~A Peek Into Our Weeks

We got some exciting news the other week!  Steven and I are so excited to welcome our new grandchild in the semi near future!

Our grandson Leo loves frozen, so we took him to a meet and great in a near by town.  He was so excited!

I am making some chicken and potatoes in the crock pot for tonight's dinner.

This is how I have a closet in my bathroom organized.  It feels so good to have a place for all we use.

 This is a drawer where I keep my Bible and my devotionals that I use each day.

Here is a drawer where I keep some special items.  They are mostly things that people have given to me.  The little prayer book on the left had belonged to my great great grandma, my great grandma, my grandma, my mother and now to me.  It is very dear to my heart.  

Life has slowed down since the children have all moved out, but I am adjusting to it quite nicely.  I miss them a lot, but they come and visit and we go and visit them from time to time.  One thing with life is it never stays the same.  We must learn to adapt to each new season and take the good with the bad and make the best of it.  

I have a heart that is thankful for all the little things even in the midst of hardships.  The Lord gives me peace and joy despite things that happen in the world and in our own lives.  I always try to keep my heart set on an eternal focus where I am aware that eternity is much more important that our day to day life here and now.  So if the weight of this life starts to get you down, don't forget to keep your gaze straight ahead and your focus on Jesus.

Thank you for taking time to stop by my little space.  God bless you and keep you in His loving care.  Hugs to you.  ~Juli
