:: A Prayer ::

The Lord has brought this song to my mind several times the past few weeks and I felt that I needed to share it with you all today. Let the chorus of this song be a prayer directed to your precious Jesus......

: Almost there, almost where I'm suppose to be :

It's not all clear, still you keep showing me

With every step the more my heart moves to your beat

Just like where I am headed, there's joy in the journey

:: Teach me to think like you think ::

Show me the things that are true

Finish the work that you have started in me

As I'm on my way to you

: Create in me a pure heart and make me new :

Less of me, Jesus more of you

here I stand, still drawn down to my knees

It's not my strength but yours that carries me

:: Teach me to think like you think ::

Show me the things that are true

Finish the work you have started in me

As I'm on my way to you

Lilacs!!

I absolutely loooovvve my lilac bush. It is one of those rare colours that you don't see that often . So Alannah and I went out yesterday afternoon and picked buckets full of them. Last year my bush had very few on it due to a late freeze, but this year it is loaded and I am loving it!

And oh how I looovve the way they fill my entire house with their sweetness and beauty!

I have a vase full of them in almost every room.

Happy Friday!!!!

: It's a new beginning around here! :

I spent much time outside yesterday in the awesome weather and greatly enjoyed photography the emerging birth of so much of God's beautiful creation!

: my strawberries are blooming :

: the "heaven's perfume" tree in my front yard :

: the view from my porch this time of year :

: crabapple blooms :

: one of the three crabapple trees outside my living room window :


I love this time of year!

The air is scented with the fragrance of the blooming trees and everywhere I look I see vivid colour against all of the new green grass!

I am so glad God created colour....
