"In The Middle"

I Wrote this post on my MySpace account after spending time with Sylvie before she passed away on April 21,2008. Sylvie attended our church.

"In the Middle"
Life in the middle can be a difficult place.
The elderly are leaving.
The young are moving on.
Those in the middle, sometimes life seems to stand still.
I have spent the last 13 days in the hospital caring for a dear old lady who will soon be home with the Lord. Her life is precious to the Lord and yet she is most assuredly will be leaving earth for eternity with the Lord. During this time I have been blessed to be by her side.
On the other side of life, our children are growing in their marriages and families. What a blessed time for them.Life is rapidly changing for all of them.
For myself and my hubby, most often than not, it is just the two of us.....in the middle.
I am most thankful to my wonderful Savior who has, in his infinate wisdom. ...kept me in the middle.

God's Creation
Today I have spent most of the day pondering God's Creation.

Do you know that He, the God of the Universe, created ALL things....

He created me.

He created my hubby.

He created the trees.

He created the seas.

He created birds.

He created words.

He created my pain.

He created my brain.

He created my joys.

He created my boys.

He created my girl.

He created the world to swirl.

He created me as art.He created my heart.

He created pleasure.

He created life's measure.

Oh, Praise Him!

Oh, Praise Him!
