Enjoying life one cup at a time

I know we have a prayer log for requests but no one can actually read them until the blog page is opened up and we don't normally open up the page if we don't see a new post...so here it is. A cousin of two of the women in the local MOPS circle was recently in a tragic car accident. Her 4 month old son was killed and her 4 year old daughter is in the local children's hospital with bleeding on the brain. The mother had a broken pelvis, internal bleeding and bruising in her lungs. She was unaware of the death of her son and the condition of her daughter until days after the accident. The funeral for the baby will be held tomorrow. I'm sure they can use all the prayers we can provide! A memorial fund has been set up to help with funeral expenses. To donate please visit this link . A young friend of mine delivered a baby that was born with water on his brain. The doctors only give him a few months to live. This can't be easy to accept for anyone involved. Also, a friend...

Just as I have loved you, you should love each other. - john 13:34, NLT  

I've mentioned Katie before on my other blog. Actually...she's a follower here at 'Enjoying Life One Cup at a Time'.  I absolutely ADORE her blog (www.imperfectpeople.net)....and today's post was no exception.  I wanted to share it with you guys. (and I hope she doesn't mind) but it was just too powerful NOT to share! God doesn’t work by Karma. Good for good, evil for evil. And I’m thankful because I certainly don’t deserve how good he has been. Everything that happens, good or bad isn’t always just about us. We all search for meaning in life’s circumstances but the real (sometimes hard) truth is... IT’S NOT ABOUT US. God is a lot more important than us .  He loves us no doubt.  But I think he gets a little chuckle watching us trying to make it all about us.  I can’t think of anyone else who was raised from the dead, for whom the calendar changed from BC to AD, or for whom people centuries before his birth (even outside of the bible) predicted hu...

I first watched this video just a few minutes ago, heard the song on the radio for the first time driving home this morning, also just a few minutes ago. I thought this song is a good example of why this blog is in existence. To uplift one another, to give hope and inspire each other.
