Six Word Saturday




Here is how it works using six words , describe your life ( or something ) in a phrase.


My life's a joyride - but bumpy

My sister that lives in Ohio and I were talking on the phone about a lot of different things in our life right now. We were being a little silly and I said it sure seems like we are on a ride but then sometimes we get some bumps just to make sure things are going right in our lives. I was reminded of these verses in the Bible.

"Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths."
Proverbs 3:5-6 (NKJV)

God is always there to guide us.


Have a Happy 6WS and a Awesome upcoming wk.

God Bless
Happy 6 Week Saturday.

1. What's your favorite time of the day, and why?



Early morning. I have always been a morning person. I think it's peaceful and I love to watch the sun come up. I can remember as a child my Mom sitting outside on our deck drinking coffee. I don't drink coffee but morning is still great.



2. If health wasn't an issue, what food could you live off of?
TACO BELL , I just love it so much !!!!




3. If you could have one wish granted (besides wishing for more wishes), what would it be?
Wow , that's a tough one. To go to Heaven. I wanta see my babies I lost. There is so many loved ones and friends I would love to see. I'm ready anyday.


4. What's one thing that you get teased about a lot?
When I write or type on the computer , I usually stick my tongue out. It's just a habit but I'm always getting picked on about it. I just usually smile :) and say you wish you could do that. LOL.


5. If you could choose one movie, book, or TV show to spend your life in, which would you pick? What type of character would you be?
I would play the part Meg Ryan plays. I'm not a drinker but I used to be in a relationship with someone who did drugs and I felt like at times I went through something like her. I just love Meg Ryan anyway.





6. If you could have one talent that you don't already have, what would it be?
To sing , I love to sing in the car or when I'm alone cleaning house and everyone is gone which doesn't happen that much. Like my son Ridge says Jam Out !!! He is so funny sometimes.

This may sound sorta silly , but I'm from Ohio and I moved to Nevada in Sept 2007 and I haven't had the chance to go back to visit. I would really just like to go back and spend a couple months. There are so many people I would like to see and spend time with. I also really wanta take the kids to Cedar Point. I love that place. The greatest Roller coasters in the world well , my opinion.

Threads of Hope ~ Lessons 1 & 2




If you are new to this site:
Walking With You is an outreach of Sufficient Grace Ministries, led by Kelly Gerken. We are a group of mothers who have lost a baby or child. We gather together from different places on our journey, each month to share our stories, to encourage, and pray for one another as we walk this path together. Our hope is that you will be comforted when you join us here...and maybe that we can offer some grace for the journey as we look to the Lord for comfort and strength.


This month for Walking With You, we are starting something new. We will be going through the Threads of Hope, Pieces of Joy Bible Study for the next nine weeks. Even if you have not joined us previously, I hope you will join us for this. All are welcome. My prayer is that it will bring hope and much-needed encouragement to hearts that are grieving.

First of all if you don't know me My name is Caroline , I have 4 wonderful children on earth and 2 children that live in Heaven. I lost a little boy on Feb 10th 2006 at 12 wks. Then on Dec 1 , 2007 I lost another child at 8 wks. Both were painful but I know that I'm a much stronger person but still have some very tough moments as it still hurts. I 'm so glad that one day I will get to meet them on that great day when Jesus takes us all home.

Where do I go to find the truth ?

The Bible and I have a great friend that is a nurse. I asked her so many medical questions. Of course I talked my Mom to. She is a great christian lady and knows the Bible well. I prayed to God to help answer my questions.
2 Timothy 3:16-17 - All scripture is from God useful for everything we do. So that anything that comes our way we are equipped for great works.

Psalm 19: 7-10 - Law of the Lord is perfect , more precious than gold and sweeter than Honey.

Where does Life come from ?

Gen 2:7 - God formed us into what we are.

I know that God is giver of life and that God knows what will happen to us even before it happens. He knows how many hairs is on your head.

Why was My Baby to weak to live ?

Reading the Chapter of John 9 : 1 - 11. It was not his parents fault he was just born blind. I feel like this is saying that sometimes God takes us through something difficult just to see how to walk through the storms of life. I can remember something a friend told me after I lost my first child. " Life is hard but God is Good. " Then I didn't understand it or I didn't want to believe it but now I know that God will carry us through any storm in our lives no matter how big or small.

Where is my child now ?

Matthew 19:14
Jesus said, "Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these."

I believe that my children are in Heaven. I believe as soon as we pass from this life we go to heaven. I would have to say that it makes me feel wonderful that God is so good and there is no waiting. He is there for you as much as he is on earth.

I'm not sure how I will be reunited with my children but I have always read they will know who you are and they are the same age as when they left.

Can I ever understand Why ?

I have always tried not to ask Why ?? I know that God knows the reason I was taken down that road. I will admit I wonder but I know that, Trust in God and having Faith will get me through this period in my life. I was very upset but I know that things happen for a reason. I love this verse so well.

Ecclesiastes 11:5 (New International Version)

As you do not know the path of the wind,
or how the body is formed [a] in a mother's womb,
so you cannot understand the work of God,
the Maker of all things.

How can God help me deal with losing my baby ?

Revelation 21:4 (New International Version)
4He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away."

I have always loved this verse and I find comfort when reading it. Once again Trusting God and having faith and knowing that God is always there for us helps a great deal.
