Let it Unfold: Halloween!!

Psalm 121

A song of ascents.

1 I lift up my eyes to the hills—
where does my help come from?

2 My help comes from the LORD,
the Maker of heaven and earth.

3 He will not let your foot slip—
he who watches over you will not slumber;

4 indeed, he who watches over Israel
will neither slumber nor sleep.

5 The LORD watches over you—
the LORD is your shade at your right hand;

6 the sun will not harm you by day,
nor the moon by night.

7 The LORD will keep you from all harm—
he will watch over your life;

8 the LORD will watch over your coming and going
both now and forevermore.

Just Let it Unfold

It is only a tiny rosebud. A flower of God's design; But I cannot unfold the petals With these clumsy hands of mine. The secret of unfolding flowers Is not known to such as I; The flower God opens so sweetly Would in my hands fade and die. If I cannot unfold a rose bud This flower of God's design. Then how can I think I have wisdom To unfold this life of mine? So I'll trust Him for His leading Each moment of every day; And I'll look to Him for His guidance Each step of the pilgram way. For the pathway that lies before me My heavenly Father knows; I'll trust Him to unfold the moments Just as He unfolds the rose. --unknown

Halloween!!

Halloween 2007: Halloween ended up going well and pretty smooth considering I was only 2 1/2 weeks post pardum. Molly was a Geisha girl, Katie was Minnie Mouse, which 2 of her friends were and Little peanut Mandy was a clown. Mandy was great, she didn't cry at all and enjoyed the walk even though it was only 4 or so houses. Katie was totally interested in trick or treating but wasn't impressed at all with the haunted house down the street. Molly was thrilled and loved the haunted house. Quite a difference from last year. They all got so much candy...which is such a temptation for me, since I have been off candy for 4 or 5 months! Pray I have some will power!
