Celebrating Miracles on a PINK SATURDAY!!!

This week we celebrate the miracles of God. His grace, mercy and love for us has touched mnay of us in ways often difficult to put in words. Musicians, artists, novelists and poets seem to best say it for others. Last night I attended the Haggart, and Brooks & Dunn outdoor concert. Many of the country songs sing the muse of heartaches and heartbrweaks. Today we celebrate those experiences in our daily lives, which give us the happy results of overcomoing these heartaches and heartbreaks. Today's post is dedicated to Guideposts,  a special miracle of prayer and the PINK SATURDAY bloggers, and all its supporters in the power of prayer and miracles of God.

The miracles of God are forever present in my life. To my sister Vanessa at http://vanessa-stitchesnstuff.blogspot.com/ I owe my life and livelihood. For over a year she housed me , fed me clothed me. and loved and nurtured me . She is a woman of God and has been the true butterfly of my life!

She is my  guardian angel!

The power of prayer is not visible in tangible means...right? NO! You couldn't be more wrong. It can be seen in every sunrise or sunset, in each new baby born, in the sprout of a flower, the return of the first bird and butterflies. The miracle of children to communicae in any language...play! There is the miracle of FAITH. Daring to believe in what YOU decide, an exercise in free will, yet are we truly free? The modern miracles of science assist in the Lord's healing power' every day saving lives, doing transplants, developing vaccines and antibodies, medicine to combat diseases of unknown origin. Yet, is this our design or God's? Who gives us the power to create? Is it innate or  God sent?

Yet in all this glory we still send our youth and other loved one's to war... toc ombat against that which they believe. Breaking commandments, ..."thou shalt not kill,"  "thou shalt not commit adultery,"  "thou shall not lie, nor bear false witness against me," perhaps the greatest of them nearly everyone has broken at least one or two... And then there is the miracle of God's forgiving grace, even if you do not believe..."Forgive them, FATHER, for they  know not what they do!" or do you? Do you "do unto others as ye would have them do unto you," or are you a doer to others as they have done to you?   Do you believe justice is Divine and Forgiveness is mine?

I have travelled a very murky and troubled road since the late '80's.  I have had 4 critical car accidents. Two, each when I was pregnant with my beautiful daughter and  gorgeous son. They are 3 years apart in age. Each time suffering back and neck injuries while in utero, 19 weeks, and 27 weeks pregnant. Go figure,,,,
Each are alive and well, not safe for my son as he is in Afghanistan fighting a useless war.  Yet, he is a miracle of God. I was told he was dead and to prepare for a spontaneous abortion... 23 years later I am proud to be the mother of Lance Corporal Joseph US MARINE! His older sister is a miracle in her own right. She has had to overcome more than any child, first born should ever have to comply with. She is now spreading her wings and learning to trust and believe in herself. She is awesome, smart, pretty, and will be a veternarian one day as she is building her dream.



The loss of a child before you go to the LORD is painful. I lost three babies in utero and know they, as innocents are with the Lord. Yet this could not prepare me for the loss of my own mother at an early age of 62, 21 years ago this past August 24th, she was received in God's kingdom. I rest well in my heart and soul knowing she awaits me. Losing the father of my children was a heartbreak I will never overcome. My childhood sweetheart, first love, and husband of 16 years, and then he strayed. For that I forgave him and set him free unto the Lord. He died early too at 48 of cancer. Then I lost both my grandmothers, and both of my children's paternal grandparents. Lost, well, they are alive in my heart and memories, yet where have they gone. Does it rest  well within their souls? I hope so.

For me, the worst despair is FEAR. I was crippled and paralyzed throughout my diivorces and while fighting for my life at least 4 times critically ill, not including the 2 car accidents while pregnant. Yet I drove on, and I do not mean the car. Faith, Belief, Perseverance, Determination, Inner-drive, and Hope for a better tomorrow when I woke - up kept me alive. I feared being unloved, the dark, being a single mom, feared failure and shut down, not trying so I could not failed. Fear of finances, and where the next $5 bag of groceriews would come from in the '70's and now those same groceries cost $25. Fear of being rejected, not measuring up, being inadequate, dumb, stupid, ugly, fat, and old. Fear of dying I lost a long long time ago. It is now more the fear of being left behind or being one that someone close leaves behind when they enter a higher realm.

Miracles in my life, I have lost count:

• you will never be able to have children... I have 2 natural born
• you cannot go to college you are too poor, I am working on my docotorate degree
• you are fat and will never lose weight, I am smaller than before the birth of children and high school days.
• you have breast cancer, last year first clean baseline
• you have nothing wrong it is all in your head, 6 weeks later a full radical hysterectomy was performed and the docotors apologized for misdiagnosis.
• you broke your back and might not walk right or bear weight, I overcome with weight training and exercise
• you have severe advanced osteoporissis and the skeletal structure of a 90 year old... I was only 48 then. Today without medication but through diet and vitamins my bone density has improved and my mobility stays actyve with physical therapy and exercies.
• I survived being raped. twice, that in itself is a miracle
• I survived an accident this 4th of July that only God and His angels may explain why I am here.
• I survived 5 hospital stays since July 4th, kidney stones, back injuries, and a stoppage of the bowels
• I survived ALL because I believe.
