN~SING CELTIC HERITAGE IN MY BLOOD LINE~~ I PRAY YOU WILL BE SINGING & OR DAN~SING ALONG WITH ME BY THE END AT LEAST IN ALL YOUR CELLS ! JOYFUL CHILDREN ARE CONTAGIOUS ~~~ COME JOIN ME ON A VIRTUAL TRIP & JOIN IN ~~~
BE WELL ! CELEBRATE LIFE & SOMEONE YOU LOVE TODAY ~~ REACH OUT & TOUCH ~~ SOMEONE IS WAITING JUST FOR YOU ~ LET GOD GUIDE YOU WITH HIS VISION & IN HIS PRO~VISION ~~
Are you away from those you hold most dear ? Are there misunderstandings or even death or divorce that keep you apart from loved ones in time, space or distance? Or is this a hard season for you for any reason at all ? There is someone who cares. Someone born AWAY IN A MANGER but not far away today!
Writing my emotions thru letters, prayers, poems & songs has comforted me since I was a child and I am often surprised at how much comfort my words bring to others~ similar to how a song can bring comfort to a child when a mother sings or just humms. Let’s write & sing & humm with & to ourselves and others to bring more comfort to the world starting with just a smile & a KIND WORD ~right in the mirror !
🎶 AWAY IN A MANGER ~ no crib for a bed ~ the little LORD JESUS laid down HIS sweet head ~~~~~The stars in the sky looked down where He lay ~ the little LORD JESUS asleep on the hay…🎶
Things certainly were not perfect ….they were less than ideal for THAT ROYAL birth ~ far & AWAY from home and no room in any inn but THERE WAS PEACE in that humble ground because the HOLY SPIRIT WAS PRESENT.
Amazingly PRESENTS started arriving . Worshipers celebrating the birth of the MOST HIGH came from all over because they knew the truth & wanted to SEE IT & get CLOSER . Angels started the chorus and the shepherds ( drummer boys ? 🥁) & even wise men later brought their most valuable gift each from the heart and with so much JOY . To some of us the BEST GIFT WOULD be:
✨TIME or a
✨TOUCH ( like a good hug !)
✨WORDS of affirmation like in a letter or a song ….
✨Acts of SERVICE
✨GIFTS!
HOW DO YOU GIVE & RECEIVE LOVE ? When we know ourselves & seek to understand others we can better give & receive love. There is always so much to learn because we do change & grow and need to ASK …ourselves & others.
So TODAY as I miss many I love ~ far far away in some cases. There is no distance in my heart…..Perhaps it is YOU I am thinking of so dearly right now ! I DO KNOW GOD IS THINKING OF YOU and believe that is why you are reading this. We are messengers . I hope to be a messenger and a GIFT of love to you & all I meet & know ! So I pray & write & sing & will ask you to wrap your arms around yourself & RECEIVE THIS HUG I AM SENDING & then HUMM along with me your favorite tune of the season or one of mine !
I write for ALL those I love & miss and all who read this sometimes purely by the hand of providence. I ALSO PRAY this gives encouragement and hope just where you need it most. May this be an answer to both of us. It is is my gift to you today from my heart.
I CARE & that is why I SHARE! I write this today for love and out of my broken heart that Heaven keeps healing and holding together by amazing grace cords of love.
I forgive those who have misunderstood and hurt me because that is the habit my dear daddy modeled and taught me from a child. May we learn to forgive like Jesus did even on our crosses of sufferings and even for our enemies as was JESUS WAY. I know no other way. It is the way of peace and healing and have seen many suffer because they would not forgive or reach out & try to love again. Forgiveness is a gift I give myself as much as for the other person who may or may not know how much their words or actions ( or lack of words or actions or contact ) have grieved me. I ask their forgiveness as well for anything I might have done to cause harm. I never want to hurt anyone I pray we will all get the gift of forgiveness that is one of the BEST GIFTS OF ALL!
My dear daddy was very wise and like a grand~father & mentor to me. He was nearly 50 when I was born. I was his only daughter and he affectionately & humorously introduced me as ” My favorite & Hebrew Daughter along with His Hebrew Son” because he choose our names from the Bible. The Hebrew meaning of my name is compassionate, friend …. Names are important and can teach us much about ourselves & our destiny~ I recommend looking your name’s meaning up and/or pray about the meaning of your name to discover more about yourself. Our name is a key to our destiny and can especially help us when we are AWAY from who we love and things that are comfortable & familiar or need to start a new chapter of our lives.
How wonderful to be SO beloved by both my far from perfect parents but sadly there was a lot of disease and financial stress in my home after a horrible car accident when I was very little. Our car had plunged over the freeway’s edge at 50 mph and it rolled several times before it stopped and my mom was thrown many yards away . When she came to she thought we were all dead just before she passed out again after trying to get up. It seems we all passed out unconscious until a miraculous intervention saved us. My mom & I would most likely have bled to death if someone had not pulled over to help since this was way before cell phones . God made A WAY ! ( ask me about the REST OF THE STORY sometime…I do edit a lot out of stories to save YOU time !) Believe it or not !
There were dangerous medications causing nightmares along with concussion symptoms & other health challenges….some lasting for decades that are all part of what makes me unique. BUT GOD CAN MAKE A WAY & send healing even TODAY for us all ! OFTEN WITH PRAYER !
So much good did come from the tragedy but it takes EYES of GRACE to see and sometimes that includes time & experience. I am so grateful for how it shaped who I am and the many choices because of that abrupt turning point in my life. Painful at the time but I learned & grew so much in ways that were important. God was making A WAY for me even then.
Instead of being shy and afraid I had to learn to be brave. I wanted to be there for others who were in pain because of the hospital trauma where I felt lied to and/or abandoned by everyone including the nurses as I the painful needle pulled me back together and I counted each stitch. I just wanted to know how many and when the nurse across the room said just a couple more …I had believed her but nightmare did not end for a long time. I realized at a young age there is no one who understands or cares and can be with us all the time like Jesus can. Jesus said I AM THE WAY John 14:6
You see, just months before the car accident I had asked Jesus to become my best friend by inviting him into my heart through a simple prayer on my daddy’s lap after church one night when the sermon scared me about the reality of a hell. I wanted to go to heaven not hell like the Preacher had talked about.
How GLAD I AM THAT I GOT THE HELL SCARED OUT OF ME at 4 !!! HALLELUJAH !!
I HOPE TO SCARE IT OUT OF YOU TOO!!! SO you can sing HA HA HALLELUJAH with me too and chase away the fear & anger & pain of this world ! There is no other comfort like the WORDS of Jesus to my heart & soul. Do you know & trust Jesus ? Do you want to know God’s LOVE ? Just say a simple prayer like a child and God will send answers when you ASK ! GOD WILL MAKE A WAY for YOU!
Even at that small age after the car accident I wanted to SPEAK UP for those who had no voice or were too weak or just felt alone.
Well~ we can ONLY choose our response & take our emotions and recreate something good out of what seems like a mistake or a tragedy. May we choose to keep learning & growing and share humor & love wherever we are , like my dear daddy did for 80 wonderful years. I have missed my parents and first son since they all died in the 1990’s. I REMEMBER them each fondly and because I write & talk about them along with others who have died like another son last year ~ it seems to help them seem near and chase away the tears that still flow and pain that grief will bring like unexpected waves at times. Feeling the pain but not getting pulled under & stuck in it is healing. We must feel our emotions and then do something constructive with them ~ like move & create & reach out to help others.
This helps bring healing and even heaven to earth ~ one action at a time. I get thanked daily for some of the simplest acts of kindness that any one can do. A cup of kindness I call it ….It could be a cup or bottle of water or an apple for a homeless person ~ EVERYONE needs a smile & a kind greeting especially in times like these. REACH OUT ~ SMILE & GREET ALL YOU MEET . You will find that the nobleness & love you give away WILL return to you some day when you most need it also ! Not where you think ~ God shows up in mysterious ways and the Bible tells a lot of those mysterious stories to show us HIS WAY!
The most famous stories of all time are full of separation & difficulties and often start in humble & what seems to be unlikely beginning places.
One phrase and most of the world knows the same story we are talking about from the MOST FAMOUS STORY OF ALL TIME ” AWAY IN A MANGER” or “Oh Little Town of Bethlehem” or so many many more about that Oh HOLY NIGHT when there was a SPECIAL STAR shining SO bright in the darkest of times !
In pondering this during my prayer time first thing this morning a poem starting coming to me. For decades I have written my prayers & poems in journals before or after my habit of daily Bible reading.
Here are 2 of my new verses (part of a longer poem ) to AWAY in a Manger that I wrote this morning:
🎶The Story of JESUS a child can RECEIVE ~ but grown~ups forget or are often deceived
🎶We must be like children to SEE the PURE THINGS
🎶Like Jesus the sacrifice LAMB & TRUE (LION) KING!
🎶NOW what can we do to show JESUS we care ? ~
🎶Let’s give Him our HEART & show love everywhere~
🎶For that is the message from that HOLY NIGHT ~
🎶TO SHINE FORTH THE KINGDOM OF PUREST D*LIGHT ~~~ grace’t*ruth
May this & every season remind us of the reason we are still here & why the
King of glory arrived AWAY IN A MANGER & WANTS TO BRING COMFORT & JOY TO EVERY PLACE !
GOOD CHEER TO YOU & YOURS AS YOU CELEBRATE YOUR DAYS & HOLY NIGHT(s)
MAY THEY ALL BE WITH & IN D*LIGHT
Lovingly
with grace & truth
your friend ~ even to the end …..which is really just a new beginning
PS AND ….If you are grieving the loss of someone or REMEMBERING my dear Son Joshua as I am perhaps this touching song will help you cry out a few more healthy & healing tears like it did for me when I heard it ! May GOD’S LOVE RAISE YOU UP over the ashes of life to SEE THE MANGERS & THE CROSSES of life , that can seem like a bloody mess actually turn into the places that lift us up to SEE LIFE ETERNAL FULL OF HOPE & JOY & ABUNDANCE EVEN :
Blessed are those who MOURN (express their grief) BE COMFORTED BY JESUS~ Matthew 5:4
For more on Jesus Birthplace & prophecies in the Hebrew Scriptures check out this Link especially if you are are seeker of truth or Jewish or just CURIOUS ~~like a child.
I AM weeping with & for the families of the dead & dying & suffering around the world tonight …especially for those who have no HOPE IN ETERNAL LIFE and for the loss of children.
Our hearts should weep & bleed with tears especially when innocent lives of children die before & after birth. The families & loved ones will miss them always. They need support & heaven’s help & LOTS OF TLC for a long time. The first year is VERY RAW !
….having buried 3 of my own children, one just last year & 2 others decades ago along with many other close loved ones including parents & others who felt like family … I WEEP WITH THOSE WHO WEEP …
yet I also have faith that there is RESURRECTION HOPE FOR THOSE WHO WILL TRUST … ..BLESSED ARE THOSE WHO MOURN FOR THEY SHALL BE COMFORTED . Matthew 5
LET’S KEEP PRAYING FOR BLEEDING HEARTS TODAY & THIS WEEK & whenever the Spirit reminds us to …
IS YOURS ONE OF THEM LIKE MINE WHO OFTEN OR EVEN NOW WEEPS ALONE? YET I AM NOT ALONE , I HAVE THE COMFORT OF MY DEAREST HEAVENLY FATHER …MORE INTIMATE TO ME THAN ANYONE HERE ON EARTH …ESPECIALLY NOW …. with angels seen & unseen daily !
MAY YOU FIND THE HEALING & COMFORT THAT ONLY HEAVEN CAN BRING THROUGH PRAYER AND TAKING TIME TO MOURN ( Matthew 5:4 ) A daily walk …a daily habit of grace.
DO you know….I MEAN REALLY KNOW GOD’S GRACE & PEACE or is Jesus just a story or fable to you? …do you read the love letter & instruction guide for life daily as I do?
Without TRUTH the world is grim.
What a good good Father & Shepherd we have who gives us ALL we need if we only ask in prayer & seek HIS WISDOM FROM THE WORD OF TRUTH & LIFE !!! …. Perhaps that is why you are here ..you were praying for truth & light …OR someone was praying for you . Actually the Bible teaches that GOD IS ALWAYS THINKING OF YOU …Psalm 139 …more than the sand on the seashores are His thoughts #foryou!!! WOW …that’s a LOT OF THOTS !!
PEOPLE PERISH WITH NO HOPE BECAUSE OF LACK OF KNOWLEDGE & ESPECIALLY FOR LACK OF WISDOM !! GET TO KNOW GOD BY READING HIS WORD DAILY AND LISTENING IN YOUR HEART TO THE VOICE OF TRUTH THROUGH HIS HOLY SPIRIT IS THE KEY . GO FOR A WALK DAILY …barefoot if possible in the grass or the woods as often as possible …and LISTEN ! BE WELL ….
JESUS OFTEN ASKED FIRST …DO YOU WANT TO BE WELL ? …WE GET TO CHOOSE! …
ASK SEEK & KNOCK ON HEAVEN’S DOOR FIRST … then confirmation will come as we learn to discern. THE VOICE OF TRUTH WILL MATCH TO THE WORD OF GOD…. Not a religion …a RELATIONSHIP … MORE REAL & COMFORTING THAN I CAN EXPLAIN …. !! GET WISDOM …READ PROVERBS & PSALMS DAILY ALONG WITH GOING THRU THE WHOLE WORD OF GOD FROM GENESIS TO REVELATION …THE ONLY NEWS WE CAN COUNT ON & TRUST …A NEVER~ENDING STORY OF GRACE ….
GRACE & TRUTH FOR YOU & ME & ALL WHO WILL BELIEVE & TAKE ACTION ….FAITH IS AN ACTION WORD …JUST LIKE LOVE …
LOVE DOES SOMETHING… !
LOVE IS….
…. WAY MORE THAN WORDS
Love costs something …time & something of value from a heart of love …it did cost GOD EVERYTHING JOHN 3: 16 THE PRECIOUS SON OF GOD WHO DIED FOR YOU gave LIFE TO PROVE LOVE TO YOU AND NOW LIVES & PRAYS FOR YOU AT THE RIGHT HAND OF HIS FATHER !!!! Colossians 3
IN THE END LOVE WILL WIN & CONQUER ALL AND ACTUALLY ALREADY HAS ! REVELATION 5:5
IF YOU BELIEVE & CONFESS THIS WITH YOUR HEART & SHOW IT BY HOW YOU LIVE YOUR LIFE …NOT TO EARN IT BUT AS A THANK YOU FOR THIS GIFT OF GRACE …THEN YOU CAN DANCE WITH ME EVEN NOW OVER THE ASHES & GRAVES OF THIS WORLD THRU THE TEARS ! …BECAUSE FOR THOSE WHO LOVE …TIME IS ETERNITY … YES WEEP BUT DON’T STAY STUCK AT A GRAVE OR IN THE WORLD SYSTEM … LIVE ABOVE & RISE TO HELP OTHER’S RISE TOO !
LIVE IN LOVE PEACE & JOY …
EMMANUEL NOW & FOREVER ….
… MAY WE ALL GRIEVE WELL TO HEAL …BREATHE …& DO PLEASE HUG SOMEONE OR HUG YOURSELF NOW & OFTEN DAILY IF YOU LIVE ALONE LIKE SOME OF US SO … EACH OF US HIDES A STORY OF PAIN THAT NEEDS TLC !!! …SENDING A HUG & A PRAYER …REMEMBER THERE IS ONE WHO KNOWS & CARES 1 PETER 5:7 …. PSALM 23 EVEN IN THE VALLEYS & SHADOWS OF DEATH …THERE IS A PLACE OF PEACE WE CAN FIND REFUGE & COMFORT … ~
PRAYING & SPEAKING LIFE & JESUS OVER YOU ~ REVELATION 12:11
PHILIPPIANS 1:9-11
SHALOM & GRACE GRACE TO YOU
ROMANS 15:13 WITH JOY ….. TEARS LIKE RAIN BRING RAINBOWS …IF WE LOOK UP AND SEE GOD’S SMILING TEARS COMING DOWN TO SHOWER US WITH BLESSINGS THAT DO OFTEN COME THRU RAINDROPS …
WEEP ing may endure for a night but JOY WILL COME IN THE MOURNING FOR THOSE WHO LOOK TO HEAVEN FOR HELP ! Matthew 5:4
He was so tender & grateful as we shared hugs & tears
He played special songs while he held my hand
I’m so grateful GOD had that in the plan
For my last memory with him is in purple hues
~~~Sharing & singing BRITER heavenly blues
~~~~~~~~~~~~~

For our loved ones are not the problem you SEE
Anger guilt & pain covered in shame
Makes us blind & casting blame
He was understanding the TRUE gospel anew
~~~And now he’s singing them in heavenly blues
Have you heard the story of Jesus so dear?
God’s son sent to save us & draw us near
Nearer & nearer to the way we should live
A peace within with JOY & quick to forgive

To presence of JESUS a constant best friend, who cares
His SPIRIT wants to comfort, guide & keep
Then we can safely live, trust & sleep
SO ASK JESUS TO MAKE YOUR HEART NEW & SING GLORIOUSLY WITH ME FOREVER ~~~ETERNAL HEAVENLY BLUES …..
~~~~~~~~~~

There are links at the end to the very special songs
My son played for me during one of our last visits ( we had many hours long visits when I parked my RV home at his home that he had paid off. He said he was working on getting me a place of my own too &/or put a pad in behind his house) GOD had other plans for each of us & now he is FREE from this earth’s pain & struggle & we are left behind to carry on his legacy along with ours. He would say LAUGH MORE & BE HAPPY & that sounds like Jesus kind of living to me. ABUNDANT LIFE.
~ THESE songs meant a lot to us so do click the links below & pretend we are their
taking you to the heavenly BLUES TOO !
And a new one to me that is now my favorite & theme song for this past year since Joshua shared it with me: When….the Man comes around Johnny Cash (2018 version)

Here is a song & show I loved as a child & had not heard for decades …Joshua always knew the right song to put on for me even as a teen when he sensed things were hard. We had a special bond especially when we looked up at the stars at night. I surely do & will always miss him & will love the ones I meet on the street for him …for he like me liked to cheer the neighbors & strangers AS IF THEY WERE JESUS IN DISGUISE . …WON’T YOU JOIN US?
JOSHUA’S LAST SONG WE SHARED & I ASK YOU TO CLOSE YOUR EYES & LISTEN AS IF YOU ARE LOOKING INTO HIS EYES WITH ME …THOSE HEAVENLY BLUES …
DO YOU WANT VIBRANT HEALTH FOR ALL YOUR CELLS NO MATTER YOUR AGE ?
DO you want to know the best way to improve YOUR IMMUNE SYSTEM? … well PRAY & THEN …DO WHAT NASA HAS DONE FOR DECADES to rebuild bone & muscle mass faster than anything ~ BOUNCE ON A MINI TAMPOLINE : CLICK HERE FOR OPTIMUM HEALTH
My dad used a small mini trampoline called a rebounder along with radical nutrition at age 60 to REBOUND HIS HEALTH & restore a disabled & weak body & mind after our family’s serious car accident on the freeway. He became younger & younger in body & mind as he bounced his way to better than ever health. Even his eyesight improved & he stopped wearing glasses. So many miracles seem to happen when we get good circulation thru moving !
What a blessing & answer to prayer after years of sedentary lifestyle & sickness. His weak body became strong & he walked 5 miles almost daily until the last week of his life at age 80 after medical mistakes were made . He lived well & healthy until we sang him to his home in heaven and the room was full of heavenly peace as we saw the smile on his face.
