New Year, New Hopes

I don't know about you, but I was so grateful when the calendar switched to 2021. Even though the covid pandemic is still here, the vaccines have arrived, we have a new President & VP, and artists are dropping new music. God is good, there is a light at the end of the tunnel. Here are the top 5 tunes that are giving me hope right now.

1) Great You Are by Jordan Smith

2) Rescue by Lauren Daigle 

3) Angels We Have Heard (Glory Be) by Jordan Smith

4) Amazing Grace (My Chains Are Gone) by Pentatonix

5) No Longer Slaves by Jonathan David/Melissa Helser

Autumn Reflections

What can we say 9 months into 2020... From racial justice protests and vigils/memorials to historic wildfires & the smoke they brought... In times like these, we look to God, and can still find beauty and joy. With autumn comes rain, something I think everyone is grateful for this year...

Spring Is Still Blooming

Just because we're all staying home due to covid19 doesn't mean the world is ending. Spring is still blooming, and God is still good. Here are a couple of examples of God's beauty from my neighborhood this last week.

Testing The Cat - Literally

 

My Betty White rose bloomed bundles a day before it was supposed to rain, and my Oklahoma rose finally had its dark red flowers (instead of purple) so I had to make a bouquet to keep them from water damage. (I also gave clippings of the Betty White to a good 4 neighbors, and it still has buds on it...) Gotta love a rose bush! I'm hoping by putting the vase behind the dish rack the cat won't be tempted to knock it over. But we'll see!
