I'm proudly married to my best friend, an active duty US Marine. I'm happily taking care of our homestead and our ever growing entourage of animals. I enjoy writing, reading, cooking, crafting, diy projects, and various outdoor activities. It's all about enjoying the journey of life with my family.

Worship

Last night, I sat in bed reading, studying, and praying. Munchkin was feeling really low as she went to bed. She was really missing her Daddy. She misses talking to him before bed at night, so we cuddled a bit longer. Extra hugs and kisses were in order as well as a nice long back rub. I needed to think of special way to bring her up and remind her that even when Daddy can’t be with her, her Heavenly Father will always be there. This morning, she woke up in a less than pleasant mood (which I had expected…

Blogger Friends School #2 {Sweet Dreams}

My most comfortable place to blog is sitting in bed surrounded by comfy pillows. Sometimes, when the air is cool, I enjoy sitting out on the deck to listen to all of the wildlife and enjoy God’s creation.

Thankfully, I have the Lord on my side and He never gives…

On September 11, 2001, our great nation watched in shock, horror, and disbelief as planes crashed into the Twin Towers, the Pentagon, and into a field. We watched with honor and respect as men and women of all races and religions came together, united, to work for the common goal of picking up the pieces. We rallied together as we grieved for loved ones lost. We raised our flags to show our patriotism… 6 years later… Some of the flags are still flying, but most are put away.

Thankful Thursday

In the 1st chapter of Romans verse 8, Paul wrote, “First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for you all, that your faith is spoken throughout the whole world.” In the blogging world, we have a wonderful opportunity to allow our faith to be spoken throughout the whole world. We are able to lift each other up and pray for one another. We are given the gift of fellowship with other believers. We are given the chance to open our hearts to the will of God as the Holy Spirit uses other bloggers to reach out to us. I…
