Betty, what a magical moment you had with Paul. that was definitely divine inspiration.

I've had lots of success in previous cases. Animals respond well to homoeopathy.

Im grateful I have the gratitude family to share with at this time of night a sthis is when I miss my Mom the most

excerpt from "Inspirational Whispers"
written by Barbara DeHart-Titone
 
 
 
 
“Walk With Me”
 
Jesus walk with me each day
Hear my need for help along the way
Guide my thoughts and actions too
Show me what you would do.
 
Jesus touch my heart with the ability to love
Even those who act less deserving of need a hug
Open my eyes so I can see You’re heavenly vision of humanity
Guide my words to inspire others when they are deaf to what really matters
 
Hold me when people are insensitive
Lashing out or causing hurtful feelings
Let me know you are beside me
so I don’t respond unkindly and wind up feeling guilty
 
Jesus keep me sheltered with your inner peace
Teach me as you did the disciples along the Sea of Galilee
Help me to hold you’re principles when I make decisions
Striving for your holy vision as I interact with others in
higher positions at the end of the day
Whisper to me as I pray so I will feel less alone along the way

Status: offline 		Barbara, as I read your post late this evening I want to remind you of what you already know that you are never alone, your mother is still with you, closer than you realize.

I appreciate your prayer for loving kindness toward those whose behavior might evoke a different response. You may never know how it might change their day!

I am grateful for something very simple - Leon was able to use his scooter to go and have his hair cut, the first "professional" haircut in many months!

Status: offline 		Tonight I am grateful for a train ride, which brought me the special joy of listening to a little four-year-old boy and his grandfather. For some time I did not see anything of them, but I could hear the child´s enthusiastic exclamations of joy and wonder as well as his excited questions about everything he saw, and his "Opa´s" empathic, patient answers. Before getting off, I stopped to talk to them a little and was surprised to see another little boy sitting in Grandpa´s lap. I learned that the two boys were twins, the quiet one being a Down´s syndrome child. Meeting with them made me feel grateful for all grandparents, who lovingly take care of their grandchildren, and for the innate capacity for joy that children are gifted with.

Today I am grateful for an offer of help to get to the bus station tomorrow. Apparently I can be on computer from my bed at my Sister's house if I so wish !! So I should be able to keep popping in to see you all as usual.

I am also grateful for helping with a housewarming party for my young neighbor, at which 4 generations got together.

I am also grateful that my eldest Sister's health news was better than we feared.

Love, Jude

Status: offline 		Today I am grateful for a beautiful sunny day which allowed us to take another trip to the Farmers' Market. I am grateful that the weather has been perfect for the annual Air and Water Show allowing millions to enjoy the spectacle, Barbara included! Now, if this could happen without the noisy assault on the eardrums of all who live in the vicinity of the lake! Three days of this noise that sets off car alarms can be pretty deafening! Still, the artistry in the air is quite exhilarating and breath-taking!

Edda
