My Brian worked on our very own~ "Gooseberry Patch Farm Truck"~ we call him Harv. Remember he was the reason Farming On Faith caught the attention of Gooseberry Patch and was featured on their blog. I love Gooseberry Patch. His original colors were cream and yellow and we have decided to paint him in just those colors.
You can read the article here. More pictures soon to follow~ he really is cute!
Simple Woman's Daybook~
FOR TODAY
Outside my window... rainy. Praise the Lord it rained~ our ground is so parched it is cracking. We need a month of Sundays worth of rain ~but will take what we received and will be thankful.
On my pond I have a momma and daddy goose with four babies. One seems sickly~ they have been lodging for a couple of days and we are tip toeing around them to make them feel safe. It is so fun to watch that momma and daddy with their babies.
I am thinking... how much damage we can do with our words. My facebook status this morning states~
A wise woman builds up her family and friends~ instead of plucking them down!
Job 42:10, "And the LORD turned the captivity of Job, when he prayed for his friends: also the LORD gave Job twice as much as he had before."
Can we just remember that not everyone is on the same growth level as a Christian and they need time to grow? If we chop them off with our actions or words ~ they may never become Christian giants.
I am thankful... that no matter what circumstances shout to us ~ God is still in control and we can trust Him.
In the kitchen... today I need to clean out the fridge and do something with a bag of cherries. Maybe a pie~
I am thinking of Indian fry bread with taco fixings for supper.
I am wearing... ha~ still my nightgown. After all it is a Monday morning.
I am creating... organization in my basement. Sheet rockers are coming some time this week to finish out our basement. I am so excited that My Brian hired it out. My plan this summer is to not work.... but relax and rest. I have learned you just never know what a new school year will bring. NO ~ I did not just mention ~"Back to School." Just erase that thought!
I am going... to have a Garage Sale. Did I just say that?
I am wondering... what Father's Day is like in Heaven? Didn't know this week would be this hard ~ I am sure my Dad is having the time of his life~ so that brings a smile to my face.
I am reading... Just came in the mail!
I am hoping... to get the basement done today.
I am learning~ even when my footing does not feel secure that He will make my feet like hind's feet.
“The LORD God is my strength, and he will make my feet like hinds' feet, and he will make me to walk upon mine high places. Habakkuk 3:19 KJV
Have you noticed life has more mountains to climb the older we get.
A hind is a female red deer. This kind of deer is able to move easily and rapidly across the rocks and uneven terrain of the mountains and mountainous landscape. It will leap from rocks without losing footing, suggesting that those with hinds’ feet are able to overcome things easily, and elegantly. As the trials come we can handle them eaiser the closer we get to the Lord. He promises to make our feet like hind feet.
Around the house... Monday morning messes :(
I am pondering... how God takes care of the birds and they never worry. They just have faith that God will take care of them. I am sure that is why they are always singing.
A favorite quote for today...
One of my favorite things... coffee on the front porch with My Brian~ I am sure missing him this morning!
A few plans for the rest of the week: Today I am taking my baby to practice parallel parking and lunch. Thinking we are going to make some memories today~ hoping they are good ones.
A peek into my day... oh now that would just be way to boring~ you have a good and Godly day.
