I can't believe I fell for it! I have observed this person's actions many times before. Silly me! Why did I not think that the wrath would eventually flow in my direction? I was completely naïve. I certainly knew better. Who would have thought that I fell for the obvious? Has this ever happened to you? This is precisely what happens when we give people too much credit and let our guards down - even if it's just for a hot second. We have to remember that no one is immune or exempted from unfairness even if you know the hand that throws the blow. Alrighty now - Get with the program. Grow up. Smell the coffee. Remember the scriptural counsel that says it all. "Don’t put your confidence in powerful people; there is no help for you there." (Ps 146:3) They'll disappoint you every time. Trust only in The Lord.

This song, Walk with Me, was one of my Mother’s favorites. Listen to the words! My Mother prior to her death instructed my niece, my daughter, her great- granddaughter and me on which songs she wanted performed at her funeral. What a woman; what a Mother! Selfishly, we never want to let go of our loved ones even when we see the end in sight. It is so unnatural. My Mother wanted a glorious homegoing, and that she received! My Mother also requested us to line up by age and walk into the church on this song. That we did! So as my dear Mother is walking around Heaven this Sunday morning, we all miss her incredibly. She gave us so much to be thankful for; so many memories; so many quotes; so many recipes; so much love...and the admonition to love The Lord and keep him first. “He’ll order your steps sugar. Just turn it over to him.” On this Sunday, I emotionally say as big Buffalo tears enter my eyes and roll down my cheeks, "I miss you Momma, but I as we all do thank you for all that you gave - your everlasting love, your continuous sacrifices, your forever caring, your relentless prayers for us … your everything! Yes, we all miss your walk on this earth, but you left your mark - one that will never be forgotten; one that will be cherished forever!

"I won’t complain" is one of those penetrating songs that fills your soul! Read the lyrics as you listen to the harmony:

I want to thank God

Has been so good to me

He's been good to me

More than this old world or you could ever be.”

The words say it all! Worshiping God in song is a perfect way to show appreciation and thankfulness. There is no better song to do that and express gratitude than “I won’t complain” which is why I say, "Thank you Lord for being so good to me, my children, my grands, my family and dear friends." Happy Sunday and Blessings!
