God has a Plan

Hello!!

Isn't wonderful to know

that God has a plan for our life??

He knew us before we were born,

and had a plan just for you!! Just for me!!

I love this weeks verse at Word Art Wednesday:

What a wonderful promise and blessing for each of us!!
I also came across this wonderful word of truth this week:

Although Jesus may not always approve of our actions or choices, 

He always approves of us as a person whom He created, 

whom He loves, and whom He thought 

was important enough to die for.   -Tracie Miles

We are IMPORTANT to God!!

Right down to the plan for our life!! 

WOW!! What an AMAZING God I serve!!

I so hope that you do too!!

Having said that....

Here is the card I created using the verse at

Word Art Wednesday.

I'll also be using it for the challenge at 

Stampin' Sisters in Christ. We are to use something new

on our card this week. The paper, flower and pearls

are all new things used on my card!!

Thanks so much for stopping by!!
I hope you found some encouragement in this post!!
I hope that each and everyone of you,

have a wonderful, love filled week, knowing

that GOD loves you, cares for you and

has a plan for your life!!

Until next time.......................tootles!!

The Lord is my Strength

Hello everyone!!

I know I seem to be MIA lately,

but a lot has been happening in my world.

I was dreadfully ill for more than 2weeks,

I recovered just in time for my mother to

find out that her heart wasn't doing well,

and needed a pacemaker. They placed

that for her on Monday. She is doing well.

She has her arm in a sling, so she needs

a little help with things, so I have been running to her

house to help her out this week.

Wednesday, my oldest sister, spent the night

in the ER. 16 years ago she had

a brain tumor that almost claimed her life.

The symptoms are back, and do to her addictions and
 life issues, no one is really taking things seriously.

I spoke with her Dr. yesterday and they are

going to be doing a scan of her brain as soon as possible.

We pray that there's nothing there!! Please join us in

praying that it's something else. She was so sick last

time, and seriously was given no hope!!

Mother has been quite worried as well.

It doesn't help that she's laying in bed a lot

at the moment and gives her plenty of time to

think and go over Donna's issues and

surgery from before. Our family would

truly benefit from any prayers you could speak

on out behalf right now!!

Thank you so much!!

With all that...I only have one card done this week!!

It's for the challenges at

Card Patterns, Stampin' Sisters in Christ

and Word Art Wednesday.

(I had to scan this instead of taking a pix. It's much

more crisp and pretty IRL)

Thanks so much for stopping by!!

I hope you have a wonderful, love filled weekend!!

Until next time.....................tootles!!
