one thing after another


Wow! I thought small kids made my life busy...young adults are even busier!

I feel blessed beyond anything I could possibly write describing our kids and their latest accomplishments.

Saturday morning we had the privilege of watching both of our kids graduate from college. This blessing came straight from the throne of God. He provided the means, He provided the ability and He provided the unique personalities that drive both of them toward His perfect will for their lives.

None of us ever stop preparing for following God's will. We must be ready - educating ourselves for serving Him wherever we are called, growing in our Biblical knowledge and by taking spiritual maturity steps every single day.

This weekend will remain in my heart forever as one of my favorite, one of my most proud moments and perhaps the most thankful I have ever been since their birth and since I married my husband! Great weekend indeed!

so fast


It went so fast.

Our kids both graduate from college tomorrow.

I ironed their gowns tonight and as I pressed out the wrinkles it felt as if only weeks had passed since I pressed their high school robes.

The speed in which time is passing now picks up daily. This life is quick, and all these huge milestones that feel as if they take so much time to accomplish really don't.

I feel the speed of life right now. It makes me value each minute more. I am fairly certain that the very best things in our life on earth last only minutes.

God is eternal - I wonder if minutes are even a measurement in His eyes?
