To All Homes Trying To Stay AFloat--A Call To Love {Ideas for The Weekend}

To all  homes trying to stay afloat, to all lonely, worn and frazzled mothers looking for a lifeline, and the floundering ones like us who search for how to do what's really important with our time, looking for the lighthouse that guides the way home, this is a call to love, a cry for joy in pursuit of Him... 







Around here it's Saturday morning breakfast around the table and it's little hands grabbing cinnamon rolls and laughter.

Around here we do weekends of everyone helping out in the yard and the sun and working hard is what gets the energy flowing...









In this sacred place we watch kids in rainboots jump and splash in water puddles and it's picnics under the shade tree....





It's remembering weekends of horse-riding with Daddy as a little girl and Papa taking my little girls and teaching them to ride.

On this holy ground we play tag, all six of us and it's bonfires and late nights watching movies...



Around here we do pizza night and Husband paints on canvas and it's little girls listening as Daddy teaches art...



Here it's church on Sunday morning, clothes laid out the night before, and a Southern homemade lunch at Granny's, and sometimes it's staying home to just do Sabbath rest ...



Around here it's moving past lost time and broken opportunities and it's accepting the gift of now and the grace of the unfolding of each new day's promise...

I pray your weekend is full of gifts and His grace...
