Sixty Five Years

Some poeple don't even make it to see 65 years on this planet.

My my grandparents just celebrated their 65th wedding anniversary!

It was bitter sweet because my granfather is still recovering from a stroke, but he is making
progress and he did get to celebrate in his own way with family.

Taxes, paperwork, business...challenging but I'll master this thing!

I am lifted and I feel God's love.
I am listening to my suggested albums on Rhapsody.
Bebo, DC Talk , Audio Adrenaline.
Music pulls me through. (God pulls me through with music)

Civic Duty

Today, I got to do my Civic Duty as a Juror.

Car accident case...something uncomfortably too familiar.
I do see that pain and suffering inflicted on another should be compensated for in some cases.
I had been in an auto wreck and had chosen the same group of lawyers to represent me.
They did a great job, but there was nothing to go after.
I wasn't quiet.

Well, lets just say I didn't get picked for the jury.

I made it to the tire shop and they checked out my tire, it wasn't repairable. Fortunately, they were able to replace it for only the cost of the valve stem and certificate for the new tire because it was under warranty (GO Discout Tires).

Made it to work and processed the mail and such.

Another day in paradise!

Rolling with the punches. Rising to the challenge.

Protection + Healing Prayer

Most High and Glorious God, Father, Son and Holy Spirit, I praise, thank, exult, magnify, glorify, worship and adore Your for who You are and all You have given me and beg forgivness for my sins. PLEASE cover me with the protective Precious Blood of Your Son, Jesus Christ (Col 1:20) and increase Your Holy Spirit in me with all the graces I need to live Your abundant life today(John 10:10c).

Holy Spirit, please remove more blocks in me to receiving and sharing Your love and grace, heal more of my negative emotionis and wounds in my heart and spirit; and sever and break all spells, curses, hexes, voodoo, witchrcraft and negative genetic, intergenerational, addictive, compulsive, subconsious, uncionsious, and abusive material pasts, present and to come, known and unknown, aganst me, my relationships and family, finances and posessions, ministry an transportation vehicles.

I ask forgiveness of my own body for not taking care of it and forgive its negative reactions to us removing all tension and stress, fear and worry. I forgive and ask forgiveness of others for my sins and failings (Mt 6:14-15) and ask that my whole person body and mind, heart and will, sould and spirit, memories and emotions, attitudes and values, fantasies, daydreams, imagination and subcionsious be healed (Mk 6:56), transformed (Rom 12:2) , and empowered by Your Holy Spirit( Acts 1:8 )

In the Name of God the Father, Son and Holy Spirit I bind and break the commands of ruling spirits to harm us in any way for purpose even in the fire, air, satanic forces of nature and all communication media and render their orders null and void leaving no area where any negative forces, spirits an their emissaries can get at us, and to tall these spirits I command you in the Name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit, to leave us peacefully and quietly and go immediately and directly to the Eucharistic presence of Jesus Christ in the closest Catholic Church tabernacle to be disposed of by Jesus and never return to harm us. Jesus, please heal the effects of these spirits in and around us.

Dear Holy Spirit, Fill me to overflowing with all You have for me and set me totally on Fire with Your consuming and purifying love so that I can be Your Light and Blessing in the world today. I pray in the Names of Jesus, Mary and Joseph, Francis & Claire.

Imaculate Heart of Mary, Spouse of the Holy Spirit, Seat of Wisdom, Cause of our joy and Queen of Peace plase pray with and for me. Amen.

It is helpful to pray this each moring. Please copy and share this prayer. We are temples of God an all in Spiritual Warfare yet we have the final Victory in Jesus Christ.

Ah, another day in the physical world.

Not too bad of a day. Stressed out a bit for no good reason. Just the usual life you know.
Trying to make ends meet. Trying to make the money and blowing it faster than I can make it.
Worked a very hard day. Got lots of work done.

Started to go out to a club with a few friends but didn't make it before I passed out for a nap.
Went out late.
Some people just don't seem to have any respect. People drop and break glasses in clubs and walk away. People throw litter around. People don't even acknowledge your presence sometimes.

As I go on through this day I take comfort again in a world beyond.
I beg for the desire and ability to make healthier choices.

Life isn't about bars, alcohol, and sex.
So may people out there don't get that concept.

I know it is love am searching for...and I just seem to hang out in the wrong places sometimes.

As the memories of the lonely night fade, I encompass myself with the Love from above..


Peace.

Rolling with the punches Rising to the Challenge

Greetings.

Yesterday, as I got in my poor beat up vehicle to go home...I realized that the battery seemed to have no power at all. Nothing electronic was working...not even the slightest beep. It started fine to get me to work.....and I parked on a flat surface on the fourth level of a car garage...Unfortunately the hood is bolted down, so getting a jump isn't too easy. I pushed it halfway across the garage over to the down ramp....someone showed up and helped and gave me a little push and I went sailing down the little ramp.....had it in first...popped the clutch ...nothing...sailed down a bit more..popped the clutch... YAY.. Life had ignited in my poor seemingly dead beat up car.

On the drive home, I drove around a disabled vehicle in my lane...and heard a crunch. I was afraid then I had run over something that might cause a leak in my tire. Sure enough this morning when I got up I had an almost flat tire. Fortunately I had an n electric portable tire pump in my trunk. I got enough air in it to hold me up on the way to work.

Thank God I got home and I got back here anyways, despite the obstacles.

Seem to every time I need to!

Rolling with the punches
Rising to the challenge!

Day One of my first official Blog!

Too much on the brain! Had to to get some of it out!

My physical body is aching and tired and worn down and weary.

While my soul floats around, I pound out a few lines on the keyboard. My spirit is lifted in mysterious ways while my body drags. Melonchony days.

I feel as if I know where I am at and I know where I am going. I am headed to a place of triumph, of victory and I am not going alone. I am going with the strength of Jesus Christ and I am taking as many as I can.

At times it feels af if I am under attack. My transportation vechiles, my way of earning a living, my emotional state, my family. I will stand strong. I can do all things in christ who strengthens me! The witching hour it is at the moment! Amazing!

Jesus' sweet mercy covers me.

As I lay me down to sleep, my soul dear Lord I pray you keep.

Good night world!

The joy of the Lord fills my soul!

May the peace of the Lord be with you!

XOXOXO
