I have been so busy the past couple of months with my Mother's illness and then her passing, the funeral, and now trying to deal with all the legal matters as well as trying to get her house emptied out. I think I am about ready to disappear into the hills for a week or two. I do not want to see or hear another human being for a while.

Two years last February when my Mom passed............I can surely identify with all of this. Went for a long drive, then fishing, then just closed the door. Two years and counting, and the empty place in my heart is very much still there, but with God's love I get through because I know she is with Him.

God bless you and your family.

Today is my mom's birthday. I will say a special prayer for her. Your post was very touching. Thank you for sharing this.

Jeremiah 33:3 - Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and shew thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not.


May God reveal His Truth to all of us this day.

"Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit."
​
​
​
Ephesians 6:18​
​
​
As we go on in intercession we may find that our obedience to God is going to cost other people more than we thought. The danger then is to begin to intercede in sympathy with those whom God was gradually lifting to a totally different sphere in answer to our prayers. Whenever we step back from identification with God's interest in others into sympathy with them, the vital connection with God has gone, we have put our sympathy, our consideration for them in the way, and this is a deliberate rebuke to God.
It is impossible to intercede vitally unless we are perfectly sure of God, and the greatest dissipator of our relationship to God is personal sympathy and personal prejudice. Identification is the key to intercession, and whenever we stop being identified with God, it is by sympathy, not by sin. It is not likely that sin will interfere with our relationship to God, but sympathy will, sympathy with ourselves or with others which makes us say - "I will not allow that thing to happen." Instantly we are out of vital connection with God.
Intercession leaves you neither time nor inclination to pray for your own "sad sweet self." The thought of yourself is not kept out, because it is not there to keep out; you are completely and entirely identified with God's interests in other lives.
Discernment is God's call to intercession, never to fault finding.

By Oswald Chambers

Good morning everyone.

Life is simple, but, we insist on complicating it,
by dwelling and acting on our negative thoughts.

Have a great day

Here is an interesting fact that came from wikipedia ..don't know of it's accuracy though..

Across the U.S. border to the south, the Adirondack Mountains in New York State, though sometimes mistakenly included with the Appalachian Mountains, are actually an extension of the Laurentians

really?

didn't know that...I think they are higher though?

I've skied Mount Tremblant and Bromont...( not sure of the spelling here? )

well me too of course...Tremblant quite a few times...my brother and I had a place just before the park...the Lanaudiere region...which is also a higher elevation...Lac Oureau...couple of really nice mountains to ski there as well

St Donat de Montcalm is right in between Lac Oureau and Lac Archambault..I loved that area ... thought I might live there one day, but things change...
