I find myself praying all day for them. The people in the reactors and the volunteers are the real hero's. Not the NFL or people fighting about money. May God bless them and everyone.<br />I think I owe you a post about my Mom and her MS. I talked to my mother and she was happy that people wanted to hear her story, not that it is very exciting (she said that)!! LOL. Do you still want it? I'm sorry I didn't get it to you sooner. <br />xxoo<br />DeborahDeborah https://www.blogger.com/profile/10115126301153092589noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5010952548206164640.post-56627113691913617722011-03-16T21:34:18.274-04:002011-03-16T21:34:18.274-04:00It is good to remember that this is but our tempor...It is good to remember that this is but our temporary home, and God is in control. I am praying for Japan, and that this may be an opportunity for many to seek and find our Savior. In such times, people search for truth. Thank you for the link to Grateful Heart.

This life, this in-between God's original, perfect creation, and His New Heaven and New Earth...is really is just a moment.
