SnowDEN with the Fam'

HOW TO HELP WHEN SOMEONE IS IN  NEED   I was just inspired today by an amazing woman of whom I have only grown to respect. She has a gift to do the RIGHT thing when someone is hurting. I have known her to send cards, bring little cute gifts and plan with others to help when she knows someone is in need.    This same lady continues to do this as she has been seriously ill (in chemo treatments). Today she put out a need of her own. So simple...but wow!   I understand for those who know us and what we have been facing ourselves the past few years, it seems unusual. But, I feel the Lord has inspired me to just send out this simple outline how to be there for others. I know I will be adding on in the future but here is a basic list.

I remember kneeling down at our couch with my mom and committing my life to Jesus Christ.   I especially remember being water baptized at age 13. Our church d...

FREEDOM FROM THE 'ME' SPIRIT      By Daneille Gray Snowden  The one Step to Happiness & Fortitude is to not be enveloped with continuous thoughts of 'self' . We will have more fortitude which will produce satisfaction: When our life and thoughts are filled with serving our God and others. [PERIOD]   There is a freedom with this perception; to 'push through' the pain because people need us. Because God called us to a great and marvelous work.   The more our mind dwells on past struggles & hurts, on present physical pain as well as the disappointments that lure; the human frame wears down.   But, as we look back on the lives of amazing people who persevered through adverse circumstances and continued to serve with every part of their beings they are the inspiration and fine example to us all.   People such as Susanna Wesley ; who with 19 children (9 passed away)- kept her home, took personal time with each...
