MAKE ME LIKE CHRIST

Dear Father,

Using my time to discover more about myself,
Trying to understand the inner workings of my soul,
Dwelling on my weaknesses
and my need for transformation,
Is an exercise in futility.
Spending my time in discovering more about You,
ALL Your wonderful attributes,
ALL Your wonderful names,
ALL of YOU
Assuredly produces by Your Holy Spirit
The needed transformation in my life.
Make me like Christ is my prayer, Lord.

Amen

Klaus, Renate and Peter at their last visit So glad Renate was able to visit for a few weeks before Peter died.  Karl immigrated to Canada in 1950, settling in Winnipeg, Manitoba, and Martha and the children followed later.

Here are some facts about the Province of Alberta, part of western Canada, where we've lived for 37 years! Thanks to Doris for this lovely winter scene! Didn't have my own! It's winter here now but we do get the four seasons and they are beautiful. Love this photo - thanks Evi! The days are getting longer and soon we will have spring again! The trees should have green leaves by Mother's Day! Alberta's license plates read, WILD ROSE COUNTRY. Click on the rose to read more about it! Alberta had it's centennial celebrations in September '05! We're still quite young! If a 21 year old had ten bucks to his name in 1905 he could buy 64 hectares - over 150 acres. Of course it had stipulations, but wouldn't that be fantastic nowadays. I'd even pay $1000.00, oh ...
