A Walk With Christ

-

 As many of my readers know, my goal the last couple of years has been to strengthen my walk with Christ. Growing up in church and being very active in my youth group led me to many great friendships and plenty of fun times. I am thankful for the youth director we had as he truly spoke to us on subjects that we could relate too and he was always just a phone call away.

Once I turned 20 and was more in the world, my walk with Christ suffered. I fell hard, but I was thankful that I knew God was still with me. I knew the day I had asked Christ into my heart and I knew the day I was baptized as well. I was still a prayer warrior and believed in God, but I wasn't following the way I knew He wanted me to live. 

Now that I am older and fully aware of the mistakes I have made, I am fully aware that I need to make sure my walk is closer to God and to follow where He leads and not try to do things my way. He will guide me if I just allow Him too.

I tell all of that to tell you all of a website that I have found that  I am ordering products from to have a country feel to my home but still reminds me of God's love. They have wall art, pillows, clothing, scripture cards, and many more things that I can add to my home. I am ordering the That I May Know Him journal today as it is such a neat journal and I know it will remind me each day to honor God and His will.

If interested, please look here. I am an affiliate with them and if you order from that link, I will receive a bit of money to aid in decision to begin to give to Hope For The World. A dear friend of mine and his family are involved in the ministry to Albania and I want to be able to donate funds to help, but I have to do it without taking from my income, so my affiliate pay will  go to them and their cause.


This is one of the sweatshirts that they offer that I truly want as well. how many times a day could we "Raise A Hallelujah" ? I can think of many times that I could praise God that I don't.


Enough for today, I will talk to you all tomorrow or Thursday.

    What a wonderful commitment you have made, Carol. I have fallen away from the close walk I used to have. I am still a believer, still pray but don't do the reading, etc., that I used to do. I am proud of you- xo Diana

A Grandson

 As I was looking through my posts today, I see that I have failed my readers. Many of you were aware that my other daughter was pregnant and going to deliver in July, I am sure those of you that knew are wondering why I never posted about that and I must say that life has just gotten in the way, and I thought that I had written a post. Since I know I did not, I will now! He came when Mamaw was out of town! Can you believe that? He actually had the nerve to do something so ridiculous as to come while I was at the Pink Zebra reunion (our annual conference). I was with four of my best friends when we got the announcement that he was here! I was so happy that I was able to share that news with them before anyone else. Of course, the leaders of the company were there and anxious to hear how she was doing as well.  Deliver went fairly smooth, but she was in labor for quite a while. I am not sure on hours, but I think about 6 hours. There were some issues with my daughter following delivery

Something is Falling From The Sky

 Yesterday and today have been very cool days here on the farm and I must say that something that we don't recognize has been falling from the sky. It is wet and seems to be hanging around. IT is certainly what the ground needed as it seems to have soaked it up almost immediately. Rain, glorious rain!! The ducks are loving their pool and the rain, but I truly don't think that they are liking the cooler temperatures so much. I know I am not. I don't mind cool, but wearing my sweatshirt in June is not fun.  The white turkeys are enjoying the coop that my husband put together for them. We have 5 of them and two others. We won't be keeping all of the toms as we have too many.  Nesting boxes made of milk crates that we had lying around work well attached to the back wall.  Here is Tom. He is such a great boy, but he likes to show off. He gets along well with the chickens.  These are my Old English chickens. I like them as they are small and will never get much bigger. I actu

 Good Monday morning ladies, how are you? It is super cold here, but I am thankful for our wood stove and plenty of good heat. I am joining Sandra over at  Diary of a Stay At Home Mom  for the Happy Homemaker Monday link up party. She is so kind to host this weekly and there are many of us bloggers that enjoy this weekly post.  The Weather: Cold, snowy, below zero wind chills and temperatures of a night. I believe our high for the day is to be 7 degrees F. BRR!!!!!! I hate winter when it is like this. I don't mind cold, but I don't like Artic cold. I am not a fan of the ice that occurs when we have temperatures like this.  Right Now, I Am: Sitting at my desk drinking coffee. As I look out the window, I see a bit of snow and maybe a bit of a sunrise. It is about -18 degrees with the windchill and so it looks cold! I am listening to the news that my husband left on when he went out. It is not something I care to do, but I just haven't gotten up yet, to change it.  Thinking an
