Multitudes on Monday..

Wow ~~~~ the Lord is so gracious! I have missed reading and participating in such a great community of believer's and counting the grace, the good and the 'not how I planned it' but God knew what He was doing days.

Jeremiah 29:11-14
11 For I know the plans I have for you,” says the Lord. “They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope. 12 In those days when you pray, I will listen. 13 If you look for me wholeheartedly, you will find me. 14 I will be found by you,” says the Lord.




I have taken a pretty long break since posting last in this catagory and the passed month  and 1/2 since I last posted gift 465, I have written just uner 100 gifts of grace and life from my LORD.

Enjoyed reading your list. I especially like the one about teenagers making dinner for family. I love it when my teenaged son makes pancakes in the morning.

I have never heard of Lavender Lemonade. I'm intrigued.

great list and love your pictures! I read your about me page and I love it! Thanks for stopping by my blog.

The "Do Hard Things" Conference is put on by Alex and Brett Harris. They were teens when they wrote a book about rebelling against low expectations. They now do conferences. The book is called "Do Hard Things A Teenage Rebellion against Low Expectations." Great read.... sorry this turned into a novel.

what beautiful pictures and thanks! Seeing God in the daily is such a blessing... it's hard to remember how I responded to situations in life before "counting". So glad to be in community with you, sister!

I love #528 and #536!

Nicole, thank you so much for visiting me over at This Beautiful Mess! I so know what you mean about "catching up" on all those memories and scrapbooking them all... currently in the process! Thankful for 1000 gifts and a way to archive these things day by day. So often I live with my head in the past but am finding so much joy in living in the present. Sounds like you are as well. What a wonderful blog! Thank you for saying hello.

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  . I have been at this blogging thing for a few years and love the opportunity it gives me to see other women wanting to be an encouragement to those they can even via the web. I blog mostly about what matter to me,  my family and my faith. I have been married to my man for 16 + years and have 3 wonderful children.  I love the Ocean - here we are at the beautiful Outer Banks of NC. We woke the children at 525 AM to see the sunrise and none of them even complained.  I can usually be found with some form of coffee with in a few feet of me. I love sunrises and sunsets, and taking photos when the opportunity arrives. 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...
