My peonies

Tuesday, June 10th, 2008

I used to have three peony bushes. Two of them succumbed to my neighbors poison (long story!) but I still have one huge gorgeous bush. They are blooming this week and I went out to practice my photography skills on them. Aren’t they beautiful? I cut enough to fill a vase and brought them into [...]

Do you ever wonder?

Tuesday, June 10th, 2008

Do you ever wonder how God works things out so perfectly? I often think it’s amazing how things just seemingly “fall into place”. Last fall, I went to a scrapbooking retreat. I arrived early in the afternoon on the first day. There was only one other woman there. She was already set up and scrapping [...]

I’m still here

Monday, June 9th, 2008

I know I haven’t been blogging as much as I was. I have all sorts of things swirling in my head but taking the time to get them posted just isn’t happening right now. May was an incredible month. Very happy, very busy, very stressful. I’m still not quite adjusted and now we have a [...]

Bow The Knee

Sunday, June 8th, 2008

Here’s another excellent song. I’ve listened to it several times tonight while trying to find which version to share here. How uplifting! BOW THE KNEE There are moments on our journey following the Lord Where God illumines ev’ry step we take. There are times when circumstances make perfect sense to us, As we try to [...]

Lord I Need You

Sunday, June 8th, 2008

I played this song for a lady to sing at church today. I sing this chorus many days. I pray this in desperation quite often. It’s so true. “Lord! I need you.” I cannot go through this on my own. Lord I Need You By Ron Hamilton Sometimes when life seems gentle and blessings flood [...]

First Day at Work

Thursday, June 5th, 2008

Lee survived his first day at work! I wasn’t able to speak to him until after 10 p.m. when he got back from school. He said there were points in the day that he was tired, but he did ok and wasn’t very wiped out at night. I told him I was praying for him [...]

How to study a Bible passage

Wednesday, June 4th, 2008

When I was reading Changed Into His Image, I copied this onto a sheet of paper to put into my Bible.  I’ve been meaning to share it here but things have been a bit crazy lately. When you are reading a passage the first thing to ask is, *What does this passage reveal about Jesus [...]

A job!

Tuesday, June 3rd, 2008

A temp agency hired Lee today!! Praise God! His unemployment was a huge burden to him. He is very relieved and thanking God for a job. It’s not high paying so he will keep looking for a better paying job, but it’s much better than nothing. He starts bright and early tomorrow morning. I am [...]

Grizzling

Monday, June 2nd, 2008

Have you ever been grizzly? (Ok! Not this kind of grizzly but I couldn’t resist.) That’s what we call whining and complaining. Lee and I have been struggling with the grizzlies lately. We do not understand why James can’t visit. We don’t know why getting a job has been so difficult. We do not understand [...]
