While I Am Waiting

I'm waiting, I'm waiting on You Lord
And I am hopeful, I'm waiting on You Lord
Though it is painful, but patiently I will wait

And I will move ahead bold and confident
Taking every step in obedience

While I'm waiting I will serve You
While I'm waiting I will worship
While I'm waiting I will not faint
I'll be running the race even while I wait

I'm waiting, I'm waiting on You Lord
And I am peaceful, I'm waiting on You Lord

Though it's not easy no, but faithfully I will wait
Yes, I will wait

And I will move ahead bold and confident
Taking every step in obedience

While I'm waiting I will serve You
While I'm waiting I will worship
While I'm waiting I will not faint
I'll be running the race even while I wait

I will move ahead bold and confident
I'll be taking every step in obedience, yeah

While I'm waiting I will serve You
While I'm waiting I will worship
While I'm waiting I will not faint

And I will serve You while I'm waiting

I will worship while I'm waiting
I will serve You while I'm waiting
I will worship while I'm waiting
I will serve You while I'm waiting
I will worship while I'm waiting on You Lord

I will serve You while I'm waiting
I will worship while I'm waiting
I will serve You while I'm waiting
I will worship while I'm waiting

I have never been good at waiting, but that is where I am right now.  In fact that is where my home church is right not...in a state of waiting.  We are an impatient people, but we must not get ahead of God's plan, and we can't get discouraged while we wait upon Him.  He has a great plan and deserves our worship even when we don't understand why we have to wait.

Wreaths

Been doing some wreath making here lately.  Here are a few of my creations.

Tennessee

Welcome to the state of Tennessee.

While in Jackson, we did a little of Brian's favorite pastime - flea marketing.  It's like visiting a free museum - with lots of things from our childhood.

Jackson is most famous for Casey Jones - we always visit the Country Store at the Casey Jones Village and this time we had a little ice cream, some fudge and a good game of checkers.

Vacation Time

Vacation time. Hitting the road. Spending time with family. Good times and memories that last a lifetime.

Happy Anniversary

Nineteen years ago my best friend became my husband.  We have been through a lot over the years.  There have been so many blessings I could never list them all. God blessed us with not only each other, but two wonderful children. We have had our share of bad times as well, but the truth is that I love him more today than the day we married, and if I had the choice, I would do it all again. After all this time, he is still my best friend, and I look forward to whatever future God has in store for us.

Patriotic manicure.

Princess Purple Toe

Skylar the graceful one fell at VBS yesterday. Now her toe is all hues of purple.

First full day of summer. Full moon shining bright.

Relaxing. This is how I unwind at the end of the day. Reclined in a lounge chair, book in hand while taking in the view from my front deck. Sometimes I even get to enjoy the company of my dear sweet hubby. Good times.

Fort Cooper

The carefree days of youth.  The kids built this fort in the living room today.  Sometimes I wish I could build a fort and hide there for a few days. Think anyone would notice?

Follow Through

Let me jump up on my soapbox for a minute.  When you take on a position, whether you were asked or you volunteered, that requires you to be responsible enough to follow through with plans that you must make, then do it.  Don't blame those who might be above you for not making things happen.  If it is your job, then do it.  It is not always someone else's responsibility to take charge and make your ideas happen.  If all you want to do is come up with grand ideas and not follow through with them, then don't accept the position. And if you do accept the position, be willing to accept the blame for the job not getting done rather than trying to make someone else look bad.

I will get off my soapbox now...but I reserve the right to jump back on anytime.

Renewed

Finally renewed my library card today. I love to read and see no reason to pay for books when there are so many available from the public library.

First Harvest

Brian picked his first peppers of the year.

Recycle!

Project of the day...I recycled an old shirt into this messenger bag.

Pinterest Project

Pinterest project completed. Oatmeal container covered with contact paper holds two rolls of toilet paper perfectly.
