    Last time I wrote about the beach needing a clean up and said it needed to happen. A rubbish free beach is beautiful. Read that some Russian tourists did a clean up. I just hope that it was them and it ended up in the garbage bin and not the ocean. The weather is going to continue to be funny, for awhile. Thanyou for showing the ladies, they still need to be touched. Touch is important. In 2005 God gave me intercession for cancer, along with to bring forth the end of Cancer, he gifted me with remission for the incurable, along with other things, but also learning all the different ways of healing and health. I was also given a wounding in the head too. Everytime I hear about cancer, lukemia, I touch my head wound and remember. I also went to our children in our nation with cancer, to bring forth hope, they are very accepting kids and very giving. Now I am in rest from this, and I remember, the end of Cancer. Most people automatically think of money, or researchers, to solve it, there is another way at present, its called remission until a new way comes forth and it has to, the old way is awful. Remember Hope and bring Hope, the daffodil a flower of Hope. Also my way is not the way of money, doesn't mean I am not generous, I am in another way. I can remember asking for Kenya, it fell on deaf ears and broke my heart, because I was asking for orphans and there was so much selfishness. What they need more than a hand out of money is i a provision, a constant provision, so they can stand on their own two feet, and there is none there, that's what needs to happen, because it brings, yes I am gifted at provision and bringing it forth, however not at this time.

    It will do Leon the world of good to be the "older" one now while Luke is at school. I can already see the difference, he doesn't act as silly anymore. He will come to his own and I think he will develop fast now with his speach and interacting with others. One can't help it, but when the second child grows up with a strong leader like Luke is, it tends to hinder them to find their place. He is a lovely little boy! And really nice to see Lilah more often. This was a happy video, thank you!
