Praise Him

Father, I thank you for your continuous favor in my life.  Today, I praise you.  You have brought me help, hope, healing and restoration and I want to tell people.

I specifically want to thank you that your promises in the Bible have spoken directly to my spirit and that your words have proven to be true.  In Jesus' precious name. Amen.

Psalm 66:16-20 "Come and listen all you who fear God; let me tell you what He has done for ME..."

* I used to live in the above house.  I was a workaholic and this was my house.  However, it was not a home.  After Max passed, I decided to let it go.  There was no love inside.  One of the best decisions I ever made.

Psalm 18:19-20  "He brought me out into a spacious place; he rescued me because he delighted in ME..."

*  This is my front yard.  I set my alarm on my days off to take photos of His lovely sun-gifts. Although the seasons change, I don't have to cut the grass, rake the leaves or shovel the snow.  YAY

Jeremiah 14:13 "...Indeed, I will give you lasting peace in this place."

* This is me relaxing on the beach.  I can just walk out front w/my lawn chair or plant my bottom on the sand and just be.  No plans...no stress...no cell phone...no meetings...and no glock 19...Lol

I just sit in the sun with my journal and pen...waiting to be inspired by "someone or something..."

Yes Lord, for that, I praise you!

Love for a great day!

Happy Sunday Miz :-)

Funny...when i decided to move, i thought i'd sell most of my stuff and give the rest away. One thing i would not part with was my outdoor water fountain. I paid $600 for it and it was my bliss. I have a thing for water...Lol

I bought it with me to the beach and use it as a rock garden in my foyer. My guest have to bring a rock when they come to visit and put their names on them.

I surely don't need to plug in the fountain, but I still refuse to part with it. Lol

I have been blessed beyond measure and I can hear Him saying, "Sweet child, you ain't seen nothing yet."

Love and prayers

There is something wondrous beyond compare about taking in the vastness of Nature & to acknowledge God's handiwork. Isn't His garden absolutely beautiful? It replenishes the soul... and sets us free from every chain once tethered to our spirits.

More than lucky... YOU ARE BLESSED!


Snatch JOY!

One.

Happy Sunday Moanerplicity,

You are correct in every sense. My soul has finally found its resting place and yes...His garden is magnificent.

Free at last, free at last...thank God Almighty, my spirit is free at last.

He has no favorites...His blessings extend to ALL who seek Him.

Love for a great day!

Isn't it amazing when we part from certain things only true freedom and peace await us. As you know I am very happy for you. But I am jealous (lol) of your front yard.

This view!

Oh the view of God's awesome creation. I can hear God whispering to you every morning "enjoy it -this is all for you my princess"

Very happy for you. Keep the pictures coming.

Sweet Myriam....I love your response. Reading it just gave me an ephiphany for another post. I'll do that one on Sunday.

I love how what God has for you is for you! You got the husband and new baby and I got "that" view.

In due time...as the seasons change...you'll get a "view" and I'll get a "husband."

*Notice I didn't say baby??? Lol

Love you much!

YES & YES
"...Though it linger, wait for it; it will certainly come and will not delay" Hab. 2:3

I am very, very thankful for his blessings. Never thought I would have another baby (well because there was no husband) and I have always wanted at least 4.

We trust & believe God for your turn. Hes faithful.

Grace & peace
