Wednesday what a day who would have guessed

It was a great start to a busy day we had a lot of trench to dig a watering trough to move and flashing to finish on the top of the shop. Our devotions seemed more intense this morning and direct. We were blessed as Glenda came over for a visit and felt we needed to spend a few minutes and pray about the appeal and the safety of us all. Then off to work the trenching was not going well it seemed the sandy banks were not going to stand at all and this was going to be a long haul. Dave and I worked till about 12:30 then stopped for a bite to eat as James took on the job of preparing the lunch for us fresh potatoes, onions, beans and burgers we were blessed. I had finished my meal and was about tot head back up to the backhoe and I got the call. The voice on the other end of the line was that of my beautiful Diane and she could hardly get the words out as she read the letter from the county, that the appeal was denied and that the county had blessed us with all our permitts and that we were able now to move ahead with this project that only God Himself could have ordained for all this to come about. The most exciting thing is to watch as those that come along side to help with the ranch are being so blessed.

Wednesday Prayer

Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a

listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all

of which have the potential to turn a life around. People come into our

lives for a reason, a season, or a lifetime! We need to embrace all equally!

God still sits on the throne. You may be going through a tough time

right now but God is getting ready to bless you in a way that only He

can. Keep the faith. Give God a chance. Or you have been blessed abundantly and understand that it is all in God's hands and He knows our hearts just the way they really are.

Here is our prayer for you:

Father, I ask You to bless or continue to bless our friends and relatives

reading this right now. Show them a new revelation of Your love and

power. Holy Spirit, I ask You to minister to their spirit at this very

moment. Where there is pain, give them Your peace and mercy. Where there

is self-doubt, release a renewed confidence through Your grace. Bless

their homes, families, ministries, finances, and their goings and their comings. In

Jesus' precious name, Amen.
