A snowflake fell into my hands,

a tiny, fragile gem,

a frosty crystal flowerlet

with petals, but no stem.

I wondered at the beauty

of its intricate design,

I breathed, the snowflake vanished,

but for moments, it was mine.

Sunshine

 An attitude of gratitude...

          the little old ladies in Al -Anon advised me with a smile ... so today I am grateful for that beautiful sun shining through my collection of colored vintage glass.

                                   The house smelling like pine trees

                                                               And a fresh new day where anything can happen :)

                                                                                                       

A prayer for a little house

 

A PRAYER FOR A LITTLE HOUSE

God send us a little home
To come back to, when we roam.
Low walls and fluted tiles
Wide windows, a view for miles.
Red firelight and deep chairs
Small white beds upstairs
Great talk in little nooks
Dim colors, rows of books.
One picture on each wall,
not many things at all.
God, send us a little ground
Tall trees stand round.
Homely flowers in brown sod
and Overhead, thy stars, O God.
God bless thee, when winds blow
Our home and all we know.

standing straight

amidst sparkle snow

glitter queen

laying still

along the fields below

Love is in the air

 

 Ooh Valentines day is almost here,and although we don't do much as far as dates, I do like all the crafting going on during this time.

 We painted lace hoping to transfer the design to paper ~ it didn't work, but we did end up with some pretty pink lace instead.

Beautiful promises -

^{Deuteronomy 28 : 12 - 13}

¹² The LORD will open the heavens, the storehouse of his bounty, 

to send rain on your land in season 

and to bless all the work of your hands 

You will lend to many nations but will borrow from none. 

¹³ The LORD will make you the head, not the tail.  

If you pay attention to the commands of the LORD your God that I give you this day and carefully follow them, you will always be at the top, never at the bottom. 

Life

No need to worry

On this rest day, my heart can be still, 

knowing that God has everything under control.

No need to worry. No need to fret. 

Everything is going according to His plan, and His plan is always GOOD. 

Have a wonderful Sunday everyone. 

This coming up week is Colour week over at poppytalk. 

I'm going to try to join in the fun at least  one day.

Everyday has an assigned colour and all you do is load up a photo of something "summerish" in that specific colour into their flicker account. 

At the end it makes this beautiful rainbow collage. See you there!

Word

Commit to the LORD whatever you do, and your plans will succeed.

Proverbs 16:3

Winter's last hoorah!
