Get Your House in Order: Meet Harley

"But he was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for inquities; the punishment that brought us peace was upon him and by his wounds we healed."
Isaiah 53:5

Harley..the rescue

This is Harley, our not so socialize little gem who was rescued and kept for two years before we adopted him. Or should I say Abby adopted him (with her own money). He is sweet as pie to all of us, but don't you dare enter the Moore household without letting us put him up! He is very protective. We don't really know that much about his story. Was someone cruel to him? Is he  just naturally this anxious around strangers? We will never know. Abby just knew he was supposed to be ours and we have loved him ever since we brought him home. That face gets me every time though.....

This got me thinking about our stories. We all have one, two, five, ten that make our very being. I am so thankful for the people all throughout my life, through different stories, that have just loved me where I was or where I was going. Stories change. Life changes. Yet certain words and actions of those who were a part of that time come to remembrance. They comfort. They heal. And they give strength. I did not write my story, though times I though I was, but the One who did knows my story now and those to come. "For you, Lord, have made me glad through your work; I will triumph in the works of your hands." Psalm 92:4  Just like Harley, I am a rescue. Thank you Jesus, for rescuing me.

Day#144 Jesus is my rescue
Blessings,
Suzanne

Get Your House in Order: Cancer Awareness & Giveaway

Image
“He will command His angels concerning you to guard you carefully.” Luke 4:10 A few weeks ago I was reminded that September is Blood Cancer Awareness Month (Leukemia and Lymphoma) and encouraged me to use my blog to help raise awareness. I am always willing to give a voice to those fighting and winning against cancer. To me cancer never wins. I will never understand the painful process or the impact and loss it causes but I rest in knowing that...ONE DAY there will be no more cancer. Period. You know how sometimes you read a blog or a book about someone's life and you are just blown away with their story? You connect with so many parts of their lives and you gain insight and inspiration immediately. As was the case with the story, art and website of Patience Brewster , you must take a look for yourself at their page! Patience Brewster reached out to me about writing about a post, after reading some of my cancer stories on Blessings, Suzanne. Patience designs Christmas

On Your Mark

"I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith." 2 Timothy 4:7 While walking on my everyday path and praying about the upcoming Race for the Cure, that I plan to RUN this year, my eyes fell right upon this cross. (picture to the left). I am sure if any of my neighbors were looking out their window it was a sight to see me staring at the ground and saying "only You, God" (and likely very loudly, due to the fact that I had my earbuds in and music blaring)! Two pieces of pine straw put perfectly together to form the cross on the road. What a sweet reminder of God's love! After I snapped a picture, I began to pick up the pace a bit and RUN. Baby steps. My faith in myself had been renewed that I was reminded to look to Jesus to help me run this race. The problem is I don't like to run. I never have, walking is just fine with me...smile! To be honest, I have never challenged myself to do so. So, this is the year! It's my

Get Your House In Order: Sunday Scripture

Image
"So I have looked for You in the sanctuary,  To see Your power and glory. Psalm 63:2 I read these two verses to Luke this morning, he was the first one up, besides me. It was a great opportunity to tell him how I read the  reference verses that go along with the verses each day. We looked up the verses and read them as well. He thought that was cool (his words). We had a brief moment of discussion and then he moved on. We don't normally get that morning time together...what a blessing! Have a wonderful Sunday!
