30 Days of Thanks, Day 15

Today I am thankful that my hubby made it home safe from Montana with the snowy roads! I am also...yes....thankful for the pretty snowfall tonight. 

30 Days of Thanks, Day 12

Today I am thankful for the many keepsakes and gifts from family members that have been passed down to us that hold such precious memories.

Living in Black and White, Trusting in the Light

Overall, January was a gray month, or more like living in black and white on a daily basis.

We had a lot of heavy, dense fog, and freezing fog.  

The freezing fog made for some beautiful trees, when the fog lifted enough to see them.

Dark days can bring us down.  

But even on the dark days, we can find beauty, if we look.

We have to adjust our focus....... 

...knowing better days are ahead. 

We  have to push through the darkness, and not let it overcome us, but hope in the light. 

The Light shines in the darkness, and the darkness can never extinguish it.  

John 1:5 

We can live in some very dark days spiritually, personally, financially but if we turn to Christ, He will provide a way for us to get through that darkness.  He is the Light, and the darkness cannot and will not ever overcome Him.  Put your hope in Him today and let Him help you walk through the dark days, into the Light of His love and grace.

30 Days of Thanks, Day 12

Today I am thankful for the first snow.  I can't believe I am saying that, but it's so beautiful.  I was dreading the first snow, but when I woke up this morning and saw it, the little kid in me came out and I was excited.
