Plans for December

Yay!!! It's officially Christmas season.  

Well for me it started last Friday. I always say that the day after Thanksgiving is when we can start playing Christmas music and say Merry Christmas without being judged. I do hope you all had a blessed Thanksgiving filled with family and much love. 

I am excited to share with you my plans for this month. Each day in December I plan to post something. It will vary but include things like Christmas songs, Scripture photo quotes, book reviews, articles, movie reviews, etc. I hope you all with check back each day. I will be linking all the posts on facebook but feel free to share the posts with family and friends. I am also doing an advent study which I will be sharing every now and then on Instagram. 

I pray for each and every one of you that is reading this. I hope that as we prepare for Christmas that we don't loose sight of the heart of it. Let's remember that Jesus is the reason for the season. 

Blessings and Shalom,

A Season of Thankfulness

As I think about Thanksgiving this week my thoughts go back to how crazy this year has been. I'm thankful most of all for my relationship with Jesus Christ because without Him I would be lost. 

I think about the verse in the Bible that talks about always being joyful, pray continuely, and give thanks in all circumstances. We have so much to be thankful for. God is so good! 

I'm thankful for my parents. They love me and help guide me through life. The give me a place to live, clothes to wear, food to eat, and everything that I need to survive. 

I'm thankful for my sisters Amber and Summer. This past year we have grown closer. I was going through a tough time and they never left my side. They are Godly young women who always know how to encourage me and pray for me. They make me laugh, smile, and I can be completely myself with them. I am comfortable to share my heart. I know if I have a problem I can always count on them. So thankful that they keep me focused and grounded in the Word. One thing for sure is that we all love God and continue to grow in our faith together. They have surpassed being my best friends. They are my family and I couldn't live my life without them. I can't wait to see what is ahead of us and how God will use us to bring more people to know Him. 

I'm thankful for my best friend Jordyn. She's a pretty awesome friend considering she has stuck by me this past year of a rough time I was going through. She's the only one that understands my craziness for knitting and crocheting and anything that has to do with fiber.  I always enjoy our late night chats and that she makes me laugh. I'm thankful that she and I can totally be honest and say things even though sometimes it doesn't make sense. I love that she is my friend. I can't wait to see what other crazy projects lay ahead of us. Where life takes us? I thank God that we are friends and I don't know what I would do without her. 

Remember Give Thanks to the Lord for He is good and His mercy endures forever. So this Thanksgiving remember to give thanks no matter what. I pray you have a blessed day filled with family and friends. 

Blessings and Shalom,
