Family Bible Verse

At yesterdays baby dedication the pastor had the family choose a family verse, one that they were choosing to use to set as an example of what they wanted their family's walk in the Lord to look like. They had chosen

Colossians 3:12-14

Therefore, as God's chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with

COMPASSION,

KINDNESS,

HUMILITY,

GENTLENESS,

AND

PATIENCE

Bear with each other and

FORGIVE

what ever grievances you may have against one another.

FORGIVE

as the LORD forgave you.

And over all these virtues put on

LOVE,

which binds them all together in perfect unity.

I have really enjoyed taking in all that this means to us as we walk the path of not just me as a Christian but together along with our children and with those that we fellowship with in the body, I see it as a list of how to get through every day and end it well. Pleasing to the Lord, and a pleasure to be around.

Blizzard blog hop

I joined in on the Blizzard Blog hop via household6diva Feel free to check out the nearly 200 who are linked in so far. My name is Nicole and I blog over at Be Anxious for Nothing .

We built our first home in 2009 and this past summer I grew my first 'tiny' garden. The tomatoes were a big hit. This is the love of my life, we w...

45 & Counting

The days ahead of my birthday were filled with wonderful times, friends and reflection on my part. I'm blessed to have these handful of ladies to be doing life with right now. They challenge me in striving to lean on God, look to His Word in scripture and I'm reminded I'm loved, as well to humble myself. They all love Jesus and each adds a great JOY to my days. I've been given a life underserved. With days of grace and mercy, He pours out on me, a love I still don't fully comprehend. The richness of blessing that is my husband. His amazing example of love through serving. I was spoiled for days, with dinner, gifts, breakfast, more gifts, lunch, flowers, and yes more gifts. In all things, I'm full beyond words with a grateful heart. The weekend leading up to my birthday, I had the opportunity to attend IF: Local here in Yakima. We were given the verse: Every day they continued to meet together in the temple courts. They broke bread in their hom...
