A calm, restful, and joyful Sunday!

Good Afternoon or whatever is the best greeting to you, in your part of the world!

What a surprise today! Thought we would be greeted again by the wonderful weather we have been receiving for the last tid while. Instead, it is pouring with rain! However, any remaining bits of snow, have now been completely 'washed away'; I can look at it that way! Also, will look forward to a wonderful fire this afternoon!

Embraced the Vision Channel this morning; and it is as if all bittidz 'worries' have been 'washed away!' eg. Hugely appreciated 'Hour of Power'; and the encouraging wisdom given by the two guest speakers, introduced by Dr. Robert Schuller. ie. How you can overcome negative circumstances and negative emotions! NO COINCIDENCES HERE! Gained an epiphany!!! (If you wish, you can refer to my recent posts to validate 'no coincidences!') WOW! Will share a tidbitz re: the two speakers; however, I encourage you to EMPOWER yourselves with 'Seek and Ye Shall Find' Him, and check out Dr. Robert Schuller's website -www.hourofpower.org!!!

On a more personal note, I am glad that Dr. Schuller is inviting some wonderful people to share their 'special' stories, on the 'Hour of Power'. As mentioned in a recent post, my thoughts and Prayers also go to his son, Robert Schuller; and both Alan and I Pray all is well with him. Actually, I will Pray an Intercessary Prayer for them both.

Also 'Enjoying Everyday Life', (Joyce Meyer - www.joycemeyer.org), shows what goes into the well thought out production / major set up / lots behind the scenes / the many happy volunteer spiritual network / awesome teamwork that is involved to put on incredible Joyce Meyer Conferences. WOW! It is good to watch on T.V.; however, when you are actually THERE IN PERSON (Conferences are FREE to attend!), you gain so much more. ie 'A wonderful vacation with God!' One of my future hopes, is to treat my daughter to a 'Mum and daughter vacation'. This would include participating in a Joyce Meyer Conference, as well as combining a 'holiday' in the same warm climate / lcoation! LOL!

'Living Truth' (Charles Price - www.livingtruth.ca) is also excellent; and again, best to check into his insightful teachings for your best understanding. We have all been given 'Gifts'; it is a matter of recognizing them and putting our 'natural' abilities to Spiritual use. Our disabilities and / or weaknesses we need to recognize as benefits as well. We must not be afraid to make mistakes; just keep on trying. Charles is sharing what is needed to make a static Church Effective. ie. Alan eloquently provides a 'gem' TIDBIT - "Our 'Gifts' that are Given to us by Him, are part of a collective; so that all of us can work in unison for His Total Purpose. Which is, to work together in His Church, His Body, to continue to share the Message of the Good News."

Another BITTID 'pearl' from Alan and a thank you to him! - "We should never forget that we are taught and told that He KNEW of us before the beginning of the Foundation of the Universe; and He LOVES us unconditionally in all regards, 'warts and all.' He can use our 'warts' for His Purpose. Also to teach us, to appreciate our weaknesses; which, He can turn into successes, again to Enhance and Grow His Church."

In a bit, I will post pictures of the cultured pearls, that I made tid mention of in my February 20th post of 'Grit and perserverance'.

Speaking of 'grit'; the Canucks displayed 'grit' in their close game last night with the Maple Leafs; with Matts Sundin providing the 'winning goal' in the Overtime Shootout. The shot looked so effortless; Matts, indeed, has been Blessed with a wonderful Gift. Also, he spoke diplomatically of his ex team. Methinks, he provides encouragement and tids of uplift! It is just as important to win graciously.

In all of these interviews in these past weeks, Matt has stated that he chose Vancouver, because he believes it can go deep into the playoffs. He is hopeful that if he decides to play next year, he wants to stay with the Canucks.

Hope you are enjoying a nice R & R Sunday! I LOVE the above photo image; and guess what! I discovered only NOW - 'pearl wilder at hearts door' as the caption beneath the picture. No bit Coincidence whatosever! WOW! Is all I can say or write! LOL! 'Praise Him In ALL Things!'

Peace be with you, and God Bless.
