My Grandma's House

My favorite place in all the world was my Grandpa and Grandma's house. I felt so loved and so safe. My dad and mom worked so hard and so many hours but my grandparents were retired. They had a huge garden that I just loved.
Life is different now with tv, phones and video games so grandparenting is not what I had always dreamed it would be.
Feeling like I don't measure up to the example I had. Sad!

Slick roads and stuck at home

Trying to focus today on the many promises God has published for us. Promises of grace and mercy.  Some days they seem to be for everyone else. Then a word flew off the page and landed on my heart. II Peter...His "precious" promises. Exceedingly great promises that will never run out and they're for me and you.

Psalm 51:7

Purify me with hyssop, and I will be clean;
    wash me, and I will be whiter than snow.

I have found that what makes using all one color pop is to use different textures.
