Victory in Jesus

I just added this song from Travis C's new CD to my iPod and it brings
the sweetness of worship that I experienced growing up and
attending church with my grandmother.

Songs, scriptures, and the written words can light up your day with sweet memories.

New memories are always a treat, but there is something about
being a young girl and remembering those words "Victory in Jesus"
that is truly heart warming. Just a thought~

I Needed That!!

I finally was able to change my blog background and
I was really ready for something new! Enjoy the spring &
summer feel.

Just some thoughts

Does anyone just have a hard time memorizing our verses?
Just when I think its going good, I end up saying a memory verse
which is actually 2 different verses! Really gotta get those down!

Yesterday, I was looking at this old rose bush that we transplanted
from my parents home before selling the property. This bush has
been broken, frozen, attacked by white flies, hit by the lawnmower,
yet yesterday one of the deepest red roses I have seen is sitting in
splendor on that bush!

I think that's how God must see us at times, going through life
with all its ups and downs and then we read scripture, hear a message,
fill our hearts and their we are sitting on top basking in Gods goodness.

Oh its not perfect this life, but today I am savoring my beautiful Rose
which has endured so much over the past years and thanking God
he has not allowed me to wither away during the hard times.
He trusts me to find the right balance with my children &
grandchildren so we can all grow together.
