"Lord, this humble house we'd keep, sweet with play and calm with sleep. Help us so that we may give beauty to the lives we live. Let Thy bounty and Thy grace shine upon our dwelling place." E. A. Guest

Life

I'm back....
Life has been quite busy for us lately, bringing about changes that mean making some adjustments in our self-sufficiency plans.
Certain things we tried have not worked out while others have been a pleasant success.
We have had to learn to be more flexible and teachable over the past few months.
And to be more patient and humble.
To enjoy the hustle and bustle of harvest
and the silent waiting too.
We have discovered that seasons are very much like people,
having personalities and moods that are unique and yet familiar.
That nothing can or should be taken for granted
for things can change from one week to the next,
but that's ok.
That's "life".
And life is a living thing
a moving thing
a growing thing
a gift of great blessing and beauty in all it's varied seasons!
