Joy In All Things


                "Life isn't about waiting for the storms to pass it's about learning to dance in the rain"

I love this quote, came across it last year and I thought it was perfect way of looking at this"season" in my life, a "season" of rain...and what "seems" like a "season" of endless waiting


When think of dancing I think "joy"....for the record I am still learning to "dance in the rain" Learning to be joyful despite my circumstances...because our joy can't be tied to our circumstances...instead it has to be tied to our hope. What is my hope...that I have a loving Father who has all the circumstances in my life under his control...that he is faithful...unchangable...and can be trusted.

Found this little treasure at the thrift store the other day for $1.98...how appropriate, it will soon be hanging in my kitchen



                                              Maybe I can borrow Little Miss's boots and Tutu 

Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you 1 Thessalonians 5:16

Grace for Today

"This is the day the Lord has made; let us be glad and rejoice in it"  Psalm118:24
A verse the Lord gave me this morning as I continue to once again battle fear and fustration. Spending too much time in the what if. The Lord reminding me that he gives me grace for today, does not give me grace for tomorrow yet. Beautiful day outside today, I want to be thankful for the day he has given me today. Take things one day at a time. Be thankful for the small improvements. Remembering he has always been in control, nothing has taken him by surprise!
