ProjectLifeTuesdayButton

 

Another week has flown by!  And it’s officially summer down here in the south…HOT and humid.  Please join us today at The Mom Creative for more projects!

 

Monday

Memorial Day.  A quiet day at home.  My husband didn’t have off for this holiday, but he put a flag up to honor the brave men and women who sacrificed for our freedom.  We are grateful also for our son and all the troops who are out there now serving our nation.

 

Tuesday

My precious grandson Cole.  He never takes that smile off his face!

Took my grands for a portrait.  Hmm…, we just can’t get enough around here.  The guy was so nice and didn’t say anything when I snuck in this one for myself.

 

Thursday

A beautiful flower in our garden, they get so big so fast!  I love the color purple.

 

Friday

Karli was having a bowl of cereal at Grammy’s.  Say cheese!

 

Saturday

Yes, it’s that time again!

Had a wonderful Sunday dinner with my son and his family. I love seeing him with his daughters.  After being raised in a family of all boys, this shot with his little girl is especially tender!

Flyers, Walkers and Runners…

Soar

 

They will soar…They will run…They will walk.” Isa 40:31

 

Watchman Nee wrote a best-selling book entitled The Normal Christian Life.

Why such a title?

Because only when you understand what’s “normal” in Christian living, will you be able to recognize which season you’re in, evaluate your circumstances accurately, and adjust.

At one point Paul raises a man from the dead; at another point he writes, “We despaired even of life” (2Co 1:8).

The Bible says, “Elijah was a man just like us” (Jas 5:17 NIV). Yet one day he’s calling down fire from heaven, the next day he’s suicidal and in the depth of depression.

Now, you can’t use this as an excuse for spiritual lethargy, but you must be discerning.

Faith doesn’t exempt us from life’s seasons; it just enables us to go through them victoriously.

(by Rick Godwin)

But always remember, your ability to soar comes from God.

If you’re a runner: Thank God you’re still in the race.

If you’re a walker: Keep putting one foot in front of the other.

 

Lord thank you for the grace you provide for us in every season of our lives.  You are so faithful and always so near.  Let my life be one that demonstrates your power.  Be glorified during all the many times life is difficult, and when there is joy unspeakable.  My life is truly in your hands.

My granddaughter Grace and I went to the mall.  She loves to stop at this fountain to throw her pennies in.  She was patiently waiting for me to check all the settings on my camera.

(most of my pictures are SOOC!)

Caught our cat stretching out in our backyard.  He looks like the king of the jungle here!

Took the girls to mall for lunch and play time.  Now, Grammy never leaves home without her camera!

After spending time in the pool the girls were singing a song for me.  I love watching them play together.

Although Cole has two older sisters, he is ALL boy for sure.  Just give him a ball, and he’s ready for fun.

 

Sunday4

My son and my hubby had a crawfish broil for the family and some friends.  Lots of hard work and preparation to cook up those mud bugs, but it sure paid off.  A great day for everyone!

Finally Clean

 

Welcome to

 

wfw-2008

It’s such a joy to be your hostess today!

The purpose of WFW is share God's word (no famous quotes or literature...only the word of God)

In the midst of receiving some disappointing news at St. Jude last week, (changes in my son's scans),  I came upon this devotional that encouraged me so much.  No matter what we may be facing in life, we can rise above the circumstances, and be the “great” men and women the Lord has purposed for us to be. 

The Bible says that Naaman was a “great…man, but a leper.”

Naaman had a problem, a unique one.  In recalling this story Jesus said, “Many lepers were in Israel in the time of Elisha the prophet, and none of them was cleansed except Naaman” (Lk. 4:27 NKJV).

God was about to make Naaman  a “greater man” through his time of testing. Whenever God is going to take us to another level, He often permits us to get into predicaments without any human solutions.

When He wants us to have greater influence, He often permits us to face greater challenges.

Before you can be exceptional, you must first work to develop a faith that can believe God for the impossible, and trust what He says regardless of the odds.

We must stop focusing on the problem and start focusing on God.

In the face of all the odds, Naaman believed God, and received his miracle. How about you?  (By Rick Godwin)

Took this picture after church on Sunday.  My grand-daughter just loved her new hat and wanted to model it for me.  She is so much fun to photograph.  She told  me, “Grammy you can take two pictures…no more, even if they are blurry!”
