Sweet Summer Night Ride.

Hey There, Kenny and I just got home an hour ago from a long day away. Our day began with Dr's Appts in Canton- 9 am. So off we headed early in the day for a big ride , Dr's were as usual. Blah blah blah, then to breakfast - we were both starving as our blood work was fasting... Any way we headed off to the flower factory, Canton Wholesale and then to Alliance then to Salem ( stopped by BOC , Then to a sweet ladies' home to see her beautiful garden, then to the bank the pool , taught 3 hours of water aerobics, then to get something to eat - still both starving- , then to Pat Catan's and ...... finally home. Pulled in te driveway , only to remember the movies needed returned to Calcutta, and I had forgotten animal food..... Every animal at our house was out of food. So another ride I embarked. ~ just me and the azrek full of merchandise for the Dutch Tulip. A million and one thoughts in my head swirling about this weeks weddings- I needed gas, the radio was enjoyable , night songs with Lisa on WCRF, a few songs later, the window was open 1/2 way and I was praising my night ride to Calcutta and enjoying the time alone with my LORD. How sweet it is to have the window down as you drive through Beaver Creek. The sweet chirping of the tree frogs, the stars are kinda yellowy tonight. The moon looks like Mac the Knife moon, tilted yelowwy and a silhouette of a man. As I wound down toward the river a few little red eyes caught my head lights: a little red fox. Helloooo Rainard the Fox I chimed, he cowered in the tall weeds as I drove past, Up past the high school where Holly went, 4 cars had their trunks open with music playing and head lights shining as a dozen young men played hoops in the night air . On down to town, passing homes of friend's of Hollys so many times I 'd have to take her to or from also while tired and in the dark of night. Where are they now ? How is their family? Are they in college like holl? Are they in love like Hol? Do their folks still live there ? remember the time " she " had to go home at 2 AM because she was so sad with out her mom ? A smile a warm heart the times were so far away form my heart today and yet a million times ten I drove to and from Calcutta, Cheer leading swimming working friends and a gain , football , basketball, cheer leading D I Swimming again , Friends again. In the still of the night as I puttered along rejoicing for the fact my baby is grown. She is a woman now who loves her own life. She is love with a terrific man, she has a good job, grounded in common sense, a very hard worker. She is able to multitask, keep her apartment, cook regular meals and keep up with the "domesticates." She has her own dog to love, and her own car to drive. Seems sort of like yesterday we were traveling to Edison or Stuebinville , Wellsville or some other ville to watch her dive in and swim fast for 40 seconds. Thank you God we were able to be a part of that. What a blessing...... Thank God for her childhood and this time we had to enjoy. It seems long a go and like a good book I read. Oh I remember that story. Nothing but the Blood of Jesus. What can wash away my sin ? What can make me whole again? O! precious is the flow that makes me white as snow, No other fount I know, Nothing but the blood of Jesus. For my pardon this I see. Nothing but the blood of Jesus, For my cleansing this my plea, Nothing but the blood of Jesus. O! precious is the flow that makes me white as snow; No other Fount I know , Nothing but the blood of Jesus. Nothing can for sin atone. Nothing but the blood of Jesus , Naught of good that I have done, Nothing but the blood of Jesus. THIS IS ALL MY HOPE AND PEACE, nothing but the blood of Jesus, THIS IS ALL MY RIGHTEOUSNESS, nothing but the blood of Jesus. Oh precious is the flow that makes me white as snow , no other fount I know , Nothing but the blood of JESUS.

how special , how sweet, how he is , How HE is ....
