Life Happens between the crisiss


Life Happens between the crisis I hear a very profound statement. And It really put me to thinking. You know I like to ponder things. Well this one has been rolling around in my brain for a while. And this morning I felt the need to share. As you all know I've had Lydia Grace on my mind strong all week. I have shoved her down your throat because I was terrified, that God might call that baby home. I truly believe in perfect healing and I believe that's when we stand in front of our wonderful Savior Jesus Christ. But I knew that would destroy her mama and daddy. So, I have prayed and prayed that God's will would be to heal her here on Earth. I use this as an example of a big event in our lives. The thought proving statement was " Life is what happens between the big events of our life". This is so true. The little things we do day to day are really the important ones. Talking to God every morning. Reading in my Bible every day. Listening to the Doves call outside my windows. They did this all day yesterday. Getting caught up on my crochet. Sending someone happy PIE day probably on the wrong day. Telling the carpet layers if they can't make my Seam any better, I will be happy with it. Cooking Mac and Cheese with Chelsea where we throw about a million calories of extra cheese, butter and milk in it. My sweet son cooking chicken on his smoker for Chelsea, me and L-Rod. Watching Chelsea sit on my couch and see that secret smile when her little man has turned a flip. Having all of RJ's fabric collected. The peace of the morning and a good cup of coffee. The fact that I was able to kinda vacuum half the living room yesterday, then my back died. Hearing Possum, the donkey Bray. Getting to enjoy watching Cater at his critter birthday party. Striving to bring smiles to everyone I come in contact with. That is how I want people to see God in me. I want them to see my joy. I love giving gifts. I will have to cut back on that for a while. Not getting upset because we're broke...lol...poor is in the eye of the beholder. I am poor in money. I am rich in love. I am ready for the next crisis, trouble, trial, horrendous catastrophe that may hit my life. But until that happens, I plan to live my life 1 second one minute 1 hour one day at a time. I plan to try Show Jesus in my actions and each of these minutes seconds hours Dey while I live my life. Sometimes it's hard. Sometimes we want to throw up our hands and scream. Even if it's a good day but we have to trust God and live our lives between the crisis God is with us then just to see is when the horrible things happened. And we should feel as close if not closer to him during those sweet peaceful times when my dads are coming when my donkey is praying Aubrey is giggling over helping me bathe bitsy and Grammys Big Tub. Carter is so excited about his Critter party that he lets the man put a snake around his neck. Kind of a trial for Grammy but he was pretty good with it. We don't need to just spend our days waiting on the next big horrible thing to happen because we live our lives between the big things the horrible things and that really touched my heart when I heard it I hope you think about it I hope you ponder it I hope you smile at somebody today that has no smile I hope you do something that would bring a little joy to someone's heart that doesn't have any or watch something like a bird or a mama carrying a baby this feeling it flip and see the Joy on her face or a little bitty girl running around and around and around in your living room or there's no furniture. Squealing and laughing and bringing Joy to Your Heart and let's not think about what the next catastrophe might be, because we know God will be there, he will hold our hand, he will take us in his hand, he will lift us up he will see us through whatever horrendous catastrophe that my hit our life. But until that happens, I plan to live my life one second, one minute, one hour, one day at a time. I plan to try show Jesus in my actions, daily actions, while I live my life. Sometimes it's hard. Sometimes we want to throw our hands up and hands scream. Even if it's a good day but we have to trust God and live our lives between each crisis. God is with us through everything. I know he see you when the horrible things happened, is it a test to grow your faith. Is it for someone who is watching your life, to see how you handle those crises? And that is when we should feel the closest to him. I feel close to him during the sweet peaceful time when my doves are coming, my donkey is braying, when Aubrey is giggling over helping me bathe Bitz in Grammys big tub. At Carter's birthday party. He was so excited about his critter party. He let the man put a snake around his neck. Kind of a trial for Grammy but he was pretty cool with it. We don't need to just spend our days waiting on the next big horrible thing to happen because we our lives between the big things the horrible things. That one statement really touched my heart when I heard it. I hope you think about it. I hope you ponder it in your heart. I hope you smile at somebody today that has no smile. I hope you do just one little something that would bring a little joy to someone's hard day. It doesn’t have to be anything big, just watch something like a bird fly land and start cooking. Or a pregnant mama that's baby that is turning flips and see the joy on her face. Or a little bitty girl running around
and around and around, your living room that has no furniture. Take the time to enjoy your time between the crisis. Because we know God will be there with us and he will take us by the hand, he will even pick us up in his Hand and hold us during the crisis. Enjoy your time between the trials, that's where we really live our lives. Enjoy some flowers. Love you.
