Blissfully Alive: : : : : :. Tuesday, February 24, 2015. This bitter cold that we are experiencing, yet again, is seeping into my bones and camping out there. And, with it comes some thoughts about how the evil comes in to steal any warmth that Jesus is ready and willing to offer. Yes, I would really love some warm weather in which my bones and breath don't feel so frozen. It would be nice to run outside in green field of grass with my almost 2 year old yelling in delight. There is no room for fear in th...

Blissfully Alive: : : : : :. Friday, December 19, 2014. Blue sky flashed a lovely little smile into my day today. The sky here is dark gray, dreary, and it is freezing today. But, on my way home, I was rounding a bend in the highway and there it was! Blue sky. poking through just for me. Jesus knew I needed that little peek of pure bliss. He knew it would warm me up in the midst of this cold. that perfectly blue, beautiful piece of sky was a gift to me. Hallelujah for the sneak peeks of His glory! I'm so...

Blissfully Alive: : : : : :. Tuesday, November 18, 2014. The LORD is near to the brokenhearted and saves the crushed in spirit.". So often I use this verse as a comfort for people. And, I, myself, have meditated on it in trial. He is near. He saves! I decided to tear it apart. This word is "Jehovah" in Hebrew. It means self existent or eternal. I love how God starts off this verse with LORD. In His omnipotence and eternality, He loves us! Jesus is at hand! Dakkâ': God's word is poetic, especially i...

Blissfully Alive: : : : : :. Wednesday, March 25, 2015. Is this not my purpose? Is this not my blessing? If I forget the thankfulness, the yuckiness creeps in. It creeps up my neck and the ungratefulness of my sinful heart brings darkness to my present. like "well, why don't i have this? R, "why do i have to this myself? Or "in this, Jesus is present? In THIS, He is blessing? I shake my head, "No! Instead of clinging to the grace of saying, "YES! To Him. the freedom in that "YES! Teach me to braid.

Blissfully Alive: : : : : :. Tuesday, April 7, 2015. I am sitting here in all the glorious splendor of motherhood, trying to write something. trying to record a piece of life. And then she wanders away still singing "I may never." like a broken record player since she hasn't been able to form the words for the entire song. She is back now, squeezing my face into funny looks and giggling at the contorted view of my face. She is telling me "sit" because she knows that it's on the tip of my tongue as sh...

Blissfully Alive: : : : : :. Thursday, March 12, 2015. My house smells clean. Like homemade carpet cleaner clean! My soul is quenched. Like full of Jesus' Word quenched! Oh, the delight of sunshine streaming through every window as the carpets dry, leaving behind a sweet orange scent and the Word of the Lord ruminates in my mind! His faithfulness I cannot fathom. But, nor can I live without it. I am so thankful. For signs of spring. I love when the house smells clean and my soul does, too!

Blissfully Alive: : : : : :. Thursday, April 23, 2015. Not a "restless sleep" restless. not a "need more things" restless. not a "discontented with what I already have" restless. It's deeper than that. It's this inner longing to do more, be more, fulfill more. And, i don't think it's bad. not one bit. I sit here in a house that feels chilly because winter decided to come back for one last week. But, it's really not cold compared to elsewhere. And there are clothes in the closets. shoes, too! To long for ...

The stores have it. The restaurants have it. It is eaten, drank, and smelled everywhere. There are probably even some type of scratch and sniff sticker that smells like pumpkin spice! Caramel covered apples and all manners of fall dessert are being baked, eaten, and enjoyed. Enjoy this season of harvest and thankfulness a...
