Life abundantly?

Today, I sit here in a class that did not show again.  By now, I would be a bit ticked but since this isn't a student's fault, I get paid for it either way, it isn't a big deal. Besides just a few more weeks and this crew will be retired.  🎧🖳💻 Don't get me wrong, I will miss them.  They have kept me bright, thinking, and busy.  They, themselves, are busy in their lives.  😊😀 I was just reading about praying while waiting for the student to show.  It talked about the Jesus Prayer.  I thought ok, I know the Lord's Prayer and the Apostles Creed, but I don't know this one.   "Lord Jesus, Son of God, Have Mercy on Me!" Then, it talks about breathing and being intentional about praying and breathing.   The best I could think of or remember was/is breathing in and out Yahweh. Breathe in Yah Breathe out Weh Slow down your breaths; don't rush this  In- Yah Out- Weh As you breathe this way, your breaths slow down, your mind clears, a...

We waded in the UNTILS for long enough!

 The UNTILS can be murky water or a time of refreshing.  They can try to pull you under or they can give you hope.  The UNTILS can be a chance to see things clearer than you could before but only through patience.   Now patience is not easily obtained because you have to go through trials and tribulations to get to the side of patience.  "Patience is the  ability to wait for a long time without becoming annoyed or upset . It is also the  ability to remain calm and not become annoyed when dealing with problems or with difficult people . Patience is a personality trait and an attribute or ability (websterdictionary) So, our UNTILS are almost over and what have we learned?  SO much!  What will we do?  We have a plan to take off through some amazing areas and see some amazing things.  We are so excited to travel again.  We will see family, friends, and some new areas.  We can not wait to see Orcas in Washington.

Waiting/Wading in the UNTILS until .... part 2.

Hello, Welcome back.... So, in the last post about the UNTILS, we left with the scriptures in our hands and hopefully in your heart as well.  But I felt that there is more to our story than just the scripture.  I know, for me, there is more to this story.   I have always been a planner, I guess one could say wading in the UNTILS.   I love planning but what I have realized over the course of this past year is that wading in the UNTILS doesn't really allow GOD free Reign in our lives.  "Man plans his ways but the LORD directs their steps and makes them sure."   We know when we get ahead of God, He can make us flip on a dime.  He has and sometimes we have had to eat the change.  As RVers, our years and seasons begin to blend together.  Maybe for you too.  We have been living the RV life twice.  Once for about 2 years.  In the first years, Steve was deeply in debt, most would see NO WAY OUT!  But we got out of i...

C.A.M.P. Saints No Walls Tutoring Your child's education is of the utmost importance and your involvement in it is as well.  I want to help your child succeed in their learning journey.  How can you help your child?   Get involved.   Read to your child.  Get help when needed That is where I come in.

Waymaker, life changer, Holy GOD and Cancer

  It wasn't what we planned, no one ever plans for a diagnosis that changes their life.   No one ever wants to hear the C word, no one, not one person I know has ever enjoyed the benefits of that word.  Anyone you know of?   It changes your perspective, your outlook, your soul.  You begin to really search for the meanings your life gives to yourself and to others.  You look at where you are in your life and where you want to go.  You start to assess the situation around you. You begin to wonder what in the world is going on.  How are we going to afford this, this will break the bank, even WITH insurance! Once you hit that, you start looking at the right now, the stuff that you HAVE to deal with, the stuff that warrants your attention even though it is a hurry up and then wait, hurry up, and then wait.  This is where the last blog came from.  Wading/Waiting in the UNTILS.  You see, our plan was to visit family in one state ...

Waiting/Wading in The UNTILS

  What does that mean?  Waiting OR Wade in the Untils !    We all wait OR WADE for or in the UNTILS  a few times in our lives.  We wait until we get married, or our children start school, or until  our debts are paid off, or until our kids graduate, or until this or until that.  UNTIL death do us APART- our wedding vows.  The Meaning of UNTIL is... until ŭn-tĭl′ - a  preposition Up to the time of. Before (a specified time). Unto; to. We ALL wait for the UNTILS!   What is your UNTIL?  Our UNTIL is ever-changing, much like everyone else's.   Sometimes we even tell our loved ones that UNTIL you change, this won't happen!   But friends, if you want change you have to be the change first.   Our UNTILS were hard as many of yours may be too!   Wait until the cancer treatment is over, wait until we get to where we can settle down.  Wait until we know the schedule to add any more to it....

Look OUT Life!

  What a wild ride this summer has brought us.  We left Waco at the end of March for Nebraska.  It was supposed to be a 3-day trip, it was an overnight trip.   Our dog Peter had lymphoma for about 8 months and while we had him checked out in Nacogdoches, TX, we knew his time was coming to an end.  During the last two vet visits, he sat on our laps, we talked about it briefly putting him down, but just couldn't do that.  He would sit in the dark bedroom and look through the darkness and you could see his nose and his white fur, and we knew it was almost time.  We got the truck hooked up to the motorhome, came back in, and Peter jumped off his seat and tried to get back up but was stuck, he simply froze and could not move.  I picked him up and put him back on his seat, he laid down and took his final breaths and that was it.  He passed to Heaven.  I know he is in heaven because I do.   How can you not love this face?  ...
