So each day I learn more about what is important. Sometimes I think having a new car, a big house, lots of money and someone to clean, cook, drive and fix my hair would be the ultimate of what is important. But then something happens that makes you sit back and take a real close look at what you have and you start to take inventory.
On one blog a young lady passed away from an illness, another is in a wheelchair from a diving accident, someone else trying to adopt a baby is now sitting by his bedside as he fights for life, a baby is scheduled for surgery, a young lady was killed while driving home after a big tree limb crushed her side of the car. A bridge collapsed and a young pregnate mother and her 2 year old are missing, a mine collapsed with 4 coal miners. What do you say when so much is going on around you.
Trying to find the important things and keeping our perspective. Kim has been having a whooshing sound in her head. She finally went to see the doctor it seems it can be a serious condition that could require surgery and is frightening to say the least. You see I would trade everything I own and anything I gain to not have that be so. And so we pray and wait for the results of her MRI and then the ultra sound of her arteries in her neck. As I thought of all the things that could be and hoped would not be I could only think of Sam and his faith. He will get a boo boo and may cry but the next time I see him he will point to the area and say "see Mop" Jesus fixed my boo boo" I may not tell this right but Joshua got hurt and Sam quickly said" See Joshua Jesus will fix it" and held his finger up and said "He is doing it now"
Children see the elementary of everything and the simplicity. They don't complicate it with how others might think if we express our faith. They don't try to analyze the situation and try to downplay the need to ask God to heal. They just believe. So I am going to take Sam's lead and just believe and have faith that God being the great physician will analyze the results of the test review the situation and will offer the outcome that is part of His plan.
But if you want to pray, it would definitely be appreciated.

I want to and I am praying. How simple is the faith of a mustard seed, Jesus spoke of, and said if we have faith as a grain of mustard seed, It would be done. or we should have child like faith. But I haven't always had that faith but we keep trying to exercise our faith and believe that God will see us through. I too am amazed at Samuel's faith.One night while he was staying allnight here, I always pray a good night prayer and he said waite Grandma, I have a prayer request, Pray that Jesus will heal Grandma Mop, and so we prayed. He truley Loves Jesus. Love Mom
I too will be praying for Kim, she is like a daughter to me and I know that God will touch her. She has come so far in the past few years and I know God isn't finished with her yet. She is just getting started! She puts me to shame in all that she does for God!
What a girl!! She inspires me to do more and her light is definitely shinning bright at the First Church of the Nazarene!!
Love and Prayers,
Marsha
