One Step at a Time


One step at a time.
That is how God leads us.

Sometimes, we may see a few steps ahead as
God is giving us clear direction for where we should go.

Other times, the path may be confusing.
Too many choices. Uncertain of what His will for us is.

And sometimes it seems the path is invisible,
and we do not have a clue what we are supposed to be doing,
or which way to go.
It seems as if God is not even there, though
we call out to Him for His direction.
But, if we keep moving ahead, trusting Him.......

He will give His direction.
One step at a time.

blessings as you follow Him

Old Bibles


I love old books, and old Bibles are even better.
Not only do you get the lovely aged look of them,
but they are most useful when opened and read.

You can see this one is not that old, or that special,
but it has been read many times and is still great to enjoy.

This second one is a King James version, like the first one is.

Worn with age.
A beauty you cannot buy.

This one a bit older. 1927. (sorry for sideways)

Well worn, and hopefully, words lived by the
person who owned it.

May you be blessed and have His word in your heart.

Am I Kind to God?


"Am I as spontaneously kind to God as I used to be,
or am I only expecting God to be kind to me?

Does everything in my life fill His heart with gladness,
or do I constantly complain because things
don’t seem to be going my way?"

An excerpt from
My Utmost for His Highest.

The Love of God

I love how God uses little things to show
us more of Him.

This morning:

Got up late
Car windows iced up.
Late for an appointment.
Could not find keys.

My sweet fella says,
"They're in the car".
I looked in question at why he would say that.
How would he know they were in the car?
(you have to know here that I have left
my keys in the car overnight before.)
He said he knew they were in the car
because he was warming up the car for me.

That small thing made me feel so loved and cared for!

As I drove off tears began to fall.
And I thought how much God loves us and how
He shows us His love every day, in so many ways.
How He takes care of us, and sends
His angels to surround and protect us.
How he sends friends when we need help,
and a shoulder to cry on when we need it.

Lord, help me to see the small things you
do every day to show your love for me.
Fill my cup so that I might share the love you give me, with others.

Blessings to you all
