Peter's Paradise Pad

I returned from spending a few days, some 800 kilometres north of where I live.
MacKay, far North Queensland was my destination.
My son Peter is now living at Kolunna Resort, 150 metres walk to the ocean.

 I had to be careful parking underneath the coconut palms..
I don't need dents in my car body from falling fruit.

                                A swimming pool welcomes before Peter's front door.

                                No 34= 7     Welcome in the name of the Lord.

                                A ceiling fan whirls to supply all three rooms.

 

Cool comfortable and just the right size.

 

Wild Whistling ducks come begging for breakfast.

Sun sails protect the cars at the shopping centre.

We met a special little boy named HAYDEN.

All dressed in a cow suit. 

For those who don't know. Peter is my second eldest. He had been off work unwell. 

Thank you to the many who prayed for him. I am so grateful!

He is back to his old self and rejoicing....Praise God. 

God Bless you all. 

"He sent His word and healed them, And delivered them from their destruction's." 

(Psalm 107:20)

"Be Happy"

Floods In My Town

Rain fall continues heavy with over 2ooml over 24 hrs.
Highway is cutting off. Semi's can't get through.

Huge shopping center back view.

Shops

The Soccer Oval with club house.

'Albert' Town Park and Skate Park 

And its still rising.

Hubby Ray ventured out to take these this morning.

The main street of town is expecting to go under by this afternoon.

As yet the river at the side of the town has not peeked. 

Everyone is safe.

Psalm 91

Whoever dwells in the shelter of the Most High
will rest in the shadow of the Almighty.
I will say of the LORD, “He is my refuge and my fortress,
my God, in whom I trust.”

Shining * STARS *

You are all shining STARS glowing and twinkling out love.
I take nothing in life for granted and am praising God for all of you.
Know you are special, unique and beloved of the Lord.
It's not what happens to us in life, but how we react in times of adversity.

My Miracle:

*For my son Lee-Joel, that he and  his beautiful wife and son re-unite.

                             Grandson Izaiah and Lee-Joel (works in construction).

1 Corinthians 13:7-8
"LOVE bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.
Love never fails."




*For my son Peter, to gain a beautiful Christian wife.

Peter

(Coach driver to the mines, far north Queensland.)

Proverbs 18:22 

"He who finds a wife finds a good thing,

And obtains favor from the LORD."

Both son's know the Lord. Both are believers in the Word.

ROGERSVILLE, TENNESSEE

There is no place like home and although I only lived and worked in Rogersville for three years, a piece of me remains there.
It is an historical town with quaint antique shops in the old section.
Established in the 1770's, it is one of the oldest towns in Tennessee.
I thought I was in Heaven when I first arrived because everyone was so sweet and kind. Driving on the opposite side of the road  was a little confusing at first, yet no-one lost their patience. They sat and waited, then with a friendly wave, saw me on my way....
It certainly was a learning process.  

This was our home in the woods.

Amid the woodpeckers and squirrels.

It was enchanting to an Ozzie.

At the first sign of snow I ran around with the camera trying to capture all the white magic..

Living in the tropics of Queensland we don't see this in winter.

My church family.

It took a while to find somewhere I felt at home.

But I discovered CROSSROADS was the place to be.

( When you come to that place in your life, and you don't know which way to go. Take the road to the CHRIST )  

Here I soon discovered, acceptance love and friendship with excellent teaching and wonderful singing and music.

About a year after I left, the precious church family came together for this photo. 

They all got together to wave me hello....but a few are missing.

Prima and Zena, where are you??

 

On Roan Mountain.

It's not that far away and my hubby took me there to see it in the snow..

One word...BEAUTIFUL.!!

The staff of Amedisys Home Health.

A lovely group of girls and a pleasure to work with.

Lori our boss is seated on the bottom right with me standing on (R)behind her. 

The best part of this work was everyone belonged to the Lord. 

Much care and love is given out to the Patients. 

 

Crystal and Nancy.

Everyone needs a good friend and mine was and still is, Nancy.

Both registered nurses we attended the same church, shared with each other and prayed together.

Nancy and her hubby John are special folk.

They give out of themselves and nothing is ever too much trouble. 

True Believers.

It Is Written:

And he (JESUS) is the head of the body, the church; he is the beginning and the firstborn from among the dead, so that in everything he might have the supremacy.

For God was pleased to have all his fullness dwell in him, and through him to reconcile to himself all things, whether things on earth or things in heaven, by making peace through his blood, shed on the cross. (Colossians 1:18-20)

Praise His Holy Name.  Amen.
