Old Mother Hubbard went to the cupboard...

We are enjoying full cupboards, Thank you Jesus! I must think of a rhyme for this season of plenty, which we are enjoying. I must remember how God so richly provided for us in this season of time we thought might be lessened.
Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God. God is here with us. He stands with us through the toils and trials. He stands with us through the moves that make us learn to be at home here. It is a land flowing with milk and honey. We just have to find a container to put the milk and honey into.
North Carolina is about taking your time, putting on your make up. Thinking about the details of life, the rat race is so much slower that you have a little time to think about the enjoyment of time with these loved ones.
My children are growing up so quickly and there are so many things that I want to tell them that I am at the computer often to get it down to them.
The lesson, over the weekend was be not forgetful to entertain strangers for some have entertained angels unawares. We did have another angel over our house this weekend. Enoch's sunday school teacher came over and God sent a special day of peaceful enjoyment with the company. I have seen that God has a special blessing with each extra effort towards obedience to him in any spiritual discipline. We got so much more than we gave in hospitality. The next generation is full of some people who have tasted that the Lord is gracious and have alot to give to the service of Christ in the churches. I was encouraged at the testimony of the grace of God in this young man's life and encouraged that God is using these young people in my children's lives for His own glory. God is so good!
