Home Again, Home again, jiggety jog.

Well, I have been gone for the past 2 weeks to California. Got to see our three California grandbabies. We had a good trip. Will post more later along with some pictures. I have picked up a cold since I came home so needless to say I am not feeling the best. Check back late for more detailed post and pics.

Newest addition to our family.

Welcome to the family Benjamin.

One more grandbaby!

Well, once again the Lord has blessed us with another grandson, Benjamin Earnest Adra. He was born Feb. 5, 2009 at 5:30 am.. Weighing in at 8lbs 3 oz..My daughter, Rachel will be posting photos on her blog Joyfulpraise located on my sidebar. After she has introduced him to all her blog followers, I too will be posting some pics, if I get any to post. This makes 5 grandbabies for myself and my husband. Our Sarah is in heaven, Gracie, Charlie, and Jude live in California, and Benjamin is in Emmaus, Pa. We rejoice that God has been so good to us.

"As for God, his way is perfect: the word of the LORD is tried: he is a buckler to all those that trust in him." A buckler is a shield and it is no good to that one who does not trust it to protect him in the hour of battle. Just as the LORD is our buckler, but only if we trust in Him. There is a lot said about trust in the Word of God. It would certainly make a good word study. Hope you have a good Lord's day.

Icing on a cake.

This reminded me of marshmellow icing on top of a cake. It was a beautiful snow icing put there by the mighty hand of God. We have a wonderful heavenly Father who gives us many beautiful things to enjoy. I praise Him and thank Him for His great love wherewith He loves us.

A snowy day in Emmaus, Pa.

God is still in control.

Today is indeed a historic day for our country. I keep trying to look at our new president as just another human being that God has raised up to fulfill His purpose on this earth, instead of looking at him as an african American who has risen to the top office in our country. However everytime the media has anything to say about him they capitalize on the fact that he is black. You know, Pres. Obama had absolutely nothing to do with the color of his skin, as none of us do. To me it is not important whether he is black, yellow, white or red, but that he conducts himself in a way that is beneficial to our country. God has allowed him to be in this position, whether he realizes it or not, and he has a great responsibility to each and every american, not just a select few. God's word tells us to pray for our leaders, which I will endeavor to do, realizing that ultimately  it is God who is still in control.
