guess and win!!!!!!!!

Its good to share our seasons of plenty and seasons of want and NO I am not asking for money!!!! I like to share and then it allow folks to see how faithful our Great God is!!!! And for your info, the three vehicles are up and running as of today and we thank the Lord for HIS faithfulness!!! He will be faithful to "anonymous" in your seasons too if you know Him and I hope you do!!!! Besides, the real reason I even mentioned it was because in our family we have this thing of which is better a Ford or Dodge and we thought it was funny that the Dodge, the underdog had to help out the Ford buddies!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We are going today!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Crazy I know!!!!!

Oh, Elijah is so "proud" (not really proud but......) remember he has a Dodge truck, well his Dodge has had to go rescue our two Fords, the 350 and 250 from truck problems!! We actually have had to have both of them towed, one on Tuesday and one last night!!! :( and our van is on the brink again and not working properly tooo!!!!!! Sooooooooooooooo things are not looking to swell with vehicles...................... and I was suppose to go grocery shopping and I was suppose to pick up a very large item for our home and its a tad disappointing( can't wait to show it to ya) but because I have a wise husband, he reminds me that its all for our good and His glory!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I guess GO Dodge and tell these people around here they "shud" have bought a DODGE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have mentioned we have a huge garden but we also have TONS of weeds!!!!! It has been a tough garden year so far, Terry's tiller broke and literally can not discern the weeds from the plants. It is so true what the scriptures say, that tares and wheat grow together and because God's people are so much like the "world," you can not tell the difference. We were out in the garden this morning trying to do some damage to the weeds, Jeremiah (8) asked a simple question of "why do weeds grow so much when there is good stuff growing?" In winter it is not a problem. Maybe its like a Christian who is luke warm, or in winter of their hearts and Satan does'nt see them as a threat to God's kingdom, they are just ho-hum Christians, attend church, don't really seek God in prayer and reading daily, they just coast along. But maybe there is one that is with all their hearts seeking, praying, being fervent and diligent, then Satan sees them as a threat to God's kingdom, because they are "living for Christ." So it is with weeds, maybe they can be seen as trials and they try to choke us down and smother us to where we will not grow and produce fruit. Jeremiah is very observant and there are so many applications to receive from a garden. The weeds could represent sin, or "little foxes" that come to steel away from us. No wonder Jesus used the garden for speaking truth, He knew we would till our ground and I know He desires us to learn from His creation.

Bethany's BD is June 24th! She will be 21!!!!! Last year when Danielle was here we went to the Tea Room as a little celebration. This year Danielle wanted to do something again while she was here. So I came up with this "idea" and told Danielle about it and she was very excited about the plan. Talked to Terry and he was good with it too! So tomorrow, Thursday we are going on a little BD adventure. We did this 17 years ago and and have not since then. I am going to give away a "Summer prize" for whoever is the FIRST person to guess what we are going to do, (Lord willing) Leave as many comments as you like and the winner will be the FIRS T one who guesses right, I will announce the winner Friday at 4 pm afternoon central time!! Bethany does not even know yet, but after reading this it will be a good hint!! Our whole family is doing this and another family!!!!

Go for it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
