Random Smiles

I have to tell you about the neat dream I had! I dreamt that I lived next door to John and Diana Hagee. They were the neatest neighbors! Diana gave me the warmest hug in my dream.

Have you been watching Dancing With The Stars? I changed my allegiance to Erin and Maks after seeing her do the swing dance with her long legs and arms!

Oh, by the way, clean the hoses in your car with fabric softener sheets. The mechanic who changed my oil said that a pack rat made a nest in my air filter! To prevent this, he told me to wipe down the entrance hose to the air filter; they dislike the smell . See what you learn at Pile of Smiles!

I helped my daughter with her garage sale when I was in Ca. We prayed that morning and asked God if we could at least make $300. Everything was purchased by Noon that Saturday and our profits totaled $300.20.

I miss my family in San Diego after having over 2 weeks with them and it flew by because we went everywhere! We attended the praise and worship mid-week event at the Rock Church and after praising the Lord for a few hours, the altar was open. I felt led to the prayer minister with a plaid shirt. When he prayed for me, I learned that he is going through the exact same warfare! The Holy Spirit put us together for sure. And going to the zoo, I got so much exercise! I loved watching Susanna's expressions when she saw the giraffes. She loved the ducks in the pond and squealed.

One afternoon, we visited Seaport Village (pictured) with it's beautiful landscaping and little shops. My favorite was Bath Junkie where they mix bath and shower products to your liking. You get to pick from 200 scents. I purchased Frangipane and my daughter chose a combination of citrus scents that she loves. I am enjoying soft skin again and wish we could have a blogger get together spa time . I would wash your feet in this magic so you could be sandal ready for summer! Then I would give you a big hug just like Diana Hagee gave me.

It is a blessing to know you, my fellow bloggers and read your posts and be inspired by your lives. Your friendship is a gift to me. Please know that I continue to pray for your requests believing that God is answering your great needs with His supply. I can't stop thinking about a question my Life Group friends asked me last Friday night: "How is Mary, the person (not the wife, mom, friend, saleswoman)?" I thought long and hard. I am battle weary. I continue to fight with a passion for my family to be protected from this evil spirit that is trying to steal our destiny with manipulation, deceit, and seduction. I have to stand constantly against doubt and fear when it comes to believing for God's protection especially for the innocence of a child. Today I studied Joshua 6 and saw that God gives strategies to win. We are under His blood and trusting in His deliverance and He will get all the glory just like at Jericho.

Thank you for praying for us. I am humbled at your love and support.
