Counting the days...

Hello blog world! Just thought I'd say hello. I know its been a week or so since I last blogged. I've been a little busy and tired. Still trying to get used to waking up early. I am doing well and very blessed by the time I have being in God's presence. I can't wait to start scrapbooking again. I am also very excited to say that my little sister and her children are coming to visit for a week or 2. Woohoo! I miss her so... I am counting the days till this Sunday when she is supposed to be here. Other than that, all is well. I am also glad to announce that I am pretty much all unpacked!!! Yes!!! I will eventually try to post some pictures of my new home. It's still in the making... Most of my walls are still bare. Yes, I am afraid of piercing my walls. lol... But slowly I will make it our house or home. Well, that is all for tonight. I need to get my butt in bed. Have a blessed night.

In His love,
Leslie

Garage Sales here we come!!! lol...

Hello friends! Okay so I will stop counting the days now. Today was a very blessed day. The kids and I woke up early to have a garage sale day out with grandma. We also wanted to let daddy sleep in. We had so much fun and found a couple of great deals. Nothing big, just a few barbie clothes and my daughter got her first set of maybe 7 Kelly dolls. I've never heard of them till now, but they are adorable. She love them and was blessed. Well, I know its not much to share, but its something. So, I am hoping that I will be able to post pictures soon. Not sure when, but soon. Okay, I hope y'all have a blessed night. God bless!

What can I say?

Well, its day 2. I am feeling sluggish. I woke up at 6:45am and decided I was too tired and went back to bed. Work up late and well... Thank God for His mercy and grace. I did get to spend time in the word. Hurray!!! I've been feeling achy everywhere today. Hmm... I guess its Friday. Well, folks that's all for today. Maybe I'll get a burst of energy tomorrow. God bless your weekends!

Why choices???

Hello friends and good morning once again!!! I am so excited! It's day 2! I woke up at the first sound of my alarm and got up to my my hubby coffee and breakfast. I also had my VERY blessed time with the Lord. The Lord is awesome!!! As I continued to read through Genesis 2, I was reminded of how we all have choices we are free to make. Yes, freedom of choice. I read how Eve had the choice to eat of the tree of knowledge of good and evil. She made the choice to fall into temptation and NOT obey what God commanded. Oh, we can ALL relate to that. You may ask why. Why did God put the forbidden tree to begin with? Why did He allow the serpent to tempt her? Well, I believe that God does not force us to love and obey Him, which by the way is the greatest commandment. "Jesus said to him, “ ‘You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind." Matthew 22:37 We all have that choice. Chuck Smith says in his notes, "How would God know you truly love Him unless you had a choice? How else would He know you truly want to obey Him unless you had a choice?" I am thankful that the Lord gives us the choice. I choose to follow Him. I choose to obey Him. How about you? There is no other way. My friends, I will tell you that life without Him is nothing. I have been down the road in that gutter. The Lord's love, mercy and grace saved me. Many of you might have known me in my past and know what was of me. I tell you that God love is genuine and everlasting. Some of you today may be in search for love. Real love! He is the answer. Some of you may be searching for peace, He is the prince of peace. You may also ask, how can one have peace in times like these? All I can say it's a miracle. You can only experience with Jesus in your lives. Peace in times like these... Yes! You too can have that. Hope? That too! "But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law." Galatians 5:22-24
So, I choose Jesus! How about you? I pray that the Lord may reveal Himself to you and that you may experience His love, mercy, grace, peace and ALL that He is for you. May God bless you.

In His love,

Good morning!!!

GOOD MORNING!!! Yes! I am awake! For those of you who know me, this IS a BIG deal. lol... Since our move to our new home I have gotten out of my routine. Yes, that can be a good thing sometimes... but, in my case it wasn't. For a while now I have been trying to get up early enough to make my hubby coffee and breakfast and also spend my VERY much needed time with my heavenly Father. Thank you Lord for allowing it this morning and being my strength. So, I had to actually put my alarm in my bathroom so I can physically get up and wake up. lol... Yes, to that extreme since I am a 2 hr snoozer. So, this is the fist day on this if I could call it journey. I pray that the Lord would help me and be my strength. There is nothing more beautiful than being still before Him in the stillness of the early morning. I have miss this for so long now. I will say this, sacrificing a little or what is a lot to me (SLEEP) brought such a great blessing. Just to share a little, I decided to go back to the beginnings. Back to Genesis! I am reminded of God's glory all around me. He is awesome!!!

"Then God said, “Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.” So God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them. Then God blessed them, and God said to them, “Be fruitful and multiply; fill the earth and subdue it; have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over every living thing that moves on the earth.” Genesis 1:26-28

I pray all of you will have a blessed day!

A quick hello...

Hello friends!!! It has been a long long time since I've been on my blog. Yes, I left my blog for facebook, but I will admit that I miss my blog so much. It's not quite the same. So much has been going on since last time I was here. I will however have to catch up some other time since someone else needs to use my computer. Well, have a good night. God bless you all!
