a beautiful display of artwork. . . .

I found this old window in someones trash a few weeks ago.  It sat in the corner of my dining room, until yesterday.  Last week my kids made two beautiful pieces of art, I had them standing on the fireplace until yesterday, when I got an epiphany (I get those every now and then)!  I grabbed the glass-less window, strung a wire in it, snipped the ends off two long clothes pins, clipped my kids artwork inside the frame, and hung it on the wall!

I love it and so do they!

a "must" read. . .

Just finished this book, yesterday.  This is the second book I've read by author, Donald Miller.  Here are a few quotes I took note of:

"if we are not willing to wake-up in the morning and die to ourselves, perhaps we should ask ourselves whether or not we are really following Jesus"

When you go to meet someone, pray that God will help you feel His love for them.  Ask God to make it so both conversations, the one from the mouth and the one from the heart, are true."

These are just a few of the quotes I gleaned from this book!  If you haven't read it yet, take a day and "do it"! you won't be disappointed!
