We are all here. This day we have life and breath.
This day we have the strength and grace we need.
We are living life.
Blessings upon blessings!
None of us knows what a day will bring forth.
None of us knows what will happen next.
We make our plans. But, God orders our steps.
It's easy to assume that the details of life
will go on as they do now.
will go on as they do now.
But, we do not know if we will be given our next breath.
We are not in control of our destiny.
We do not have ultimate control of anything, actually.
So, we live life. And, enjoy the moments.
They truly are gifts.
Gifts directly from the Hand of God.
This post is a mix of all the run-of-the-mill blessings of the every day.
They are random and run together one after
the next ~ just like the moments of our lives.
I captured Emma one morning reading in bed ~
It's her new favourite. :)
"Please Mummy, may I make waffles for lunch?" Of course!
Doin' school in the living room...
...and in the school room...
...and in the office/school...
all while furniture is being constructed ~ Yippee for Ikea!
The Learner got his *N*!
Me...with paintbrush in hand,
and painting clothes on ~ getting more things done!
Yippee for tape that works ~ nearly perfectly!
Emma's books at the front door ~ just in from music lessons.
Fraser and Emma reading History together ~ Emma was taking notes. :)
A family games night ~ complete with Twizzlers.
My fire builder...
...and one of his fires. :)
My leaf raker...
...and the leaves before they were all gone.
What a blessing it is to know that our times
are in the LORD's Hands. His ways are perfect.
We have nothing to fear. Everything to hope.
Every reason to rejoice!
May HE give you His peace and presence
each step of the journey!
With Love, Camille
