Well, I'm moving up in this world, I figured out how to add music to my blog. My reason for doing it is to share songs that have uplifted and encouraged me.

       About 3 years ago, we decided it was time to move a mobile home in beside Steve’s (my husband) parents home and move them into it, (they are 84 & 85) we then moved into their home, so we would be near to help as needed. It’s a nice arrangement with a carport and deck separating the two dwellings.

       All this *Nice Arrangement* took a lot of work!!! At the time we lived about 15 miles away, I came over almost every day for 3 Months, to sort through 30 years worth of stuff, (a good reason to move at least once every decade) get the trailer ready etc. Everyone pitched in and helped, but since we were moving here everyone looked to me for answers to what seemed to be at least 100 questions daily. Meanwhile at my house, things were getting a bit out of hand, there is nothing that can mess up a house quicker, it seems then being *Gone all the time.*

       One day while taking a much needed break from all the moving activities, I took the girls shopping, and I bought myself a music cd. I really enjoy hearing lady singing groups, Steve, declares there is nothing as good as an all male quartet. {big grin} I bought the cd because it was a Lady’s group, and we enjoy *Southern Gospel.* It wasn’t long till I realized the Lord had directed my hand that day, because this cd had several songs that ministered to my weary heart over and over again, and are still precious to me 3 years later.

       I played this particular song almost every evening, until my family begged for mercy! I would get home bone weary, from keeping 10 people busy, painting, sorting, helping convince Grandpa to donate those size 36 pants, (he wears size 46 now) because if he ever could wear that size pants again, we would celebrated by buying him new ones!, and I would listen to this song, and I would be reminded that I could rely on God’s grace, and I would get up the next morning refreshed and ready to go Again!

       I have a brother that is going through a really tough time right now, I’m hoping he’ll stop by and get courage from this song too. Please Pray for him!

I Love You Cecil!
