?If you can believe it, you can achieve it?
2007-09-26 19:37:00
"If you can believe it, you can achieve it" is one of many clichés that I have told myself over the years. I was reading a blog by Brett Noel entitled Child Abuse and Success- Where do they cross? And as I wrote a comment to his inspiring post, it made me think of my past, and how I came to be who I am today. I grew up poor. Dirt poor. We lived on the system, got food stamps, and lived in Section 8 housing. I wore hand me down clothes most of the time, and there were many occasions where we would have to live without lights, gas, or water because we were stretched so thin that one of the bills would ultimately not get paid. Having lived through that, I remember being determined never to have these things happen to me in my adult life, and I remember making a solid oath that my kids would never experience these things either. While reading Brett's blog, I realized how thankful I am for growing up the way that I did. I went through a season of being...

Over the River and Through the Woods Scenic Byway
2007-09-20 20:34:00
Beginning in the rich farmland of the Willamette Valley, this 66 mile route then winds along rushing streams and through thick forests, climbing into the West Cascades and McKenzie Pass, and joins the McKenzie Pass- Santiam Pass National Scenic Byway. Much of the Byway parallels the Santiam Wagon Road, and this road was built to lead livestock ranchers east to pasture lands in Central Oregon, as well as to gold mines in Eastern Oregon and Idaho. The Byway begins on Interstate 5. Moving East from Interstate 5, you'll first come to Brownsville Oregon, which was settled in 1846 and is Oregon's third oldest town. To learn more about the historic Scenic Byway Tour, you can visit these websites: http://www.brownsvilleoreg on.org/http://www.sweethomeoregon.org/hom e.cfm?dir_cat=32896http://www.travelorego n.com/Explore-Oregon/Willamette-Valley/Tr ips-We-Love/Over-the-River -and-Through-th e-Woods .aspx Brought To You By: Alecia A.

Keeping the Faith
2007-08-23 21:01:00
I just wanted to say thanks to the many fellow believers who have posted words of encouragement during these trying times. At times I have been battling with FEAR of the unknown, and yet, I always seem to find peace through reading the blogs with scriptures I can meditate on, and pray about. I wish for each and everyone of you to have the wisdom and peace that passes all understanding. Thanks so much for your prayers, let's continue to uplift each other, and pray for one another daily. My prayer for you all is to be blessed, shaken down and running over with his grace. ( My constant prayer) God Bless You!

Rejoice in the Lord always! And again I say Rejoice!
2007-07-20 19:55:00
Phil 4:4 Rejoice in the Lord always. And again I say, Rejoice! Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which trancends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.I also read this wonderful psalm today, and was so encouraged by it, that I wanted to share it as well- Psalm 121:1 I lift my eyes to the hills-Where does my help come from?My help comes from the Lord,The Maker of heaven and earth. He will not let your foot slip-He who watches over you will not slumberIndeed, he who watches over IsraelWill neither slumber nor sleep The Lord watches over you-The Lord is your shade at your right hand;The sun will not harm you by day, nor the moon by night. The Lord will keep you from all harm- He will watch over your life The Lord will watch over your coming and goingBoth...

I will persevere, and win the race!
2007-07-17 18:56:00
James 1: 12 Blessed is the man who perseveres under trial, because when he has stood the test, he will receive the crown of life that God has promised to those who love him.After many days of struggling with my decision to return to work for a short season to finish out my books, I came to this day, the day that I leave my old job for good.I didn't think that the decision would be as hard as it has been, because I know that I know that I know that Real Estate is the direction that God has led me to, the path I'm to now follow, the road he has chosen for me. I have been struggling with this decision, because I have allowed the enemy to come and plant subtle doubt seeds about my decision, and I started playing the "what if?" game in my head.         ;      &nbs p;      &nb sp;      &n bsp;      & nbsp;   &...

Delay Is Not Rejection
2007-06-20 21:35:00
I recieved this wonderful email and wanted to pass it along. I hope it blesses you as much as it has me!Although Jesus loved Martha, Mary, and Lazarus, he stayed where he was for the next two days and did not go to them. Finally, after two days, he said to his disciples, "Let's go to Judea again."  John 11:5-7 NLT God often delays His response out of love, as He works all things together for good.  Jeanne Zornes Waiting with hopeMary and Martha had sent their friend Jesus a message about the critical condition of their brother, Lazarus, and their urgent need for his help: "Lord, the one you love is very sick" (John 11:3). But instead of rushing off to Bethany, Jesus stayed where he was for two days before responding to Mary and Martha's plea. When he did arrive, he raised Lazarus from the dead in a magnificent display of his power.Just as Mary and Martha struggled when Jesus answered their prayers for Lazarus in a time and way different from wha...
