  1. These are wonderful, too, Amanda!

    I'm also thankful for the world around us - blooming flowers, beautiful sunsets, myriads of stars and the glory of the full moon. God's world is so amazing!

    With love,
    Patience

    P.S. I hope you and your family get over your colds soon.

  2. Yes, often I wonder how people can look around at creation and say "it just happened" or "it gradually came to be." How can they NOT see a loving Father's hand involved in molding each part of Creation??

    Thanks for your concerns of our cold. Right now, we just have a cough lingering . . . and lingering . . . but God is good. We are well enough to be singing somewhere tomorrow night, Lord willing!!! :)

Thank you for stopping by! I pray that you have found something that encourages you today. Thank you for taking the time to give me a little comment - they always brighten my day. :) I usually stop by and reply to as many comments as I can, but sometimes it takes me a week or so. But if you asked a question, be sure to check back!
