Blessings... God gives us the Best and we do not take it

I feel small at times.... then I remember my life is endless Blessings.... I know I feel small because those Blessings also become a major responsibilities! I love everything.... although with a feeling like there should have been a really detailed manual with just being... or is the bible a manual? It must be.... I always know what to do after reading even just one verse! I read it almost daily and encourage my children with God's Word. As I remember memories of my parents teaching me the word.... I am filled with joy I have many oppurtunities to teach the word with my children! I fear God. He has given me everything and more than I have asked for.... honestly, I do not always take it.... if I do not notice the simplicity of life, I get lost in all the things to do and forget about really living! I am too nice... I am too simple... I am too big... etc. My thoughts are taunting.... All of these thoughts came from watching something or hearing something that is another humans opinion and nothing more... why do I care?! God has made me through my parents.... he has made my children through me... that is amazing!!! Is that not enough just to be? Why do I hunger for more of this or that.... the temptations of this world that never last. If I put my love all fully and devoted to God I will be happy! Now, How do I do this? By reading the word... surrounding myself with inspirations... I have been meaning to make more art/cards with photographs and bible verses. I have thousands of photographs.... I think I am ready... what holds me back from accomplishing my Goals. And when I do get a chance to do them why are they never enough? I always start looking for more.... I need to be content. Working through the bad to the good makes everything better! Verses getting everything good from the start to finish... God knows exactly what we need! WOW... I fear God and Love him for everything!

How does this happen?

Here my daughter is.... in deep thought it looks like.... what changes her expression next to the picture below....



.....of Pure joy and happiness!


I believe it is God's work!
AMAZING!!!!

    Thank you for visiting my blog.

    Your photos are wonderful. Your children are beautiful. I smiled seeing the Thomas the Tank Engine shirt, toys in some. My son was very fond of Thomas, too.

    You mentioned Jackson was your home town...I was born in Wyoming as well.

    Dear Hannah, I just read what you wrote a few days ago, it is so beautiful! It is amazing, life I mean. Today my second day of walking first thing in the morning, I was so blessed to be out in the cool grisp air and look to the heavens no matter what the sky looks like I praise him, my loving heavenly father, he is not far, he is in my heart, my thoughts, my breathing, in me. You are blessed among women Hannah to know that God can help you stay content, to be joyful, to change the bad thoughts to good, to look in the face of your Zach or Jasmine and see God's love. For his love is there and in your home because you invite him, you thank him daily and read his word to make it your own! You say you hunger for more of something, you have it all! Just claim it! God does not want you to be unhappy or discontent, he is communicating to you from the moment you open your eyes each day until your mind relaxes and you sleep each night. "Be still and know that I am God". I believe that is a verse in Isaiah, I sometimes will say this to myself when I need calming. I love you Hannah with all my heart and pray that you are blessed knowing life is full of amazing and joy unending, sometimes it is just a realizing of it. Love Mom
