Last weekend I had a day with my sister and we laughed about goofy stuff...that's always good.

Your post was really uplifting (your encouragement certainly is contagious). <br /><br />And what pretty writing you have. Oh, to have writing like that! I think I would write allday just for the fun of it!<br /><br />I go to the back of our garden when I want to be on my own and pray. We have a swing seat there and the only sound you can hear is the birds singing (unless my children are arguing really loudly!!). It's very restful and I always come back to 'normal life' feeling so refreshed.<br /><br />Do pop by to Modern Country Style. I'd love to see you there.Sarah @ Modern Country Stylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10674775708432670104noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6601957854918310372.post-67629191400605629662010-09-19T21:41:29.631-07:002010-09-19T21:41:29.631-07:00Love this post and your page.

I just stopped by to tell you thank you so much for your kind words about my blog and my Mom. People like you are the reason I blog. I appreciate your comment more than you know. I am following you back, not just because of the comment, but because of your encouraging blog. You seem like someone I would love to sit and have coffee with!

I find that refreshing too.

What a great idea. To be able to look back and see all that HE has done...what a blessing indeed. No wonder you find so much enjoyment in that. <br /><br />I find refreshment in just stopping. It may be for 5 or 10 minutes, but just going out on my back porch swing and doing nothing...really speaks to me. Love ya girl.

Clean the environment. Clear clutter and rearrange. I like it when it's all done. The other thing of course is sitting down and just painting. I do like to walk and I do journal but not consistantly. I like the idea of looking back and seeing how God has answered prayers. <br />Thanks, loved this post and the info on those funny geese too<br />TTinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09818046738439942047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6601957854918310372.post-48311384757851257642010-09-16T04:47:53.116-07:002010-09-16T04:47:53.116-07:00What a beautiful post!

Isn't it wonderful how the Bible is living and active? The same words I know my eyes have past over, but I never "heard" them until today. Thank you for your inspiring words and verse!

It's easy to miss in the dailies isn't it? <br /><br />The mountains refresh me like no other. The crispness of the air, and the smell, so different than anywhere else. I'll be heading there three separate times this fall. Such a treat. <br /><br />Lee Ann, thank you for your insights, encouragement, and love.<br />I treasure our friendship. <br /><br />Oh, and thanks for the bird facts! :) God equips each of us in amazing ways!Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15425904812918507490noreply@blogger.com
