This is quilt #5! I cut out the fabric about 6 months ago but spent tonight sewing the pieces together. It's so enjoyable to see colors come together :-)
What a patient LORD we serve- especially when the very qualities He is perfect in are the very qualities He is working in us...to make us more like Him. This picture is of some notes I took about 4 months ago...recognizing my need to take my eyes away from self and to put my eyes on Him. It's so easy to focus on "self" when circumstances surround us and overwhelm us. And yet, the LORD clearly used Job as an example to show us weak people what trust in Him looks like! I love what Job said in 23:10- but He knows the way I take, when He has tried me I shall come forth as gold. And so- here I am ( 4 months later!) and can say that God knew my path and still knows my path! Recognizing that He is the Giver of Everything and our Refiner in every circumstances is a source of contentment. Contentment comes when we accept the place He has for us, knowing it's HIS best and HIS plan for us. Living in HIS plans can cause us to accept anything - whether it is explained or unexpl...
One my new favorite places to go in OKC is 'cuppiesnjoe' - a cute 1940's home in the Paseo District that has been renovated into a coffee house. I like it because they have cupcakes : ) I also like it because you get quality iced tea for only $1.50, which includes free "pour-yourself" refills : ) They let me take pictures there : ) And, I like it because I can tuck myself into a corner on a comfy sofa and spend some quiet time with my Savior : ) Something I can't seem to get enough of..." O GOD, You are my GOD; early will I see You; my soul thirsts for You; my flesh longs for You in a dry and thirsty land where there is no water. " Psalm 63:1 ~ ~ "Lemony Snicket" Cupcake ~ I'm inviting you to come sit down and talk with me : ) The book of Daniel is where I found myself in the Word this morning..."But Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not defile himself with the portion of the king's delicacies, nor with the wine whi...
Where do I begin to describe all that the LORD has been teaching my little heart about Himself? He is such a patient Shepherd and the past two weeks in Europe have given me an even deeper glimpse of how much I need Him and His guidance in every area of my life : ) That is a little tid-bit as to what I am Learning About Him - but perhaps you all would like to see a few pics of the adventures the LORD has put me on in order to bring me to a deeper realization of my need for Him and His help. Yes, I went all the way to Europe! For 2 weeks (and I still have one week left in Europe) I have been traveling all over. From little Zettlitz to the huge Berlin and then driving through the Alps to seeing beautiful Venezia (Venice), Italy. All of this was something the LORD has been bringing about for some time and I have had the priviledge of spending these journeys with a dear friend of mine, Tim Haugrud. Yep...a boy : ) It would take too long to tell the whole story, but all I can say is that the...
Love it! :)
