Welcome!

My prayer is for you to draw near to God as you wait to be expecting. Whether you are waiting on a child, a change in life or a need to be met, let these words encourage you! "We are enlarged in the waiting. We, of course, don't see what is enlarging us. But the longer we wait, the larger we become, and the more joyful our expectancy."
Romans 8:24-25 MSG

Picture of the Day

"Some wandered in the wilderness in a solitary desert track; they found no city for habitation.
Hungry and thirsty, they fainted; their lives were near to being extinguished.
Then they cried to the Lord in their trouble, and He delivered them out of their distresses.
He led them forth by the straight and right way, that they may go to a city where they could establish their homes.
Oh that men would praise and confess to the Lord for His goodness and loving-kindness and His wonderful works to the children of men.
For He satisfies the longing soul and fills the hungry with good."
Pslam 107:4-9 Amplified

There are many attributes describing God. One could go on-and-on declaring who He is! My two favorites words are 'holy' and 'faithful'. Last year, my husband and I were vacationing in Montana, visiting Yellowstone National Park. (If you like to travel, a must-see on your list!) Leaving at 3:30 am to catch our flight back home, I saw this sign. It was pitch black, once again I said, "Larry stop! I need to take a picture of this sign!" The picture didn't turn out too well, so he 'photoshopped' if for me...I kind of like how it turned out.

Recently in reading a morning devotion the scripture above, for me, aptly fit the picture. On this barren road, one can feel parched; dry, thirsty and empty. But as we daily, come to Him expressing our troubles and longing, He continues to 'lead us forth on the straight and right way'. The Faithful Street. Also, as we continue to praise Him for His good works, (what we have been blessed with now), His goodness and lovingkindness He will fill our longing soul.

He continues to be FAITHFUL, can He be anything else?

Picture of the Day



As much as I Iove to write, (or try to) or find enjoyment reading a good book, where the words are so eloquently strung together, there is just something about a photograph! I thought I'd post some pictures I've taken that caught my eye. At times what I see reminds me of God's love for me or encourages me on this barren road. Hope they'll bring a little brightness into your day too!

Most photos I or my husband have taken are from our travels or just in the front yard. This one on in particular was taken in the Texas Hill Country last spring. We were traveling down the highway and I saw it and said, "Larry stop! Go back, I see something!" capturing it from the car window. You just never know what you'll find out on the country roads!

They say "A picture is worth a thousand words."

What about YOU? I'd love to hear how pictures inspire you. Do you see something in God's creation that reminds you not to give up? Or encourages you on this fertility journey?

Feel free to post a comment!

Life is good, have a fabulous day! Get out and enjoy it!
