What a beautiful first week
of Autumn.
It's another new
"turning."
So long Summer...
Hello cooler
temperatures,
and shorter daylight.
Hello turning leaves and grasses.
Hello long johns and flannel.
Funny how each new turning,
REturns again
and again.
It's so beautiful and
changes like these:
welcomed.
(In today's post I'm adding three new
scripture pictures. As always feel free to use
and share them.)
When I thought of all the things I need to do today and this weekend-
I thought of my apron hanging there- rather sloppily off a plate rack.
It was late last night when I took it off;
Myguy was waiting for me...
and so I hung it on the nearest thing I could find.
The verse; tops off my to do list.
And so this scripture picture was birthed.
"And whatever you do,
do it heartily as to the LORD
and not to men." Colossians 3:23
Yesterday, I spent time at our family business.
Being there to answer the phone is really the main thing.
(I'm not a mechanic.) ;)
Olde Addie went with me. She slept while I
took calls, swept floors,
washed windows, sinks, and scrubbed toilets.
" heartily as unto the LORD."
I also took my bible with me.
After
supper dishes last night,
I walked to the pond to go fishing.
Gracie followed and stood frozen like a horse statue on the bank.
Her steadfastness brought this verse
to mind.
--It encourages me of how
I want to follow forward.
Immovable... yet always abounding.
(thinking about it kinda blows my mind)
Immovable... but abounding!
Following forward to me also means
....Embracing God's unique opportunities
and callings-
and not worrying whether...
people like it
or not.
Sunday, the Pastor asked us about our vision.
-Sometimes I think it's a matter of our perspective.
I don't say that like I have any of it figured out-
I say it because I know I don't.
As I journaled my thoughts about my faith and vision;
this page got me thinking about
"fearing" the Lord.
He's what matters most of all
....it's a heart thing.
the more love
and loving
more.
"And whatever you do,
do it heartily as to the LORD
and not to men."
holykisses,
