Privilege and a blessing
“Thank you for doing all you do my love.” My husband said this to me recently after tending to our home and our children. Though he often tells me this. It always means a lot to hear it. In turn, I am always telling him how much I appreciate all that he does for our…

Slow down and enjoy His beauty
Take a breath and take a break Enjoy all that God hath make Feel the wind, enjoy the trees Watch the ants, hear the bees Play in the snow, sled down a hill Or watch raindrops on your windowsill See the colored leaves beauty to abound Jump in leaf pile, after fallen to the ground…

Cleansed from sin
I recently had to give my dog her bath. She did not enjoy it. Though it was much needed. Even though she hated the water and the soap and the whole process, she was super happy when she was done. She was glad to be clean. She ran around joyfully and looking so much cleaner.…

We cannot do life without God
I cannot do life without God. I just can’t. For when I am sad, He comforts me. When I am afraid, He gives me peace. When I or a loved one is sick, if in His will, He heals. When I am hurting, He brings relief, in His time. When I am out of line,…

Everyday blessings
The seemingly simple things. Like getting up in the morning, opening the curtains and watching the sun shine through the windows. Kids’ Toys scattered around, where fun was had. Your animals greeting you excitedly at the door. Church members welcoming you. Friends to be silly with. Your kids being a little wild, yet in the…

In His hands
I can’t carry a weight that wasn’t meant to be mine Only God can fix things, in His time I can’t hold the world in my hands But God He can, and isn’t that grand That God Himself will carry us through Holding us, and helping us too I was not meant to carry burdens…

Walking with God
There were times where I lost sight of God, but I’m so grateful that he never lost sight of me. I think back to my younger days. I have aways loved God, but there were times where I didn’t walk with Him. I didn’t have a relationship with Him. Love was there, but I didn’t…
