I feel safe.

And for the record...the hugging poses were not staged.

The Sweet Life

Happy Sweetest Day!

My sweetheart is a man above men. Bob is a wonderful husband, dutiful son, encouraging father, and a loving grandpa...among other things....
One of the best things about bob, is the way he brings the kids into his life.
Whatever job Bob has had...he always took the kids and involved them...when he coached they were his managers...when he taught at Joe Dumars, they were his assistants...Our grandkids have visited the health classes at his school, our kids have given speeches there, and they all particiapted in his field days at school...( even the twins demonstrated "lacrosse" to kids who'd never seen it)

two pictures here...one of him allowing Nathan to carry the clipboard for him..
and another of him allowing Jordan (nate's son) to carry his clipboard....
I love this man, this father, this grandpa with all my heart!!!

I am thankful for Isaac

Isaac posted his favorite things....
and he is one of mine.
Isaac is a happy ,thoughtful,energetic, adorable boy who loves Jesus.
He is polite & playful
and he should come visit me soon.


I am also thankful to have known Tony Galuszka.
I read in the paper that he has left us to be with Jesus.
He is probably one of the nicest men I have ever known and
although I have not seen him in years...I will miss his presence.
Heartfelt condolences to the entire family.

"Stand your ground...

"Stand your ground, putting on the belt of truth
and the body armor of God’s righteousness." Eph 6:14

The belt of truth.
The most important part of the weapontry…
The belt held the sword, and when not in use the shield hung on it.
The breastplate was attached in several places for stability.
the rest of the armor would fall apart if not for the belt of truth.

It was essential that the belt be in place- firmly attached so the warrior could be assured the the rest of his equipment would stay in place,
and be ready for use.
So he could move quickly and fight with fury.

For the child of God the belt of truth of his spiritual armor
is the written (logos) word of God.

Joh 17:17 ¶ Sanctify them through thy truth, thy word (logos) is truth (aletheia)

When God’s word is wrapped around you…your righteousness is firmly in front of you, your faith is in reach , the sword (rhema) of the spirit is at hand.

Without that belt firmly in place...your breastplate (righteouness) swings back and forth, your shield (faith) is cumbersome (trying to hold things together) as it drops downs it messes with your feet (peace)..causing you to stumble a bit.
It sure makes it hard to fight the good fight that way.

Warriors.... got your Belt on?
