Get Your House in Order: Criss Cross Applesauce

"The horse is made ready for the day of battle,  But victory rests with the Lord."
Proverbs 21:31


Mom and Dad, snow of 1992, Rock Mountain Lakes, Coleman Drive


This is my parents, in front of our house in Rock Mountain Lakes...where I lived from second grade until my sophomore year of college. Look at those windows....

 Criss Cross. 

When I showed Mom the picture and asked her if she remembered them, she didn't. Dad and Stephen didn't either. Not sure what all the connections are but it made our new house seem a little sweeter, knowing this history I have with these windows. I was just talking today about how I have to be in a room with a window most of the time (atleast I prefer to). I am a little claustraphobic by nature. I love light, especially sunlight that comes through a window. I already have the perfect spot picked out in the new house for my morning quiet time with the Lord and my coffee. Looking out the front window.
Criss Cross.

What about you? Do you have a set time to meet with Him? It's the only way I can get my day going in the right order. I am really enjoying Proverbs right now, one for each day of the month, so today I read Proverbs 21. I would love for you to join me...smile!

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!
