Oh do we have News for YOU, my friend

and we are REJOICING 

for JESUS is really ALIVE 

We  want to Share this wonderful news and what He has done for us  

That JESUS died on the Cross for YOU and ME

 ...and {three}days later... Lord HAS RISEN INDEED!!!

OK friends

 So here is the real deal..while these pictures show the sweet , 

LIFE isn't always so.

 I struggle daily.

over and over again

 without Jesus Christ 

my hope for life would be gone.

I am a mess without HIS SAVING GRACE.

FORGIVENESS

& MERCY

Life is hard. 

but Jesus CARES

God does NOT promise me that I will be happy .

( examples like a loving husband & family ,"good" kiddos, health and wealth)

instead God promises me true PEACE , HOPE and ETERNAL LIFE!!

Jesus is waiting for YOU!

What are YOU waiting for?

My prayer for you

But if from there you seek the LORD God, you will find him if you seek Him with all your heart and with all your soul. Duet 4:29

Thaddeus thought to be hilarious...Mama ,not so sure (:

Through the LORD’s mercies we are not consumed,Because His compassions fail not.

They are new every morning; Great is Your faithfulness.

Lamentations 3:22-23

Praising Jesus for his Grace and Mercy today

( a side note... my children used to pray... "Thank you Jesus for Grace & Marcy you've shown to us" , a dear friend of ours...cracked me up every time:)

Most of my days could feel like complete failures...

I was selfish, had anger, yelled, was impatient ...

the list goes ON and ON....

...whew I could get down

Father..forgive me & help me

but Today I am choosing to Focus on HIS Renewing MERCY...

Hallelujah!!

"This is my Father's world, And to my lis-t'ening ears. All nature sings and round me rings the music of the spheres. This is my Father's world; I rest me in the thought of rocks and trees, of skies and seas His hands the wonders wrought."

A song out of the children's "My First Hymnal"

We found 3 baby bunnies in our yard!
New LIFE
A sight out our back window where a mama bird has built her nest!
Arabella & Orrin check on them every morning

We are wishing for SUNSHINE again but to have beautiful spring days we must have the rain like today. As in our lives Jesus brings us pain/rain for us to grow beautifully in HIM.

Beautiful Blossoms & Outside Days

These may not be California almond blossoms but beautiful anyways!
