My Quote Listed with Spurgeon, Chambers, Tozer and Piper

By

How interesting! I was searching for a radio spot from Joni Eareckson Tada about my book, “Not By Sight – Ministering to Believers Living with Chronic Illness and Pain.” I came upon this blog of “Great Christian Quotes” on Conviction of the Holy Spirit.

They listed my quote, “If we could CONTROL God, HE would not be God, WE would be God and WE ARE NOT God!” – Sherri L. Connell 

Wow! Look closer! My quote is surrounded by A.W. Tozer, Oswald Chambers, John Piper, Charles Spurgeon and more! Of course, I am certainly not a prolific writer they are, but it was quite a fun surprise!

Not By Sight is available through Where is God Ministries or on Amazon! Check it out!

2013 Connell Christmas Card

Flying HIGH after having an INCREDIBLE Christmas week with family in Wyoming!!

Had such a great time with Wes, Melanie, the boys and Melanie’s sister and kids!

Thank you all for using fragrance free laundry and showering products!! What a beautiful time with all the kids and your sister and family!! Love you all SO much!! And thank you, Deb and Bree for house and pet sitting!!

Wait! I have more news! Wayne and I spent New Year’s Eve with family and friends and not home alone as usual! We had a great time laughing and playing cards! It was SO good to see the people we love again!

Praise God I was able to stay (usually too much chemical fragrance) and enjoy the evening! Been down with fevers and welts in my throat since then, but at least I was able to be there. Thank you everyone!! I have missed you all SO much! It has been WAY too long!

Safari Sherri Explores the Wild Jungle

By

Went to the mall today and bought a new hat! OK so it wasn’t the mall, it was the hospital, but who cares?

I was there for two appointments. There was a dealer there with his racks of junk all over the lobby. Yep, junk (but I like junk). Most of it was marked, “Everything on this rack $6.” 20% was donated to the hospital, so that is cool.

Anyhow, I crept along the rows of wears until I came upon my jungle prize! It was a new leopard hat to go with the jacket and scarf I was already wearing! I didn’t hesitate, but scooped it up like a leopard protecting her cub. What a find! Ooh la la!

I also enjoyed seeing this Beautiful Nativity there. It is life size and spectacular! To top it all off, I had a wonderful surprise! My friends, Barb and Pam and few other gals where there visiting someone.

Wowee! I just pretended that instead of being at a hospital for tests and stuff, I was out shopping, running into friends and enjoying the decorations and music. I can’t tell you the last time I have done anything like this and have missed the whole experience so much!

And, yes there were lots of challenges there, everywhere! But I took them on like a wild leopard, swatting them away with my strong paws and great-big, giant GRRRRAWRRRR!! Don’t mess with Safari Sherri!

Just counting my blessings wherever I can! Even in the midst of doctor appointments, I found some great things to be thankful for!
