Cars whiz by outside the window as I distance myself from the noise and try to ignore the drone. Too much noise quickly boggles the nerves.
I pretty much train myself not to complain.
New country,
no sweat.
Conversations hard to understand,
no biggy.
Can't find syrup in the store,
just consentrate and look a little harder.
Being controlled by my own rules is no piece of cake.
Lord, please help me to find Your true Sabbath rest - today and this week.

Dear One,
I pray God's rest will find you. I know so well the need of the soul for such solace. I can't know all that your days have held during this past week, but I hope the coming days will bring you much peace from our Father's hands. Perhaps these lyrics will bless you...
"Jesus, I am resting, resting in the joy of what Thou art.
I am finding out the greatness of Thy loving heart.
Thou hast bid me gaze upon Thee, and Thy beauty fills my soul,
For by Thy transforming power, Thou hast made me whole.
Oh, how great Thy loving kindness—vaster, broader than the sea.
Oh, how marvelous Thy goodness lavished all on me.
Yes, I rest in Thee, Beloved, ‘know what wealth of grace is Thine,
Know Thy certainty of promise, and have made it mine.
Simply trusting Thee, Lord Jesus, I behold Thee as Thou art,
And Thy love—so pure, so changeless—satisfies my heart,
Satisfies its deepest longings, meets, supplies its every need,
Compasseth me ‘round with blessings; Thine is love, indeed.
Ever lift Thy face upon me as I work and wait for Thee.
Resting ‘neath Thy smile, Lord Jesus, earth’s dark shadows flee.
Brightness of my Father’s glory, Sunshine of my Father’s face,
Keep me ever trusting, resting; fill me with Thy grace.
Jesus, I am resting, resting in the joy of what Thou art.
I am finding out the greatness of Thy loving heart."
Blessings to you...
I will pray for you.
I miss you Mrs. Jones! I'll be praying for you! God bless!

Hi all! It's good to hear from you.
Leah, are you blogging yet? I'll have to check up on you! Seems like everyone has temporarily fallen off the face of the earth this summer. Good to know you're still alive! See ya' around!
