There is a Time for Every Season Under Heaven. Ecclesiastes 3:1

As the years have gathered my days, I've grown. I have come to a point in my life where I truly enjoy God! I let Him love me and I love Him back! I let Him comfort me and I then go and comfort others. I don't blame God any more but, I see Him in everything! The journey IS life, we will never arrive as long as we walk on this earth so I've learned to see each day, each moment as a chapter in my life's journal whether it be a great day or a dark season, God is in it with me.

I'm also aware that the enemy is always prowling about with one mission in mind, to rob me of my joy and to get me to doubt God. There are times when I lend ear to the whispered lies and I become ensnared. Not for the long lengths of time as when I was younger and thought God was responsible for pain and suffering. I've grown in the grace and knowledge of my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and I find myself falling much less and for shorter periods of time. That's because I read God's Word each day and I have a personal relationship with Him!

I have struggled with worthlessness because of the things that happened to me in my life. Growing and healing is a process and He is teaching me about many things that I look forward to sharing! This blog is a place for my thoughts to find their voice! I hope you enjoy visiting here just as if you were going to a friends house.

Jesusdeevah is a name I chose because it reminds me that I am set apart, special, precious and treasured by my Father in Heaven! So much that He sent His only beloved Son, Jesus, to suffer and die for me! Then, on the third day He rose from the grave and conquered sin and death so that I could be with Him forever! The lie is that I'm worthless, the truth is that I am worth dying for!

John 3:16,17... For God so loved the world that He gave His only Son so that whosoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life! God did not send His Son into the world to condemn it but to save it!

Special People, Phillis, Lyle and Sue

I've decided that I'm going to do a post every so often that features Special People! You know those people that just make your day because they're just cute, fun, sympathetic, empathedic, friendly, cheerful and just plain nice! I meet those people every so often and this is my way of thanking them for being special and making my day special!
Phyllis
This is Phyllis at the Tree House Restaurant located in the Best Western, Pepper Tree Inn on State Street in Santa Barbara, off the La Cumbra exit from the 101. I liked Phyllis the minute I walked in! Everyone who was coming in or leaving was yelling out, "See ya Phyllis!" or Hey Phyllis, How are you?" and she was calling everyone, Honey and Darlin.... I LOVE PEOPLE LIKE THIS! There she was all done up with every accessory PINK and just looking like a sweetheart!

Lyle before he gave
me a big smile
Problem was though that we didn't get Phyllis as our server! A gentleman walked up to take our order (nice guy), but I wanted Phyllis and I said to this man, "How come we aren't getting her?"  He looked like he couldn't believe I said that but he took our order and he was quiet but nice. Well, later on, Phillis and I were yaking away and I started to joke with the gentleman who's name was Lyle and I got him laughing while I was taking pictures of them for my blog. The first pic of Lyle, he just kind of scoweled at me, then I told him to give me a smile and he did (because I threatened him, haha:). By the time my husband and I left we were all laughing and joking! So I've chosen Phyliss and Lyle as two of my Special People of the week!

Sue from Joann Fabrics
This is Sue. I was out with my BF a few days later and we went to Joann Fabrics in Oxnard, Ca, on Rose Avenue to get some fabric. Usually we are in there forever but we ran so many errands that day that we were tired and getting grumpy. As we checked out, Sue was just a doll! Her smile was from ear to ear and she was soooo funny and nice that we forgot we were tired! The girls in there are really nice but that day we needed Sue because her personal touch and happy spirit made us happy!

Keep your eyes pealed for Special People and don't forget to tell them that you appreciate them! Most people are like dry toast but every so often you have the honor to meet the one's that have jelly on them and they can really change a bad day into a good one if you let them! I adore people like this and I've made it a habit that if I think something nice about someone I try to to tell them. Everyone needs emotional hugs and our attitudes and words can change someone's day from bad or ordinary to exceptional and special just like those Special People do for us!
