You shall go out with joy and be led forth in peace; the mountains and the hills before you shall break forth into singing, and all the trees of the field shall clap their hands." Isaiah 55:12

- I am a teacher. I can't spell well or speak correctly. How did I ever become a teacher you ask? Only God. It's a long story. I am an introvert. I think more than I speak. I enjoy being alone, and at home as much as possible. I want to reflect God's love to every person God brings to me. I am married to a wonderful, caring, supportive man. He loves to help others, and is willing to listen and talk to those in need. He loves to garden, and work outside. Cookies are his favorite. We love drinking coffee and eating cookies together. I have a burden for hurting children. I wish all children everywhere, felt love, safety and security, from not only their Heavenly Father, but also from a family that cares more about the needs of their children then their own personal needs. I love looking for small glimpses of God's great love. They are all around us, every day. Have you noticed? Do you know of God's love for you?

Where's your focus?
Ok so I've been thinking... :) not always a good sign, but today it is... In the picture I just posted, you don't see the swarm of bugs that will attack you the moment you step outside of the car, you don't see the busy highway with large semi trucks zooming passed you at break-neck speeds, you don't see the VBS van filled to the max with screaming, kicking, not so well-behaved kids, and you definetly don't see the frenzied driver/photo shooter on her way to try and teach these marvilous angels about a God who loves them... no thats all in the background. So let me ask you something? Where's your focus? Are you looking at all the distractions around you? Are you seeing the bugs, and bad kids... the things that are trying to ruin your day, or are you taking time to focus on God. Cause when you take that precious time to be with Him, He totally changes your focus on life, and instead of seeing the bad, the ugly, and the horrible things about life, we begin to see, His love, His Hope, and the beauty of His creation. So keep that focus on Jesus, and He will give you a renewed view on life. Just some thoughts that have been going through my mind.... hope they make sense to you...

ummm, yes, I admit it...I'm just now reading this. Sorry! But, what a good post! Thanks for those thoughts.
Did you take the picture off, though? I didn't see it.
Blessings!
