The journey has only begun. I have not been at this for very long, but am glad a good friend suggested I give this a try. She is one of the sweetest people I've met. She was one of the first people I met at our church.
At first I thought, ehhh, this won't last long. I have no talent for writing. I've have a couple of testimonies to share. No one is going to want to read my ramblings.
A saying I use on my men often, "Oh ye of so little faith." Hmmm, I believe those words have come right back at me. When one relies on the Lord, listens and follows, it is amazing what can happen.
Through the journey, I have met many people who have a heart for God too. It's been such an inspirational trip. Their are so many wonderful people out here in blogland. What a great way to share and get to know others. I thank you sweet friend for leading me to this glorious journey. I now know why you made this suggestion.
All too often we have things to share that we would never have imagined in our wildest dreams would be worthwhile. We just need to learn to trust our inner most feelings.
With this all said, I'd like to thank all of you that I have met here in bloggersville.
Crayons in My Briefcase; you've been a blessing in my life more than you could ever imagine. Words could never say thank you enough.
God is our Love, you are simply amazing. You inspire me with your love for the Lord. You give me hope, encouragement; you are simply a blessing.
Simply Heather, you have so much to offer.
Simply Put, you have your inspirational and humorous side that has always been a joy to life.
Rabbit Run Cottage, you have such an amazing family. You are refreshing.
Nanny Goats in Panties, I feel like I've known you all my life even though we've never met. You really brighten my days.
Meggies Stuff, I really enjoy you love for life. You are so uplifting.
One minute writer, you are a joy to follow on both your blogs.
I'm sure I've left some out here, in fact I know I have, but for those that share, have a great sense of humor, are kind and inspirational, those of you that obviously have a heart, Thank You!
Father, thank you for placing all these lovely people in my path. You never cease to amaze me with your workings. Your timing is perfect. Please pour your blessings out on to each and everyone. Thank you Father for Your loving hand, Your guidance, for this journey, for Your inspiration to move forward, for creating such beautiful people, for Your words.
In Jesus Name, Amen
God Bless and definitely P.U.S.H. (thank you hon for this one)

Laughter
I'm sure you have all heard the saying, "Laughter is the best medicine." Well I found a quote about laughter while reading a book tonight and want to share it with you all.
My grandmother had told me that someone who can make you have a good belly laugh was a special person. I always wondered just what she meant by that, and would tell people that could really get me to let loose and have a good belly laugh was special, as to me they were. Now I realize that they are special indeed, as they are adding years to our lives. J Just think, someone gets you to have a good hearty laugh, you are burning calories. Burning calories is good for the heart, lungs, oxygen level etc.
So the next time you feel like laughing, let it out, and look for more laughter in your life. Above all, try to bring laughter into other people’s life as well. The more we laugh, the better we feel. Happy laughing all!

Laugh! It’s an Energizing Exercise!
“As with aerobic exercise, laughter temporarily accelerates the heart rate,
increases blood pressure and breathing, enlarges circulation and enhances the flow of oxygen in and out of the body. A hearty belly laugh also exercises the upper torso, lungs, heart, shoulders, arms, abdomen, diaphragm and legs. Laughing 100 to 200 times a day is equivalent to ten minutes of rowing or jogging.
…Belly laughter is the most therapeutic form of laughter, and that
is the reason I recommend ten belly laughs a day to all of my patients. Ten
belly laughs are roughly equivalent to thirty minutes of aerobic
exercise.”
