I have not been around lately to post due to trying to give my home some new curb appeal.

Just about finished and hope to be able to post results soon.

The entire project took longer than what my DH and I expected.

Getting older sure does slow a person down.

We took it a little at a time and day by day we are getting it finished.

Our weather here in the Northeast has been very mild, which has been great

for doing all the work

I started a raised bed garden this year. So easy to do and fun.

My granddaughters were here to help me plant. I enjoy them so much.

OK, enough rambling for now. Come back soon and see the results of my work.

Thankful Thursday

Let Go And Let God

As children bring their broken toys with tears for us to mend,

I brought my broken dreams to God, because He was ,my friend

But then, instead of leaving Him is peace, to work alone,

I hung around and tried to help, with ways that were my own.

At last I snatched them back and cried,

"How can you be so slow?"

"My child," He said, What could I do?

You never did let go." (Unknown)

Today I am thankful that even when I mess up,

God is always there for me.

I am so Thankful that He is all POWERFUL,

full of MERCY and GRACE.

Thankful for:

That God is a personal God

Being loved and able to love

Direction from the Holy Spirit

God's love

God's provisions

God's protection

God's Word, the Bible to teach me His ways

God's correction to lead me the right way

Forgiveness from others and ability to forgive

Fellowship of God's people online and in person

Family, friends and new friends to come

Beautiful spring weather.
