Sunday Sonlight

 Praise God for Sundays!! 
The day we rise early to get ready for Sunday School and Church services. A day of no work unless absolutely necessary. Visiting family and friends. Enjoying God's awesome creation. Fellowship, worship, instruction, healing, praise, and so much more when we GIVE GOD this day!! 




"And behold, the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top tothe bottom; and the earth did quake, and the rocks rent; 
And the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints which slept arose,
And came out of the graves after his resurrection, and went into the holy city, and appeared unto many."         Matthew 27:51 -53





Praise God for that access to God we were granted, through Jesus Christ!!
Jesus paid the price for our sin and through faith in Him we can enter with full assurance, knowing we have been cleansed for our iniquities. We can hold fast to God's promises, knowing he can be trusted, encouraging one another in love and good deeds. 


The reality that we have been sanctified by the blood of Jesus and declared holy before God should motivate us to draw nearer to God. As we spend more time with Him, living a life pleasing to Him, we become increasingly like Him. God changes us from the inside out when we yield to His Spirit.

Pinwheel Sampler

  We are finally settling into school and our daily routine once again around our home. The weather is absolutely gorgeous with blue skies and warm days. 

Yes, the past two weeks I've gradually found my way into my little sewing room and wadded through the unfinished projects. 

First, I just had to make a cute little baby bib for a shower gift.


Next, I tackled the piecing for the blocks in the Pinwheel Sampler.



We've been enjoying the abundance of fresh fruit like peaches and blueberries!!
Making pies, jellies, and freezer jam....yummy!!

    Enjoyed a little day trip on the Blueridge Parkway....beautiful scenery!!
