One thing C.J. will remember for years to come is to never schedule pictures for a Sunday afternoon. Today started out well. We were late leaving for church but for some reason that is becoming the norm for us lately. C.J. wore the dress that her "Pop" selected and bought for her. She looked really nice in her first foofie dress. Her cousin Breezie had a matching dress and he wanted them to wear them together. Next week they will wear the Easter dresses...compliments of "Pop". The one good thing of this all is that they will be in worship!
This morning Daddy woke up and wanted to start getting his praise on early. So that meant that since C.J. was up she had to get her praise on as well. He played sermon clips of his favorites, E.Dewey Smith and Leroy Elliot. The song of the morning was "All In His Hands" by Varn Micheal McKay. Daddy is living by this creed now, not worrying about anything; the job, finances, school, the economy, nothing.
C.J., Breezie, Brooks and Jaylen looked nice for their pictures. The experience was tiring for all those who went but you have to live and learn sometimes. Mommy, Auntie Milk and C.J. all came back saying never again. While they were out Daddy was out visiting and praying for the sick. When you on the battlefield for the Lord your job is never done. It is a good thing that Daddy is not just a Sunday server.
Daddy and C.J. did not get to watch any basketball games today but will make a date to catch the final four next Saturday. He and C.J. will have a date. Hopefully Daddy's team will continue to win and somehow C.J. will get to see Daddy happy due to athletics this year. Well the Lakers did win it all! Once we arrived home Daddy bathed C.J. and put her in the crib. She does not seem tired but she needs to go to sleep.
So today begins the journey to the cross. Daddy has a lot to reflect upon and will be in deep meditation this week. What is on his mind? God will determine that. So as the week begins and you are settling down when you pray keep Daddy in your prayers. We know that prayer changes things, people and situations. As a gift to all of you I am including the lyrics to, All In His Hands"!

Verse 1
All in His hands,
I put it all in His hands.
(repeat)
All of my burdens, problems
if I have a question;
Chorus
I put it all,
yes, I put it all;
I put it all in His hands.
Vesre 2
Whatever the problem,
I put it all in His hands.
I know that He can solve them,
I put it all in His hands.
Verse 3
This and that,
I put it all in His hands,
He can handle it that's a fact,
I put it all in His hands.
Bridge
No matter how great or small
He's the Master of them all
Chorus
