I haven't logged in, in a while because my life has been anything but normal....

Currently I'm in South Carolina, been here since Sunday/Monday (can't really remember) my brother-in-law, Timothy was in a car accident last weekend and is still in critical condition.

Medical Status as of this morning:

Paralyzed from the chest down, pneumonia, bed sores have begun to develop and get infected, he has a blood virus and is on life support and has not woken up.

Family status:
He has two small children by two different women who DO NOT get along. The brother and sister (my niece and nephew) are hardly ever permitted to play together...

My mother in law is in the middle of all this and there is a history of substance abuse by everyone involved (contributed) to the accident.

Prayer Requests:

1) Timothy would wake up and realize that this is NOT the end of his life. His children need him!!
2) Mary (mother) would realize that alcohol will only make things worse
3) The two "melissa's" - kids mom's both named melissa - would grow up and put aside their differences and realize that this is NOT about them!!!
4) That God would cover them with His love and send his spirit of peace!

Ok I know I blogged this but I need to put it in the prayer forum too.

Thanks ya'll! You guys rock!!! ]]> songladyjenn http://bibleforums.org/entry.php/1248-Missing-in-Action Introduction and Table of Contents http://bibleforums.org/entry.php/1079-Introduction-and-Table-of-Contents Mon, 24 Nov 2008 13:56:50 GMT In the introduction to his book Mr Olsen expressed the need for a "both-and" type of theology as opposed to an either-or". At first glance this did not seem to make very much sense. My first thought was WHAT?!?!?!

However something in his introduction caught my attention so I decided to keep reading:
Great Tradition Christianity holds both unity and diversity together. Christians can be and, at their best, are 'of one mind' about the most important matters related to God, but they also contribute richness to that single worldview with their various perspectives. One major goal of this volume is to portray Christian belief in all its glorious harmony and rich diversity.
So feel free to read along as I tackle this book one chapter at a time....it may take up to a week between postings depending on my schedule with the kids. :)

Through The Storm

To my husband, my love!

In every life a little rain must fall
But what do you do when storm clouds call
just call on me
I'll be there for you




Chorus
Here comes a storm
Let the rains fall down
here come a storm
Throw the windows open wide
Let the lightning flash
Let the thunder roar
you just hold me tight
we will make it all right
Through the storm
through the storm




I know this road ain't easy
I know the journey's long
but I'll be there beside you
together we are strong
just call on me
and I'll carry you
Chorus

I've discovered that being a home school mom has it's ups and downs.....today is a "i'm on the parallel beam and God please don't let me fall off"

I am so behind on my lesson plans due to recent visit from family from out out town (BF has it right - family are like fish - after 3 days they begin to smell) that we are working on linguistics and lit today - busy work so I can get caught up....maybe I should let em watch cartoons......nahhhhhhhh that would be toooo easy.

Oh well gotta go make sure they aren't burning down the kitchen - gotta love lunch and recess . . . .and then I think I'll find myself a nice padded room somewhere..... ]]> songladyjenn http://bibleforums.org/entry.php/1075-November-2008 Another day another blog http://bibleforums.org/entry.php/1074-Another-day-another-blog Tue, 18 Nov 2008 17:09:18 GMT To date I have a blog about the MS150, a blog at I site I administer and now here....I really don't have time for another one but hey why not....
