My ...You know, you should consider writing a book! My heart is always touched in a special way when I visit your blog!<br /><br />My very best friend passed away the first day of our senior year of high school. Not a great way to begin what's supposed to be your best year of school, but it's amazing how God used that sorrowful event to change many lives! I remember how difficult it was on her when she was going through chemotherapy at such a young age, and I'm sorry that you had to go through that. But I'm so glad that God brings beautiful things out of such difficult times!<br /><br />The KJV is my personal favorite as well... such a beautiful language! But like you, I believe God can and will use any version! I remember a speaker at college saying that if someone were to accept Christ through a NIV then that person has been deceived and is not a child of God. I remember he was never allowed to speak our college again!<br /><br />Thanks for sharing such heartfelt memories with us!<br /><br />StaceyStaceyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15131785065763353445noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-195420667680956627.post-91292536655498203232009-08-19T14:22:42.339-05:002009-08-19T14:22:42.339-05:00Debra,
I so enjoyed reading this. How touching you...Debra,<br />I so enjoyed reading this. How touching your story is and your memories of your senior year. I can well understand why that year is so etched in your heart. So you were a young bride? No wonder you are such a young looking grandmom. Brock is very blessed to have your words of wisdom.<br /><br />I especially appreciate your thoughts on Bible versions. I too prefer the King James Version, but also know that the great God whom we serve can use whatever he wants and He does use other versions in the lives of whomever He chooses. I doubt if He's pleased over the hard nosed attitudes He sees in some of His children over this issue.<br /><br />So happy for you for your 37 and a half years and that He was close by for all of your difficult days! Didn't know you had chemo, but again, so thankful the Lord spared you to be around to bless the rest of your family and us.Maxinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00040368808197747483noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-195420667680956627.post-45112329938502171842009-08-18T15:40:38.789-05:002009-08-18T15:40:38.789-05:00Very nice post...

Such...You were pretty then and you are pretty now!<br /><br />Such a heartfelt post. I remember loneliness as a teenager - what a hard time! I wouldn't go back to High School for anything. So many people think the young have it made. I think being a teenager is terribly hard.<br /><br /> My mother graduated in 1970 and became a mom in 1971. She was 18 years old - just a baby! My father claims that if they divorced today - 39 year after they married - that people would say "I knew it wouldn't last!" :)<br /><br />Have a wonderful week Debra.jhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08547226679311827501noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-195420667680956627.post-47878420560553265802009-08-17T08:22:31.635-05:002009-08-17T08:22:31.635-05:00Hi Debra, its good to walk down memory lane ...Hi Debra, its good to walk down memory lane and reflect onthe years gone by.<br />Such sweet memories..

Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance. Perseverance must finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything.<br />I think - Now you are grandma with wisdom.Grayquillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03118855928142920785noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-195420667680956627.post-86393949039799568622009-08-16T15:17:49.653-05:002009-08-16T15:17:49.653-05:00Your stories of Mr. Wallace and yourself are alway...Your stories of Mr. Wallace and yourself are always so precious and heartwarming. I have also been praying for Brock as he is entering his senior year. I only wish to one day have a husband so loving as yours. I hope you are well. Thanks for an encouraging post. <br />For reference, my favorite version of the Bible is English Standard Version. Not because it's the most accurate, but because of all the Bibles I've had, I have learned and matured the most from it. And the Lord may tell me I'm wrong when I get to Heaven but for now I'm stickin to that!

I "think" King James because it was the one I did all my memory work out of as a young adult. I am just so glad He speaks to us at what ever level we need at the point we are. Yes, HE speaks!!!!!<br />SusanSusanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11360047123820906113noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-195420667680956627.post-16628634618445730012009-08-16T02:30:08.013-05:002009-08-16T02:30:08.013-05:00HI Debra!!
Oh my reading that post almost brought ...HI Debra!!<br />Oh my reading that post almost brought tears to my eyes, God has been watching over you for along time and he certainly had a plan for you and he would be a Big Part of that!!! God is so good and takes care of us long before we begin to serve him. I also got married very young, 9 days after graduating from high school in 1976, and we have been married for 33 years now!!! He is my best friend and my Rock, I don't think I could have survived my senior year with out him!!!!I was raised in a good Christian home, but Really dedicated my Life to God and serving him completely my junior year, so the pressures of high school even in the 70's was tough, peer pressure has been around a very long time!!!!<br />So happy you have lived in a loving peaceful home with a husband who loves you more then you love you!!!!!<br />God is so good and he never fails to make me smile and doubt him.<br />Have a Blessed Sunday<br />God Bless you so much!!!<br />hugs,<br />jamieMimihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06070694544133528430noreply@blogger.com
