Blessings – Life With My Sister

Jesus Laughs

This photo popped up on Instagram last week and it has consumed me ever since. Shocker, huh? Jesus laughs. Who knew? If you think this is irreverent than you need to click off here right now because your holy toes are about to get stepped on. We always see the stoic Jesus or the woundedContinue reading “Jesus Laughs”

How to Start A Blessing Jar For Free

I just love to do fun crafty things. I also love to focus on blessings when and if possible…we all know those times can be hard though. So, a few years ago I started a blessing jar for the year. I cut some paper into strips and put it in the jar with a pen.Continue reading “How to Start A Blessing Jar For Free”

Give Thanks From A Grateful Heart

Today we are eating it up and giving thanks for the blessings we so often take for granted. It makes me think of this sweet song that my girl Paige sang at our wedding in 2003. What a wonderful memory and beautiful lyrics. I hope your day is full of gratitude and blessings. There’s nothingContinue reading “Give Thanks From A Grateful Heart”

Open Skies

This morning I was finishing up my run and this song came on my ipod. I have heard it a zillion times, but this morning it was rather refreshing. It IS so wonderful to be here now. I hope your Friday feels wonderful! Abby

This Place

I debated sharing my heart about this, but I just have to. I want all of you (whoever you are…we know we have lots of lurkers and we are thrilled you like us!) to feel my heartbeat at this amazing, scary, fun, life-altering, God-given and stressful time in my life. Tomorrow is my last dayContinue reading “This Place”

A Blessed Life

Here is one last blessing for the week. It is a little deeper than the three previous ones I have posted. I am blessed to have the life I have. I know, it sounds silly and a little crazy coming from the girl who has been a basket case these past few weeks, but yesterdayContinue reading “A Blessed Life”
