it was a good day!


This snapshot was captured during the photography session before the wedding by my sweet sentimental husband aka.. father of the groom.  We've been a little busier than usual.  Our oldest son got married to a jewel of a young lady!  We are so happy for them!!

Ahh, we get to enjoy such a lovely season of life.  At the time of this post, our son has been married for a whole month now!  I've paused much of my handwork and quieted myself before the LORD.

We need that.  "Be still and know that I AM GOD", he says to us in Psalm 42.  There are far too many unimportant things that draw our attention away from our God, the God of all hope, and of all comfort.

I pray that you will take the time each morning to sit quietly with your Bible and maybe a cup of coffee and listen to the written Word of God speak to your very soul.

Do you have a journal?  It's a great help for me to have my journal with me as I read my Bible.  I write my prayer requests and then answers to prayer.  I write my thoughts, or what the Lord is speaking to my heart.  Many many times I simply copy the verses that jump out at me. (It's great to practice my penmanship, too)


as you can see .. I need more practice :)

Until next time,
May the God of all comfort, comfort your hearts in Christ Jesus!
