Tonight we have a giveaway for another music cd. This one is new from Kutless. It’s called Alpha Omega. I love the verse printed on the inside of the cd. Well, it’s printed on the back of the cover and booklet containing the lyrics to the songs. I really, really love the King of My […]
Do I?
Do I find Him faithful? Does He keep His Word to me? Do I trust His goodness? in the things that I can’t see? Do I rest upon His Word? Do I kneel to pray? Do I trust His promises? Believe the things they say? Do I anchor down so deep? When life begins to […]
Heard and Valued
There are very few places where the soul is truly safe, where the knowing, the questions, the longings of the soul are welcomed, received, and listened to rather than evaluated, judged, or beaten out of us. ~ Ruth Haley Barton This quote has long been a favorite of mine and I’m pretty sure it’s on […]
Faithfulness Pictured
Psalm 89:8 ~ O Lord God of Heaven’s Armies! Where is there anyone as mighty as you, O Lord? You are entirely faithful. Faithfulness is shown in the changing seasons. Green leaves turn into yellow and gold and red. Faithfully as this earth spins, the cycle of summer and autumn and winter and spring continues. Faithfulness is portrayed by […]
My God Remembers Me
Three things I love. Good books. Beauty. Inspiration. And I love it when all three combine. This #GraceLacedBook, it’s been that for me. This beautiful devotional is divided into seasons. The beginning finds us in the season of Winter, followed by Spring, Summer and ending with Fall. Each season also has a corresponding theme. Winter […]
Beautiful Ordinary Extraordinary Commonplace
I’m beginning to see how the secret ways and deepest mysteries of God and His kingdom are often revealed off the beaten path of organized religion and frequently missed by the too-smart. Sometimes it’s not the professor or preacher leading you to divine truth but the commonplace people God sticks right in front of your […]
We Saved You a Seat
Have you “heard” {a.k.a read my post} me talk about the book Never Unfriended by Lisa-Jo Baker? {If not, you can go right over to this post and check it out.} {You can’t physically check the book out like you would at your local library, BUT you can check out my chit-chat about it.} {Furthermore, your […]
Crossroads and Confidence
I’m standing at the cross roads I look to left, then right. I look right out in front of me. I cast a glance behind. Crossroads mean decisions. Choices must be made. Wisdom and discernment ~ {to firmly} guide my way. Wisdom for direction, to bring answers to the light. Wisdom in my weakness, as […]
All the Afraids
I snuggled a little deeper in my blanket and turned the page. The words and the book spoke inspiration and encouragement to me. Though Christmas was over, I’d begun reading Because of Bethlehem by Max Lucado. As my eyes ran over the page, my heart did a little turn as I read this story. We can […]
Walking Steadfastly, Doing What Is Right
The sun and the dew and the wheat all spun themselves into a glorious combination on this beautiful spring morning. I tried. But as smart as my phone is and as good as the camera contained within is, it could not capture the beauty and shine. I’d been sitting there in my chair under my […]
Bible Journaling Chit-Chat
I’m sharing a bit of my Bible journaling today. I first saw Bible journaling in 2015. I loved the idea and have enjoyed following some accounts on Instagram who share their art and Bible pages. It inspired me to give it a try here and there. I’ve done a variety of things. Handlettering has […]
Life Will Not Always Be As It Is Today
Life will not always be as it is today. ~ I read this quote a few years ago and it lingers in my mind. A reminder that resonates with me often. It applies well to all the days. On the hard days ~ they won’t last forever. On the discouraging days ~ another day will […]
Who Can Create Like Our God?
Who could paint a more glorious, more perfect blue-of-a-background? Who could create giant mountains topped with crags and ice and snow and then turn around and form delicate buds with petals bunched inside waiting to burst open and announce springtime in all its bright and glorious array? Who could add brown bulbs that look lifeless […]
Liberated by the Light
So tired of intimidated, I want to bathe in liberated. And live in Christ, for I am free. Free indeed. These devil’s lies wrapped around me, They’re false. So wrong entirely. Their choking hold I’ve been so fooled. Not anymore. I’m who my Jesus says I am, Redemption’s plan. From Great I Am. For me, […]
Yarn Along {Sweater Wreath and The Daily Grace Co.}
A quick look at colorful knits! I finished two plummy-raspberry colored dishcloths. When I spied this bright ball of variegated yarn in the bag, as I dug through it, I had to grab it and all its cheerfulness. I have a start on a bright, cheery dishcloth! All tucked up nice and neat in a […]
Yarn Along {Craving Connection}
I’ve been using ends and small amounts of my cotton yarn for dishcloths to make these fun raggy-taggy pom-poms. I thought it might make a fun, quirky wreath. The other evening I used all the ones I had and started the wreath. Now back to pom-pomming to have enough to finish it out! I want […]
