Forgiveness

Ephesians 4:31-32 NIV

Get rid of all bitterness, rage and anger, brawling and slander, along with every form of malice. Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you.

It's been many months since I've had the time or took the time to post on our blog. Sorry about that.

On the last post we were working on our house that we had FINALLY gotten back from the people who had it.
It took us a couple of months to repair ALL the Damage.  That was nightmare after nightmare.

Then our Amazing Real Estate agent, Heidi Sipe, put the sign up on a Tuesday. She told me that she was nailing it to The Cross. Placing it in God's Hands.

PRAISE GOD, by the following  Sunday our house was sold at almost the full asking price. Less than a week on the market!

The closing was a month later.

Our son Trammell,
and I were blessed to be able to get a mortgage loan and along with cash we had left from the sale, were able to purchase the condo we'd been leasing.

I've spent the last 4 months renovating it.  Since our budget is Tiny, to say the least, I've been doing it all myself, except for the flooring.
We were SO Blessed to have a Wonderful family owned business in Pelzer, SC called Custom Touch Flooring  take care of that part. And Ohhh Did they do an AMAZING Job!!!
And the price was the cheapest I have seen Anywhere.

Trammell has done all the Electrical work. Installing lighting/fans and more.
He is So Smart.

I've redone every room but mine.
(Well, I haven't gotten the counter tops or done the back splash for the kitchen or bathrooms and I still need to paint the trime in the entire condo.)
My hope and dream is to get my room done by my 57th birthday which is next Saturday.
I am starting on it today. I did get everything taped up with  painter's tape a couple of nights ago. So at least that's done.☺
I have one week to transform this room into an "Ocean Oasis".
As I renovated the rest of the condo I packed everything in my room, Soooo I have to clear  ALL THAT out before I can even  start painting.
Yep, getting tired just thinking about it.
In my old life, before our new journey began on 12/25/06,
I would have been finished with this entire condo months ago but when you are a Full time Caregiver things take Soooo MUCH LONGER to get done.

LOL I have said a million times during this journey,
"If I only had a few Clones."
Send in the Clones. LOL

Still
PRAISING HIM
In The Storm.

Blessings abound

This time last week I felt as if I were standing at the foot of an enormous mountain with barely enough strength to take the first step.
This Morning, I am still tired But at the same time Energized with a Renewed Strength. A Strength that can only come from our LORD.
HE has touched the Hearts of many and because of that Burdens have been lifted.
Our Taxes on the house have been paid by a Precious Couple who are very dear to our hearts.
Another dear friend paid for the garage door to be replaced and is going to pay to replace the stolen kitchen appliances.
We also have friends who are volunteering there time to help.

GOD IS TRULY BLESSING US.

Of course these are all loans and will have to be repaid but we don't mind for we have no idea What we would be doing  without  these wonderful people who are allowing God to work through them and take care of our financial needs in this house.
Without their generosity we would NEVER be able to do any of this.
GOD IS SOOOO GOOD!!!!

2 Corinthians 9:8 
And God is able to bless you abundantly, so that in all things at all times, having all that you need, you will abound in every good work.

PS We are also looking for a WHEELCHAIR For one of the other families we help.
The seat needs to be 18 inches across.
We are also ALWAYS on the lookout for adult diapers
(Baby Diaper Style, Not pull-ups) sizes large or X-large for David as well as others families we help.
Thank You All For Your Prayers and Support.

Pure Joy

After a Long year and 8 months we Finally got our house back from, I'll put this lightly, very dishonest people.
Along with the relief of getting our home back came the realization of the condition they left it in On Top Of The Fact that the taxes were never paid.
In fact the 2012 taxes were the last taxes paid, by me.
SO we are now in a race against time.  If we Do Not pay the 2013 taxes by the 30th of April the County takes over and prepares to Auction the house off.

I have been working tirelessly, every day for the past two weeks cleaning every inch of this 3 story home, while Trammell stays home caring for David. We have had Peggy, a Volunteer Nurse, come in and care for him a few days so that Trammell can repair things that I have no idea how to fix.
If not for the HELP from FRIENDS, my SISTER and long time FRIEND/REALTOR, I have NO idea what we would have done.
We have NO Money for repairs or replacing stolen items, so this is
TRULY A MIRACLE
and a
Labor of LOVE
that is taking place.

God Continues to Carry our family through Every Single Second of this Nightmare we have lived through during these 8 years and 3 months of our Journey.
Our only hope is that when people look at us
CHRIST Is Who they SEE.

MAY HIS GLORY SHINE
In ALL That we Do.

James1:2
Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds,

A Long Road

Please keep us in Prayer as we are STILL Dealing with this NIGHTMARE about our home.

We Finally, after a year and 8 months, got it back in my name BUT the people Wouldn't move out.
So Monday a week ago they were served with an Eviction Notice.
UNBELIEVABLY  they asked for a "Hearing???" about the eviction, knowing full well it won't help them. We figure, for some reason, these people just want to cause us more hardship.

It was a Miracle that the Hearing was cancelled Tuesday to the weather. But it has been rescheduled for this Tuesday the 24th.

They moved out Sunday BUT it appears they may have taken  ALL THE KITCHEN APPLIANCES!

I was at work (I'm working one to two days a week for milk & diaper money) when the neighbors from both sides of the house began calling and leaving me messages to let me know what was going on.
I took a break and ran to the back to check my phone messages and call neighbors to help get in contacted with Greenville County Sheriff's Department who sent 2 Deputies over.  They told the people to put the appliances  back in the house BUT neighbors called back later to tell me that as soon as the Deputies left those people left with our appliances anyway, paying no attention to the orders of authority.
We fear for what they may have done to our home.
But we will turn it ALL over to the Authorities next week and let them handle it.  Believe me, I have ENOUGH on my plate  already.

The attorney says that "legally"  we can't go over to OUR OWN HOUSE and change the locks til AFTER the Hearing that these people have asked for.
IT IS SOOOO UNBELIEVABLE What our Laws Allow Criminals to do to innocent people.
Please continue to keep our family In Your Prayers.

Even after all this, I hold no anger. I hold no bitterness.
I just want to see an end to this part of our family's nightmare.
I only want to do as Christ has taught us to do.

Ephesians 4:32 - And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you.

Everyone is exhausted.

It's as if the month of December has a switch that turns everyone's life on to
FAST FORWARD.

Life becomes busier, more hectic, more rushed, more chaotic.
Cramming events, activities, shopping, longer work hours, parties, family gathering, school and Church programs, making CHRISTmas crafts, mailing out cards and letters, holiday baking, surprising others and Helping those in need
ALL IN TO ONE MONTH.

WHY?

On This Day,
I Promise to treat                                         EVERY MONTH  like DECEMBER.

I Promise to do something special for someone EVERY MONTH.         

 I Promise to Help someone in Need EVERY MONTH.     

I Promise to buy one gift for next CHRISTmas EVERY MONTH.

I Promise to take my family to special events
EVERY MONTH.
I Promise to do Holiday Baking for my family and others
EVERY MONTH.
I Promise to take my family to Church Services at least once
EVERY MONTH.

I Promise to Spend Time with family and friends EVERY MONTH.

I Promise to send a "hand written" card or letter to a friend and family member EVERY MONTH.

And Most Important,
I Promise to
CELEBRATE
THE BIRTH OF CHRIST
Each And Every Day.

Luke 2:8-14
⁸ And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night.
⁹ And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them: and they were sore afraid.
¹⁰ And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people.
¹¹ For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord.
¹² And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger.
¹³ And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying,
¹⁴ Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.

Our Wish List

For those who are wanting to know how to help our family, here's our "Wish List".

If you know a Caregiver, Please Help him or her in any way you or your organization is able.
You will be as Blessed as they are.

Galatians 6:9
And let us not grow weary of doing good for in due season we will reap, if we do not give up.

Gifts From The Past

As I watched The Santa Claus 2 movie the other night, the part where Scott is giving all the teachers these really great gifts from their past, Toys they enjoyed as children, I thought of how wonderful it would be to do that for those who are in Nursing Homes and those who are bedridden at home.

I always try and find retro replica toys from the 60's and 70's for David for CHRISTmas and Birthday.
He spends hours playing with them.

What a Great project this would be for Church Groups, Sunday School Classes or Youth Groups  this Season.
What a Joy it will be
to bring such Joy to others.

  Hebrews 13:16
Do not forget to do good and to share for with such sacrifices God is well pleased.

A Season Of Helping

I have been helping others for as long as I can remember.
My Mama and Daddy did for as long as I can remember.

It's like breathing.
I was brought up to believe It's just what you do.

I believe with every fiber of my being that we are placed on this earth for
TWO REASONS
and that is

1. To Give our Hearts to CHRIST and Serve HIM.

2. To Help Others

The sooner in life we realize this the sooner our lives begin to make since.
BUT
Be aware,
For that's also when the devil will begin to attack, trick and try to lure you away from the Amazing Plan God has for your life.
Young people, I know this from first hand experience. Don't fall for his tricks.

Stay focused on God.

Stay focused on your Ministry.
Yes, we All Have A Ministry.
It involves serving God and Helping others.

Stay Focused on your Mission.
God will lead you to those HE wants you to help and HE will also lead you to those who are to help you.

               Galatians 6:9
And let us not grow weary of doing good for in due season we will reap, if we do not give up.

We Fall To Our Knees

"What we do with our knees gives evidence of what we believe in our hearts."

Each morning after Trammell and I have Bible Study I fall to my knees, take Trammell by the hand and we Pray.
We've done this his entire life.

This morning I pondered the significance of why we fall to our knees to Pray.  I began to look up Bible verses that talk about this.
Then I ran across this wonderful quote.

"What we do with our knees gives evidence of what we believe in our hearts."

We must have a humble heart.

We must humble ourselves before the LORD.

I Believe when I am falling to my knees to Pray that I am relinquishing Any and All power I may have or rather, Think I may have over my own life to our Father  in Heaven.
I am humbling myself before CHRIST and giving HIM Full Control over me and over all aspects of my life.
Not only that but I am showing Honor and Respect to HIM.

  I guess we should ask ourselves, why would we
NOT fall to our knees to Pray.

This week in our lives is a perfect example of
the Power Of Prayer.
Again we saw
Miracle after Miracle.

As we are Still dealing with our house Nightmare ,Trammell and I had to drive to Columbia Wednesday for me to testify.  We were gone for 12 & 1/2 hours.  We had to have nursing care for David during that time, which, of course we had No money for.
BUT
on Tuesday we received a phone call telling us that the Respite Voucher I had applied for months ago had been approved and that we could begin using the Nursing hours the very next day.
Talk about an ON TIME GOD.

Then on Wednesday as we sat in the Hearing it was truly like David and Goliath as the other side came with two Attorneys and four witnesses and there we were, just Trammell and me.
The only difference was WHO else we had with us. Our LORD.
HE was and is ALL we need.

After an almost 5 hour hearing the verdict came in and we were PRAISING GOD All the way home, even through 5:00 Traffic in Columbia.
God got us safely through THAT too.
HE continues to carry us Safely Through All Things and we Fall to our Knees and
Praise HIS HOLY NAME.

 Ephesians 3:14-16
 "When I think of all this, I fall to my knees and pray to the Father,
the Creator of everything in heaven and on earth.
I pray that from his glorious, unlimited resources he will empower you with inner strength through his Spirit."

SLEEP

Our son Trammell saw a T-shirt online this week that read,
"I Love Sleep
It's like being dead
Without the Commitment"

FUNNY

He read it to me when he saw it because he knew I'd get a kick out of it.
Sleep is a REALLY Big deal to me because of the Lack of it in my life.
As a matter of fact during the  past few days I have been experiencing something that's happened to me once or two a years since our family's Journey began.  Where my body feels like it just wants to shut down. Where I am So Exhausted that my whole body aches.  I whin with every chore I do, every diaper I change.  All I want to do is lay down and SLEEP.
For the past two nights I've managed to get all my night time chores done, get David ready for the night and get in the bed by 8:00.  I am asleep before my head hits the pillow.
I vaguely remember Trammell coming in my room around 12:30 to tell me he checked on David and he's resetting my timer.  I've then been getting up between 2:30 and 3:30 to check on David and change his diaper. He's usually always wet around that time. I check him again around 4:30. Then I'm up to stay between  6 & 7.
These past two nights have been easy nights for me. Catching up on sleep but Trammell is now dragging from picking up the slack.

As any Caregivers knows first hand, you are ON DUTY 24/7/365.
One way to describe it for those who have never been a caregiver for anyone who's  bedridden, is, well, it's like the first few weeks and months when you bring a newborn home.  Yep, but instead of weeks or months, it years.

I started my new job Monday.
I was disappointed to see that I was only getting to work around 18 hours for the entire month. We are is such desperate need of funds just for necessities and with CHRISTmas coming I was in hopes I'd make enough extra to get Trammell and David a nice gift.
But maybe God is telling me they would rather have me here and healthy than to work myself to death.
I know HE Will Work All Things Out For HIS GLORY.
Not going to worry about a thing.

I want to ask that you all be in Prayer this week as Trammell and I have to drive to Columbia for me to testify in one of the cases involving our house Nightmare.
May our LORD'S GLORY Shine in this entire situation. May HIS Will be done. We Give It ALL Over to HIM.

   Isaiah 41:10
The Lord said, "Do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God.  I will strengthen you and help you;  I will uphold you with my righteous right hand."

I Got The Job

We are Still PRAISING GOD. 
I got the job I had Applied for!

This will mean so much to our family. 
We Know
   that God will work out a way for us to have care for David when Trammell can't care for him and I am at work.

We Know
   that our Lord will give Trammell and me the strength and energy to do ALL of this.

We Know
   HE will continue to carry us through.
HE has carried us through
SO MUCH.

We Know
that this is another one of
HIS Amazing BLESSINGS.

James 1:12 “Blessed is the man who perseveres under trial, because when he has stood the test, he will receive the crown of life that God has promised to those who love him.”

The AWESOME Way GOD Works In Our Lives

Friday morning as I stood at the cash register at our local Sam's Store, trying to fight the lump in my throat and the tears begging to be released from my eyes, as I paid for our groceries, realizing as I swiped my debit card, that there would be no money left to pick up my much needed RXs for my thyroid
and my stomach and that our family would be left with only $19 to survive until the 3rd of next month, I could only Pray. 
This was so unlike me to be this emotional over something like this.  I am guessing after being so sick for the previous week I was just worn down.

Month after month, since our  Nightmare began our family has run out of funds about halfway through the month. 
But month after month God has continued to carry us through. We've seen MIRACLE  after MIRACLE unfold. HE has showered us with BLESSING after BLESSING. 
And this day was no exception.
Even though the day got worse for a while, by the end of the day not only did I have my RXs and $100 in our checking account BUT I received a call from the Promotion Company that sends people to give out samples and promote products in all the Sam's stores, asking me to come in for an interview.
An awesome thing was only minutes before the call I was thinking about the application I had filled out for them weeks earlier. I had never heard back.
I thought to myself I would look up the info, get their number and give them a call BUT before I could do that, they called me. 
Our God Is Truly
AN ON TIME GOD!!!

If I get this job, which the gentleman who called said he was almost 100% sure I would, this will mean so much for our family.
I'll have only a 5 minute drive to work.
Trammell will take over caring for David for the 24 hours a week I'll be working.
I know God will give me the strength and energy I need to do this.

PRAISING our LORD FOR HIS CONTINUED BLESSINGS.

            Isaiah 65:24
I will answer them before they even call to me.  While they are still talking about their needs,  I will go ahead and answer their prayers.

Quick  UPDATE -
PRAISING GOD!
I GOT THE JOB!

Abundant Blessings

    This week has been full of Blessings, as are most of our weeks.
    I was Blessed this week to be able to go to a Beauty Salon for the 2nd time in over 2 years.
    Amanda, a dear sweet friend of ours gave me a gift certificate for my birthday, for a wonderful place in Liberty, SC where I spent Thursday morning being pampered.  Another dear sweet friend, who by the way brought several meals over to our family this week, drove me over.
(We only have enough in our budget each month for one tank of gas, so making an extra trip that far was out of the question.)
    Then I was contacted by Tracy, a lady who had called AIMs telling them she had some adult diapers for someone who was in need of them.  They gave her our number. She had given us several cases before. This time she gave us 8 packs of diapers!!! What An Amazing Blessing!! We were down to 2 packs!
Our Lord is Truly
An One Time God!!!

    Then two dear Sweet Friends, Peggy and Ariel came over last night.  Peggy bought 2 pizzas and Trammell made Brownies. We had a wonderful time talking and laughing the evening away.            David really enjoyed his dinner and oh you should have seen his face when I gave him his brownie.  His eyes opened wide in childlike excitement as I placed his dessert plate in front of him.

    I believe of all the many Blessings this week, we are most excited about a phone call we received from the Peace Center in Greenville, SC telling us that Food Network Star, Alton Brown's people and the folks from the Peace Center had read Trammell's story and were so touched and impressed by him that they wanted to invite the two of us to come and see Alton's Live show at the Peace Center this coming Wednesday night. 
    Our seats are right down in the orchestra pit near the stage. Great Seats! PLUS Peggy and Ariel have volunteered to take care of David so that Trammell and I both can go.  PLUS I received birthday money from my sister Friday that will pay for the gas there and back!

     Yes, we were
Truly Blessed This Week.

We know without a doubt that EVERY BLESSING Comes From our LORD JESUS CHRIST and we are Truly Grateful.
     And So Excited to think about what HE has in store for us next week and all the weeks that follow.

2 Corinthians 9:8 ►
    And God is able to bless you abundantly, so that in all things at all times, having all that you need, you will abound in every good work.

   

No Nap Time

First let me say that we are PRAISING GOD because all my test results were Normal!!
AND
Trammell's new doctor says he is not too concerned about the 7 lumps in his lymph nodes but he does want to run more tests in a month if they are still there.

NOW
Over the past few days a couple of friends have asked, when Trammell answered the phone because I was too busy to get to it, if I was taking a nap.  A NAP?
To one Trammell replied,
"A Nap!?" He laughed,
"Do you know my Mom?"

  Although I have gone almost 8 years now with Less than100 nights of SLEEP there is absolutely NO time during our whirlwind days for me to even think about taking a NAP.

  That's why I continue to encourage everyone who knows a Caregiver to PLEASE let them know someone out there cares enough to give them some relief. 
Never Assume that someone else is doing something to help.
   Remember, you could be in their shoes tomorrow.

Matthew 11:28
Then Jesus said, "Come to me, all of you who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest.

Waiting

As I sit here at Greenville Radiology on this chilly Monday morning WAITING to go back for my test I am thinking about how this one test can change my entire life and the life of my family.
How we never know what the next minute will bring.  What the next phone call will bring. What the drive home will bring.
It is for those reasons we must put ALL our faith in our Lord Jesus Christ, for when we hand EVERYTHING Over to HIM there's NO Need to worry.

2 Corinthians 12:10
Now I take limitations in stride, and with good cheer, these limitations that cut me down to size - abuse, accidents, opposition, bad breaks.  I just let Christ take over!  And so the weaker I get, the stronger I become.

Strength For The Journey

Do you know what Total  Exhaustion feels like?

Before our family's Journey began on December 25th, 2006, I only thought I knew what that phase ment.
I had no idea what my body and mind could withstand until this Journey began.
In these 7 years and 9 months, I have been awake,
"On Call" 24/7 every day and night except for 98 nights.
Each of those nights was a gift from someone, Most times Trammell, our Precious son, who took over the cared of David so that I could SLEEP through the night.
That leaves 2,728 NIGHTS that I have cared for him.  A few years of that I was up with him and Trammell right after Trammell was paralyzed and in a wheelchair.
It's All a Labor Of Love.
BUT
My body aches from exhaustion.  It's so hard to function because my mind is sometimes like a fog. And my memory is non-existent.
BUT
Still I carry on.
I know without a doubt that the ONLY Reason I am able to carry on is by
THE GRACE OF OUR
LORD JESUS CHRIST.

There is No Other Way.

HE gives the strength to continue to crawl out of bed all during the night, every night to check on David, change his diapers, bed pads or shirt and calm him when he's scared and confused or having bad dreams.

HE gives me the strength for my feet to hit the floor running at 6:30 each morning and face another NON-STOP, NEVER A DULL MOMENT Day. Day after Day after,  Year after Year.

I, like so many others, dream of a time when life will be Calm,
Peaceful & Restful.

I dream of a time when I will get to lay down at the end of an exhausting day,  close my eyes and go to Sleep, knowing that I don't have to get up until morning.
But I know with all my heart that this Journey we are on is part of GOD'S Plan.
And GOD'S Plan is Always The Best Plan.
When we submit ourselves to GOD'S Plan, HE Will carry us through.
HE Will give us the strength and the courage we need to finish the race. And in those times when we fall and are so exhausted we can't get up
HE lifts us up and carries us in HIS Loving Arms until we are able to walk again.

      Isaiah 40:31
But those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength.  They will soar on wings like eagles;  they will run and not grow weary,  they will walk and not be faint.

THRIVE

There's a song by a group known as "Casting Crowns" entitled "THRIVE" that really speaks to my heart.
Every time I hear that song I feel as if God is speaking directly to me through the lyrics.
We were Not created merely to Survive. 
We were created to THRIVE!
So,
Starting this past week we have begun our new "family plan" called
        CREATED TO THRIVE

For almost 8 years now we have looked at our life as being in
            "Survival Mode"
But as of now we are looking at our lives in a different light.
   We Are Going To
                 "THRIVE"!
That's what God Created Us To Do.
No matter what this world throws at us our LORD CAN AND WILL Lift us up far beyond any of this.
HE HAS OVERCOME THIS WORLD.
HE has a Plan for us and
We will continue to Trust HIM Wholeheartedly.

John 16:33
These things I have spoken unto you, that in Me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.

GOD'S TRAINING CLASS

IThis week has been filled with so many Blessings.
God continues to show us that no matter how bad things get HE is STILL HERE To Carry us through.
I Truly Believe that HE is Training us to Help Others in so many different ways.
We know so much more today than we did 8 years ago.
We know the REAL NEEDS of the disabled, the sick, the home bound and the elderly.
We know the REAL NEEDS of the Poor and the Needy. 
We know how easily a family can become homeless when hardship strikes, while doing everything in their power to keep their loved ones off the streets and out of shelters.
(No, we have not been homeless. There were a couple of times that we were close But GOD sent an Angel on earth to help us.
We have, however, been Blessed to help a couple of families who were.) 

During these almost 8 years we have learned how to REALLY Reach Out and Help Others in ways that we NEVER knew BEFORE we experienced these hardships first-hand.

We know with All our hearts that GOD has a Purpose and a Plan for Everything that happens in our lives.  We know It's HIS way of teaching us how to help others.

What is HE Teaching You in your present circumstances?

Ephesians 3:20
Now all glory to GOD, Who is able, through His mighty power at work within us, to accomplish infinitely more than we might ask or think.

Do You Know What's Scary?

Do you know what's scary?
    The fact that after our rent's been paid, the bills have been paid and our monthly grocery order has been picked up, I have $82 for diapers, milk and other needs and 3/4 of a tank of gas to get my family through til the first week of October.  
No, this is nothing new. 
It happens every month.

Do You Know What's Really Scary?
    The fact that I have to take our precious son for CT Scans Monday morning. And set up a date for him to have a Biopsy,  Knowing that the results of these tests could turn our world Upside Down again.

Do You Know What Would Be The Scariest Thing of all?
    If we were going through these things and ALL the other things we face daily without our LORD JESUS CHRIST.
    I can't begin to imagine how people who are going through these same things without our LORD to lead them, guide them and Carry Them through it, survive.

My Prayer is for those who are lost, hurting and struggling to find their way to The Lord. 
May someone cross their path today, who will  share with them the Love Of JESUS. 
Who will show them that someone cares for them.
Who will let them know that they Are Not Alone.

     2 Corinthians 12:10
Now I take limitations in stride, and with good cheer, these limitations that cut me down to size - abuse, accidents, opposition, bad breaks.  I just let Christ take over!  And so the weaker I get, the stronger I become.

NEEDING VOLUNTEERS TO HELP A LITTLE LADY

Today's blog is a plea for help.
Trammell is heading up a project for an elderly lady who lives in Fairplay, SC.  She desperately needs a wheelchair ramp but has no way to get one built.  We are in search of anyone who would like to VOLUNTEER a DAY or MATERIALS to this MERCY MISSION.
PLEASE pass this on to your Church Groups, Sunday School Classes, Youth Groups or anyone else you think may be willing to HELP.

Hebrews 13:16
Do not forget to do good and to share for with such sacrifices God is well pleased.
