I WAITED patiently and expectantly for the Lord and He inclined to me and heard my cry. He drew me up out of a horrible pit ( a pit of tumult and of destruction ), out of the miry clay ( froth and slime), and set my feet upon a rock, steadying my steps and establishing my goings. And He has put a new song in my mouth, a song of praise to our God. 
~ Psalm 40:13
Lord, don't leave me; my God, don't go away. Quickly come and help me, my Lord and Savior. 


Please take a moment, watch, listen, learn, live 
Pleasant words are as a honeycomb, sweet to the mind and healing to the body.
~Proverbs 16:24

Well Good Golly Ms. Molly
MARYA
! I have not "seen" you in a month of Sundays! What a grand Blessing this is indeed! I am so on my way over
I was weak today, as blodd test result was ready and nurse called me doctor urged to meet on next Monday morning. She said it's liver problem !
Just stopping by to say "HI"!
thanks for the visit-hope to write more over the weekend-chairs are great, what a wonderful find-have a great day!

We shall not turn back from You; Give us life, and we will call upon Your name! Restore us, O Lord God of hosts! Let Your face shine, that we may be saved! 

the kids back from school we decided to detour to a wooded trail to do a bit of exploring before heading back to the houses
. . . it is a beautiful area of trees
& a small creek that have been subjected to abuse & neglect from other visitors, other words the liter
there is mind bogglin'
!
over . . . I was okay with them "ice skating" for the ice was very solid & when some areas did crack it was layers that went down to about 1/2" - 1" so I had no fear of them drowning nor getting soaked
. . . I wished I had brought my camera
so I could show you the area, even with the trash
to me it was an area that draws you in . . .
we noted an individual up the street with Madison
( a dog that is a grand escape artist whom comes to visit with us ), at first we did not recognize
the individual so my oldest girl
went up there to see if she could help . . turns out it was the ex wife of the owner to the dog, Mrs. R, her back is not well
so it took her a bit of time to get to our area & when she did I asked "We have not seen you in quite some time! I almost did not realize it was you!How are you?" & that was when she broke down
. . . majorly! I was concerned she would collapse from the sobbing! 
, I believe it was near Labor Day, her son who was residing with her ex husband that lives just a few houses
over was arrested
. . . I wrote
of that incident, but briefly he was high on PCP & went to a park with over 13 stolen guns & ammunition & held a few people hostage for some hours, Thank God 
no one was hurt! His actions have caused serious turmoil
in that household . . . his parents are elderly
& not in the best of physical health & now their spiritual strength has been strained greatly
. . . my oldest girl
& I stayed there for a bit of 45 minutes & I was completely exhausted
when we returned back to the house
. . . which gave me only the slightest glimpse of what they must be enduring each & everyday!!!! I listened & I talked but truth be told I found it was better I listened for I was not sure what to say
. . . my heart broke
for them . . . I Pray
for them . . .
that helped me during some difficult times, I enjoyed them for they helped me see some things better, differently without subjecting you to guilt . . . something no one needs during a hardship . . . I am so very hopeful they will be of some help to her . . .
as listening to them during our brief visit & watching them . . . are there support groups for Parents who have Adult Children in jail? I know there are support groups for children with parents in jail, there are even support groups for spouses but what about the parents? Their son's lawyer
will not talk to them but gladly excepts any money
they pay up for their son's defense! The jails physcratist will not even discuss anything with them! The sons wife who he is separated from & has a child with does not inform them of anything for she is washing her hands
to the situation but gladly takes money
from them that they send for the child! This situation has even effected the dogs
. . . the parents
are presently trying to care for this animals but are having a difficult time . . . one due to their health as well as it now being an added expense, it is pretty clear the animals will have to be given to the Human Society
. . . so this sons actions are not only effecting the people in his life but the animals as well
. . . and he does not care one lick
!!! . . . when the Mother speaks to her son he blames her, it is her fault he is there he yells at her, he tells her how there is ice on his window & how she can change places with him . . . she provides him with money
for his jail account, items he needs
, a lawyer
but yet he thrives on blaming her for all of this
. . . he is 38 years old & the effects his actions have on this family are heartwrenching!
I am . . . oh I have always known I am Blessed
& I always give thanks & praise to God & Jesus 
but now I realize a bit more how Blessed I am
. . . do I judge them? No, how can I? Can I help them? I am going to try . . . I have them in my Prayers
& I ask that God shows me what He is wanting me to do . . . something that I feel was placed in my heart
is find a support group for them . . . thus far I am finding this to be a fruitless & frustrating search!
