Thank You and God Bless!!

 


Thank you friends and family for coming along on this musing and marveling journey the last three and half years. The journey is not over. There is still plenty of musing and marveling to do. But for now, I have come to a place of pause and reflection. As 2023 rolls to its close, I am considering taking a step of faith to put this into a book to be shared with those I love, and those who love (or will love) Jesus!

All along, it has been about using God given stories and random analogies to encourage and inspire, as together we let life point us to our life-giver, Jesus!

And that is my prayer for each of you dear readers...that you may be encouraged, each day, to continue on in this Christ-following journey. Look to Him! Shine for Him! Love Him! Share Him! It is what we are called to do!

For this life is all about serving our Lord and bringing others to the Father's throne of mercy and grace, that place where we all find hope, purpose and peace.

And to each of our precious grand-children, who hopefully will be reading this at some point in your life, to our (so far) Miles, Calvin, Denver, Ebba, Lena, Oliver, April, Marigold, Baby Girl Wiegand, Keziah and baby Wiegand, know that Grandma and Grandpa Wiegand love you dearly. We pray for you every day, that you will each come to know, love and serve your Lord and help to grow His Kingdom! He loves each of you so much and has a special purpose for your life. This world can get crazy at times, but always know that His Word is where Truth is found and that He is the source of true joy! He gifted each of you with special traits and abilities. Use them, for His glory, And remember... we all want to be together in Heaven someday. We thank God for blessing us with each of you (and your wonderful moms and dads). So thankful for each of you; Todd and Nicole, Justin and Kirsten, Brandon and Tess and Brock and Auburn. Now that you all are parents, you likely are starting to understand the deep, abiding love and heartfelt thankfulness we have for each of you. We love you more then you know!

Thank you to all who have encouraged and spoken into my life thus far, especially my dear, loving and supportive husband, Roger. You make me laugh, you are my favorite adventure sharer, and such a pillar of faith. You are my best friend and the love of my life. To my parents and siblings, you all mean so much, more then you know! To my dear friends who are always there for me, know that I appreciate you and are inspired by each of you and your servant hearts for Jesus!

God bless each of you readers, those I know, and those I do not. May the Lord bless your walk! He has a special purpose set aside for each of you in His Kingdom, both here on earth and in the eternal one to come.

There is so much to muse about....
So much to marvel in......

on this Jesus Journey!

Shine on!

Misunderstanding Understanding

  I am musing about...  Misunderstanding Understanding (the understanding of misunderstanding :) ) We all have been involved in misunderstandings; in being misunderstood. It is logical to see how this can happen. We all look at situations according to our  own "story", our personal experiences and our own  interpretation of life. There are times we say something, and it is simply taken "the wrong way". There are times someone says something to us, and we take it "the wrong way". The sad thing is when this misunderstanding goes uncorrected; when it influences behavior, emotions and relationships. That is why good communication is so important. That is why prayer is so needful. Do we pray that God will guide our words and conversations? Do we pray that God will prepare the hearts of those we may plan to speak with regarding a somewhat deep situation? But then there are those spontaneous, if you will, interactions. Those supposedly harmless statements that so...

The Pacemaker of my Heart

  I am musing about.... The Pacemaker. My pacemaker. So I got one. Last Wednesday. Unexpectedly. At the age of 64! I started noticing that I was light headed with standing. Kept an eye on it. My Physician's Assistant son in law checked my B/P. It was great. Standing B/P-was great. Pulse...was low. Quite low. Mmmm.... Kept watching. Labs (thankfully normal). Eventual ER visit. EKG. Found out I had a 2nd degree heart block! (an electrical cardiac issue where-by the electrical impulse system is blocked for some reason, causing a problem with the stimulus for a beat not communicating correctly to the actual heart muscle which is responsible for the contraction) What? When? How? Within 48 hours of discovering this...I have a new friend. A pacemaker inserted for life. To assure that my heart does not get too low relative to this "electrical conduction" problem. "One of those things". Well, I am still processing all of this. Just seems weird. But I am thankful. Thankfu...
