Thankful...

Two are better than one
Husband who does so much for us
Arrows that have filled a quiver with maybe room to spare
Needing my Savior
Knowing He is ALWAYS there
Finding rest and fufillment in Christ alone
Unmerited favor~ GRACE
Learning who I am in Christ

For these things, I am TRULY thankful!

Hope you have a blessed time with family and remembering all the love that is ours for the taking for those who are in Christ!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Knowing...

...feelings just don't matter sometimes,

God is suffcient

 

...when we feel alone,

we never are

 

...when we feel chewed up and spit out

God cares

 

...this world will suck the life out of you

but God gives life

 

...life's burdens are weighing on us

God wants to carry them for us

 

...we may feel God is silent

but we know He is everpresent

 

...God is working all things together for good

for those who love Him

 

...He is MORE than enough!

 

 

 

 

 

The time change...

The time change is NEVER easy on me! 

I do not recieve the extra hour of sleep than some claim to get!

I ALWAYS lose at least an hour because kids just seem to have that internal clock that does not reset easily! They have all been up rarin' to go by 5 the past two mornings!

Uhg!

 I have realized mine does not reset easily either...

I have gotten more done by 8 this morning than I get done in an entire morning some days!

I get sleepy by 8 so I am considering just keeping my internal clock the same and not changing it! 

I won't need to retrain myself, it is already established!  More prayer time in the morning, and hopefully lots more will get accomplished before anyone gets up...

Now if I can get them to get into a new routine and I don't wear myself out keeping up with their new clocks!

This will be interesting for all of us but somehow it always works out! :)
