Let's Begin

                                           
My husband and I have been married 26 years next month. We married as high school sweethearts.
We have a blended family of (you could say we have 3 children, 4 children or 5 children and all 3 be accurate in one way or another)  4 children we have raised and a total of 5 grandchildren.

We have a daughter married, A son that just recently moved into his own place, a senior in high school and a 10 yr old still at home.
We are an average family that has discussions, disagreements, and yes we have arguments from time to time. We love hard and we still are not perfect by any means. We live life each day with the mindset to do better each day than we did the day before. This keeps us moving forward, but also reviewing each day to find where we can improve. 
No life is not mapped out to the point that you cannot move or breath. We move forward in spite of the obstacles that come our way. If we stop to dwell on the situation we end up getting stuck there and that becomes our main focus and then it is all we can see. If we view it as a temporary situation then it is just that and stays within those parameters, then we can still move forward and continue to grow. 

Life can happen without you getting stuck in it, but moving with it. Neither life nor time will stop due to a situation. They will both continue to go forward and things will still happen.
If we stop in the situation we dwell in a place of pain, difficulty, sadness, or hurt. Why would we do that to ourselves?

Well this is my first blog attempt. I guess this will be a short event today.

How Super is Super-Man

Super-Man has so much trouble with his decisions. He had no Alfred or Jarvis, but he sometimes listened to Batman or his current sidekick. His sidekicks were temporary, and he usually turns away those that offer to help him on a long-term basis. Except for his dog, Krypto. He acts like he needs only himself but comes up short each time. Lois Lane has him wrapped around her finger, so he does crazy stuff for her that benefits only her and gets others killed or injured. He does not think clearly when it comes to her. Superman needs a consistent friend that can be there and put up with his foolishness and pride. Even more than the Justice League. He has them trying to help him figure out this human thing. He had an identity crisis for most of his life. Sound familiar? We as earthlings find ourselves dealing with this as well. The world is constantly telling us who we are or whom we are supposed to be. The Holy Spirit is the Word of God. He is alive and will speak to us to tell u...

Super Hero Sidekick

We host the Holy Spirit wherever we go. We are his transport the Holy Spirit is not our servant. He is like Alfred is to Batman. You live like Batman, in secret, doing good. God says, "I will reward you in the open, like Bruce Wayne. What would Batman be, without Alfred? Alfred was his guide, his conscience, his best friend. Batman walked away from all of it because it wasn't helping his heart. He came back for Revenge. As he was working towards that, even the opportunity for Revenge was taken from him. At his lowest point, he chose to do it God's way. Alfred suggested this way when Batman was in combat training to be a ninja. He was driven by his passion for Revenge, when he hit rock bottom at the end of himself he was able to hear the Holy Spirit and do it His way. Super-Man has nothing. He has no sidekick and turns away anyone that offers to help him. He acts like he needs only himself but comes up short each time. Lois Lane has him wrapped around her finger he...

This Life is a Race

Life is a race. Each of us has a different race to run and a different speed in which to take it. Each one of us has choices to make as we go through life. Choices of how dedicated we want to be or not to be. How quickly we end the race will be determined by our dedication and distractions we allow to step in and affect our progress. We can be more effective or less effective in or walk or run through life. Another choice is given to us. We can bring people with us as we go or we can create stumbling blocks to place in their path to prevent them from running/walking with us.  If we allow others to come along beside us we can build them up as well as have a greater support group for ourselves to encourage us as we are on our journey. It is not always a matter of one foot in front of the other. Sometimes we have to motivate ourselves to step out of our comfort area and do something a little scary and unusual for us. When we do this, we inevitably make much greater progress, than...
