Seeds Family Worship

I am always looking for ways to fill our lives with scripture.  A few months ago, I ran across Seeds Family Worship. They take scripture and put it to music.  We have been listening to it in the car and during meals and I LOVE it!  Scripture memorization is something that I know that I need to do personally, but I am not always that great on following through with it!  Listening to these verses through song has been a wonderful way for me to learn!


How do you memorize scripture?  How do you make scripture apart of your home?

A Return to Blog Land and Other Exciting Updates

Ahhh ... it feels so good to be typing a blog post again!  The last few months have been a roller coaster ride for our family and I have had a hard time blogging.  I know that some out there in blog land say that you shouldn’t ever use your blog as your personal journal, but for me so much of what I write about is an extension of the journey that God has me on and the lessons He is currently teaching me.  The last several months have been full of lessons of patience and trusting that God’s plans for our life is the only plan.  I have been challenged and pushed in regards to loving and encouraging my husband through a difficult time.  In the midst of all of this, I have battled through some thyroid issues that have caused me to trust the Lord for strength in a way I never had before.

So, I can FINALLY tell you that Hal has accepted a job in Houston. He will be returning to the company, Cooper Industries,  he worked with for over 10 years before we moved to Mississippi two years ago when his dad was battling cancer.  It is a bittersweet move for us.  We have felt so loved by our church family at Riverwood Bible Church and have grown so much since we starting attending there last year.  We also have several other dear friends here who have been family to us not to mention that we will be moving away from Hal’s family who are just about an hour away from us now.  Even though we will miss these relationships, this is the best move for our family of four in terms of Hal's work situation.  

He starts on April 30th.  The boys and I will be spending the month of May in Arkansas with my parents and joining Hal in Houston after Memorial Day. Hal will initially be doing some travel so he will fly in and out of Arkansas, so we will at least see him on the weekends!  Our house is on the market and we are praying for patience and wisdom as we navigate the housing market!

How Deep the Father's Love

Yesterday I ran to get groceries by myself while the boys were napping.  I found myself weeping as I listened to this song.  It was so timely to hear it right before Easter. Do you know the Father in this way?  Do you feel the depth of what He sacrificed for you?
