yay, i have learned a little html, and have made some alterations to my page (see right) :)

it's amazing how seing god's hand, his giving me a clear answer, in even a trivial situation, can make me so sure that he is working in my life. somehow knowing that he is directing my life and seeing it are two different things, and the tiny things make such a difference.
--------
somehow, the more i talk about reality, the more i am able to believe it is real. but what is reality? i keep having dreams where i remember something that happened, but i can't remember if it happened or if it was a dream. then i decide, maybe it really happened. but then i wake up and realize that the dilimma was, in fact, a dream, and the dream that i had decided was real was a dream within my dream. so how do i know i am not dreaming now? often i feel as if i am, and i cannot decide whether something was a dream. or a nightmare. or whether this moment is either.

Keeper, you are my heart and soul, and I want to make life real and beautiful for you, the child I gave life to almost 22 years ago. You were so beautiful then, the most beautiful baby in the world, because you were mine - a physical representation of the love Daddy and I shared, in flesh and blood - and screams! :-)
Each day you become more precious, not just a sweet baby to hold and make me feel good. Today you have purpose in our God far beyond a little baby. You know you have gifts, and you know they are useless - no, worse - dangerous - without the Holy Spirit to operate them through you. These are not things you have learned in the easy times, but that you have allowed God to teach you in the depths of your being. You don't passively live life or let it happen to you. You explore it deeply, and richly, and fully, and with your whole heart. Don't settle for less. I love you.

I don't know WHY i am even attempting to comment after THAT wonder-full/sweet/it can't get any better comment of Miss Brenda's, except for the fact that I become happy when people comment on my blog, and "i love you KEEPER!" and i hope this makes you . . .um, smile a little.

I have those kind of out-of-body "dreams" too! I'm glad to know i'm not the only one, and have you ever heard the song "The Mysic's Dream"? Loreena McKinnett. HEAR IT!
