Checkmate.....

Last night I went to church at Plevna and Bro Jerrod got up and begin to tell a story that had helped him.

There were to friends that went to an art museum in Boston or somewhere. The 2 men enjoyed going to museums. Well as they were going through them they came upon the picture above called Checkmate.. As you can see a man is playing Chess with the devil. His soul to be lost. I don't know much about chess but I know that checkmate means the game is over... looks like the devil won... well one man is a great chess player.. He glanced at the picture and said something isn't right as his friend walked away. He kept studying the picture... just something wasn't quite right.. then he seen it!!

The KING still had another move!!! he ran to tell his friend!

this was a great story to me! When all hope looks lost the KING still has another move!

GOD GAVE ME YOU

Ok so I heard this song this week ... I am the type of person that music just helps me a lot to cope with different things that come my way in life... I love music. i love songs that i can relate to.. this song just is great! it speaks how i have felt lately with different trails that have blown our way lately... Tyler truly was God sent for me. He has helped me with so much. Always knows exactly how to handle my emotional self sometimes..lol whether its to hold me and let me cry or at times be firm and help me get a grip of the situation and see all the good that the devil tries to blind you from when things are going wrong.. I'm blessed I know. I am thankful for my marriage and the family God has given me.. Just have a thankful heart today and wanted to share.


God Gave me you by Blake Shelton

I’ve been a walking heartache
I’ve made a mess of me
The person that I’ve been lately
Ain’t who I wanna be

But you stay here right beside me
Watch as the storm goes through
And I need you

[Chorus]
God gave me you for the ups and downs
God gave me you for the days of doubt
For when I think I’ve lost my way
There are no words here left to say, it’s true
God gave me you

[Blake Shelton - Verse 2]
There’s more here than what were seeing
A divine conspiracy
That you, an angel lovely
Could somehow fall for me
You’ll always be love’s great martyr
Ill be the flattered fool
And I need you

[Chorus]
God gave me you for the ups and downs
God gave me you for the days of doubt
For when I think I’ve lost my way
There are no words here left to say, it’s true
God gave me you

[Bridge]
On my own I’m only

Half of what I could be
I can’t do without you
We are stitched together
And what love has tethered
I pray we never undo

[Chorus - Outro]
God gave me you for the ups and downs
God gave me you for the days of doubt
God gave me you for the ups and downs
God gave me you for the days of doubt
For when I think I’ve lost my way
There are no words here left to say, it’s true
God gave me you, gave me you
Gave me you
