It's March 1st! February is gone. Wow, how time flies! Our internet has been down this past week so I haven't been able to post lately. I'm sending this quick post from my phone.
My week has felt like a whirlwind so far but at the same time it has been good. It has been filled with lots of children and smiles! I am learning that it is so important to just stop and cherish the little moments: baby cousins taking their first steps; blowing bubbles, going on "a hike" and having a picnik with a little cousin who is not quite so little anymore; listening to my parents sing and play hymns and songs that are so dear to my heart; tears filling eyes while listening to the prayer of a little boy whose prayer sounds more like its coming from the mouth of a mighty man of God than a 5 year old; a roomfull of kids reciting verse after verse of scripture from memory; being a little girl again and building a fort on a rainy day with 2 sweet kiddoes who I have missed dearly; capturing memories on camera with those same kiddoes; quiet moments with my Savior; thinking and smiling about the future with soon to be roommate if the Lord wills; watching a whole field bloom with purple wildflowers; sweet hugs from new friends; moments of learning from people of God much wiser than me; laughter; a heart that smiles again; and last but certainly not least ~ overflowing thankfulness to my Abba Father after reflecting on sooo many blessings and moments of joy....God is faithful. Always.
"In moments like these,
I sing out a song,
I sing out a love song to Jesus
In moments like these,
I lift up my hands,
I lift up my hands to the Lord
Singing I love You Lord
Singing I love You Lord
Singing I love You Lord
I love You"
~Moments Like These
Love in Him,

Hey, sweet friend! Little moments are indeed the best and sometimes sweetest one's in which our Savior moves our lowly hearts to sing His praise. Sounds like you are going to have a bucket full of memories to cherish and bring for a rainy day this fall. :) I so look forward to watching God work in our lives and am humbled by his grace in allowing us to meet. Hope your weekend is as sweet as your week sounds like it was! ♥
