The Waiting Process...

 

Enjoying The Last Portion Of Winter

It's not quite spring and we will surely get some more snow,

But I have faith that the crocus flowers will appear again!

One thing that has always brought me calm and peace;

Is my HOME

Sometimes cleaning and meal preparation,

Even washing dishes, or tidying up a room

is a healing balm to my soul.

Sometimes we can get anxious in the waiting process.

But actually it is in this waiting process, we grow.

We can keep busy and occupy while we wait:

As a homemaker, I can get a job that needs attending to

and get busy and as they say getter done (smiles)

Some days it seems the term puttering around the 

Home is a bit more accurate.

The world appears to be in a stage I do not recognize.

Keeping oneself calm and at peace can be challenging!

Watching too much news is not wise;

Don't talk about politics or world affairs with people

who do not agree with your belief in Christ?!

As it seems to lead to almost a verbal lashing.

Yet, we can talk to others about our faith and Christ!

Remember the government is on His shoulders!!

Here are a few quotes we have all heard or read before;

Home is among the holiest words.

A true home is one of the most sacred of places

It is a sanctuary into which men flee from the world's perils and alarms.

It's a resting place to which at the close of the day,

The weary retire to gather new strength,

For the battles and toils of tomorrow.

It is the place where love learns its lessons,

where life is schooled into discipline and strength,

Where character is molded.

By J.R. Miller 

As the years pass, I'm coming more and more to understand

That it is the common everyday blessings,

Of our common everyday lives for which we should be

Particularly grateful.

They are the things that fill our days with comfort and our hearts with gladness.

By Laura Ingalls Wilder

Keep watch over your Heart and Home...
