Grammy's House/Farm: Hosanna in the Highest!

They brought the colt to Jesus and put their coats on it; and He sat on it. And many spread their coats in the road, and others spread leafy branches which they had cut from the fields. Those who went in front and those who followed were shouting: "Hosanna! BLESSED IS HE WHO COMES IN THE NAME OF THE LORD; Blessed is the coming kingdom of our father David; Hosanna in the highest!"

Forever Changed

In 2005 my daughter in-law died in childbirth. At that time God placed into my care my 5 year old granddaughter and her newborn sister. My son's children, him, the walking wounded. Me, empty nester totally loven my freedom and lack of responsibility. I was so desperate for change, desperate for God. I began to pursue Him, on purpose, with a passion I had never experienced before. It has been an incredible journey, at times all I could do was cry out to God, "God, I can't change my circumstances, change my heart."God IS faithful! He has totally changed me, my heart and my focus. God took the shattered pieces of this clay pot and put them back together in a way that does not look like the other pot. I am forever changed by the refiners fire. It is not easy to take on loving and caring for the motherless, fatherless, poor, sick, homeless and hungry or even the walking wounded of this world (even when they are your own flesh and blood) but it is what pleases the Father's heart and what every believer is called to do.
