FURTHER DOWN THE PATH..

ABIGAIL AND I WERE TALKING THE OTHER DAY ABOUT MANY THINGS, (AS USUAL) .. WHEN THE SUBJECT OF THE BIBLE CAME US, (WHICH IT OFTEN DOES) THEN ON TO  SCRIPTURES THAT ARE SURPRISING .. I THOUGHT JUST A MINUTE AND TOLD HER OF A VERY EXCITING VERSE ... OR TO ME IT IS.. IT GOES LIKE THIS.. 2 KINGS 13- 20-21 THEN ELISHA DIED, AND THEY BURIED HIM. AND THE RAIDING BANDS FROM MOAB INVADED THE LAND IN THE SPRING OF THE YEAR. (21) SO IT WAS, AS THEY WERE BURYING A MAN, THAT SUDDENLY THEY SPIED A BAND OF RAIDERS: AND THEY PUT THE MAN IN THE TOMB OF ELISHA: AND WHEN THE MAN WES LET DOWN AND TOUCHED THE BONES OF ELISHA, HE REVIVED AND STOOD ON HIS FEET. .... I BET THE OTHERS WERE TOTALLY SURPRISED, AND IT'S EXCITING TOO WHEN YOU THINK ABOUT IT.. DON'T YOU THINK SO? SHOWS HOW MUCH POWER GOD GAVE ONE OF HIS BELOVED..  SHE WAS SO EXCITED ABOUT IT.. WE WERE IN THE CAR AT THE TIME, AND JUST FORGOT IT WHEN WE GOT HOME, BUT THEN SHE REMEMBERED IT AND TOLD ME SO,  I LOOKED IT UP AND SENT IT TO HER (SINCE WE WEREN'T AT HOME AT THE TIME)

ALL THE REST OF THE FAMILY HAD PLANS TODAY, AND SO DID WE.. YES, WE WERE INVITED TO GO WITH THEM, BUT WE HAD SOME THINGS WE NEEDED TO DO.. FIRST WE WENT TO TRACTOR SUPPLY.. DIDN'T BUY ALL THAT WE PLANNED TO (because of the cost) BUT STILL GOT SOME GOOD IDEAS, AND BOUGHT A FEW THINGS.  THEN WE WENT TO LOWES.. AND GOT SUPPLIES TO FINISH OFF A FEW PROJECTS WE HAD PLANNED.. #1 BEING TO PUT IN A LARGER ELECTRIC BOX AND #2. WAS THAT WE GOT THE SUPPLIES TO PUT IN OUR SHOWER FINALLY AND REMODEL THE BATHROOM.. WE HAD A SMALL PORTION OF IT, BUT NOW I THINK WE GOT IT ALL RIGHT DOWN TO THE PAINT, CURTAINS, AND RUGS.. NOW JUST TO GET IT DONE! #3 WAS THAT WE GOT A MINI BLIND FOR OUR FRONT DOOR.. IT WILL ADD SOME PRIVACY TO THE KIDS ROOM WHEN THEIR DOOR IS OPEN, AND WILL BLOCK OUT SOME SUNLIGHT.. EVEN THOUGH IT'S BEAUTIFUL ... BUT HOT! THESE THINGS HAVE BEEN IN OUR PLANS FOR AWHILE, JUST HADN'T GOT DONE BECAUSE OF THE WAY THEY KEPT HIM WORKING AND ALL THE "ON CALL" TRIPS HE HAD TO MAKE FOR WORK! SO NOW FINALLY, WELL, HOPEFULLY THEY WILL GET DONE! AND WE WILL BE EXTRA GRATEFUL.. ESPECIALLY TO HAVE THE SHOWER IN AND BATHROOM COMPLETE!
THANK YOU GOD, AND PLEASE HELP US TO GET THEM ALL DONE, QUICKLY AND SAFELY AND WE GIVE YOU ALL THE THANKS, PRAISE, HONOR AND GLORY IN JESUS NAME.

ANOTHER PATH WE TROD TODAY ...  SINCE OUR TIME WAS OUR OWN TODAY (thanks God for each day, life is such a blessing, and sharing it with family and a mate is wonderful).. NORMAN DECIDED TO TAKE THE COUNTRY ROUTE BACK HOME FROM LEXINGTON. SO WE WENT ON THE WINDING COUNTRY ROADS.. (NO, THEY DIDN'T LOOK LIKE THIS ONE, THANKFULLY).. BUT ISN'T IT PRETTY? LOVE THAT DEER STANDING THERE LOOKING LIKE "WHO IS THAT COMING UP IN HERE?"  IT WAS A NICE RIDE.. STILL THERE ARE SO MANY TREES DOWN HERE AND THERE (none still in the roads thankfully).. BUT, SOME WERE BROKEN, SOME UPROOTED, SOME JUST TWISTED AND BROKEN OFF LIKE A PIECE OF DRY SPAGHETTI.. BOY THAT WAS QUITE A STORM.. WE ARE SOOO GRATEFUL THAT THE WORSE WE HAD WAS ONE TREE BROKEN DOWN.. IT ACTUALLY HIT ANOTHER TREE ON IT'S WAY DOWN AND BROKE AGAIN.. THEN LANDED ONE SECTION GOING ONE WAY AND THE OTHER SECTION GOING THE OTHER WAY OVER HALF OF OUR DRIVE WAY AND ON OUR POND.. BUT IT DIDN'T EVEN BREAK THE POND.. WE WERE SO GRATEFUL.. IT COULD HAVE BEEN MUCH WORSE.. I PRAY THAT WE DON'T SEE ANOTHER STORM LIKE THAT! IT WAS NASTY!! AND WE  THANK YOU GOD FOR TAKING CARE OF US AND OUR HUMBLE LITTLE ABODE.. WE DEEPLY APPRECIATE YOU AND ALL YOU DO!
               =========================================================
 YOU NEVER KNOW WHO WE WILL SHARE OUR PATH WITH.. JESUS IS ALWAYS THERE WITH US, AND HE LOVES US SPENDING QUALITY TIME WITH US, AND TALKING WITH US.. WE ARE HIS CHILDREN, AND HE HAS PLANS FOR OUR LIVES..
Deuteronomy 30:9 Then the LORD your God will make you most prosperous in all the work of your hands and in the fruit of your womb, the young of your livestock and the crops of your land. The LORD will again delight in you and make you prosperous, just as he delighted in your ancestors,
