NEVER ALONE...

                                                      GOD IS ALWAYS NEAR

One thing can always cheer me,When I'm feeling sad and low;
          When I tire of daily trials, That I have to undergo;
When those who should seem closest, Seem like people I don't even know,
         One thing can always cheer me, I know that God is near me.
           One thing can always cheer me When I don't understand;
           How pain and sadness in our lives, Can get so out of hand;
   When the best of human efforts, Doesn't meet the days demands,
        One thing can always cheer me, I know that God is near me.
     One thing can always cheer me, More than anything I've known;
           And show me I will never Have to struggle on my own.
For no matter what might ever happen, I know I will never be alone,
     The thing that always cheers me Is just knowing God is near me.

ABIGAIL SPENT THE NIGHT AGAIN LAST NIGHT.. SO THIS MORNING WHEN I LEFT FOR WORK, I RAN HER HOME.. SHE REALLY SURPRISED ME ON OUR WAY HOME.. BUT I PROMISED I WOULDN'T TELL "HOW SHE WAS DRESSED".. SHE SAID, "I'M JUST GOING HOME" now isn't that cute? SOMETIMES THEY CAN REALLY SURPRISE YOU WITH THE SIMPLE LITTLE THINGS THAT THEY DO OR DON'T DO.. NO WONDER "JESUS LOVES THE LITTLE CHILDREN"

NORMAN WENT TO WORK THIS MORNING.. HE WAS FEELING BAD LAST NIGHT (and still had to work over for 2 hours 15 minutes) I DON'T KNOW IF HE'S GETTING A COLD? OR WORSE? TODAY HE CAME HOME REALLY CONGESTED (*.*) AND RUNNING A FEVER. HE CALLED ME AT WORK AND SAID HE WAS FEELING BAD AND GOING HOME. I TRIED TO GET HIM IN TO HIS DOCTORS TODAY, BUT NO ONE WAS THERE? I DONT' KNOW IF HE'S ON VACATION OR WHAT?? I WILL TRY AGAIN TOMORROW TO GET HIM IN THERE. HE HAS BEEN TAKING SOME COUGH SYRUP THAT HAD BEEN PRESCRIBED FOR HIM (we are afraid to give him medicine without the doctors approval, after his near death experience).. KEEP HIM IN YOUR PRAYERS PLEASE.. WITH HIM, THINGS CAN GO FROM "NOT SO BAD, TO REALLY BAD" IN JUST A SHORT WHILE!
