Knitting Again

 Last year I started knitting for the first time. I am crocheter so I thought it would be easy, right? Sort of! I want to go fast but have to remind myself to slow down and relax! I noticed that I tightened up and go too fast and screw up. I love to knit, though! I had this preconceived idea that knitting was for snobs, but maybe that's because I was jealous of the results that come from it?! Anyways, I am making a scarf for the season. My goal... well I guess I didn't have one but maybe I should set one! Okay! So, my goal is to have this scarf done by October 28th! Why that date you may ask? Because it is my daughters first birthday and I have a track record of finishing crochet articles on my girls' birthdays! Why not try and do that with this one, too! 

It's been fun but slow! PATIENCE - right? HA! 

Joyful Home Welcomes You! Hi* :)

Crocheting To Bless

Image
Some of the activities that I have been doing in my life, is crocheting. When I start on a project, I'll ask the Lord who He would like for me to bless this time. As I was creating this sweater, I didn't have anyone on my heart until it was finished. A wonderful beautiful 13 year old girl got this one. I love surprising people with handcrafted gifts. It brings so much delight!

Omnipresent God - Attributes of the Most High

 What does omnipresent mean? God is everywhere. His presence is near and permeating. He is passing through the pores or interstices of a substance; human race.  Psalm 139:7-10 (NKJV) talks about the all-present God is with us. God's perfect knowledge of us. "Where can I go from Your Spirit? Or where can I flee from Your presence? If I ascend into heaven You are there, If I make my bed in hell, behold, You are there. If I take the wings of the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea, Even there Your hand shall lead me, and Your right hand shall hold me." What does verse 9 mean? "If I take the wings of the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea..." The spread and speed of light spilling into the morning sky from East to West. Light itself cannot outrun God's presence and knowledge. "Even there Your hand will lead me." His hand is a hand of love and care. His "right hand will hold me" is the hand of skill and stren...

Unsplash-Sixteen Miles Out Today started out a little too early for me but all is well. Emma woke up at 3:00am and didn't want to go back to sleep. Very unlike her, so I know that this will not be a daily routine thing. I did learn a few things through my tiredness hanging out with her and the Lord.  Philippians 4:18,19 (NLT) "...they are a sweet smelling sacrifice that is acceptable and pleasing to God. And this same God who takes care of me will supply all your needs from His glorious riches, which have been given to us in Christ Jesus."  Paul was grateful of the Philippian church that sent him a financial gift of help and he was stating that these gifts were sweet-smelling to the Lord. While I was in the kitchen with Caleb getting my coffee, I smelt a beautiful flowery smell. I asked him, "do you smell that?" He said that he didn't. I said that maybe it is the Lord allowing me to smell it and described the smell as spring flowers. Sometimes sacrifices com...
