a song of inspiration.......

i can't seem to get it out of my mind ........... i think probably for a very good .... reminder kind of reason ................................. yesterday as i went to pick up one of the littles .......................... a song i have heard before ............ left me with much soul searching ............................ the line in the song (sung by Jason Crabb) ............ "you don't have to walk on water ....... it's how you walk on land " ........................................ my prayer ................. Lord, may i be worthy .............. upright in my thinking & works .......................... keep my eyes focused, on how i walk on land !...................................

................................................... i am blessed !

a touch of sunshine.....

just a few shots of the beautiful sunshine pouring into our home ............
 i love the way, that just for a few special minutes, the ray of sunshine just touches my soul ..........
 on a coverlet hanging on the back of a chair .....................................
 or as simply......... as the lock on the door .........................................
.......................................... i am blessed !
