Isaiah 55:8-9
"For My thoughts are not your thoughts
neither are your ways My ways,"
declares the Lord.
"As the heavens are higher than the earth,
so are My ways higher than your ways
and My thoughts than you thoughts."
neither are your ways My ways,"
declares the Lord.
"As the heavens are higher than the earth,
so are My ways higher than your ways
and My thoughts than you thoughts."
Psalm 127:3-5
Sons are a heritage from the Lord,
children are a reward from Him.
Like arrows in the hands of a warrior
are sons born in one's youth.
Blessed is the man
whose quiver is full of them.
They will not be put to shame
when they contend with their
enemies in the gate.

My 54th Birthday with Kong
9 June 2014
I celebrated my 54th birthday with Kong at 494, giving thanks to God for blessing me through Kong.
At 98 years, his time on earth may be nearing an end but we thank God for His promises in the Bible that all the days ordained for Kong were written in His book before one of them came to be (from Psalm 139:16) and that Kong's times are in God's hands (Psalm 31:15).
I noted that Kong's right lower shin had a flesh-coloured narrow crepe bandage wrapped around it. The maids said that he had injured it while thrashing in bed and crying out in fear last night during a nightmare at about 2 or 3am. He had a second nightmare at about 6am.
Prayed Psalm 91 aloud from my Bible as well as Psalm 23 and Psalm 139:16.
God bless and protect Kong in sleep.

Visit to Kong
28 Feb 2014
Yesterday I visited Kong and he said, "I haven't seen you in a long time!"
I wish I could spend more time with him instead of running around doing all the things I have to do.
Pray to spend time working on his memoir, too.
I am comforted knowing that Kong's times are in God's hands. Thanks be to God for healing him of his UTI at Christmas.
Why I was not allowed to be involved in his care after he raised me from the age of 6 months with Grandma, I may never know on this earth because God's ways are higher.
I continue to entrust Kong's care to God.

Memories of 494
20 June 2012
Joshua 4:7 These stones are to be a memorial to the people of Israel forever.
1 Samuel 7:12 Then Samuel took a stone and set it up between Mizpah and Shen. He named it Ebenezer, saying, “Thus far the Lord has helped us.”
Jeremiah 29:11 For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.
Genesis 50:20 You intended to harm me, but God intended it for good to accomplish what is now being done, the saving of many lives.
Romans 8:28 And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love Him, who have been called according to His purpose.
Ephesians 6:10-18 Finally, be strong in the Lord and in His mighty power. 11 Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. 12 For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. 13 Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. 14 Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, 15 and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. 16 In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. 17 Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.
18 And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord’s people.
I couldn't find my blog, At 494, so I started a new one to continue my testimony of God's blessings to our family through The House By The Sea.
