Grown in Faith

I put my hope, in His plans I know He cares, I’m in His hands When fear seeps in, He’ll cast out doubt Reminding me, what His love’s about I’ll keep Him with me, as I travel along He is my hope, He keeps me strong He watches over me, His love I find He…

I have been extra conscious about the food I eat recently. It is amazing how much added things are in our food and not necessary. Many of the labels make things sound organic, but their only advertising half-truths. For often when you read the label, most contain bioengineered food ingredients. Don’t ever be afraid to…

I had gotten my husband hockey tickets for Christmas. I had been wanting to take him to a game for some time. Though our team did not play their best, we still had a good time. It was a fun date night and something we had never experienced together before. When the game was over…

The snow is falling outside our window, there is a cool breeze making the pine trees sway and the roads are covered with white. Though it is cold and we know not how much snow will fall; it is beautiful as it dances, as it falls from the sky. Though it is much easier to…

My husband and I spent the day yesterday snuggled up in blankets, spending time with God, watching a fun show and simply resting. We did not leave the house and we did not make ourselves adhere to any specific agenda. We simply were just living in the moment and enjoying each other’s company. It was…
