"A successful day is one in which
you have stayed in touch with Me,
even if many things
remain undone at the end of the day."
(Jesus Calling)

Hello, I read your blog regularly. Found you a few weeks ago. Just want to say thank you for sharing your faith and thankful heart! Your words are so encouraging to me. Life is very busy isn't it? Thank you for the reminder that it isn't getting everything done that is the most important thing. It is spending time with the Lord and filtering our tasks through a thankful heart. Thank you:)
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting - I'm honored to have you reading here! Yes, reminders are so good - of what is most important, and also of being thankful for everything. These posts are reminders for me, as well!
DeleteCherry,
ReplyDeleteI didn't know that you had a blog! I am so excited to be able to read what you have already written!
I have read Ann Voskamp's book along with the(In)courage.me Bloom book club readers. It was awesome. I should read it again this spring.
Looking forward to renewing our friendship!
