Ask for prayer for my brother-in-law, who deploys to Iraq next week.
Interests:
Church music (classically trained pianist and pipe organist); literary scholar and educator
I'm passionate about...
Classical sacred music, family, friends, food/cooking (especially my Aunt Margaret's recipe for meatballs and pasta that I'm trying to emulate, but can't!), my herb and flower garden, the outdoors, and all of God's good gifts in this life.
My story with God
Being a Episcopalian, I prefer to keep my relationship between God and me a private matter. But I can say that looking back over my life, God has and continues to be good to me. I'm thankful for His Grace, and for keeping my loved ones safe. At the age of 43, I'm still blessed with three grandparents who are doing well. My Grandmother Jenkins is with The Father, and while I miss her, she no longer suffers.) Three years ago, I almost lost my dad to a fatal heart attack - and the year before, my mother suffered an acute pancreatic attack. God spared both my parents and continues to bless my family by keeping us close. They mean everything to me - always have. I'm not a wealthy person, but I feel I am the most blessed person in the world.
I'm thankful for the gift of music in my life, and for the ability to have shared that gift for almost 30 years. And I'm thankful that He has given me a good life to share with others.
Other stuff about me:
AllAboutGod.com CEO is my cousin. I'm very, very proud of you and Candy and the work that you're doing. I've always been in awe of your intellectual gifts and resourcefulness. Keep fighting the fight and running the race, Greg. And please put Peter on your site's prayer list and please pray for his safety every day. He is so important to Tracy (my sister), his children, Haley and Kristen, and to our family. You and Candy have my love and continued prayerful support of the important work that you're doing.
One step at a time is the best way to go
When going through life and traveling in the direction of your dreams
The best way to get ahead is the simpliest way:
Take one step at a time
Don’t look over your shoulder
If you do, you’ll feel the weight of all your yesterdays upon you
And don’t worry about what lies ahead
By the time you get to the bend in the road or the crest of the hill
You’re going to be better and stronger than you ever were before
Just go one step at a time
One day at a time
And you’ll find a rich, thankful life you never thought you could afford….
My gift for you:I found this place for Christian affirmations.All we have to do is replace the bad thoughts with good thoughts..simple,isn't it? <a href="http://bit.ly/dg4vGg">http://bit.ly/dg4vGg</a>
