Recently I've been coming across some quotes, and thought they were pretty great--take a look:

Shakespeare-"Love looks with the mind, not with the eyes..."

"You're always changing, either for the Lord, or for men."

"Anything that makes me desperate for God is good."

Bienaventurados....


Bienaventurados todos los que en el confian. Salmos 12:2c
I've been endeavoring to recover some Spanish that I've lost over the last few years. :) I've been memorizing this verse, Psalm 12:2c--Blessed are all those that put their trust in Him. This verse is amazing!! How many times in the day do I forget who I am in Christ, and who God is? When difficulties come, I immediately try to fix it--what can I do to make this better!!?? When God is drawing me to Himself saying, "I'm big enough for this problem--don't you believe that? Don't you trust me? I placed the stars in the heaven, I know when a sparrow falls, I know the very hairs on your head--don't you think I can handle this?" God is amazing! He continues to give me a fresh look at who He is

The Beauty of Spring!! :)

For the Beauty of the Earth, for the glory of the skies...for the love which from our birth, over and around us lies...Lord of all to Thee we raise, this our hymn of grateful praise.

Keep on Keeping on!

1Co 15:58 Therefore, my beloved brethren, be firm (steadfast), immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord [always being superior, excelling, doing more than enough in the service of the Lord], knowing and being continually aware that your labor in the Lord is not futile [it is never wasted or to no purpose].

Quiet Girl by Langston Hughes

I would liken you
To a night without stars
Were it not for your eyes.
I would liken you
To a sleep without dreams
Were it not for your songs
