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

I can't wait 
God BlessAlesia 
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! 
In return for my love they accuse me, but I continue to pray. 
. . . ever since we have resided here I have done a tremendous amount of walking & yesterday was the first time I ever had a police officer 
stop me to inquire what I was doing, where I was going & to see my ID . . . I wasn't insulted, actually I was pleased they are taking time to check the area out more . . . but then I thought about it & realized how serious things have become around this way 
. . . we have a large amount of houses 
abandoned like so many other areas are having, talking to a parent at the school I mentioned I read in Reader's Digest how some neighborhoods are getting together to keep the up keep 
of these homes nice, trying to discourage vandalism & theft 
. . . . while I thought that was a nice idea I was more hopeful to be reading how neighbors were coming together to help each other avoid foreclosure . . . sometime back I read an article about a neighborhood who during the Great Depression did this, they had small "parties" were they gathered food together for everyone, items not needed were provided for those in need, they would even gather what limited funds they could to help out each other . . . the parent I was speaking with told me how he read that many who are "leaving their houses" are throwing parties where they invite others over to come take what they want of the house . . . I am not sure 
how I feel about that, I really am divided as I sit on the fence with this thought . . . when he mentioned this it made me realize something . . . we have two sorts of foreclosure going on 1) were some people seemingly can get out & when they do they decide to strip their house 2) some people have no choices, no where to go, not sure what to do & have to be physically escorted out by the sheriff's leaving many possessions behind . . . while I feel for everyone who is losing their houses, I feel worse for those who are being kicked out & have the sheriff knocking on their door 
to chat a bit . . . I like the neighbor but was having difficulty "talking" with him, right when I saw him pull up I asked "God please put a lock 
on my mouth" . . . he has been helping The People Above The Stairs move out, which is great! I don't want you to think I don't wish for them to receive help, that is not the case . . . the reason I knew I would be needing a lock was I knew he would tell me things that I would want to counter-react to 
. . . I would feel the need to tell "our story" to things that have been said . . . make sense? Yeah 
. . . well I knew the lock wouldn't stay, why? Because even thou I know we know things, others know things & most importantingly God knows things I still have this "desire" to tell 
. . . a lot ! I think I behave well, thou I know I could have behaved much better . . . he told me about another neighbor who is walking away too . . . he confirmed some things about The People Above The Stairs that deep in my heart I already knew, especially some of the lies they have told us 
. . . the thing is I didn't ask, just him talking they came out . . . it stings, it hurts, it makes you wonder but what can I do? I'll tell you what I can & am going to do . . . I believe in the Lord, I trust in the Lord! 
. . . then I got the "can't you? did you? why don't you?" speech . . . all I can do is smile as I realize how easy it is for each of us to give this speech when we are not in that persons shoes . . . they mean well so I am not offended even when they walk away as clucking their tongues & saying "well I wouldn't put my children through that" . . . nice eh? it is okay, it is okay . . . I am not thrilled with the area we have to go, we have tried just about every humanly possibly method we can to not go there but . . . well it comes down to money & connections . . . down here we have neither but we do have something greater . . . God! I believe in the Lord, I trust in the Lord! I know He will not let any harm befall us! Oh I still have fears & doubts, but my faith is stronger & I have to stay true to that! Glory Be To God & Praise Sweet Jesus! 
God, I've been harboring unforgiveness in my heart. Please forgive me and help me forgive those who've harmed me. Thank You for Your love. Amen.
