Wonderful God.

It's all been really stressful today, this morning I spent four hours on a speed awareness course because I had gone over the speed limit by just a few miles,it made me feel really guilty and I was scared to get back in the car afterwards!!..Joe and Daisy have been really tired with looking after the baby and have been arguing...but everything has settled down now etc they have gone shopping with his Dad who feels its o.k just to walk into my house...NOT ACCEPTABLE at all, it was o.k once every year or so but it's become a regular thing now,not happening!!.We had a great meeting last night at Helen and Brian's and I guess the enemy is having his revenge... I don't know how he has the nerve but as usual he has not had his way for long, there is peace in my house now!Praise God!!

offensive or defensive?

I have just been listening to the wonderful Dr George Simon on you tube, talking about manipulative people and how they were always thought of as scared human beings, unconsciously trying to control others through fear, being defensive, when in fact he shows very clearly that the are being OFFENSIVE, and instinctively we know we are being attacked but un-consciously we react as being attacked but OUTWARDLY don't know it, so that is how they win, we put reason over instinct which would warn us!...It is also the shock that someone would behave that way so I always thought I must have mis-read them, which of course the abusive manipulative person rushes to endorse! It fits in perfectly with their plan after all.The manipulator is on a mission to control us to fight the war with us to be in control, ! Only we don't take part in the battle til too late...oops they have won, us innocents didn't even know we were in a fight, I can't remember his reasoning why we are taken in,probably should read it again!

The mundane, and the Glorius

A Productive day,but only in mundane things like housework,probably which should have been done before!...we are finally settling into a new pattern after all the upheaval of having a new baby in the house.The Scam artist and her husband have finally paid Mike back the loan he got out for them,TWO years ago which puts a nice line under that unpleasant episode...hopefully they are both out of his life, I know they are Christians, or profess to be but showed nothing but bad fruit in all their dealings with Mike and he was badly hurt, and paid a heavy price, but it's over, and I am sorry to say and I know it's not very Christian, but good riddance!!..Sandra said Mikes old flame of sorts was asking a lot of questions about who he was associating with and that he has been riding past hers on the trike!!!so mundane, but nice and comfortable in a reassuring kind of way! so what has God been teaching me over the last week or so...that even if I don't pray in a difficult situation at the time He is still there and honours the prayer we have made before the dramatic desperate times,I suppose I mean when we were in the delivery room and she had been pushing for almost two hours, which should have taken an hour,I didn't pray in that situation,at the time, but God still intervened, and I had asked trusted friends to pray....So He never lets us down He never leaves us or forsakes us!Praise Him! I can't remember if I have mentioned this but we had a great service at a local tiny village church last Sunday taken by the C.M.A, over a dozen people put their hands up to be saved,including a Man who has known Brian and Helen for years and Mike,so Praise God!

2.am and wide awake

Well here I am as usual!2.20am, wide awake and so is Ben...we are both downstairs and he is lying down not doing anything!...he is just staring into thin air, he had a bit of a meltdown yesterday just cos I asked him to feed the fish!..but then he told me later that he was upset because we saw his friend Shaun in town and he has had to leave youth club because he is too old and Ben will be too old on his next birthday, they let Shaun stay until Easter so I hope they will do that for Ben...he said he wasn't able to sleep in bed so wrote it all down on his mobile and the deleted it...A bit like me writing a letter to Jon his dad and then ripping it up!its very catharatic I am writing this on my new iPad and can type faster than on my laptop..it's definitely easier than my other tablet!

Our Miracle Baby

Ellie-May is here and though she is such a small scrap of a Human being, she is making her presence felt!!, poor Mum and Dad looking shatterd yesterday,as with all Babies! Daisy was telling me that she was taking the Pill when she got pregnant...and with the Peadiatritian waiting to resucitate her with oxygen, they were expecting the worst, (to whisk her way to the special care Baby unit)..BUT GOD HAD OTHER PLANS!,She was delivered onto her mummys chest coughed a few times and cleared her own mucus from her throat! NO OXYGEN NEEDED,NO RESUCITATION NEEDED! Praise God from who all Blessing flow! Pastor Emmanuel has given me some Bible verses to read over Her, Luke 1 verse v 80, and Luke 2 verse 40, which both say " And the child grew and waxed strong in Spirit, and was in the Desert till the day of his showing unto Isreal" (the desert means Gods preparing of the child to do his work)) Luke 2 verse 40 is " And the child grew and waxed Strong, filled with wisdom, and the favour of God was upon him"!!We alredy know she is strong! and We know God NEVER lies so we know she will have wisdom,AND THAT THE FAVOUR OF GOD IS UPON HER!!Hallelujah

Safe delivery,Praise the Lord

Ellie May is safely delivered,and Home here! Praise the Lord Helen and Brian were Praying for a safe delivery,and even though she was not getting enough oxygen during the birth,she went pink almost immediately, a truly Miracle Baby praise the Lord!!..

Babies and behaviour

Poor Daisy has been sick all night,vomitting and the runs,the Baby is due on tuesday! but babies very rarely come when the are supposed to ,on the due date anyway!bit of a disasterous walk for me and the dogs yesterday!!, the tiny Yorkie Spike got out of his collar and ran off,not in front of traffic thank goodness,Ben dropped Gizmo's lead she ran up the road and had a fight with two Labrador's who were guide dogs for Blind people!!!...,Nipper had a fit, foaming at the mouth, and lying down...the best behaved one was the 13 week old Husky Suki...no riotous hysterical barking, no pulling just a few stops to sniff new smells....a pleasure to walk, and only his second street walk! What is Gods lesson to me in this,i treat all the dogs the same and yet some of them still behave badly...original sin? i am not sure,are we all inherently Evil,are we born bad...bad breeding...i just dont know will have to ponder this a bit longer!
