WORDS TO LIVE BY


He reached down from on high and took hold of me;
He drew me out of deep waters.
He rescued me from my powerful enemy,
From my foes, who were too strong for me.
They confronted me in the day of my disaster,
But the Lord was my support.
He brought me out into a spacious place;
He rescued me because He delighted in me.

ON MY MIND

This past weekend I was tired! On the way to church Sunday morning I was thinking about how tired I was and the why's and the how's and the where from here's and then this song came on the radio. And I realized I didn't need all the answers. I could simply let go and know that I am secure, I am held, and He's got this!

IN THE GARAGE

I'm not always sure what's going on out here but it seems like there's always something going on.



OUT AND ABOUT

It's been a busy week!

 Sunday we were at church of course.

 Monday evening a friend took me out for coffee and we had a nice long talk and time to pray together. It was so refreshing to spend time together like this. And the Pumpkin Spice coffee was absolutely delicious!

Tuesday evening Michael and I went to my sister's for awhile after dinner. Michael hadn't seen his best friend and cousin for over a week because they had been out of town and was missing him so much. On the way there Michael said "While Jayden was gone I dreamed about him and I prayed 'Lord, bring him him home' and He did!" We stayed pretty late. The kids played and watched movies and the adults talked and played card games.

Wednesday evening we had the usual church dinner, classes/prayer meeting, and adult choir practice. On the way home I stopped at the grocery store for a few things. I was planning to send Amanda in to get the things but she had forgotten to bring shoes along! How one forgets to wear or bring shoes to church is beyond me but that's Amanda.

Friday was errand day with stops at the bank, PetSmart, Game Stop, Sharp Shopper, Goodwill, Kentucky Fried Chicken, Food Lion and my sister's house. 

Saturday Michael spent the day at my sister's house. Austin and Amanda had a church youth activity from 4-8, and while they were there I visited with some friends. After picking up Austin and Amanda we went back up to my sister's to get Michael and stayed there for awhile.
