Time is flying.. Hard to believe that October is almost over.. Oh my.. reminds me of something my Grandma.."Ella Mae Clark" used to tell me when I was much, much younger.. She said, "IT MAY SEEM LIKE TIME GOES SLOW TO YOU NOW WHEN YOU ARE WAITING ON SOMETHING SPECIAL TO HAPPEN, BUT JUST WAIT UNTIL YOU GET MY AGE, YOU WILL REALIZE THAT TIME NEVER STANDS STILL, AND MOVES QUICKER AND QUICKER BY AS YOU HAVE MORE AND MORE BIRTHDAYS" She was sooo right, and 99.9% of the time was RIGHT.. and we always thought she was 100% right! And in our eyes, she was!
OKAY, HERE I GO WITH MY SECOND STORY.. THEN ABIGAIL AND I (IN FUN) DID ONE TOGETHER.. I'LL SAY WHICH ONE IT IS AND POST IT SOON.. ANYWAY, HOPE THIS IS A LITTLE DIFFERENT THAN YOU EXPECT, IN A REALLY GOOD WAY.. "GOD BLESS"I did this one, and I will post the other one tomorrow!

This one is about a corn field maze.. Wow! a corn maze! Truthfully I've never walked through one or even been close to one in my life. Cornfields yes, but NOT cut into a maze! But, the concept is just awesome! Thinking about all the "what-ifs", the turns and twist and even the dead ends makes me feel just how much its like life itself, so very unpredictable.
The amazing part is that God knows every inch of our path ahead of us and all that's behind us, every second of our whole lives, because HE knows the beginning and the end of everything and everyone. But back now to this corn field maze... My mind wants to think of it as God's Maze of Precious Gifts from Him for you and I. Yes, they would be different for each of us because beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and we all enjoy different things. So, here we go!.... I hope you find something about this that you like???

THE MAZE OF PRECIOUS GIFTS! As I pass through the entrance of this corn field maze, I met Jesus in my prayers, and after we share much excitement on my part, He told me "my child, I have chose this maze of my nature gifts for you to enjoy" then He added, "I will be with you every step of the way, I want to see your pleasure" I replied, "thank You Father, for all You do, I love You too, thank You for always being with me" Anticipation and excitement filled my heart and mind as I 
carefully walked up the first passage way. As I walked I heard the cooing of a pair of doves. There nestled in the corn was a nest of beautiful doves, singing their songs of praise and thankfulness for life, and safety and for each other. Just before I reached them, I took the path off to the right so I would not disturb the doves.
I walked a good little distance and then just ahead I saw a gentle doe with her fawn standing by her side, it was drinking and the mother was cleaning her very young baby. How precious the site. Lord, only You could have made such awesome beauty.. and You did this for even me! Thank You! With another turn and a short distance, I heard a rustling of the leaves
off to the left. As I approach I see a pair of little brown bunnies playing. Then with a warning THUMP of their mothers foot upon the ground, they hopped into the safety of a hollow log, and she went in right behind them. All three sat and watched as I slowly walked by. A short ways later and completely to my amazement stood a butterfly bush in full bloom. Oh what a site, and the
butterfly that was sitting there was a true sight to behold. As I turn to walk away there was also a trumpet vine that
had a humming bird there eating.. BEAUTIFUL! The next path led me to a small opening in the maze. What beauty I saw, a family of beautiful swans standing by the water. What an awesome thing to see.. As I looked out over the meadow near the pond through the little window like opening
, I saw a young mare with her newborn foal nestled in her arms. A sight like I hadn't even imagined before. You could just see the love she had for her newborn. How wonderful, who would have even thought anything like this
happens? Absolutely precious and priceless. I am sure it's a sight I'll never see here on earth again.. unless as another special gift from God. Thankfully I have been so blessed! I turned around after watching a long while. This time I walked as they used to say "a good far ways", or my Grandma would have said "a good fer piece", before I came upon the last opening I saw. AS I walked through the opening... OH HOW WONDERFUL, HOW BLESSED THIS DAY HAS BEEN, THERE BEFORE ME AT THIS POINT STOOD MY
I just want to remind you today and every day that you all are loved, and that you and yours are in our prayers, and that we are praying for each of you spiritually, physically, emotionally, mentally, and financially.. And that HE will pour His abundant grace and love down all around each of you and bless you with His inner peace and comfort. Praying for those that are sick or hurting. Praying for those that have cancer, eb, and any and all other diseases, God bless, heal and comfort please and thank You. Praying for safety for Chris and for Norman (as well as everyone else) traveling to and from work daily.. Praying for my awesomely sweet nephew that just lost his dad.. (wow, a sure reminder that life is just a vapor) BIG HUGS TO You... and to all of his other family members and friends.. Praying for my co-worker that just lost her nephew... hugs to each of you and our sympathy, love and prayers! Praying for everyone in search of a job, that God will grant you a decent 40 hr a week job with benefits.. And today and always giving Him the praise, honor, and glory in all things in Jesus Holy name, amen.
