I can hardly believe it is the last week in September! Where has the year went? The weather is turning cooler. As I knew it would be cause the fair is coming to town and it is ALWAYS chilly and/or raining the week it is here.
I picked the angel graphic today for several reasons. It seems like there are lots of people in J-land that are having a tough time and could use some prayers. And the other reason is that it reminds me of this book I am reading.
The book is "90 Minutes in Heaven" and it is a true story about a man that died at the scene of a car accident, and then came back to life while still on the scene.
I am only half way through it, but this is an amazing book! (Click on the book graphic to go to Amazon to read more about the book)
See, there is the car accident and when help shows up they pronounce the man dead and go on to help others. A minister shows up and ends up crawling into the managled car to pray for the dead man. This goes against all his Bibical teachings (praying for the dead), but he feels that God is telling him to do this.
While dead Don goes to heaven. He tells all about all that he sees and feels. Then suddenly he is back in his body in the wrecked car. The book tells all about what happened leading up the accident, the accident and this man's journey back to health.
The book is truely amazing and I suggest everyone get it and read it.
On to other things........
I have been working on the look of my journal. Bet you don't notice much, but I have opened another journal to list most all of my links. If you want to check it out there is a link over there to the left, or you can click here. I am still adding to this place so there will be more links to come.
I have also started up the journal for keeping up with all those catalogs that start coming this time of year. To check it out click here. Who knows maybe you will see a catalog that you have never heard of and find the perfect Christmas gift for someone! Stranger things have happened.
And this is probably old news to everyone, but I read this one journal over at These Are The Days of our Lives that is great. She uses the names of different journals to tell a story. It is great, you must go check it out! There is no way I could have come up with an entry like this one.
I am sure most of you have heard about the upcoming J-land awards. If you haven't (and even if you have) Patrick has a journal set up to explain all about it. The "offical" place is the VIVI Awards journal
Also, Vivian is in need of our prayers. Her ex-husband died earlier this week and she just doesn't know how to tell her son or how it will affect him.
Guess that's it for now. Take care. Pick up a copy of the book I mentioned.

Already ordered it from Amazon. Can't wait to read it! Thanks, De
Kathy the book looks very good. I might just pick that up this week. God works in so many ways-what an awesome God we have Ü. I sure wish Florida would start experiencing the fall feel. It still feels like summer here and it's a day away from October *sigh.* I do love the angel you chose for your journal post. Many people are hurting and or very sick in J-land. We need to keep them in our hearts.
I hope you have a terrific Friday and a wonderful weekend Ü.
HUGS, Donna
