Dear Dottie ... I am so blessed to have you in my life. .... We didn't get the devotionals in the mail in time for Jan. 1 ... I will be emailing them until every one gets theirs .... Let me know when you get yours and I'll take you off the email list. Every year I pray that God will give me a word for the new year. The word for 2011 is "Fearless". Courage does not panic: it prays. Courage does not bemoan: it believes. Courage does not languish: it listens. It listens to the voice of God calling. HAPPY NEW YEAR Mary Alice

Feeling fairly well today. This quote is spurring me on to catch up on all the tags I have waiting. Thanks for your patience and understanding of my health issues..
Thinking about the power of words today and came across this poem:
A careless word may kindle strife; A cruel word may wreck a life. A bitter word may hate instill; A brutal word may smite and kill. A gracious word may smooth the way; A joyous word may light the day. A timely word may lessen stress; A loving word may heal and bless. -Author Unknown
This makes me think about what my words are doing everyday to the people around me. Are they hurting or healing? Wrecking or smoothing
Thanks so much for stopping by. Glad you seem to be getting everything in order with your PC! What a pain, considering you just did it a month or two ago! Can't wait for your mail to be up and running again, have so much to share with you! : o ) Have a great day.
