What is Your Word for 2017

I have read many blogs about choosing a Bible verse to be your verse for the year.  One that you will memorize, read daily, and live by.  That is a great idea.  Something to focus on in prayer and in how you live - by His Word.  So, did you choose a verse?  Will you share it and maybe even tell us why that was your choice?

I have not chosen a verse this year.  Instead, I am searching for a word.  One word. I have thought about it, I have prayed for a word, I even thought I had one - then I forgot it!!  Lol!  I have a direction I want my life to go - yes, the direction IS toward Christ.  I do want to get closer to Him, be more like Him in action and deed.  I want my heart to be like His heart.  Because I have noticed once in awhile that my heart is hard toward another instead of loving and forgiving.  I have not found the one word I plan to focus on this year.  I plan to do a bit more praying and reading.  I will let you know what word God lays on my heart.  And if you think about it - say a prayer for me to be able to hear God's word to me - to hear all of God's words to me!!!  God bless!!!

Happy Birthday, Love

My sweet, crazy hubby had a birthday, so, of course, I had to make him something to express to him how much I love him!  I have seen different version of "Love Notes" on Pinterest and Debbie Lanning told me about one she saw and that prompted my decision to make my "Love Note" for my Hankster. I wrote a little love note on it for him to find first thing the morning of his birthday.  And a new one each day since. I found the picture frame at Big Lots.  It is a 5x7 plastic frame. It was l.25.  I think it would look better in a pretty decorative frame out of wood, but my budget is small.  BUT I will keep my eyes open for something I like better at thrift stores and change it out once I make the find.  Then I found the scrapbook paper at Michaels for .29.  The dry erase pen was from Big Lots for 1.00.  So looks like I spent under 3.00!  I don't know if you can tell from the picture, but I wrote with a Sharpie on the paper I (heart) you beca...

Christmas! I Love Christmas!

I absolutely love everything about the Christmas season.  There are so many ways we can celebrate Jesus, our Saviour with our friends, our family, and our community.  I want to share with you what has been going on in my little world. For Thanksgiving all our kids were here with us and the day after Thanksgiving the girls and I made wreaths from the grapevines in our yard, collected pinecones and painted some of them.  We painted - we started preparing for our celebrations.  Fun stuff. One evening we went to the boat parade.  Lots of pretty lights, fun decorated boats. and cold weather!  Yes, it was coat and mitten weather in Florida! At Bayou George Christian Church, we ladies had our own awesome start of the Christmas season.  We worshipped together, led by Faye and Libby. We invited Panama City Christian Church and Eastside Christian Church ladies to join our "Christmas Gathering" and we had 38 beautiful women!  It was su...
