This is my new granddaughter~Olivia Hannah~ as you can see she is just beautiful.
She looks just like her momma did and of course that is like stepping back in time.
I am planning when I can sneak back to Washington for another smooch.
Thank you for your prayers for my son-in-love. He is home.
So thankful for his safe return.
I feel very blessed that he arrived home safe and sound.
Boston is very happy to have Uncle Jacob home too.
We are no longer homeless. Our new home is just a couple miles down our little country road but on the other side of the county line. In a way it will feel much like home. God is good and we believe He led us to our new home.
I wish I could tell you that I passed this test in life I have been taking but I would not exactly say I have. I wouldn't say I have failed but I sure am grieving the process of giving up our home. It is bittersweet. I will miss this little farming on faith that we have created. Such sweet memories we created. God knows the future so for now I will trust that He knows best without stomping my feet.
Jude1:21 Keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life.
Everything will not always be just as we want it to be in life. If so ~ I would never make any changes. I like life to be predictable~ unchanging ~ safe and peaceful. But that is just not the case now is it?
One thing that keeps my feet grounded in this ever changing life is that God and His love are always the same. He never changes. It is at times like this I remind myself that I must "keep" myself in the love of God. That does not mean we have to act in some special way for Him to love us~ although we should have a desire to please Him. When we become His child ~ He loves us when we pass the test in life and He loves us even when we fail. Instead~ it means that we should think or bask in the warmth of His love all day long. Sometimes ~ we just forget to do this. I know lately I sure have.
Romans 8:39 Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
He loved us before we were born and He loves us now. It is our identity in Christ~ it's who we are~ God's beloved children. (Even if we have to move across the county line.)
Jesus loves me this I know.
For the Bible tell me so.
Little ones to Him belong~
they are weak but He is strong.
Yes~ Jesus loves me.
Yes~ Jesus loves me.
Yes~ Jesus loves me.
The Bible tells me so.
