Remnants


Meaning the last post of the week...I am thankful for Friday and even more that tomorrow is Sabbath. Today the snow is flying like crazy. Everyone who left for break yesterday can count their blessings, because the blizzard has hit! This week I received my gas bill in the mail, and what a disappointment. $150! PLEASE! And that's for one person. Needless to say, I turned my heat down to 63...burr, and I will be putting plastic on my windows...maybe I will just seran wrap the whole house!! :) So life is fun since adding all these new bills. Through this though I am learning about trusting in God. He did provide me my house so I am trusting Him with the outcome.
During Thanksgiving I was at my grandparent's house in Kansas. They are so much fun and I always learn new things when I go there. This time it was a fun ride behind my grandpa's lawn mower. He hocked up a wagon type deal that we
all sat on as we rode around their property. They have several fruit trees, sweet potatoes, strawberries, grapes, green beans, tomatoes, squash, corn and many other things that they harvest and can every fall. We have always said that when the time of the end hits we will go there because of all the stocks of food they have. My Grandma always says that they eat off the "fat of the land." She is so funny and always brings a smile to everyone she talks to.

I am looking forward to heaven where we will be together all the time with our families. I know that we will talk about many things like...how good the fruit is off the tree of life, how much the angels did to protect us and how we were redeemed by Jesus' blood. Happy Sabbath!

that was a nice thanksgiving! Never a dull moment and suprises always around the corner. I think two of the nicest surprises was Dallas fixing brushetta and his goat cheese appetizer. M-M-good! And then seeing Tim and Heather and little Jackson David in the making.
