Hi Kathy!  :-)

Hope everything is goin well for you!  It has been said that it is those times when life seems a little hard......when we feel like giving up......those are the times God is building great character in us.

I once heard Chuck Swindol explain how what happened when he use to temper steel in the machine shop where he used to work.  How when you heat up the steel until it glows.....burning away the impurities of the metal.........then you shove it in water.  The steel will Squeal an awful horrid sound when it is being cooled.  Kind of the same way we humans squeal - wine - cry - when our lives are under pressure.  (It's God trying to get rid of those impurities)  So what happens when we won't let them go?  Back into the fire my friend!

Interesting point to ponder........

It is hard for me to stay discouraged because I know someone like you who picks up my spirit. God bless you.

Wow, here's another song for you to sing, It's in the key of Eb/G Women sing repeat on each verse. Seek ye first the kingdom of God and his righteousness...And all these things shall be added un to you (sing-ing)Hal -le-lu, Hal-le-lu-jah! Ask and it shall be given un to you, seek and ye shall find, knock and the door shall be opened un to you, (sing-ing) Hal-le-lu, Hal-le-lu-Jah! Man shall not live on bread alone, but by every word, that proceeds from the mouth of God, (sing-ing) Hal-le-lu, Hal-le-lu-Jah!   it's based on Matthew 4:4 and 7:7  its a slow beautiful song. Have a great weekend! http://www.community.adlandpro.com/go/tmobil8/mywebpage.aspx
