I have not been able to get online for the past week, which really was the pits because I enjoy posting on this blog, I hope all who are reading this had a wonderful Thanksgiving. Now it is officially the Christmas season!! I love it! I am so excited about what God is doing in the lives of my dear sisters and our families. I would like to ask a thought provoking question...When the "storms" of life are raging do you ask "Why God Why?" or do you ask "What is the lesson you have for me to learn?" I have been guilty of asking God, WHY? I never really got a clear answer! (go figure!) But when, in the very midst of the storm I asked God about the lesson HE had for me to learn, something changed...oh the storm didn't suddenly stop and the sun started to shine, No, in fact I think it was more like someone wrapped me in a good rain coat, gave me rain boots and an umbrella and NEVER once have I been lost in the storm. No one said being a follower of Christ was going to be easy, we all know that...right? But God has his plan and we simply have to TRUST. Remember our ways are not HIS ways and our thoughts are not HIS thoughts. No Matter what "storm" is raging around you God is in control.
I hope to see you on Saturday morning for our Christmas Tea of Friendship, 10am to 12pm. see you there

HE TURNS OUR MOURNING INTO DANCING TURNS OUR SORROW INTO JOY A SONG OF PRAISE INSTEAD OF SADNESS AND FOR OUR GRIEF THE OIL OF JOY GOD DOES EXCEEDINGLY ABUNDANTLY ABOVE ALL WE COULD ASK THINK HOPE OR IMAGINE HE ALWAYS REMAINS FAITHFUL IN EVERY CIRCUMSTANCE ALL WE HAVE TO DO IS TRUST HIM AND LOOK TO THE SOLUTION. KEEP OUR EYES FIXED ON THE AUTHOR FINISHER OF OUR FAITH . AND HE WILL TAKE CARE OF THE REST. WHAT AN AWESOME FAITHFUL FATHER WE SERVE {REALLY} WHERE WOULD WE BE WITHOUT HIM. LOVE PRISCILLA
Aloha from Hawaii! Your words, Kathy, came at a most appropriate time for me. We had just had a powerful wind and rain storm in the middle of night here in Hilo, Hawaii. I prayed and had His peace throughout the storm - slept like a baby! GOD IS EVERYWHERE - WE CANNOT ESCAPE HIS LOVE & PROTECTION. See y'all in mid-December. Hugs - Bonnie Webb
