I have learned to be content whatever the cicumstances. I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plent or living in want. I can do everything thru HIM that gives me strength. Phillippians 4:11-13

Infused..........with love.
Sometimes I have moments where I find my self staring INTO my life from the outside with that Talking Heads song from the 80's song going thru my head....
"You may ask yourself...How did I get here?"
It is always a sureal and wonderful feeling becuase I feel like it is a TESTAMENT to what GOD can do in your life.
I feel like everything I have is a gift.
There were times when my days were dark....
so dark I could not SEE>
Yet...no matter how many "bags" I weighed myself down with ...MY "bags" being -negativity, self-loathing, fear, and loss....
No matter how UGLY my soul was ....
I was WORTHY of H. I. M.!!!
And when he came to me .....I accepted.
Not knowing WHAT the road would look like...not sure what the future would hold....
Nut I KNEW....
It was going to be better than carrying all those heavy "bags" around all day.
LOL
And boy was I right.....
Yesterday we had our FIRST ANNUAL "Friends Feast" at the homestead.
It was amazing.
There was tons of food, friends, laughter, and LOVE.
And as I looked around at each and ever BLESSING that stood before me.....
I heard that song....the talking heads one.
I heard it loud and clear....
And felt the LOVE of GOD surrounding me.
All the smiles and life that we have INFUSED into our life.
All of the sweet babies and loving friends.
All of the fireside chats and the sweet sounds of children on the trampoline.
I felt myself being showered with the LOVE of GOD.
Straight from the hand of God .......as a gift to me.
