Memories.....

This past week I lost a very loving friend named Ruth. She was the sweetest person you could ever talk to. She added me as a friend on facebook and we began to talk and become friends. I think God had a hand in that!! Everyday in my inbox was an email of encouraging words and advice. She enjoyed helping people. I have caught myself already looking for emails that I know are not there. I miss her so much! It's hard to become friends with someone and then lose them. She told me in an email that when God gives you a gift- cherish it because that is the greatest gift you can ever get. I cherish her words and will always remember our conversations. She also told me to always tell the people you love that you love them because one day you won't be able to. Ruth was a wonderful friend and I know that she is in heaven looking down. Ruth, you will always be in my heart and thank you for all your wise words! Thank you for all your help and all the faith you had! Lord, I thank you for putting her in my life! Rest in peace Ruth aka GrannyB! I love you dear friend!!

In memory of Ruth Brasington
Angels in the room

She’s close to death , but she is not afraid
Angels waiting for the order, to carry her away
They’re gathered around her bed side
She’s the only one who sees
She will draw her final breath , and away with them she’ll leave


Angels in the room , she’s run her final race
They come to carry her to heaven
there to see her savior’s face
Angels in the room, to take her to a great reward
No need for sadness or gloom, there are angels in the room

He’s not long for this world, there’s a better one to come
He’s think’in about that great reunion , with the father and the son
His family by his bedside, he says children can’t you see
Angels standing all around us, it’s time for me to leave

Angels in the room, he’s run his final race
They come to carry him to heaven
There to see his savior’s face
Angels in the room, to take him to his great reward
No need for sadness or gloom, there are angels in the room

When it comes a time for leaven
And you see the fights are long
You won’t have to worry friend
You won’t be alone

Angels in the room, when you run your final race
They will carry you to heaven
There to see your savior’s face
Ooh.. Angels in the room, to take you to your great reward
No need for sadness or gloom, they’ll be angels in the room
No need for sadness or gloom, there are angels in the room

Walk this way....

He who walks with the wise grows wise, but the companion of fools suffer harm ~ Proverbs 13:20.


Never underestimate the power of bad influence. Influence can be invisible but powerful. It can grab hold, take you under and drown you in misery. When God lights the path; the devil will do his best to put stumbling blocks along the way to trip you up. He will make his bad look more enticing than the good of God. The devil is very tricky and can cause you to be blind that is when we fall into the trap. We have to be careful of who and what we associate with. At first, it may look good and we think " Once won't hurt" Once can be the too many. Be careful with the company you keep. I always love to sit and talk with older people. They are wise and they have experience and not to mention give some good advice! I have listened to advice of younger people and I have found myself in a world of mess and sometimes I feel more doubtful than I did. We should listen to the wise because a lot of them have traveled the road we are on now!

Where will you go child?

My sheep listen to my voice; I know them, and they follow me. ~John 10:27





Isn't it so wonderful to know when we leave this earth we have a beautiful eternal home to go to! I sometimes sit and think how it is going to feel when God looks at me and says "Well done, Jennifer!" There is not a day that goes by that I do not thank God for all the things He has done for me and I never regret a moment that I follow Him. My life with Jesus Christ has brought on a new perspective on things. I look at things a lot differently. I forgive easier than I did. I love deeper. I cherish and thank God for every moment that I am alive! Even though my heart gets broken sometimes and some days end with rain I trust God and know He will take care of me. No matter how bad the world gets...I will still follow Jesus Christ!

All of Creation

I am who I am....

But by the grace of God I am what I am ~ 1 Corinthians 15:10


Mirror, Mirror, on the wall......Look into a mirror and say I am unique..I am rare..I am a child of God and I am what I am because of His grace! Being a Christian isn't an easy thing to be. So many worldly pressures in our face everyday. Even, at 32 years old, I still have worldly pressures knocking at my door. The world wants us to be something other than what God wants us to be. The world expects so much out of us but if you really look at it; it's things that will wear us down and sometimes can cause destruction. We can get caught up into materialistic things and as we dig deeper to find satisfaction it eats away at us and before we know we are so distant from God that we don't put Him first anymore. If we read God's words daily and pray daily and build a strong bond with Him the world cannot touch us. God wants us to be ourselves; He wants you to be legendary you! The cross is before us and the world is behind us. The world has nothing for us but God has a beautiful eternal life waiting for us...all you have to do is say Yes, Lord, Yes I open my heart, my soul, my mind to You, Lord!!!

Be careful what you throw away...

Be careful what you throw away it might be the best thing you ever had. When something is good you want to keep it; you don't want to set it aside or throw it away cause someone else might grab it up and you won't have it ever again.....God wants us to have the best and if He gives you the cream of the crop and you decide you don't want it then it's your loss. When you sit back and think you wish you had something...it may be too late..So cherish what you have.

Too good to be true...

Ever look at something and say "That is too good to be true." We all have! Sometimes it can be the case but when God sends it to you it's His will and it is His perfect will. Don't be afraid of a blessing God has sent you. When you pray for something and God answers your prayer- Embrace it and Praise God!!! When God places a blessing in your life cherish it and know it is a gift from God and it is good and it is true! With God all things are possible. God bless!

Let go and Let God

I posted this a while back and I thought about it and had to repost it again. We all need to realize that it is the Lord's battle and we need to give it all to Him. No matter what is going on in our lives He is in control and we need Him to help us through the thick and thin of life. God bless!
