A weekend of blessings

We had such a busy but blessing fulfilled weekend. God truly blessed me. This weekend was opening weekend for Southern New England Conference Campmeeting. Our guest speaker was Dr. Barry Black. He is a retired Navy Admiral, now the 62nd Chaplain of the Senate. He spoke to us about Supersizing our Faith and Not Worrying about what we don't have and what we do have. God takes care of us but He isn't a genie in a bottle to just give us what we want. God has a plan for my life and I need to be open to that plan. I can't wait to get the CD's from the weekend sermons.

Sunday evening was a Steve Green concert. Kristy you were missing from this concert. Steve Green showed pictures of his kids. Oh man where does time go. I remember seeing his kids as little kids now they are all grown up. How does that happen? He sang old favorites and new ones that are going to be favorites for years to come.

The kids loved having their own meetings to attend. It's fun to listen to them be so animated about God and Bible stories. It's absolutely precious listening to the girls at three years old singing Bible songs and saying memory verses. It reminds me of the AWESOME HUMBLING responsibility God has given me to raise Godly children. Only by His grace and power can we do this job.

Hello! I loved your post!! I loved this comment, "He spoke to us about Supersizing our Faith and Not Worrying about what we don't have and what we do have..." Sometimes we all need to be reminded that God is in control of not only our lives, but our finances as well, and we need to thank Him for what we DO have! :)

Hope you have a Great Day! :)

Mission Statement


I would like our home to be clutter-free, inviting and peaceful. My goal is to decide which tasks I need to do or delegate each day so we can maintain a better, more organized lifestyle. My goals also include providing an environment where my children can learn to be productive and Godly people. I want my family and others to know that this house is one where they can be free to live simply, love deeply and laugh abundantly. I want to be able to invite friends over without having to clean up for three days beforehand.
