Mercy

When trying to think of something encouraging to post today, I was at a loss until I remembered what has been surely helping me through long days and sometimes tough days. That is this:

"Great is his faithfulness; his mercies begin afresh each morning."  Lamentations 3:22-23

It doesn't matter how awful our day was, what we might have said, who's head we might have bit off, who we failed to forgive yet again, or how lost we may feel. His Mercy's are new each and every morning! Not just on Sunday mornings because that is the sabbath, not just on Monday mornings because He knows we will have a bad case of the Monday's but every morning.

I know I sleep a little better when I lean on that verse and on that promise... as the clock ticks away and I try to avoid sleep, "His mercy's are new each morning", even tomorrow morning when I am forced to open my eyes and face a new day.

InstaFriday!

 The perfect fire made by the guys while we were camping

My silly husband during our break at the lookout while hiking

She is just beautiful

She loves to swiffer



Daddy and Daughter moment, walking into the hardware store, melt my heart!



 Happy InstaFriday :)

Hope you have a fantastic Labor Day weekend, I will probably be MIA and looking forward to it.

Going out to eat.... with a toddler

 So going out to eat with Lydia looks a lot like this ....

Which is why the simple lifestyle of cutting back on dinner out is really not that big of an issue for us at the moment.
