So commit yourselves wholeheartedly to these words of mine. Tie them to your hands and wear them on your forehead as reminders. Teach them to your children. Talk about them when you are at home and when you are on the road, when you are going to bed and when you are getting up. Write them on the doorposts of your house and on your gates, so that as long as the sky remains above the earth, you and your children may flourish in the land the Lord swore to give your ancestors. Dueteronomy 11:18-21

Things I am thankful for....
this seems to be a theme this week, so here goes.
This has been a really hard time for my family, the stress of the house situation still not being resolved, along with many changes in our lives all sort of relating back to that.
If you don't know, we put the kids back in school last week and I am now looking for a job again. Ouch, that actually hurt to type. In spite of all that we still have things to be thankful for
The kids really like licking valley schools - their teachers seem nice. The second day of school Macguines' teacher told the class that the earth is millions of years old and Macguines had the where with all to explain the adult earth concept to his teacher - God created an adult man and an adult earth - I'm thankful that Pastor Dear had just gone over that the Sunday evening before, and that Macguines was listening. When Mac's teacher said that scientists had studied this, Macguines said that if scientists had studied Adam they would have said he was 30, but he was really only 10 seconds old. Good Job Mac!
Everyone is healthy this year and no one has died - this sounds crazy, but the past few years at Thanksgiving time we have had deaths in our extended family, this year everyone is healthy and able to get together and celebrate.
We have somewhere to live - our rental was supposed to be up on November 20th, so the fact that it has been paid for another 3 months is a blessing.
Finally I am thankful we have a God who cares, He is an anchor through any storm, I am learning that more and more.
See you soon ,
