God Bless America

We the people,
In order to form a more perfect union,
Establish justice,
insure domestic tranquility,
Provide for the common defense,
Promote the general welfare and Secure the blessings of liberty
To ourselves and our posterity
Do ordain and establish this
Constitution for the United States of America

Do not use liberty as an opportunity for the flesh, but through love serve one another. —Galatians 5:13

Rise to the occasion of our forefathers, for the Glory of our Lord whom this country was founded upon.

Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands, ye sinners; and purify your hearts, ye double minded. James 4:8

Many Blessings on our country's Independence Day.

Thistle Adversity

Shall we indeed accept good from God, and shall we not accept adversity? —Job 2:10

I can understand raspberries, strawberries, radishes, and even danilions but thistle. I believe that thistle is God's little reminder that we will never fully understand his plan. Maybe it is part of the curse. I don't understand, the are just like a very unpleasent person, deep rooted, full of thorns and always trying to choke out life. They are God's creation and part of his plan, I just don't want them in my garden. But I do thank God for thistles because if there weren't any than Braveheart just wouldn't have been the same.

Changing Seasons

The season has changed so quickly I am trying to catch my breath. Due to current circumstances I will be hanging up my apron and jumping back in to my scrubs. Not very often can a gal be happy about this kind of thing but I am overjoyed. My dad is in dire need of an experience dental assistant and we are in dire need of reducing our debt. A win win situation. The third part of this is our beloved Grandma Debbie is finally moving in with us in our greatest need. It is times like this when you know God is working in your life. It is only 3 days a week but it will help much. Grandma Debbie and I can split the homeschooling duties. I am currently trying to pick out cirriculum, I just want a lot of organization. Dental Assisting at my dad's is very demanding so we must run a very tight ship. I am so excited we could us a little shaking up in our routine and much more structure. I am so happy to be giving relief to my husband.
