“All Around Each Day . . .”

Sunday, April 26th, 2009

We are to be a living testimony of God’s realness . . . first of all to those closest to us and then spreading out to all we meet . . . Growing up I thought going to “Africa” was about the hightest calling one could have . . . now I realize that showing my children how real Jesus\God is is the greatest thing I might ever do . . .

” . . . from sin’s fetters He will free us

Till finally we wear the victor’s crown . . .”

Underneath . . .

Tuesday, April 14th, 2009

Ever read the Book “Evidence Not Seen”  by Darlene Diebler Rose?  Here’s a quote from it . . . Don’t you love it?

“Underneath us, O how easy!
We have not to mount on high,
But to sink into his fullness,
And in trustful weakness lie;
And we find our humbling failures
save us from the strength that harms;
We may fail, but underneath us
Are the everlasting arms.”

The Name of the Game

Monday, April 6th, 2009

I’ve been having fun making bookbags or teddybear bags as some of my children use them to carry their bears around in :) .

I was gonna post pics but I can’t find the little thing to put my camera card in so that I can get it on the computer . . . oh, that seems to be the name of the game around here, Loose It!!!  Game pieces, puzzles pieces, Knex, legos, anything really . . . it’s just hard to keep track of things . . . and so here I go again, asking God to help me find this needle in the haystack .  . . It’s monday so it DOES feel like a haystack . . .
