Forty-Five Verses:Update on Simplifying

100 Days of Real Food Cookbook

Whoa! Let me catch my breath, it's been a busy couple of weeks! I was cruising on through my plan to "a simplified life" when boom...life happened! lol. But tonight I was able to make dinner (which I planned, yay) and even tried a new recipe from a book Emily Ley recommended called "100 Days of Real Food" by Lisa Leake. Another potato recipe of course..Potato Hash! Delish side dish to go with fried/baked chicken,  and greens beans. Laundry is going. Got a walk in... and enjoyed the fresh air, as it feels like spring in Alabama right now. This girl is really getting spring fever and wanting to continue decluttering  so I can spring clean this house! I am working on decluttering one room at a time right now.  I think I counted nine kitchen size garbage bags full so far ready to give away. My next action step is calling a charity to pick it up. And continue to fill the bags, put things in place and get this house in order!

I still want to get to the point that I am blogging in the mornings. The nightshift is really not my best writing. Yet I always seem to hear from someone it was exactly what they needed that day. That's God folks!"By day the Lord directs his love, at night his song is with me, a prayer to the God of my life." Psalm 42:8 I am just so spoiled at having atleast an hour to really read and pray and write in my journal that I rarely have time to get a post going. I cherish that time with the Lord more than anything else in the day. I also enjoy sharing some of my morning tidbits so I pray that the shift happens soon. God is always working!

 Day 74 Today's Verse...
"Show me your ways, O Lord, Teach me your paths; Guide me in your truth and teach me. For you are God my Savior, And my Hope is in you all day long." Psalm 25:4-5

Blessings,
Suzanne

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!
