Get Your House in Order: Laundry Space Before

"Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son and the Holy Spirit."
Matthew 28:19

Laundry space Before
 Just what you were wanting to see, right?...the laundry "space"!!! I wouldn't quite call it a room, a  closet maybe but not a room. I spend minimal time as possible here anyway. And in all it's glory, it typically looks like it's pictured!

We have not quite figured out how to position the washer and dryer either, so they "dance" aka are very loud when running..haha! I like that it is located in the hall and is easily accessible to two kiddos that are soon to trying out these dancing wonders:) Talking big, I know, but we are moving toward them doing their laundry. Abby has started ironing a little, that's a start! And besides, laundry and ironing are not my strengths. It's my least favorite chore, but one that is not going anywhere anytime soon!

Maybe if we spruce up the space a bit, add a little more function (shelves, small hanging rack) than what you see here (umm, nothing), I can ....forget it. Moving on. I am thankful for space and will put on my best attitude while I load, fluff and fold................

Laundry Space Doors Before
And see how easy it is to close it off? Wouldn't a sliding barn door/or doors be neat here?Stay Tuned!

Wanted to share this....Today I saw a license plate that said "HESABLE3".  The car zipped by me just as I was praying about something that had been tearing at me for two weeks now.  For some reason, all day yesterday, the Lord had given me the verse "He binds up the brokenhearted and heals their wounds." Psalm 147:3 and I said it over and over until I memorized it.

Just like doing laundry, I do not like hearing the words "brokenhearted." None of us do. I do, however, rest in the fact that He heals our wounds. Wounds hurt, they scar, they even become infected if not dealt with in time or properly. To bind means "to fasten or secure with a band or bond." So I pictured the Lord fastening together broken hearts and mending them back together, restoring them to a more healthy life. Healed. That is just my illustration.

Whether it be grief, broken relationships, spiritual complacency, addictions, betrayal, loss, health issues... anything that causes you to be brokenhearted...."He binds up the brokenhearted and heals their wounds." Psalm 147:3 I believe there is restoration in this promise. You know why? "HESABLE3" .
Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

"Now to Him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us."
Ephesians 3:20


I hope you have a great night...I have more laundry to finish and fold;)

Day#256 Same power

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

"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!
