A Verse I Seem to Come Back to A Lot...
Though the fig tree may not blossom, nor the fruit be on the vines, though the labor of love may fail, and the fields yield no food, though the flock may be cut off from the fold and there be no herd in the stalls – yet I will rejoice in the LORD, I will joy in the God of my salvation. Habakkuk
3:17-18
One of My Favorite Quotes...
Be still, and Know that I am God.
I Love...
gardening with flowers, singing praises to God, reading to relax, going on a date with my husband, hearing my children laugh, seeing my daughter sleep, holding hands, giving hugs, writing thoughts and feelings, praying for a friend, watching colored leaves fall, sitting on a creek rock feeling the water on my feet, cool fall nights, being alone to think, playing scrabble with my family, cuddling on the sofa to watch a movie, meeting new friends, telling people about God, playing in the rain, browsing in a library or bookstore, listening to old walls and cities talk, drinking coffee or hot tea, warm homemade wheat bread, home-cooked food, teaching Science to children, fresh mountain air, cottage homes
Not much love for...
...abuse, lying, ridicule, rumors, hot beaches, perfect people, rich formal homes, lazy people, clutter (thought I have a lot), physical illness, selfishness, gore and violence, oppression, rejection
Bio:
I am a daughter of the King for over 27 years. My college sweatheart and I married when we were 21. Our 25th Anniversary will be in July 2009. I am the homeschool mother of three precious children (15 year old son in High School, a 13 year old son and an 11 year old daughter). My life began in horror being raised for 18 years in an extremely abusive home, the middle child of nine children. We experienced abuse that no child should ever see or hear about from incest to daily fear of being beat, tormented and neglected. My soul shattered and become numb to function and survive. God has rescued me, and continues to complete the healing process deep within me. I am honored to help other hurting and abuse women find hope for their hurts, and to be encouraged that God will help them raise up a godly seed, redeeming their family from Satan’s curse.
