God Is On The Throne

It is Saturday morning, November 7.  It is now being announced on major news stations that Joe Biden is now president-elect and will be the next President of the United States.  My heart is heavy.  I am grateful for the four years of leadership under President Trump.  I hardly know how to process it all so that is all I will say.


Thank you for being the most pro- life president we have had.  Keep praying America will turn to God!


Finally, we got the second set of bunk beds after having to cancel the first order that never left the warehouse and reordering.  They arrived Wednesday and Sierra put it together after school.



Love the fall time!


Ever feel you just need a little more cheer?  I'm feeling that.  Just wanted to have a little Christmas cheer this week.
Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer :)


And of course, a little Bing Crosby never hurts anything!


I tried a new recipe - Mushroom Pasta Carbonara.  I feel it was very tasty and easy to make and am going to add this in my keeper recipes.  I'll share the recipe in a new post. :)


Friday we did school and I worked on a few office type things.  Closing some accounts, changing addresses and payment info for accounts, paying bills, etc.


Had to run to the bank to deposit a check...ran to fill up the water jug and get gas and decided to get a holiday drink at Starbucks - peppermint mocha.  It was a cool and rainy day and perfect for a warm drink.

Chicken, broccoli and stuffing casserole for dinner.  Mmm!


Beautiful sunset Friday.


Watched a cheesy 90's Christmas movie - I'll Be Home for Christmas.


Saturday morning.  Foggy morning.  Pretty. :)

You May Abound In Hope

Today I completed a devotional book by Candace Cameron Bure.  100 Days of Joy and Strength.  I was struggling last night.  Darkness seemed to overwhelm me.  The last day of this devotional gave me exactly the encouragement I needed to go another day. Here are the verses she shared from God's Word. "I wait for the Lord, my whole being waits, and in His word I put my hope."  Psalm 130:5 "We are afflicted in every way, but not crushed; perplexed, but not driven to despair; persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed;"  II Corinthians 4:8-9 "As for me, I watch in hope for the Lord, I wait for God my Savior; my God will hear me.  Do not gloat over me, my enemy!  Though I have fallen, I will rise.  Though I sit in darkness, the Lord will be my light."  Micah 7:7-8 "I remain confident of this; I will see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living.  Wait for the Lord; be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord."...

Ten Tips for Sunday School Teachers
