Trading my ashes for beauty….that He might be glorified. Isaiah 61:3
Who am I? A wife for almost 40 years. A mom for over 36 years. A sister and a friend, of course. Each of these help describe me. But, even more, I have been a Christian since accepting Him as my Savior when I was 12 years old and, this truth defines each area of my life. I have enjoyed some mountain top experiences but have been through some very deep valleys as well. Valleys of incredible grief and even pits of depression. However, most of my days are ordinary, routine kind of days. But in every one of my days, God has been faithful. He has walked with me whatever the day. He strengthens, comforts, encourages and blesses me with life "most abundant."
A favorite life verse: The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly. John 10:10
Why do I write? Though not quite as private as my dad, I am definitely my father's daughter. I find it difficult to share. And to let others in. But I do love to write. I love to put words into sentences and sentences in paragraphs that help express my thoughts. I hope my words help me share my heart. Share the life that God has given me and all that He has done for me and through me. I write with the hope of giving Him at least a bit of the glory He is due.
A verse to guide my writing: That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ. I Peter 1:7
Greetings Jennifer!
Thanks for stopping by my blog. Our “Frugal Homespun Christmas” was our Women’s Ministries Fall event. It was sort of like a VBS for bigger people (women). First we had a devotional on “money management”, then a craft (fabric/candy wreath and ornaments), lunch, another craft ( homemade bath salts and cookie mix in a jar, and another devotional on “time management”. Then we had a sharing time to exchange ideas on how we saved time/money at home. (There was singing intersperced throughout.) The idea was to provide ways to live more simply (inexpensive gifts for Christmas ) and make memories while doing it. Hope this answered your question. Please stop by my blog again, and now I am going to browse through yours! :~}
PS. ( Aren’t grandbabies terrific?!)
