Jesus has Risen, Praise the Lord!!!

Blessings to all who share their love of Jesus Christ our Lord and Saviour with me.  His Peace and Grace showers us with his love and we wait for His return to take us back to Heaven to spend eternity with him and God!!!  Have a wonderful day rejoicing in HIM!!!  Reach out to those around you who may not know the awesome love of God...invite them to Church on Sunday and let them hear how GOD loves them....

God Is Able

Able is the Greek word dunatos, related to dunamis, meaning ability, abundance, capability, mighty works, miraculous power, prevailing strength. "God is able" means God has the mighty power to do a miraculous work out of His abundance and strength. Romans 16:25 says God is able to establish you. Listen to the richness of the verse when read with its full definition "God has mighty power to do a miraculous work out of His abundance and strength to establish you."

Bring your inability to the ability of God. As you read these verses drink in the bigness of Your God as you replace "able" with "has the mighty power to do a miraculous work out of His abundance and strength."

God is ...

Able to give much more 2 Chronicles 25:9

Able to deliver from fire Daniel 3:17

Able to raise up children of Abraham from stones Matthew 3:9

Able to give sight to the blind Matthew 9:28-29

Able to destroy in hell Matthew 10:28, James 4:12

Able to perform what He promised Romans 4:21

Able to graft in the Gentiles Romans 11:23

Able to make you stand Romans 14:4

Able to establish you Romans 16:25

Able to make a way through temptation 1 Corinthians 10:13

Able to make all grace abound 2 Corinthians 9:8

Able to do exceedingly beyond all your asking Ephesians 3:20

Able to subdue everything under His control Philippians 3:21

Able to keep all that is committed to Him 2 Timothy 1:12

Able to help the tempted Hebrews 2:18

Able to save from death Hebrews 5:7

Able to save completely, to the utmost Hebrews 7:25

Able to raise men from the dead Hebrews 11:19

Able to keep you from falling and present you before His presence without fault and with great joy Jude 24

To the only God our Savior be glory, majesty, power, and authority, through Jesus Christ our Lord, before all ages, now and forevermore! Amen Jude 25

Be blessed in the name of God who is able.

Good morning!!!

It's sunny and snowing here in VA..hhehhe  we haven't gotten more than an inch or two over the winter, but it appears we will have a sizable snow on Weds...since Dewey is still having problems with A'Fib it would be difficult for him to shovel snow...I will try, but my back have been giving me a fit for months now...going to have another shot soon....it lasted 3 mos last time!!!
Well, I've been making ATC cards after a long hiatus.  I wanted to share the one I received from Stacey Merrill in our Creative Soul's Ning group for Jan/Feb trade.  It was birds/flowers.  I went with birds and Stacey went with flowers and boy she did an awesome atc.

From Stacey Merrill

 

Here's the one I sent her

 

Thought I'd add a couple other atcs I've created and posted in Flickr

as well as some birds around the feeders here at home!!!

And this is a crocheted orange dress I wore when I was about 10 mos.

my Aunt Susan crocheted it!!

 

Well, I'm gonna say goodbye for today but will post again after Dewey

has his Heart shocked again tomorrow..

Our heart goes out to Dewey's dear friend, Wayne who is battling for his

life after having a heart attack.

Prayers are on going for all our family and friends with medical issues too!!!

 

Another day in the ER

I think my pain stems from sitting in the ER for another day...getting up and down puts a real hurtin on me.  Dewey woke with severe back pain, high fever (101.5) and blood in his urine.  First suspect was that he had a kidney stone, but after a CT Scan it wasn't that.  After hours of doing tests, the doctors believe he's getting shingles...now how did the arrive at that???  It's beyond my understanding.  So we left the ER around 7pm and drove home in what looked like a blizzard, but we only go a dusting..eheheh  Oh, and he was hooked up to a heart monitor of course, and would you believe he was back in Sinus Rhythm???  And he's supposed to see his Cardiologist tomorrow for them to shock his heart!!!  I'll be really happy if it stays in and that doesn't have to be done!!!
Well, I get to get away for a couple hrs~ Our Women's group is meeting for lunch today at our Firehall!!!  Will be nice!!
Blessings to all who stop by~ Bevie :)
 

We have temps up in the 50s....awesome!!!

Hello out there in Blogland. It's been difficulty lately to keep up with, and post in all the blogs I follow...but will try to this week.  It's funny how the weather is playing tricks on us...one day it's raining the next snowing, then the temp goes from in the teens up into the high 50's like today.  Sun's been coming in and out...sigh, can't wait for Spring to start...I want to see new growth popping up in the flowerbeds...the smell of those beautiful perennials makes my heart sing, how about you??  I love all the Seasons actually, but Spring is my fav.  I believe it's the new growth everywhere...a renewing of things to come...gives me so much HOPE, and Peace no only from Nature, but from our Heavenly Father Above!!

Now, I hope to share some recent photos of some birds I captured yesterday and today...Blessings for a wonderful week to come...Peace and grace to each of you!!!

God's blessings in my life

Good morning, I have so much to share with you all...This past week has been filled with God's Blessings for Tuesday, (my 70th Birthday) my husband, Dewey went to the Vascular Heart Ctr at our local Hospital to have his heart shocked!!!  yes, he was scared although he truly believes God is always in control....many times our HUMAN Nature takes over and leads us to worry...not something God wants us to do.  The preparations required to do this took at least 3 hrs...His daughter, Lisa and I sat there with him listening to his Nurse, Paul Shutt describe to him all that was to take place up to the shocking of his heart.  Thinking back about 10 yrs I can remember some of what Paul shared...but things have changed over time.  Course Dewey had an abrasion last time he was in Atrial Fib.  We weren't even aware that what he was feeling was actually A'Fib..he had these symptoms, tired, shortness of breath, dizziness as well for several months however he couldn't feel his heart out of rhythm this time. 
Sooo, well into the 3 hrs they sent Lisa and I out of the room, and no sooner did we sit down the nurse came to get us...it was all over and his heart was back in Rhythm!  It then took him about 2 hrs to be ready to leave.  This is just the second time I've driven him home...eehehe!!!  Now folks I'm a good driver so I don't know why he has an aversion to me driving him..ehehehhe~~  I knew everything was going to go well, you can feel the peace of God within yourself...

 

 

I've been entering Creative Soul's monthly ATC trades, and this one for Jan/Feb was hearts or birds...well you know how much I love painting birds so of course I did a Male Cardinal in all his glory!!! hehhe

 

My partner was Stacey Merrill...a really sweet gal...

Have a wonderful weekend to all!!!
