Holding On

  " I am a Mighty God.  Nothing is too difficult for me.  I have chosen to use weak ones like you to accomplish My purposes.  Your weakness is designed to open you up to My Power.  Therefore, do not fear your limitations or measure the day's demands against your strength.  What I require of you is to stay connected to Me, living in trusting dependence on My limitless resources.  When you face unexpected demands, there is no need to panic.  Remember that I AM with you.  Talk with Me, and listen while I talk you through each challenging situation.
   I am not a careless God.  When I allow difficulties to come into your life, I equip you fully to handle them.  Relax in my Presence, trusting in My Strength."
  Luke 1:37; 2 Corinthians 12:9     From Sarah Young

    HELLO!!!!
  I am back to quilting little by little.  I have been through a long journey that is not over yet.  I have more stamina but not alot.  Not like my life was like before this hit me.  No control. But, God, He knew before and now and in the future what it would be like for me and my husband.  Gary is my greatest supporter and greatest believer in who I am.....whom I am becoming.....by faith.....by God's precious grace.

  I have experience more compassion for those who are weak, in pain, sickness or anything like that.  The body can go through very tough things; it is amazing!!   I hope you have been quilting...or sewing....or knitting....crocheting....whatever is your "happy place".   Mine is just that I can walk....I can cook again...clean again.....yes, I still rest and it takes me longer than before....but I can do it....I am alive.....I am getting well....day by day......year by year......
 
  I am sorry my blog looked so ugly with the photos taken off the side....still have to figure all that out....but I will share my grandgals Graduation Quilts soon.....time to load them and quilt them.....so so sew fun!!!

                                                       

Many Quilted Blessings!!   Karen
