HIS Care Is This Storm

"Sometimes you need the storm in order to see the glory.
 
 
Sometimes it's only the deep and dark storms of life that put the glory of the Messiah and the kind of relief where I can now see it and I can now get it and I can say, "I'm okay, because this One has drawn me into eternal relationship with Him.
 

 
Sometimes you need the storm to see the glory. Oh, the care is not just Jesus' presence in the storm. 
 

 
The care is the storm!
 


That's care, just the kind of care that we need.

 
He's zealous that we would see and understand that we would really have hearts of faith—sturdy, assured, confident, bold, ministering, faith.” Paul David Tripp
 


Words can never share how overwhelmed I have been, at the outpouring of love, support, and prayers from each of you. And I can truly say, that GOD has given a peace that surpasses all understanding.
 
I met with the oncologist this week, and the surgery has been scheduled for this coming Tuesday.
 
Many more prayers are needed.
 
Prayers for peace of mind, as the thought of surgery TERRIFIES me. Prayers that I will not get sick before hand, as a cold is going around my family. Prayers that it will be a smooth recovery, and all who care for me will be granted patience, as I am NOT the best of people to be around when I feel bad. ;) And prayers the cyst will not be cancerous.
 
I have some praises. After meeting with the oncologist, there was some relief. He feels very confident the cyst is not cancerous, and that he might even be able to save the ovary.
 
There are no guarantees.
 
Only faith, and trusting in the LORD's goodness and grace.
 
And GOD's people boldly approaching the throne of grace, with their petitions and praise.
 
GOD is good, all the time!
 
Have a wonderfully blessed day everyone! Thanks for stopping by!

My Jesus

My Jesus, I love Thee, I know Thou art mine-- For Thee all the follies of sin I resign; My gracious Redeemer, my Saviour art Thou; If ever I loved Thee, my Jesus, 'tis now.
 
I love Thee because Thou hast first loved me And purchased my pardon on Calvary's tree; I love Thee for wearing the thorns on Thy brow: If ever I loved Thee, my Jesus, 'tis now.
 
I'll love Thee in life, I will love Thee in death, And praise Thee as long as Thou lendest me breath; And say when the death-dew lies cold on my brow. If ever I loved Thee, my Jesus, 'tis now.
 
In mansions of glory and endless delight, I'll ever adore Thee in heaven so bright; I'll sing with the glittering crown on my brow, If ever I loved Thee, my Jesus, 'tis now.

Guess What?

Guess who surprised this gal last Friday evening? Her very special someone of course. And guess what he completely and totally surprised her with. These little beauties of course...



Guess what made these blooms so special to this gal...



These were the first flowers she has EVER received from a guy (excluding the little brother).



I'd rather have roses on my table than diamonds on my neck. ~Emma Goldman



Flowers are those little colorful beacons of the sun from which we get sunshine when dark, somber skies blanket our thoughts. ~Dodinsky



To be overcome by the fragrance of flowers is a delectable form of defeat. ~Beverly Nichols



“What a lovely thing a rose is!... Our highest assurance of Providence seems to me to rest in the flowers. All other things, our powers, our desires, our food are all really necessary for our existence in the first instance. But this rose is an extra. Its smell and color are an embellishment of life, not a condition of it. It is only goodness which gives extras, and so I say again that we have much to hope from the flowers.”
~ Arthur Conan Doyle, The Naval Treaty



Wanna guess something else? She still cannot quite grasp the fact, even after six months, she could ever deserve to be courting/dating this amazing guy. A strong Christian, with an incredible servant's heart, my best friend and more, Justin. :)



Thank-you Father, for blessing me WAYYYY... more than I could even begin to deserve. Help me, to be the same sort of blessing, to the one who has been such to me.


Have a wonderfully blessed day everyone! Thanks for stopping by!

Back to School




Lord, let me just be what they need.

If they need someone to trust, let me be trustworthy.

If they need sympathy, let me sympathize.

If they need love (and they do need love), let me love in full measure.

Let me not anger easily, Lord but let me be just.

Permit my justice to be tempered in your mercy.

When I stand before them , Lord, let me look strong and honest and loving.

And let me be as strong and good and honest and loving as I look to them.

Help me to counsel the anxious, crack the covering of the shy, temper the rambunctious with a gentle attitude.

Permit me to teach only the truth.

Help me to inspire them so that learning will not cease at the classroom door.

Let the lessons they learn make their lives fruitful and happy.

And, Lord, Let me bring them to you.

Teach them through me to love you.

Finally, permit me to learn the lessons they teach.

Loverly...

Okay. I have a confession. I am a somewhat hopeless romantic. I can't help it! I've always been the girl to go around singing sappy Disney songs, or looking out the car window on a rainy day, with a wistful look in my eye, and "My Heart Will Go On" playing softly. I love to drive my sister crazy walking around the house singing Snow White's "One Song" and "So This Is Love" from Cinderella. I just LOVE a sweet love story. And to add to all of my antics regarding love, I have created a Pinterest board titled "Crazy Little Thing Called Love". :D

So for this edition of "Oh How Pinteresting Wednesday", I will share some these "loverly" pictures. I hope they bring a smile to your day. :D

Of Late



Good day friends and family! I pray that you are all having a wonderfully blessed day in our LORD! It's a warm and muggy afternoon here. We had some pretty drenching thunderstorms this morning, lasting into the afternoon. I thought maybe it would cool things off a bit, but alas it has turned the atmosphere into a sauna. But I'm not complaining. I love the warmth, and will bask in all it's glory, for fall will soon be here, along with cold temps. :)

So, how have the last few weeks of your life been? Mine, have pretty good. Not as busy as I would like them to be perhaps, but still they have kept me hopping. I have primarily been gearing up for my K-3 teaching job, which begins this week. Tuesday night will be open house, with the first official class day on Thursday.

I kind of have mixed emotions about school starting up. On the one hand I am excited to be working, and serving at our church's Christian school. On the other though I am pretty nervous.

I guess I am just worried about how well the children will obey. I had some major issues with disobedience last year. No amount of kindness or punishment would change some children's attitudes, and that really wore me down. But, the LORD taught me a lot through those times. Patience was the big lesson, and I am praying that patience learned last year, will continue into this coming school year. :)

But over all, I am pretty excited at starting anew, on a clean slate, so to speak. :D

Work around my parents homestead moves steadily along. Animals are fed and milked daily. And all seem to be doing quite well.

I will be completing a personal endurance challenge, for the third year in a row this Saturday. I will be walking fifteen miles, around a local lake. I am so excited about this event. Not only do I get to spend time in the great outdoors, I get to challenge myself mentally and physically. I can't wait! :D

Well, I think I'm going to get off of here for now. I need to get some things around the house cleaned up before I complete and hour of walking this evening. So until next time...

Have a wonderfully blessed day everyone! Thanks for stopping by!

Contentment



To my great shame, I have been feeling sorry for myself quite a bit this week. Crying, worrying, you name it, I've done it. But as of this moment, I am going to look on the bright side of life, and thank the LORD for all the good he has brought into my life. Like...

~ Having a lot of time to help my mom out around the house. My neighbor has slowed down in the farm business, so I have been out of a job there. But this has given me plenty of time to spend helping out a little extra around the homestead. :)

~ The LORD's provision and wisdom in money matters. With me being unexpectedly out of work, you think I would have problems financially. But praise the LORD for leading me to save a good portion of what I made last year. It's enough to hold me over until school starts and beyond. :D

~ The ability to exercise 2 hours a day. A good portion of people are not able to get out of bed and walk in the morning. I praise the LORD for letting me be physically able to walk 2 hours a day, in the gorgeous scenery of my parents homestead. :D

~ For having a friend like Justin, listen to my problems and feelings. For me, when I'm feeling down, it helps a huge lot to just get things out in the open. Talking about how things are going in life, and having a listening ear is such a blessing. One that I have never experienced before, outside my family, until now. :)

~ The gorgeous full moon this week. I was able to spend a good bit of time outside in it's light. All the shadows cast are almost magical. I do believe a full moon night is one of GOD's greatest natural creations. :)

~ For being able to return to my K-3 teaching job in about three weeks. I'm really excited about this year. I have so many teaching ideas for the kids, swimming through my head, I can hardly wait to get started. And since this will be my primary job, I can spend more time and energy on this, instead of extending myself in 3 different directions. :D

~ Lastly, but most importantly, that as of July 28th, I have been saved 8 years. After quite a bit of soul searching that year, I finally gave my life over to the LORD, and became HIS child at 12:08 am. :D :D :D

Thank-you LORD for all of your wonderful blessings on me!

What are you thankful for this week?

Have a wonderfully blessed day! Thanks for stopping by!

Smiles

Okay. So I know I haven't been posting my usual deep thinking, or life posts of late. It seems like I have been posting more of Pinterest than anything of late? Will you allow me another today? I promise I have great post on my view of child birth, and natural health in the works. It's just today I feel kinda Pinterestingly, "Tangled"! :D
