Oh wow. That does take me back. My teen years were filled with Andrae. We loved him in our Baptist church!

Re: Gabby's

Good Morning everyone! PO, it is good to see you posting!!! I have missed you on here!!!

How is everyone today? I am a bit tired, I wasn't woke up not feeling well, then Ariel woke up crying and it took me awhile to calm her and get her back to sleep then my hubby woke up with his ear hurting awhile, then my dog decided to knock something over in the basement causing a HUGE crash......and on and on and on the night went with no sleep!!! But I am here and alive this morning and that is all that matters!!!

I hope you all have a GREAT day!

Re: Gabby's

I see this is a happening place today!

I have a UTI that has come upon me today suddenly while I am at work. Please pray for me that it will clear up on it's own. After hubby's sickness and doctor visit last week (and 4 prescriptions) I really can't afford to go to the doctor.

Re: Gabby's

Good morning everyone,

Getting babtised was such a wonderful thing for me.


When I was a child I almost drowned and since that time I have had a fear or water going over my face. I knew that I had trust in the Lord, but still the human part of me was terrified of it.

I had talked to my husband about my need to be babtized, and my fear, and come to find out, he also wanted to be babtized. We were still just praying, and had not decided to talk to the pastor. Then at last weeks Sunday Service, the preacher mentioned that anyone that wanted to be babtized should let him know. We did and he filled the babtistry and Sunday night after service we were babtized.

I would love to be able to tell you that I was not afraid. I was so scared, I just knew he would drop me in that water and I would fling my arms out and take a gasp and fill my lungs with water.

It didn't happen like that, but I was afraid. I was able to hold on to my love for God and my faith in Him that nothing would happen, but I was still afraid. I know that fear is from Satan, and I would not let my fright, because of a childhood incident, deter me from this wonderful experience.

I came up feeling renewed and so close to God. I am glad I did it. There were 6 of us and one of them was a 9 yr. old little girl. She had gotten saved 3 weeks ago. The little girl, another woman and I were the only females and we stood there for a moment while I led them in prayer and it felt like we were literally on Holy Ground.

God is so good to us all. I am so in love with my Heavenly father and so glad he called me to be one of His own.

Re: Gabby's

Good morning All...just finished catching up on you all, I have been busy! I bought myself a new laptop for my birthday and I am having a good time getting it all set up. Slowly building what I want on it, and taking off all the stupid stuff they put on it when you buy it. It is a Sony and it is bright red!!! matches the motorcycle!!! It will be the computer that comes with us on our road trips...so its cool that it matches!

Had my overnight company(Malachi) he stayed a couple of nights while taking care of business here in town...we had a wonderful time...it was so good to see him! I am just waiting now to see the whole family, the kids have had to change a lot!

Well all you beautiful people...have a blessed day and stay warm! It seems its cold everywhere...so much for global warming...HA

Beautiful report, Adra. I am happy for you. I know what you mean about the water. I was in a flood in the second grade and am afraid of water myself, yet, not terrified of it.

God bless!!!
