Coming Home - Prayer Request Update

On December 24th, 2016 my Dad went into the hospital.

This morning, January 25th, 2017, he is supposed to come home from a nursing facility.

He still has a life vest, and he needs pureed food.

He will need home health care.

He has been able to walk with a walker at times, but he has low blood pressure with exercise.

We are nervous and excited, and I'm not sure that we are prepared enough!

It has been a long stressful time - what with us first having the flu, and now a cold virus is in the house (which came from the nursing home).

I've also been having other issues going on for me and other family members, so it's really been tough.

I wish that I would trust God enough to be at peace, but I'm thankful that God has mercy and grace for those of us who are weak.

I continue to cry out to Him when I feel I can't endure.

I am thankful for the prayers of the saints.

There will be hurdles and difficulties, so I hope that you will continue to pray!

Don't Let It Slip On By

I don't know who sings this song, but the story in it is very touching about not missing opportunities to get close to and spend time with those in your family.
 
Even those serving in ministries need to remember the ministry they have with their own family.  Time is fleeting, and those at home or closest to us are impacted by what is done or isn't done as well.  Also, sometimes people can so focus on ministry that they miss out on getting to know the people that God might use as a blessing, encouragement or an instrument of growth in their lives....as well as others they might minister to and ignore instead.

Being limited by Fibromyalgia, P.O.T.S. and possible neurocardiogenic syncope issues I have a lot more time to think, but even I can get sidetracked by things online.  I want to be an encouragement and care about those God brings into my life in person or online.
Here are some verses I found that go along with the sentiments of the song I'm sharing today.
Romans 12:10
Ephesians 6:2
Ephesians 5:25
Ephesians 5:15-16

I find the scrapbook photo style of this video rather unique and fun.

My Reasons To Vote for Rick Santorum

I did a couple of videos recently about reasons for my choosing to vote for Rick Santorum for President.    I actually already voted in early voting here in the state where I live now.  Even though no delegates were pledged to Rick already, he can have delegates appointed for him later.

I admit that I did have to read off what I wrote for the video, and the editing didn't work so well that I used. Still, I was so eager to share this that I didn't want to try my other program.

I hope that you will watch this, no matter if you are planning to vote for someone else. This video deals with some issues that are important to me especially as a Christian.
