It is right now Minnesota 42 degrees, rainy, and somewhat dark outside at this 10:00 AM…
Leaves in different hues are all over the street, the yards – beautiful! I love Minnesota Fall!
Duane just came back from a short walk with Tina (our Terrier mix.) He had on a warm duck hunting coat and Tina had her beautiful teal, sparkly sweater…
He’s done working for now and he’s in the shower, headed for bed…
And in our love for this weather, I immediately also started (never ending) thanking God for:
AND THE LIST GOES ON! YES! THE LIST GOES !
Keep a joyful and thankful heart!
Philippians 4:4
Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice!
Matthew 11:8-30
“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”
Growing up in a home without the love for God, an invalid father, heavy financial hardships, and tremendous (sometimes dangerous) discord is always difficult. Add on to that extreme shyness, a feeling of inferiority, and some may think this girl was rejected. But God’s hand was on her and His heart was for her. Today, Ann Marie Turner has performed many great services in Jesus’ name for the love of God and man; and for herself! She has ministered in the male correctional for over ten years. Along with this website, Ann is the author of Joy Stories, Volume One and The Free Incarcerated Man. Writing about the joy of the Lord and the victory that is available for a willing soul is one of Ann’s now greatest joys! Ann’s prayer for you is to overcome by the blood of the Lamb and the word of your testimony. Celebrate the God of the Bible and your personal victories in Christ unceasingly! Revelation 12:11 They overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, they did not love their lives so much as to shrink from death.
