New Year's Eve 2011

It's 11:15, New Year's Eve. Nothing much going on except a mind full of ideas, longings, a few regrets....just "stuff." Coldplay is singing on TV. Hubby has gone to bed. The Princess is doing her late night thing in the living room. Daisy and Darsy are hungover from catnip and sleeping it off. In less than 40 minutes 2012 will no longer be a mystery and 2011 will be history. God, there's a lot of work that needs to be done in me. Can You handle it? That's a stupid question but one I can't help but ask. I think I'm ready to hear and see Your answer. So, here goes nothing...and here goes everything.

Did you see the NFL commentators after the game?? Do you believe Tebow has what it takes to win another game next week? And their response?? Bowing their heads as if in prayer. Was this meant to put down Tebow...again....or are they beginning to eat their words...again?  For most of the season, Tim Tebow has been ridiculed, put down, questioned, and scoffed because of his faith on and off the football field.  So my question is...Why?      Why so much coverage about Tebow's faith in Christ? Why not share some "love" with other players who share their beliefs? What about the Rastafarian's (those with the long dred locks)? Why not pick on them about their f...
You just thought you knew everything there is to know about me, huh? Let's see....I am a teacher....check....huge Tennessee fan...check....hate raisins...check....a Christian...check...loves music...check...former hitch hiker....check..no wait...what? Ah, so you DON'T know everything about me! Okay, let's start with the latter... 10. I went to Europe the first time as a junior at Lenoir-Rhyne. I was with a family from LR, and then we also traveled with two guys from New York and a girl from Canada. Most of the group went to ski. Me...I tried skiing for 30 minutes and almost did not live to tell about it. So I went sightseeing, and how do you sight see in Europe? Hitch hike!! It was totally safe, and I was always with someone in the group, usually. And I decided it was best not to share this news with my parents until AFTER I returned from Europe! 9. I have a hard time telling my left from my right. I have to stop and think about it almost every time. Ask my husband and ...

Are you in need?

Tomorrow morning during our time of Praise and Worship, we are singing a song that just gets me everytime. This song reminds me that in my time of need, no matter what the situation, I ALWAYS have someone to rescue me! Tomorrow, 9am, First Baptist Icard...."Jesus Saves!"
