GIVING THANKS

I just visited linda's blog and read her post on sickle cell and it has moved me to give thanks to God for the journey so far.
live each day with the presence of God's love
taking time to give praise for all his glory
do't allow worldly distractions to influence or take control of your life
rather gain mastery over life so that you may determine all it has in store

utilise God's gift of intellect using your time constructively to enable you to grow, develop and reach great heights in all areas of your life
in all that you embark upon, strive for non-lessthan excellence
believing that you are an expression of the divine love of God and capable of achieving
anything.
surrender all that you are to the creator so that he can reveal all that he desires you to be
lovingly fulfilling your every need......
Today as always i can't give enough thanks to God for giving my family life my husby, my kids and i are all carriers of sickle cell and i pray every minute for all those who have sickle cell anaemia, i know it cant be easy for them and their careers but God sits on the throne. I remember when husby and i started dating and we knew we are both AS, those who found out amongst our friends and family were very encouraging . We cant still understand why we went on to seal the deal to get married i can only say what the lord plans he crosses all ts and dots all i's. Ours is a divine love of GOD, especially now i recall when we were told the twins were about to join our family, i intensified my prayers and God answered my prayers.I pray this disease will one day be put to rest.
To all mothers out there HAPPY MOTHERS DAY and i hope your kids are not like my little missy who is trying so hard to keep a lovely piece of art work she's made for me( i picked her up from nursery andthe art work is face up and i cld see everything) am still playing along for the surprise as she wishes.

Girl that was very brave of you marrying ur husband knowing that you were both carriers. I pray God keeps you and your family under the shadow of his loving wings and in his loving arms each and every day of ur lives.

My hubby is a sickler too and his crisis is managed thankfully by God's grace with loads of pain killers and other strong drugs.
