Facebook


I have a Facebook page. But honestly, I don't know what is so great about Facebook. Maybe my age is showing? To me it's just mindless comments about nothing important or relavent to me. There are times when I try to make a comment about God or my walk with Him to see who's really reading it. Disappointment in knowing only one or two people will comment. But I think it's because people are afraid to let the "friends" know them deeply.
This picture is my youngest grandchild, Madyson. She will be one in December. My son and his family live in California. We live in the Midwest. So you can imagine how often I see them... Count the times on one hand. Even though they are quite a distance away I can just pick up the phone and hear a voice and I'm ok again.
My mother in law has been gone now a couple of years and not a day goes by that I don't think of her. Is that because she is near me in spirit? I hope she is. Will my children think of me that often once this life is over? Yes I think they will.
My father in law has been gone a year and sad to say I don't think of him that often. He was an ornery old fart. Very opinionated. I wonder if he is so opinionated with God? Hmmmmmm.
Days at work seem dull. Our season is ending in our work and now we hope to get through the fall and winter. This could be the first time this company has ever had to lay people off. First the part timers will go and possibly one full time employee will go. Things will have to get really bad before I would have to go if you go by seniority but who does that anymore?
Keep praying for Mr. Obama. Why you ask? Because the bible tells us to. Keep praying period. Amen.
