A Proud Moment...

Last night, I was having a conversation with my dad.  He was raised Catholic, but isn't practicing.  I do know in my heart that he is a believer in Jesus's existence.  So, he tells me about a moment he recently had with his new girlfriend.  She asks him if he wants to go to church with her and he explains his background.  He mentions that he isn't opposed to it and that he might be willing to give it a chance.  Now, here's the proud moment.  He says, "My daughter and her family are very spiritual.  They raise my grandson that way as well.  They like to go to church and my grandson goes to a Christian school."  Again, I'm proud.  If my dad here on Earth speaks it as though he is proud, then my Father in Heaven must be gleaming.

Here's a cool picture of what I saw when my hubby, son and I left church this morning.  Makes me happy!

Lesson Learned...

Sometimes we wonder why we experience certain events.  This weekend revealed something to me about others.  Pinterest just reminded me.

iHeart The Music Played by...

Guitars.  It's pretty amazing how music can flow from its strings.  I guess it all depends on how it is handled by it's owner.  I relate it to life.  Right now, my guitar is playing some pretty extraordinary music.

• Thank you Lord for your blessings for my husband. I love how his relationship with you continues to flourish.
• Thank you Lord for your blessings for my son.  I love how I am the one you entrusted in his growth.
• Thank you Lord for your blessings for my sister T.  I love how she thanked you today for the blessings in her life.
• Thank you Lord for your blessings for my sister S.  I love how she is looking to you during these difficult times.
• Thank you Lord for your blessings in my life.  I love being reminded that I shouldn't sweat the small stuff, but rather enjoy the BIG stuff all around me.  
• Thank you Lord for my blessings tonight.  

Hmm...

People are interesting. That's all I will say about that.
