Psalm 34:4
Surely God is my help;
the Lord is the One who sustains me.
Lord, I have noticed
Your presence, here with me
Something undeserved
But will forever be
Because Your promise holds,
Your Word convicts, is true
When all else crumbles, fails,
I'm here because of You.
Amen.
My friends, I will be taking another break from the blog for the time being. I'm going to visit with my mother for Mother's Day, and since I can never count on her dinosaur of a computer to respond how I hope, I'll not be publishing a new post until a week from this coming Friday (May 17th). God's blessings upon you all, and especially for all the moms out there who sacrifice so much in the name of love for your children and your family! And always remember the Lord who sustains us all!
Bon voyage. Wishing you a splendid holiday and a great Mother's Day.
ReplyDeleteGod bless you and your family.
Thank you, Victor!

Will miss your comments on my blogs but know it is much more important to be with your mom, even with a dinosaur. :) Happy Mother's Day to you also Martha.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Bill! At least know I can still read your devotions while I'm gone; just difficult to comment, but I can still try.

Oh, how wonderful that you will be with your Mom for Mother's day. I hope you have a blessed and beautiful time with her. Treasure these days while you can. Take lots of pictures. Have a blessed Mother's Day.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much, Pam! I am looking forward to spending extended time with Mom, and am excited, too, because my son will be going with me. That will be a great Mother's Day gift for her.
DeleteHappy Mother's Day to you, too!
Love and blessings!

How I'm love this photo! Wishing you safe travels, lots of smiles and memory making!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much, Mevely! Yes, that photo was taken on one of our trips to the NC mountains, and I've always liked it.

I hope you have a wonderful time with your mom, Martha. I did read your posts when I was on break last month, though I didn't comment. I especially loved the photos of your granddaughters, and the treasure box Danny passed on to Virginia brought tears to my eyes. Such a beautiful memory for her, and I'm sure for you and Danny as well when you saw her joy. Love and blessings to you!
ReplyDeleteTrudy, I'm so delighted that you took time to read my posts when you were on hiatus. It means so much to me, whether you leave a comment or not. And yes, the posts you've mentioned here are two of my favorites as well. I know how blessed we are to have these special granddaughters, even when they are impish! :)
DeleteHappy Mother's Day!
Love and blessings!
Martha, I will miss your beautiful post and pics. However, I'm praying for a blessed Mother's Day trip.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much, Beckie! I will certainly be reading blogs, such as yours, but it's so difficult to respond on my outdated phone. Just know I'll be reading and enjoying.
DeleteHappy Mother's Day!

ReplyDeleteThat's the plan, Jean. Mom truly does need a visit at this time, and I'm just counting my blessings that she is still here with us. My son will be going down there with me, too, so that is an extra bonus for her!
