Well every one, its a new day and all that implies, new jobs, new homes, new friends and people to work with... New Life!
Pray for me and my new teem that we can get everything done in God's time.
I like to ask the Lord for personal keys for various challenges so he gave me this one for the new situation.
New Key:
Call on the keys or growth and change and rise to the occasion in full faith. When you put Me on the spot and trust me for your future I combine these two keys for the best results to help you reach EXCELLENCE in all your new objectives.
I lOVE YOU GUYS!

Monday
How bout a sprightly, young man with that free day?
Joe and I found great pleasure in snapping shots of each other, the scenery was perfect and the sun emphasized the golden glow in Joe's eyes. I'm going to have as much fun posting these as I did taking them.

I really like this one on the tracks. Photos are a great way to explore each other, it's a lot of fun but there is also something very humbling about it.
So hansom. (twinkle twinkle!)

What could be more rewarding?
Christina Good has applied herself to working with teens and young adults for year . Today she receives her first award at the Annual Appreciation banquet sponsored by Bexar County department of Corrections. It officially acknowledges the love and commitment her work entails. but we never needed a plaque did we mom?
"This might be my " Obra Prima" Ministry (beside raising you kids..." she said over chat.
She met with three Judges and is being asked to give counseling to not only the Juveniles but the guards responsible for their care.
Mom and her Captain, Chaplain Al Logan.
Prior to her work, mom received 21 years of working with Juvenile delinquents aka, sons, who are as thrilled about the reward as she. (no pun intended Marty)

Today I had my Ester Chapel with a group of boys and a group of girls at the Juvi.The lord gave me two wonderful PPs to show the kids and I madebutterfly balloons and big hearts tying all the elements together toillustrate rebirth, redemption and the love of God!
I was so exited about this class! The Holly Spirit told me I was going to meet someone special.
At the girls' class I couldn't help but to notice this young lady, all smiles at me and she was having such a good time .
In the middle of the class she couldn't help herself andinterrupted "Ma'am do you have a daughter named Nini?"
Yes,She is actually my 8 year old granddaughter and everyone thinksshe is my little girl,(and she is).But how do you know about her? In fact, I am wearing this Easter hatshe bought for me at the thrift store.
The teen went on to tell me I had come to her little sister'sbirthday party as a clownand Shani spilled face paint all over her new pants! (In over 16years of clowning this has only happened once,With this teengirl.) I remembered her family right away, they were my friends.
Her father was very worried about the teens in his household and I offered to come over with my son for Biblestudies and fellowship...but it never seemed to be a good time.
A year later her parents divorced, Kimberly was here when it happened, at Bexar County JuvenileDetention. I was able to freely counsel and witness to her ad tell herhow much Jesus loves her .
Of the 20 teens who received the Lord today, Kimberly was a special soul I'll not soon forget.
I wish I could have taken pictures of this to show you,but it is notpossible. So all you get is me and the hat. Happy Easter!

train
Couldn't sleep, too many things to stay awake for, like the train. Even when your no where near the tracks trains take you places. Just the sound brings back a thousand pictures... imagine how many words.
She uses the train to escape to early mornings just before school, waiting for the green light even though she'd rather stay inside the car, and good memories too like waking up next to a warm body, waking up next to a warm sunny day, anticipating a hot cup of coffee. Trains represent something good, anticipation, excitement, change. They say all change is good, even a last kiss, a last bit of trust and a fever that changed... everything. Trains close distances, but they expand them too.
It stoped making any sense, it's also not the first time she brought her pillow into the bathroom with her, couldn't be worth much if it wasn't mobile anyway ... things like a pan cake". She should be asleep, in fact she thought she was until she found herself lying there not asleep, awake, letting the train take her away.
She finds herself riding it a lot at absurd hours like 4:21 pm. She doesn't ever really want to go anywhere. She just likes the sound, the movement. It feels safe inside, it makes change more bearable, even exciting.
There is no place she wants to go really so she just hangs on, watches the land scape and scenery change color. She just lets the train chose the destination. But if she could go anywhere, she'd go to sleep.

I started reading heaven's Library books "Her day in Court" and now "Two Tests and a Wish".
I'm so proud of myself. I always used to tell myself I'd read more but the Lord kind of had to force me into it. Oh yeah, our home got chicken pox and we have been unable to fellowship for a month and three weeks, around that. Thus the late night book worming
Poor kids, it was tough but predictably the Lord brought the best out of the situation. Unity has been a big aftermath of the quarantine... I mean, we had to do something with ourselves!!
Little Tiffy was the last to get it, we even thought she might not get it at all. "Had us goin there for a while kido", but sure enough she broke out in those terrible little lumps about a month after the first brake out. "you won the contest Tiffy".. thats what we told her.
The feast was also such a high light, our whole home was absolutely thrilled. Amazing things are happening people, amazing things, I mean, I did start reading more.
So to wrap it up we are finally at the end of our quarantine and ling looking forward to hugs and fellowship like never before. All things work together for good.
The End
