TRYING TO CHANGE/FIX EVERYONE

Hi all! You know I've been hesitant to blog lately because I have been doing some soul-searching and have discovered this about myself.

I want peace in this world so much, I have found myself trying to "understand" the many faiths of this world, and to see how I can help fix it.

Bottom line, it's not MINE to fix....................My part is to pray about this war, and blog about everyday life.

What a REVELATION...........

WHAT DOES QURAN SAY ABOUT ISRAEL?

My sister gave me a book of the Quran, and it was destroyed in our hurricane Charley 8/2004
Can anyone tell me what the Quran says about 'ISRAEL'...............?

As most of you know, I am trying to LEARN about TRUE Islamic BELIEVES, AND THEN SEE HOW CLOSE OUR OLD TESTAMENT COMPARES. WHAT I HAVE BEEN TOLD IS IN THE QURAN, IS VERY, VERY SIMILAR TO CHRISTIAN/PROTESTANT/JEWISH BIBLES.

I AM A TRUE BELIEVER , IF YOU SAY IT IS IN THE QURAN, TELL ME WHERE, SO I CAN READ IT. AND I WILL DO THE SAME.................AT LEAST WE WILL BE UNDERSTANDING EACH OTHERS CULTURAL BELIEFS.

WHAT DO YOU THINK? AND THANK YOU ALL FOR INPUTS/COMMENTS.

REMEMBER TO "QUOTE IT" FROM "QURAN". MY HUSBAND AND I WILL BE WATCHING THE MOVIE MOHAMMED THE PROPHET, THIS WEEK NOW THAT THINGS HAVE SETTLED DOWN AND MY SISTER IS IN TUNIS WITH HER HUSBAND.

UPDATE ON MOH!

Moh is in Tunis for medical treatment. While in Libya received an infection when they tried to drain water from his abdominal cancer.

While in Tunis, they are checking his blood/liver to see if the infection spread throughout his body. Moh thought his incision on his stomach was infected, but Dr. said no. So - GOD WILLING - do chemo to see if his tumors will shrink.

Moh feels like concrete is in his stomach. I pray as many of heard my nephew pray: DEAR GOD, YOUR WILL, NOTHING MORE, NOTHING LESS, NOTHING ELSE. AMEN............I HAVE TO CONTINUE TO FOCUS ON THAT PRAYER.

I'M GARDENING & CLEANING HOUSE!!!

Well now that the cancer research for my brother-in-law, Moh, is finished.........I am going to organize and clean my house!! My house is clean but soooo disorganized.

The internet has a WEALTH OF INFORMATION for so many topics, and I could not have helped my sister with this cancer research without it; as well as telephone numbers listed on these sites. I have been totally consumed for about 3 months and can now pay attention to my husband, cook and clean house on a daily basis. HE'S SO HAPPY!, YET WAS SO VERY UNDERSTANDING.

We recycle here in FL. We have separate bins for plastics, tin cans; papers, and glass. The newspapers are not an inconvenience, the inconvenience is the dishonest people and the FEAR OF IDENTITY THEFT. SO, I have to go thru each piece of unwanted mail and advertising, and shred our names/address............ Gosh, remember the days we didn't have to worry about IDENTITY THEFT.

I also transplanted my plants and repotted my rose bush. Dug up weeds in the yard, and took out shells, and rocks that kept our grass from rooting. But it feels great to be outdoors getting all that fresh air. We have orange, lemons and grapefuit trees, and have discovered a few "fruit rats".............grrrr I hate those ugly little critters, plus the diseases they carry. My husband has caught 2 so far in a trap with gauze and peanutbutter, (the gauze snags/traps their teeth) his traps are working.

Mine, not so good........I used a very tall trash can with a swinging lid, so they would fall in, to eat the dog food and little bits of peanut butter, and with the trash can being so tall, they couldn't get out.................well there is nothing in that can, and I thought for sure that would work too, because I set it right under the orange tree branch, where they climb and sit and eat my oranges. Oh well, we will persevere.
