You know, I've spoken about the wonderful people from Thomas Drug Store many times. These wonderful people just keep surprising me. Wednesday morning I sent Willard to mail a package for me, but before mailing it he was to pick up a few items from the drugstore to put in the package. The package was for my niece Angela who is pregnant with a precious little boy that she has given the name Jason. Before I go on any further I would like to say how wonderful it is that she has named him. When she talks about that precious gift that is within her she calls him by name. Isn’t that really special?


Well anyway back to Willard. I called the drugstore and spoke to Diane and she offered to help pick out some items for Jason. When Willard came home he told me about the post office rules, and that the package had to be wrapped in brown wrapping paper. He said that not only did Diane do a wonderful job selecting baby items; she told him she would be glad to wrap the package and take it to the post office and mail it. This is way above what her job duties are. This my friends, comes from love. Love not just for me, But she's like that for all the customers that come into Thomas Drug Store. I do not know how on earth, Paige and Kathy,”” owners of the store”” happen to choose such wonderful people for employees. One would have to search far and wide to find such wonderful people. Paige and Kathy are also very kind, very loving people.

I love you all at Thomas Drug Store.

Thank you so much Diane, I love you.

Until next time, Willard and I both wish you health and happiness, God bless and God save.

I was looking at this picture of my sister in law Janice Moore, and missing her so very much. The picture, was taken at the beach, while my brother Danny and Janice, my sister Jean and her husband Johnny were vacationing. I don't know who took this picture, but as far as I'm concerned they should win some kind of award for capturing the ""face of cancer"". Looking at the picture closely, in her face you can see all the emotions one feels while having cancer.

One sees the sadness from not being able to do the things that others do. Please understand when this picture was taken, Janice had had cancer for some years. The chemo's and other treatments, and test upon test had sapped her strength. It must have took much of her strength just to sit in the chair and watched as others when about enjoying the trip.
You also see a defiance. A strength that comes from deep down within her, that says,(I'm not giving up).
There's also fear of the unknown eched in each wrinkle. But there's hope also there. There's faith, and there's a knowledge that God knows what He's doing. There's anger from the knowledge that you are leaving the people you love, the people that love you, the people that still need you. There are so many emotions that a cancer victim has that they never shown to anyone. Most times, we present a big smile and a happy attitude, but inside there are so many emotions going on. I think it's mainly sadness. In this I'm not saying self pity. It sadness of so many things. So many emotions that all could not be named. This picture of Janice says in all. To me, and maybe only to me it shows the unseen, untold story of life with cancer.
Janice always had a smile for everyone. She was always supportive and had such a happy attitude  "" in front "" of everyone. She did that because she loved us all so much. She didn't want pity. That's why this picture seemed so powerful to me. It was the other side of the coin. When she thought she was all alone, deep in thought, with all her true emotions showing on her face.
Janice I deeply miss you, but as a good friend said to me, you would not want to come back. I'll be seeing you soon, love you.
Until next time, Willard and I both wish you all health and happiness, God bless and God save.

Romans 2:1 Therefore thou art inexcusable, O man, whosoever thou art that judgest: for wherein thou judgest another, thou condemnest thyself; for thou that judgest doest the same things.
Romans 2:2 But we are sure that the judgment of God is according to truth against them which commit such things.
Romans 2:3 And thinkest thou this, O man, that judgest them which do such things, and doest the same, that thou shalt escape the judgment of God?

A few years ago the Lord put these verses in my heart. Anyone who knows me, knows that I use to be a very judgmental person. But the Lord spoke to me one day and said, have you not sinned also? Causing me to review my own past. When I really looked at my own sins according to how I felt about what others had done. Well, I was so very ashamed. And I'm not saying that I don't still have judgments about others, but when I do I make myself think about these verses.

I have certain people that come into my home and I know, just as sure as I breath they are going to find something to throw off on. I have come to realize, through a lot of prayer and forgiving that it's their way of making themselves feel better about themselves. These same people seem to go out of their way to do and say things to Willard and me to put us down in some way.

I once said to the Lord '' I put this in Your hands Lord. The Lord was quick to respond that it was not mine to place in His hands, that He had it all alone. So I prayed for forgiveness and said to Him. Lord I leave it in your hands. God has it. He knows before hand. And He will handle it in His own way and His own time.

It's these three verses in Romans that make me look back into my past and ask myself ''Have I done the same thing?'' My answer would have to be yes. Sometimes judgment means holding a grudge. So how can I as a Christian judge or hold grudges against a thing that I myself am guilty of. The answer is, if indeed I am a true Christian as I profess to be, I can't. God lead us all to His truth and not our own.

Non judgment....... pass it on.

Until next time, Willard and I wish you heath and happiness. God bless and God save.

A day of good times turned into death and agony. So many good people so brutally hurt by a monster.
A friend of Susan Sanders ..... Meredith smiling as she runs the race,,,before the tragedy.
 That smile,'' I suspect'' turned to sadness. 

 I think we need to reflect as we think about all the People that were killed and injured in Boston, that God had a reason for letting it happen. We don't know the whys but we do know..........
 Romans 8:28 And we know that all things work together for good for those who love God, who are called according to his purpose,
We must look to God for the comfort that only He can bring. I pray for understanding, although I know none of us will ever understand such utter evil. I pray God will heal this country of it's diseases, for this person or persons who did this awful thing is a disease and not a human being in my mind.
Don't get me wrong, I'm deeply hurt for the people that died and were injured in Boston. But every time I see it on the news, which seems like every hour on the hour. I think that the devil/devils who did this awful thing are laughing and patting his/her self on the back. The news media is giving whomever a good old time in self admiration. Who ever they are, I send this message. Evil, like you are few in number. you are a pitifully weak person. The Good people are many and strong. I pray that the people you hurt don't think of themselves as your victim. By refusing to give you that victory,  Then you end up the only victim, lost in your own insanity. However I do pray that God will cause you to really realize what you have done. Maybe you may even repent for your dark deeds. God have mercy on you soul.

Until next time, Willard and I wish you health and happiness, God bless and God save.

You never understand something until it happens to you.
I never really understood the pain of hunger, until I saw my children hungry. I went without so they would have something to eat. I now know how my mother must have felt while feeding me, and my siblings sugar sandwiches, because there was nothing else.


I never knew loneliness until I was left all-alone, nowhere to turn. And then I was able to see the tears flowing down the cheeks of those residents of the nursing home. Whose family had put them in there and hardly ever came to see them. One of which repeats daily that a family member is coming to see them, but the visit never happened. Or the lady that sits by the door every day, hoping to see a loved one. When I was well I use to try to ease that loneliness for a few minutes.

I never understood pain, real physical pain until I myself was in agony, pleading to God for help. I never had empathy for others with pain until I felt such pain.

I never understood betrayal until I was betrayed. The hurt envelops the body where nothing but numbness is felt. There’s no day, no night, only emptiness. And depression is something that has to be dug out of as if a grave black and cold. I have compassion for others whom are in that situation.

I never really understood love. Real love, until Jesus. No explanation needed……………

God has given me hunger so that I would feed the hungry. He has allowed loneliness for me so I would be a friend to the lonely. God gave me pain so that I would understand how others were hurting, and to better understand the pain Jesus Christ felt on that dark day of His death. God allowed me to be betrayed so I could see how hurtful it is. How very devastating it is for others. And how very forgiving Jesus is to us all.

Until next time Willard and I wish you heath, happiness and love. God bless and God save.

For all the people young and old, who have not heard the old, old story of Jesus and His love.


Good Friday is the Friday within the Easter holiday, and is a time of fasting and penance, commemorating the suffering, crucifixion, and death of the Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.. For Christians, this holy day commemorates not just a historical event, but the sacrificial death of Christ, the only begotten Son of our Heavenly Father, which along with the resurrection, comprises the heart of the Christian faith.

How Jesus suffered for us on that day. Human tongues cannot describe the agony He went through. Only by the mercy and grace of God are we called His children. Adopted into the family by the blood that Jesus Christ shed for us so many years ago.

Holy Saturday commemorates the day that Jesus Christ lay in the tomb after his death. It is the day after Good Friday and the day before Easter Sunday. It is also known as Easter Eve, Easter Even, Black Saturday, or the Saturday before Easter. Jesus’ body lay in the tomb.

Easter Sunday is the resurrection. Mt 28:5 And the angel answered and said unto the women, Fear not ye: for I know that ye seek Jesus, which was crucified. Mt 28:6 He is not here: for he is risen, as he said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay.

It’s the day that Jesus stomped on the head on the serpent, that old demon the devil.

It’s the day that Jesus , In His owe words……..Re 1:18 I am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death.

And because He lives, we have eternal life through Him, And only through Him.
John 3:16
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
Until next time Willard and I wish you health and happiness. God bless and God save.

If you share this post, God will reward you. Huh? Here I thought we were in the 21st century. Now I know that the Word of God is just as real today as it was when it was first written. But I have never read anything in the Bible stating that “ without God’s promise” you will be blessed for doing anything. There are so-called evangelists who are racking in millions of dollars each year because they talk promises. Promises, that doesn’t come from the word of God nor God. You can’t get remission from sin by donating money. Nor riches, nor happiness. God does say cast your bread upon the water. That means to me to give freely for the glory of God. But not cast your pearls before swine as some are doing, hoping to get a blessing from God. If you want a blessing…..go to God. I’m not promising He will give you your request. But I do promise that He loves you and will do what’s best for you in His on eyes. Many times God says NO ! Because He knows the future and He has a plan for each of us. We would do well to trust in that plan and in Him.


I worry so much about people who believe such people and or things. We, being so very close to the end times and the coming of Christ our Lord. It is also time for the antichrist to appear. These same people that are being fooled by such ploys from these not so Godly evangelists, will be quickly fooled by the antichrist. It breaks my heart knowing that.

Little children, it is the last time: and as ye have heard that antichrist shall come, even now are there many antichrists; whereby we know that it is the last time.

We are not in the middle ages, that we should believe in folklore.

But as far as superstition, we are still backward people; some still unable to walk under a latter because of fear that something terrible will happen. Still keeping four-leaf clovers, rabbit’s feet and such, for good luck. So if you’re wondering why I never pass on those post on FB promising some kind of blessing if I do such things. This is why.

Until next time, Willard and I wish you health and happiness. May God bless and may God save.
