Sometimes, waiting or sacrificing things is actually just opening the door for God to grant us the desires of our hearts in a spectacular way...

The First Day of Fall

I just love this day... it is the day I pull out my fall decorations and fill the house with fragrant smelling pumpkin spice candles...

It is a day I reflect on the goodness and plenty God has so richly bestowed...

A day for pumpkins and mums... they just give me a smile... I have become so sentimental about them... they grace my door and home.

Pumpkins


My sweater becomes my old friend again...a comfortable second skin... warming me through the chilly mornings and evenings.

I enjoy the scent of apple cider...warming my hand in my favorite mug.

Anyone who knows me well, knows I am looking for a pumpkin patch to wander through... is there anything more wonderful than children seeking out a perfect pumpkin in the brisk fall air?

These are simple things that fill my heart with joy and thankfulness...

"I have come so that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly"
John 10:10b
