Hi everyone!


Well, he's finally here! Our first grandson arrived on April 26. He weighed 8 lbs. 2 oz. and was 19 1/2" long. We'll call him D.C. until he gets a nickname! He looks like his daddy and his sisters adore him! We stayed with Deuce, Lili & Fessers while Fenori & T were in the hospital. We had a great time and I have pictures to share!

The girls get to meet their baby brother and they love him!!!

Deuce with baby D.C. Lili with D.C. Fessers loves touching him!!!

The girls dancing & singing songs from "Mommy & Me" while waiting

for Mommy, Daddy & Brother to get home from the hospital.

D.C. & Mommy catching some much needed rest!!! Shhhhh!

T.L., J.A., Bean & Bug may be coming this weekend so they can see the new baby. I know I'll have more pictures to share then!

I'm so grateful & thankful to my wonderful Heavenly Father for all the blessings in my life. For health, happiness, prosperity, my wonderful family, my precious church family, the priceless privilage of being part of the family of God and the awesome responsibility of being a carrier of the Good News! God is not holding anything against anyone. Jesus gave Himself to pay the price for sin for all who would believe & receive. Is there any reason you can't receive Jesus as your Lord and Savior now and have heaven as your home when you leave this earth? Click on the Spoken Word Church link on the right side and you will find how to become a child of God and many other things you need to know once you become a member of His family. Have a most blessed day!

Hi everyone!

It's been beautiful here today, finally! I spent yesterday with my daughter and her three girls. She had her weekly appointment so I played with the girls. Always a fun time, I'll post pics soon! The baby will probably be born later next week. I can't wait to see him and find out his name (& nickname!)

The tragic murders that happened this week are so horrendous, the fact that a human being could do something like that is almost unbelievable. Almost. I had a really sobering thought. While I was studying the Bible the other day I was in Deuteronomy reading about the cities of refuge that were set up for the protection of someone who had accidently killed another. They were not allowed to protect someone who had actually murdered someone (the shedding of innocent blood). When I thought about the massacre that occured at Virginia Tech and how much media coverage it received, and is still receiving, and, I'm totally sure, will be milked by every network for all it's worth, I was reminded of the almost 1.4 million unborn babies that were murdered in this country alone in the last year. No media outlet ever covers that, no flags flown at half-mast, no memorial services. There is no more innocent blood than that of an unborn child. Our nation talks about human rights policies of other nations when we allow some of the most barbaric practices ever heard of to be performed on the most defenseless of our people. That this country hasn't been judged for that alone is nothing less than the mercy of God!

That same merciful God has provided the Way for us to come to Him, be rid of our sinful nature, have heaven as our home when we leave this earth and the power and ability to serve Him while we're still here! I am so glad that I have found my Savior! Have you? Don't wait until it is too late! Click on The Spoken Word Church link and you will find out how to receive Jesus the Christ as Lord and Savior and to begin a whole new way of Life!

Shalom!

Hi everyone!

It's been awhile and it's been busy! Fenori is VERY ready for the baby to be born. The baby is already measuring full term size, so we may be seeing him earlier than we thought. God's perfect time, though.

Deuce has finished school (first grade) and did extremely well. She's reading alot and loves it.

We spent Wednesday with T.L., J.A., Bean & Bug. We were celebrating Bug's 4th birthday that was March 31st. I have some pictures to share!

I also met recently with two friends that I went to High School with. We are planning our (shh...35 year) class reunion. It was great to see them and we actually recognized each other!

On a serious note, I know that it's pretty obvious that there is a real spirit of hatred operating in our country. It is most noticeable and gets the most coverage in the political realm, but it is happening everywhere! We hear of the awful things people are doing to each other and you wonder what would ever make a person do that! Then we remember what Jesus said, that our fight is not with people but with the spirits operating through them:

Eph 6:11-1311 Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.13 Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.(KJV)

Our job as believers is to keep our full armour on, take our God-given authority over all the works of the enemy & continue to preach the simple and powerful Gospel of Jesus Christ. That is the only way people will be set free. We'll be about our Father's business, He'll be pleased & we'll be blessed! I like that!

Have a great weekend!

Hi everyone!
It has been awhile since I've had the time to post. Very busy times! We had Deuce, Lili & Fessers for the weekend while Fenori and T worked to get the baby's room ready! (About a month left and it can't go fast enough for Fenori!).
The girls were great and it was lots of fun. There is just nothing like being Grandma!
Deuce is almost done with school. She is reading very well, reading Bible story books and getting all the big names (like Philistines!!!). I am really impressed!
T.L., J.A. and the girls spent a week in Florida. I can't wait to see their pictures! We will be celebrating Bug's 4th birthday soon. Has it really been that long?

We have been meeting with a group of local Pastors who have a real heart for reaching the people in our area. It has been a great blessing to hear them share and grow together! The devil had better take notice and leave this area NOW because he is in for a real beating when leaders put away pride and jealousy and choose God's will above all else!

If you haven't been keeping up with what's going on in the world check out my links to Joel Rosenberg and Hal Lindsey. These two both do a great job presenting current events from a Biblical perspective. That will help you understand the times we're living in and hopefully give you motivation for sharing the Gospel with everyone possible!

If you've never received Jesus as your Lord and Savior, I urge you to click on The Spoken Word Church link. You will find the answers to alot of questions you may have and a place to contact us for help! Don't let another day go by without making sure you belong to the family of God! TODAY is the day of Salvation!

God's best to you all!

I HAVE PICTURES!!!
We had a really fun time at the Disney on Ice: Princess Wishes show on Saturday. The girls were surprised and loved the show!These are some of the pics we took:

Hi all!

Hope you are having a wonderful day! I spent Friday and Saturday with T & Fenori and the girls. We took the girls to see Disney on Ice: The Princess Wishes. It was a wonderful show and the girls loved it! I will post some pictures shortly! T.L. & J.A. and the girls are in Florida for vacation with their other Grandparents so maybe we'll have pictures from them when they return.

I'm still amazed at how the world views the news when I find everthing that is happening has already been prophesied in the Bible! The God of all the universe knows exactly what's happening and what is about to happen and He lets us in on it! These are exciting times and also urgent times to make sure we are letting everyone in on the Good News that God isn't holding anything against anyone. That Jesus the Christ has already paid the price for eternal salvation and all that is left to do is to believe and receive!

Check out this link and listen to the broadcast (Ezekiel's Enigma)for insight into the nation of Israel and what is happening and soon to happen and keep looking up!http://www.hallindsey.org

Have a great day!

Hello everyone!
Here is an ultrasound picture of my newest grandchild. He should be born the end of April. We're really looking forward to the first grandson after 5 granddaughters! His sisters and cousins are excited, too! Isn't this new technology amazing?! There is no doubt that this is a real person in there! Beautifully and wonderfully made by God Himself!Can't wait to see him for real soon!

Hi All,

We had a great weekend in the North country! It was also very white! We spent Saturday afternoon at the hotel swimming and the girls had lots of fun. Then Saturday night into Sunday morning was a blizzard. The family couldn't get out to come back to the hotel for a morning swim so we went to them. We had to park our car three blocks away and walk in blizzard conditions through sometimes knee deep snow to get to their house! They all had great fun with snow forts and such later, though, so it was a very fun time. Here are some pics from the weekend

I am so blessed with such a unique and loving family, a great church where the Word of God is taught boldly, uncompromisingly, precisely, accurately and in Love, a church family that gives such great support, and a "job" where I am able to do what I love most (study the Word, pray, teach & preach).

There is so much happening at such a rapid pace in the world that it would boggle the mind of the person not familiar with God's Word! If that sounds like you, I invite you to check out my "work" link (The Spoken Word Church). There you will receive answers to alot of the questions you may have and the ability to contact us with more questions. God truly does love you with an everlasting Love! Jesus is proof positive of that fact. He (Jesus) is my very best friend and I want YOU to know Him like that! 'Til next time.

What a busy week! Getting ready to go for a weekend with the entire family. I can't wait to see all of the granddaughters together again. J.A.'s birthday is Monday and we will be celebrating that all together. Such fun!

Meanwhile, things in the world continue to happen at such a rapid pace that its hard to keep up with it all. I was brought back this week to my favorite Scripture passage, Phil. 3:8-14. Paul said: "my determined purpose is to know Him ( to become more deeply and intimately acquainted with Him) AMP. I want that to be MY determined purpose, too. To know Him more every day, to understand Him better, to think like He thinks, talk like He talks and to act like He acts! Then people will look at me and see Jesus, and that's a good thing, because He is the only real answer!

Here is a picture of my girls! From left to right in the back are Lili, Deuce, Bean and Bug with little Fessers in the front. This is last year's picture and they all have pretty new dresses for this year. I will post that picture as soon as we all get together again! My new little grandson also has an ultrasound picture that I may post later on. Deuce, Lili & Fessers are the daughters of my daughter, Fenori and son-in-law, T. They are expecting their son this spring. Bean & Bug are the daughters of my son, T.L. and daughter-in-law, J.A. (We use nicknames to protect their privacy!)

We just celebrated Deuce's 6th birthday last Thursday! She is being home-schooled and doing extremely well. She is reading and loves it and she counted to 111 for me on her birthday! Bean is also in school and we will be seeing them this weekend so I can report on her progress! Lili is busy being a good big sister while Mommy & Deuce have school and Bug is in pre-school and also helps Mommy in the Day Care she runs from their home. Fess is busy being Fess! She loves her sisters, spinning, talking on the phone ("hello!") and football ("touchdown!").

I'll try to post more later but for now have a great day and remember that THIS is the day the Lord has made! Let's all rejoice and be glad in it & in Him!!!

Hi everyone!
Welcome to my first venture into the blog world! I am so new to this that it will be a real adventure and a learn-as-I-go experience. Any help or suggestions will be welcomed and greatly appreciated. I believe this will be a great way to keep in touch with friends and loved ones and to meet new people! My primary purpose in life is to share the love of Jesus and the Good News (the Gospel!) with everyone I come in contact with. God LOVES you and Jesus proved it!
Robin
