Loving Life

So this week has been a really revealing one in my life. I have went from excited to tired to sad to humbled and everywhere else in between. But thank God it has been a great week all the same!!

I finally this week got into my favorite little shop in the world, Cottage Knits http://www.cottageknits.com/! I am so excited to start my Christmas projects, but right now I am working on a purse/bag. I can't decide what I want to do with it yet, but its still fun making it!

I am also reading a book that is an awesome guide to being a Christian homemaker. It's called "The Bride's Book of Ideas, A Guide to Christian Homemaking". Some of the info is a little outdated but the principles and ideas are so solid! I wish that I would have had it whenever Dave and I first got married! I recommend it for any and every wife/newlywed. It will challenge you to be better. Well I will leave you with some scriptures that I have been pondering on!

"I say this because I know what I am planning for you, says the Lord. I have good plans for you, not to hurt you. I will give you hope and a good future."
Jeremiah 29:11


How true! Whenever I sit and think about why some things are happening the way they are or why do I even have to deal with this problem or issue, I sit and think about this and it makes me realize time and time again how big God is and how much I need to trust Him and that He loves me and protects me!

" The man who finds a wife finds a good thing; she is a blessing to him from the Lord."
Proverbs 18:22

This is a scripture that is deep in me! I want to be a blessing to my husband. I want to give him honor and glory. What a privilege it is to be a wife, why not strive to be the best one by honoring him and submitting to him!

Until next time! God Bless You!
