My oldest son, JB, is finally home from Iraq. There is little likelihood of his return as he signed on with the Army National Guard when they committed to both shorten his guard duty by almost two years and guaranteed he would not deploy. He knows the Lord. I am blessed.
Tyler, 18, is in India right now presenting the gospel message through mime and music and drama and words (using interpreters). He was able to manage a two minute phone call today to wish my happy Mother's Day. He is running hard after the Lord and planning a life of full-time ministry. I am blessed.
My husband is a Godly man who has a great sense of humor and almost unlimited patience. (Trust me, he needs it around me!) Without him I would not be who I am today. He has allowed and encouraged me to follow my dreams. I am blessed.
My God and Saviour Jesus Christ died for me. He rose again from the dead and defeated death for all time. He took my sins to the cross and I am forgiven and saved. I am eternally blessed.
Praise God from Whom all blessings flow . . . .
If you do not know the Lord this day and you know something is missing from your life, I hope that you can find someone to talk to who does know Him. Pick up a Bible and begin reading in the New Testament, perhaps in the book of John. Pick up the book "More than a Carpenter" by Josh McDowell. He that created you and the Universe, loves you! Be blessed.

Happy Mother's Day to you!! Thanks for your comment on my post "1 down & 2 to go." I am very new to this arena & appreciate you taking the time to read it. After reading abit about you - you must be awfully proud of your sons. Your son's book sounds just like something my 15yr old would read. He loves history - even current events where this war is concerned. I am glad to read JB is back on American soil. How long will Tyler be in India? My daughter performed mime to share the gospel in Europe a few years ago - it was truely a life impacting time.
Thank you again for stopping by. I look forward to the fellowship.

You are blessed indeed! and i think the book you recommended by McDowell is one of the very best -- that is the book that helped cement my faith years ago

Hope you are doing well. And what a neat Mother's Day post! I loved it, and just had to tell you so. But the reason I stopped over was because I was so thrilled that your banner was right there above my front porch post this week. I was so happy to see it there, my friend Maggie! LOL. I hope everyone finds out about your wonderful products and supports your untiring efforts. God bless you and your family :)

Thanks for sharing your blessings! I think I need to do the same. We have been on the road for 5.5 weeks and it's really getting old. But we have had many blessings along the way. Glad you had a great mother's day!

Mrs. Mags,
Now I know where you are on the web and I will be coming here regularly! Thanks for your kind comment on my own blog. When are you going to blog about the convention from your perspective? I can't wait.
You are a precious human and it was a delight to spend time with you!!
Warmly,
Kate
