Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable--if anything is excellent or praiseworthy--think about such things. Philippians 4:8
Several months ago, God shared with me a precious picture of my relationship with Him. I saw my front porch and rocking chairs. Jesus was sitting in one rocker and I was in the other. I was overwhelmed with the peace, joy, and freedom of simply being in His presence. It is in this place that He often speaks to me. This blog is dedicated to those conversations.

A Month of Thankfulness: Day Three
Oh my word! Ok, so I am going to try to explain the irony of today's post as best as I possibly can and proclaim that God has a very funny sense of humor when it comes to seeing if I am capable of living out the words I write. I just got done writing a pretty little note about how I was feeling grumpy today and not at all thankful, but how the falling leaves outside remind me that everything in its season is beautiful and to focus on those things......the things that are good, pleasing, and excellent. And then......and then I lost my pretty little note about learning to be thankful in every season, no matter what. And I got kind of grumpy again until God gently reminded me of what I had just written about being thankful no matter what season I am in and to focus on what is good! So, today I am thankful for Gods sense of humor and His lessons and tests which leave me left with only one little word.......touché!
