Things In My House Thursday

Every summer, we take a trip with the boys' favorite cousins to a water park called Lost Island. Today is the day! :-D

Come join MommySweetMom for Things In My House Thursday and share the things in your house!!

Only two things which I am sure of

When I was young, I was sure of many things.

But now that I am old, there are only two

things which I am sure of:

One is that I am a miserable sinner!

Secondly, that Christ is an all-sufficient Savior!

He is well taught--who learns these two lessons.

"This saying is trustworthy and deserving of full

acceptance: 'Christ Jesus came into the world

to save sinners'--and I am the worst of them!"

1 Timothy 1:15

(Letters of John Newton)

100 things about me update

From my 100 Things About Me post:

#69- I wish I could find my high school friend, Ronald Johnson.

I found him today! :o)

Burned alive for the cause of Christ

I'm trying to imagine such horror. I think about persecution quite a bit. In the present climate of our nation, I fully expect to be persecuted for my faith, if God deems me worthy of such an honor, however I worry that I will bring shame to Him. John Piper's message in this clip helps me to remember that His mercy is new every morning and he will provide the grace that I will need.

Kind of bored...Shhhh...

Don't tell my boys because the rule at our house is, if they say they are bored, then I find work for them to do. Shhhh....I have many things I could be doing. Sewing projects that need finished, a house with a few dust bunnies running around, a garden that could stand a bit of weeding, instead I am sitting here not doing anything of major importance.

Okay...that's enough. I'm going to go get something done today, even if it's only cleaning up the dog do-do in the yard. Now that sounds like fun! NOT! ;o)

In the beginning GOD...

Robins' eggs

I found robins eggs under our tree the other day. As first I was afraid to look at them too closely just in case they had fallen out of the tree due to the bad storm we had and the babies had perished, but after looking closer, it was obvious they had hatched. I had to get my camera and take a picture. I love the color of robins eggs.
