Friday Faves



Although it is summer, time is still flying by! Weeks whip past, new months seem to pop up out of nowhere, days can become a blur. This week I took some time looking though my phone photos and am sharing some recent highlights. We had some big and small moments, but each is to be treasured.

 Our youngest son received his learners permit and is now the official driver for the family:


Summer evening walks with the sweet hubby are great.  But they are extra special when you look across the river to see graceful deer grazing.


Being a runner, good equipment is crucial.  Brooks shoes are my favorite.  Last pair, I chose to go a less expensive route and wasn't completely satisfied with the other brand.  This week...Brooks had it's annual summer clearance, so now, I'm back in Brooks and at half price!


I've seen this advertisement on Facebook for a long time.  A 31 day challenge to pray for your marriage with separate books for the husband and wife.  Went ahead and ordered it and it came this week.  Can't wait to get started!


A night of fellowship and fun with some of my church friends!  These ladies always bring some smiles!

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.  Obeying God doesn’t have to be unattainable or impossible, but can be a joyful, beautiful journey as we go by step and follow Him.
