Get Your House in Order: Game Day and Stuff

"Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the LORD your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you."
Deuteronomy 31:6

Steelers first game 2015

Football season kicked off for The Steelers today with a double header. It's Luke's seventh season playing flag football...and Jeff is one of the coaches again this year which makes him very happy! The team played great today! And I love being on the sidelines....

After the games, I headed over to my parents, to grab more of our treasures that are stored in their attic. Yes, I am still moving stuff. All of our pictures and artwork were at their house among more Christmas decorations, etc. After a nice visit and a yummy lunch, I left with a car full of stuff and came home to unload. Jeff and Luke had been by his parent's and picked up more stuff there. It's all coming together..at a very slow pace. I heard the chainsaw again at one point and we were all out there hauling limbs to the road again!  Just a big ole bunch of fun over at the Moore's! Makes me laugh. One gigantic project!!

But wow, how good it feels to see the progress. I have changed so much over the years. I can totally just leave something undone now and come back to it. Whereas before I had to have it done (worn out or not) and everything in place. Now it's more important for me to take a break, rest and start back tomorrow if  need be. Progress not perfection. Much healthier.

I thank God for this new season we are in...everything has changed. I seek His face and not His hand. I seek to know Him more. I seek to follow where He leads. I know that there is so much more to His plan that I can even understand. I surrender all. Amen

Day#229 Seasons Change
Blessings,

Get Your House in Order: Cancer Awareness & Giveaway

“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!
