So, It has been a while since I have written anything on this.
I am alive and well!
I could come up with a million excuses for why I have not written,
but I won't.
I would tell you many stories, of the good and bad days;
But that would be a lot.
I could tell you all that God has been teaching and opening my eyes;
And I will.
But, what I have experience during the last few weeks (while neglecting my blog) is something too sweet to be cluttered with all of those things at this moment.
I am sure I will eventually get caught up, somehow; but at this moment I am filled with the joy of a simple truth.
"I will exalt you, my God the King;
I will praise your name for ever and ever.
Every day I will praise you
and extol your name for ever and ever.
Every day I will praise you
and extol your name for ever and ever.
Great is the Lord and most worthy of praise;
his greatness no one can fathom.
One generation commends your works to another;
they tell of your mighty acts.
They speak of the glorious splendor of your majesty—
and I will meditate on your wonderful works.[b]
They tell of the power of your awesome works—
and I will proclaim your great deeds.
They celebrate your abundant goodness
and joyfully sing of your righteousness.

The Lord is gracious and compassionate,
slow to anger and rich in love.
slow to anger and rich in love.
The Lord is good to all;
he has compassion on all he has made.
All your works praise you, Lord;
your faithful people extol you.
They tell of the glory of your kingdom
and speak of your might,
so that all people may know of your mighty acts
and the glorious splendor of your kingdom.
Your kingdom is an everlasting kingdom,
and your dominion endures through all generations."- PSALM 145:1-13

Sweet grace.
So many ways the Lord has poured grace upon grace to me.
Grace: this thing so undeserved.
God has shown me His love and goodness to me in so many ways.
He has given me given me laughter, when discouraged; sleep, when I was tired; His Word, when I was hungry; eyes, when I had no wisdom to see; and love, when I knew none.
He has given me all I needed, and still he delights in blessing His children with those sort of gifts!
Gifts I do not deserve. Gifts I do not need. Gifts that show me love. Gifts of goodness, mercy and love!
These are gifts of the goodness of the Lord, that fill me up with joy.
And they can be so simple, yet, as the Lord knows my heart, He knows how to bless is so well!
Here are a few of those sweet gifts, and moments that were captured in part :)
Enjoy!
