| COOL BABY |
Aug 28, 2006 12:46 pm
Mood: content, 668 Views |  | When I was a baby, my dad used to thrill with taking me around town and showing to everyone.
When I was born, he had something else new too.
His very first (and only ever) brand new car off the parking lot. That's me at 13 1/2 months oldsitting on the trunk of my dad's 14 month old 1959 Chevy Bel-Aire, complete with tail fins.
Two weeks before my birth, my dad determined that his bride and their new baby (me) was not going to ride in an old car, so he bought a brand new one. It was light blue in color, and I do remember this car which he had until I was 7 years old. |

| HERE'S THE PROOF |
Aug 27, 2006 11:03 pm
Mood: nostalgic, 608 Views |  | I think I have said a couple times that I have been saved since I was a young child? God has always been in my life, and here is proof of my devotion.
The cute little guy in the pic is me at around a year and half old. Yeah, yeah, I know what happened to me? Long story.
This was taken on Easter in 1961, (or so I'm told. I don't remember even though I was there)I'm dressed in my first suit, and on my way to church.
You can see my dad was trying to hold me back because I was so excited over learning about my Lord and Savior. |

| NOW I KNOW |
Aug 27, 2006 3:29 pm
Mood: nostalgic, 611 Views |  | I just figured out why it is I find red heads so enticing. It runs in the family.
Now I have two aunts on my mother's side that are red heads, but they are not in my direct genetic line.
However, my grandmother was, and I didn't know she was a red head. As far back as I remember she had white hair.
But when my mother gave me the photo posted with this blog entry, she told me that her mother had red hair.
This B&W photo is of my mother's family in the mid 1940s. Both her parents, herself, her twin brother, and the two next brothers in age. My grandmother was pregnant with one of my red haired aunts at the time of this photo.
So the mystery is solved. |

| MORE THEN CONQUERORS |

Mood: jubilant, 424 Views |  | Rom 8:37 Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us.
Rom 8:38 For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come,
Rom 8:39 Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord. |

Mood: jubilant, 342 Views |  | 1Th 4:14 For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him.
1Th 4:15 For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep.
1Th 4:16 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:
1Th 4:17 Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.
1Th 4:18 Wherefore comfort one another with these words. |

| LETTER FROM HEAVEN (dedicated to IMAVESSEL) |
Aug 19, 2006 12:45 am
Mood: sad, 376 Views |  | I was very saddened to hear of IMAVESSEL'S mom passing. I wish to dedicate my blog today to honor her. I have a heartfelt story that was E-mailed to me when my dad passed on earlier this year. A bitter sweet story really. It came to me entitled, "I know you will cry," and while it will make even the toughest man cry, I think a more appropreate title is LETTER FROM HEAVEN.
Here it is.
> Sally jumped up as soon as she saw the surgeon come out of the operating room. She said: "How is my little boy? Is he going to be all right? When can I see him?"
> The surgeon said, "I'm sorry. We did all we could, but your boy didn't make it."
> Sally said, "Why do little children get cancer? Doesn't God care any more?
Where were you, God, when my son needed you?"
The surgeon asked, "Would you like some time alone with your son! ? One of the nurses will be out in a few minutes, before he's transported to the university."
Sally asked the nurse to stay with her while she said good-bye to son. She ran her fingers lovingly through his thick red curly hair.
"Would you like a lock of his hair?" the nurse asked.
Sally nodded yes. The nurse cut a lock of the boy's hair, put it in a plastic bag and handed it to Sally.
The mother said, "It was Jimmy's idea to
donate his body to the university for study. He said it might help somebody else. "I said no at first, but Jimmy said, 'Mom, I won't be using it after I die. Maybe it will help some other little boy spend one more day with his Mom." She went on, "My Jimmy had a heart of gold. Always thinking of someone else. Always wanting to help others if he could."
Sally walked out of Children's mercy Hospital for the last time, after spending most of the last six months there. She put the bag with Jimmy's
belongings on the seat beside her in the car. The drive home was difficult.
> It was even harder to enter the empty house. She carried Jimmy's belongings, and the plastic bag with the lock of his hair to her son's room. She started placing the model cars and other personal things back in his room exactly where he had always kept them. She laid down across his bed and, hugging his pillow, cried herself to sleep.
It was around midnight when Sally awoke. Laying beside her on the bed was a folded letter. The letter said:
> "Dear Mom, I know you're going to miss me; but don't think that I will ever forget you, or stop loving you, just 'cause I'm not around to say I LOVE YOU. I will always love you, Mom, even more with each day. Someday we will see each other again. Until then, if you want to adopt a little boy! so you won't be so lonely, that's okay with me. He can have my room and old stuff to play with. But, if you decide to get a girl instead, she probably wouldn't like the same things us boys do. You'll have to buy her dolls and stuff girls like, you know.
Don't be sad thinking about me. This really is a neat place. Grandma and Grandpa met me as soon as I got here and showed me around some, but it w ill take a long time to see everything. The angels are so cool. I love to watch them fly. And, you know what? Jesus doesn't look like any of his pictures.. Yet, when I saw Him, I knew it was Him. Jesus himself took me to see GOD! And guess what, Mom? I got to sit on God's knee and talk to Him, like I was somebody important.
That's when I told Him that I wanted to write you a letter, to tell you good-bye and everything. But I already knew that wasn't allowed. Well, you know what Mom? God handed me some paper and His own personal pen to write you this letter. I think
Gabriel is the name of th! e angel who is going to drop this letter off to you. God said for me to give you the answer to one of the questions you asked Him 'Where was He when I needed him?' "God said He was in the same place with me, as when His son Jesus was on the cross. He was right there, as He always is with all His children.
Oh, by the way, Mom, no one else can see what I've written except you. To everyone else this is just a blank piece of paper. Isn't that cool? I have to
> give God His pen back now. He needs it to write some more names in the Book of Life. Tonight I get to sit at the table with Jesus for supper. I'm, sure the food will be great.
Oh, I almost forgot to tell you. I don't hurt anymore. The cancer is all gone. I'm glad because I couldn't stand that pain anymore and God couldn't stand to see me hurt so much, either. That's when He sent The Angel of Mercy to come get me. The Angel said I was a Special Delivery! How about that?
Signed with Love from: God, Jesus & Me. |
