    A Servant's Prayer

    Jesus, MY Jesus... How marvelous your ways...
    Far more splendid than my mind can envision. What an
    honor to be chosen by you. A lowly child I am, but empowered
    by the Holy Spirit to fulfill the great hope to which you have
    called me. I give myself totally to you, Lord. Take my imperfect
    heart and make it perfect. Peel away the hardness. Close the doors
    I have opened to the temptations of this world. Gently remove the
    roots of painful memories, sins, doubts and fears. Discard anything
    that separates me from you. Lord, fill the emptiness with the light of
    your love that I might be a beacon calling the lost back to you.

    To love as you love...
    To serve as you serve...
    To heal as you heal...
    To forgive as you forgive...
    always mindful of my nothingness while doing
    great and marvelous things in you name and for
    you glory. This I pray, Jesus, in YOUR name.
    Amen

  • Hello All,
    I just wanted to let you know how my moms appointment went yesterday. Doctor said there are no traces of Cancer cells and the side effects she is having will eventually work themselves out of her system.
  • Christina!! Woohoo that is excellent news!!!! I bet your mom is so relieved. I'll pray for continued healing for her re: the side effects. You know, my mom is a breast-cancer survivor and she had chemo and radiation. That was over 10 years ago now. So it is possible.

    p.s. Who's the cutie?

    HI GALS

    Had a short day at work today, my son and I are going down to my daughter's tennis match. A beautiful sunny day here today```quite a switch from earlier this week, there is more rain expected the rest of the week though``could complain...but no one cares

    Had a nice Valentine's Day, I got off a little early and Angie was off for Lincoln's birthday...I got her a Golden Retreiver coffee mug and the DVD of Bull Durham...did all my shopping at Ralph's Grocery store I told her not to get me anything because we really need to tighten the belts with 2 house payments coming up..she got a card and wrote something in it..ah..I can't share...sorry

    SUE So good to have you back! The house in Washington is a 3 bedroom, 2 bath...2,021 I think...we have added on a little to the original plans so I am not quite sure yet...it is in a planned community with 2 parks and over 3 miles of walking trails...I hope to remember to bring the camera this week-end, if I do I will post some up-date pictures of the progress. Stay warm!

    SPROUT Cute puppy!! Bet your daughter just adores it!! Humm, could be a new walking companion

    MICHELE Hope the Valentine Card was "wanted" from Rick....John sounds shy, then again maybe he is just taking it slow. All will work out. Congrats on the no gain!! Christina's picture looks like the rocker on LOST.

    WILMA You are tooooooooo funny

    Didn't I ever mention that I was MARRIED? What colors and style will WE be picking? Kidding right? Oh, Angie ALWAYS asks for my input...where she PUTS my input I have NO IDEA
    I take lipitor for my cholestrol and it really helps, doc says diet and exercise wouldn't change my high cholestrol enough to matter...it is in control as of last check...have one coming up though, whenever I give blood...every couple of months, they say my blood pressure is outstanding..of course I can never remember what it is 'cause my memory is not even close to being outstanding

    CHRISTINA Congrats on your mom's news!

    WELL I HOPE EVERYONE ELSE IS DOING WELL ANS JUST TOO BUSY TO POST!

    Off to the grocery store...Gary


  • Hi Christina, What wonderful news... I will continue to keep your mother in my prayers, as I am sure that the illness from the meds is wearing on her {{{Hugs}}} for you both!

    Is that guy in your avatar from the show *Lost* on Wednesday nights?


    Hi Michele!


    Time for me to get back to making my cards...
    I have lots of cards to make this month!

  • Marilyn, thanks for sharing pics of Koko, gosh she is so cute!!! How about a pic of you? I don't think we've seen you yet.
  • Hiya.

    I am a little excited . Today I bought some jeans that are two sizes smaller WooHoo! It is such a good feeling to shop because your clothes are getting baggy
    Yes, it is the the guy from Lost. I know him better from Lord Of The Rings.
    I usually work on Wednesday so I don't get to watch Lost...I have to get updates from other people. I do like to watch CSI...I'm a new fan. There are nights where I have to turn it because I have a weak stomach to some things

    Have A Good Day
  • Woohoo for Christina...
    Christina! My goodness, you should be excited! 2 sizes down is quite the accomplishment. Keep up the good work, sweets.
