John 1:12.“Yet to all who did receive Him, to those who believed in His name, He gave the right to become children of God.”

God loves us so!!

The baby was staring intently at other people, and as soon as he recognized a human face, no matter whose it was, he would respond with absolute delight. I realized that this is how God looks at us, staring into our face in order to be delighted, I suspect that only God, and well-loved infants, can see this way. Even when we try to run away from our troubles, as Jacob did, God will find us, and bless us, even when we feel most alone, unsure if we'll survive the night. God will find a way to let us know that [God] is with us in this place, wherever we are, however far we think we've run.  Kathleen Norris 

God said to Joshua, “Have I not commanded you to be strong and courageous.

Do not be afraid. Do not be discouraged for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.”

Yesterday was "Grandparents Day" at STS Peter & Paul in Wellston and it was grand. I sometimes wonder if the girls realize how thankful I am to be a part of their lives. I hope so. The food that the school cook, Pam, fixed was really GOOD and plentiful! It always seems a little strange to attend events at the school where your daughter is Principal...isn't she still Mommy's little girl?

Have a blessed day!

AppleFest @the Quarry

We really had a fun time Labor Day at the Quarry with the girls families and the G's. The little tractor and cart and the hike to the non existent water fall were huge hits! We sent everyone home with a couple of jars of our homemade apple butter and a gallon of apple cider and a loaf of Amish bread from the Amish Market. I cannot forget the Apple Crisp made with the apples at our house they were gone in a heartbeat with whipped cream! We are so thankful for our little family!

We overcome adversity by the Blood of the Lamb!

Paul describes it as a life in which “Christ’s love has the first and last word in everything we do” (2 Corinthians 5:14).  A life in which Paul says, “we do not lose heart” (2 Corinthians 4:16). A life defined by grace, refined by challenge, and aligned with a heavenly call. In God’s plan, in God’s land…God’s promises outweigh personal problems. Victory becomes a way of life! Your glory days await you!

Joshua 21:43 says, “So the Lord gave Israel all the land of which He had sworn to give. . .and they took possession of it and dwelt in it.”

and it is good!
