I don't get technology!

 Hi everyone,

  I'm heading to Bismarck today so I don't have much time to write.  Please keep me in your prayers as being gone two days in a row is usually pretty hard on my legs.

  Yesterday my special neighbors picked me up and we went to paradise.  No kidding.  A retired fellow who loves flowers has created an unforgettable place of beauty.   The only place more lovely is the Peace Gardens which sits on the border of the US and Canada.  This is the sight that greats you when you get out of your car.  The entire yard is filled with flower beds and trees and bushes of great interest.

  Now I'd like to get a bee balm plant.  It is stunning and I was just reading that it repels mosquitos too!  I wonder how much they cost?  HMMM


Dave also is a world wide hunter.  He opens up his home to his guests to see his collection so far.  It's absolutely amazing as he has everything from a walrus to an alligator and too many bears, antelope and moose to count.  Here's a sample of photos I took inside Dave's house which also includes TWO waterfalls.







Now that photo is being ornery as I had it lined up nicely under the others.  I'll tell you something about myself.  I have VERY little patience with technology when I can't get it to do what I want it to do.  Sorry about that.

Sorry also that I don't have time to find a song this morning.  However, the Passion Translation just sent me this email.  WOW  Does it ever speak to me seeing as I have MS.  Multiple Sclorosis is a situation where the immune system attacks the coating on the nerves.  For me that means pain 24/7 mostly in my legs.  Mental decline also hits me if I don't train my brain daily with Lumosity.  Anyway, pain is a very much unwanted companion to me.  I'll share soon  about the natural morphine product that helps me deal with it.  

   Oh bother, now it's in the right spot.  Oh well, I hope you don't expect perfection here.  lol 

  Have a great day.

I Hear His Whisper...

Pain is healed in my love.

In the safety of my love is where pain heals. Some wounds I heal slowly. With gentle breath that won’t quench a sacred ember of hope, I bring you back to life. I cradle you safely in my arms. Other times, I come roaring with such passionate might that you’re healed in an instant.

 

No matter how I heal you, I do heal you. But you must let me. Fall into my arms off the edge of despair. Come into unreserved trust in me and let go of your pain. Place it in my hands—my nail-scarred hands. Choose to relinquish the identity of your pain that you have connected with. Remember who I am and who you are. It’s okay to feel pain, but it cannot define you, beloved. Give me your reasons for holding on to the pain. Surrendering doesn’t make you weak. It makes you brave. Though it’s scary at first, I will knock down those walls you’ve erected to protect yourself. Don’t worry, I will be right by your side.

Psalm 34:18–19

The Passion Translation

 

The Lord is close to all whose hearts are crushed by pain, and he is always ready to restore the repentant one. Even when bad things happen to the good and godly ones, the Lord will save them and not let them be defeated by what they face.
