What Keeps You Going?





Sometimes, you just gotta stop and smell the flowers (in Israel if you can).....or if it's winter, stop and watch the birds. If God looks after the birds in the air, what makes you think that He won't look after you? He even knows the number of hairs on our head...wow! He looks after me day after day....why wouldn't I be open to His guidance and suggestions as to how I am to live? I'd be crazy not to...He only wants the best for me. Oh, how I love Him so. Right now I'd love to go and smell the flowers again in Israel - which are pictured above - but I'll have to settle with watching the birds out here in the cold prairies. :-) Both are good. I got lots to be thankful for.




Happiness keeps you Sweet,
Trials keep you Strong,
Sorrows keep you Human,
Failures keep you Humble,
Success keeps you Glowing,
But Only God Keeps You Going!

I received this in an email today and really liked and thought I had to post it. ONLY GOD KEEPS ME GOING!! I like that! Cause it's so true! Think about those words, what trials do, what failures do, what happiness does....read them slowly.....only God keeps you going. Very powerful words in that short paragraph.

Allow God to keep you going. It's the best way!
God bless you!

Glad you had a great time in Israel! Your comments on the Ray Vanderlaan series brought back memories. We'd love to go again. Nice to see pictures of your kids. Say hi to Roger!
