I’ve been working on a post for
a while, I always try to figure out what path to take with a post. I
always pray because above all I want my words to do nothing short of glorify
GOD. A great bible study in 2 Timothy and an awesome morning drive this
morning and jamming to Michael W. Smith provided inspiration.
So,
what has been happening in Jeremy World, including the crazy cat Mollie well we
added a Marley, an even more, extreme crazy cat. Jeremy has been
uneventful healthy, no sickness, no UTI and I’m so praising GOD for this.
We are gearing up for his graduation in May.
Life
did get crazy but hey that is how we roll. Mollie ended up getting a rare
fungal disease and she can’t tolerate the treatment we tried 2 different
times. Mollie will eventually pass away or I will have to make the
decision to put her to sleep and it’s heartbreaking. I thought well maybe
get another cat to make that transition easier for Jeremy, so I started a semi-
not sure search for calico cats and up popped 1. This cat’s markings are
total opposite of Mollie. I went to meet her, long story short filled out
all the paperwork, paid my fee and while I was there this other lady came in to
adopt her. I honestly to be truthful at that point felt any day Mollie
was going to pass away or I was going to have to put her to sleep, she was just
that bad. I brought the new cat home on January 31 and we named her
Marley. So, we currently have Mollie & Marley and yes, it’s
confusing but Jeremy can say Mar Mar and it’s been a good thing for him, he
laughs at her like he did Mollie. Marley is still a little scared, except
with me I am her best friend ever, but she is warming up to everyone else, make
good progress in a month and is starting to sleep & be around Jeremy
some. Marley is very energetic, funny, full of life, and very expressive
loud. Marley has long legs & body, and her paws are big so I’m
expecting she will be a good size cat. Marley seems very content with her
new home.
Then
“skunk Party 2020” yep early one morning getting ready for work, Jeremy getting
ready for school I hear a sound under my house and then a smell that will make
you gag. I walk into the living room and it was BAD. I had to hire
a company and they trapped 4 skunks that apparently had taken up resident, but
of course why wouldn’t they because they knocked my duct work loose, so they
had heat and a nice little pad. However, the duct work looked like a war
zone. The area is boarded up and duct work has been repaired,
I made
a commitment at the 1st of the year that I was going to attend a
women’s bible study on Tuesday nights @ Grace Community church, and it has been
a NEED in my life. We are studying through 2 Timothy. I enjoy
getting to know all the woman, church members and all my new friends. It
has all been so good, to keep my mind sharp for GOD, study the word, be in the
word, share the word.
This
morning a reflection on how much I don’t understand about life, my life, why
life turned out like it did. I’m graciously grateful that GOD is
Sovereign over us and that he washed away my sins. My personal scars,
battles, wars, whatever I may call them are not even in the same hemisphere of
what Christ endured on the cross, for me, the spotless, righteous lamb of GOD
who came to earth and lived a perfect, sinless life yet died as he did.
This is not because of me, I’m not worthy, will never be and deserve nothing
more than hell. I get impatient with how I feel things should be and I must
confess that sin to GOD. GOD the almighty, perfect, all knowing, and I
want to tell him what is best for my life. I stand before GOD guilty, nothing more I can say but Guilty,
but his mercy crashed in like the waves and all my sins are washed away, he
took them all, he took them all, without a trace and because of that I stand
free, with every stain, forever washed away. Spotless, whiter than snow,
your blood, Christ blood covers me and I’m whole. I’m graciously
grateful.
