Mother's Day...A Little Late!

I love coming and logging on to my own blog! Apparently it has been months since I posted. It used to be such a part of my life, day to day activities were shared along with plans, dreams and encouragement. Facebook has since become the day to day source of social media, but I love this blog to capture memories and milestones of life.

I even downloaded the blogger app to my phone to be able to capture easier things to blog. In fact, these pictures were there as a sweet reminder of Mother's Day..back in May!!! This was a different Mother's Day this year, sweet hubby had to work, oldest son was unable to come for the day, so it was a bit quieter than usual. But a heartfelt gift of fresh picked wildflowers and the boys asking to take pictures (on their own, no prodding) made it a special day I want to cherish...

So here are a few pictures from a special Mother's Day 2015!

Sometimes We Score, Sometimes We Block

Our family is in the midst of little league soccer season. My youngest son is playing and his enthusiasm is contagious. He is pretty good at the sport, but what makes it so great is that he loves it! He counts the days until the next game or practice. He loves his coach and teammates. He has moved up an age level this year and the players are working more like team, passing to each other and watching out for each other during play. During the last game, my son scored two goals, they were the only goals of the game. In today's game the team scored eight goals. My son came up afterwards to me and said, "I didn't score today, but I blocked". What a powerful truth those words can hold. In life, sometimes we score, sometimes we block. Sometimes we do great things, we excel, we achieve, we meet our goal - we score! There are also times we see the needs of others, sometimes they are sad or hurting, we block their hits. We look out for them so they can score. We...

Word Filled Wednesday – Act Justly

He has shown you, O man, what is good; And what does the LORD require of you But to do justly, To love mercy, And to walk humbly with your God? Micah 6:8 Sometimes we struggle so hard with the question “What does God want us to do and be?” This verse is a simple yet powerful reminder of some simple things that God requires of us. Act and do justly, love mercy and walk humbly before God. There are numerous opportunities each day to do justly, to do the right thing or to make the right choice. We love mercy when we show kindness or mercy oftentimes to those who do not deserve it. Walking humbly before God is acknowledging He alone is God. He is the I AM – no one else is. When we give Him the glory He is worthy of, it will humble our heart before Him....
