Perfect start to a Monday morning!!

Encouraging walk and talk time with Rachel...

 and then much needed catching up with Tiena and our Firefly study!

"I pray that God, the source of HOPE, 

will fill you completely with JOY and PEACE because you trust in Him. 

Then you will overflow with confident hope through the power of the Holy Spirit."

Romans 15:13

a month of Sundays- informal: a very long, seemingly endless period of time

It's been a WHOLE MONTH of Sundays since I have worshiped with our church family!

While this isn't a particularly beautiful photograph (just snapping a quick shot of the screen for notes),

my heart was very, very full of JOY to be in this space hearing the Word with these people!!

~Such beautiful creativity found in nature~

I loved getting to use the weed-eater around this stump, while Scott mowed my parents' yard.

I also loved getting caught in a rainstorm just as we finished our task!

"The LORD your God is in your midst, a mighty one who will save;

He will rejoice over you with gladness; He will quiet you with His love; 

He will exult over you with loud singing." 

Zephaniah 3:17

Overwhelmed at the outpouring of love and support for my Mom from our dear people. 

This verse (my very favorite!) is the Verse of the Day on my Bible App.

When the day began, this is not how I anticipated it ending.

I am beyond grateful to be allowed to stay on the other side of this door tonight. 

There aren't enough words to express how thankful I am to have this room available,

and for the brave, selfless health care professionals who are providing excellent care to my Mom.
