Rise and Shine, sweet friend!

September is here! Are we so ready for Fall?

Don’t get me wrong, I love Summer! It is my favorite!

However, the smell of Fall is delicious and wonderful!

I think I will spend today getting my pumpkins and Fall decor rounded up.

A little fun change may be just what this home and my heart needs. :)

God has designed me to be a very cheerful, upbeat, and glass half-full kind of girl.

I don’t like to watch any movie or tv show that is sad, or really even read or watch the news. My heart cannot bear it.

I have to tread very lightly over things like this.

However, lately, there have been some tough days with sad news involving very dear friends.

For from him and through him and for him are all things. To him be the glory forever! Amen. Romans 11:36

Rise and Shine, sweet friend!

Guess what?

It is FRIDAY!! Yippee!!

I mean, who doesn’t love a Friday?

Oh friend, I hope you know how much I think of you and pray for you.

You are constantly on my mind and in my heart.

Desperately, I long for you to experience Jesus, intimately, personally, and sweetly.

Many of us have a skewed view of Jesus due to many factors.

We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ. 1 Corinthians 10:5

Fear.

It is a word that has haunted me, shadowed me, hovered over me, and made its home inside of me.

Fear has consumed my mind, my heart, my body. Physically, emotionally, and spiritually.
