Sitting in the swing on the back patio
Bible in my hand
there's a cool breeze blowing
the birds are singing
I just heard the train go through town
the sun is peeping through the trees
the chickens are scratching
there's a dog at my feet
and coffee in my cup
feeling blessed and humbled at the gifts that God has given us
I pray for safe travels and a good weekend for each of you
and may the light of the Lord shine through each of you today.
Have a great weekend.

Perfect post for this holiday weekend.
This was just beautiful. Loved it. Visiting from A Favorite Thing. Wishing you the same. xo
There is so much sweetness in the little every day things, isn't there?
Happy weekend to you!
I am finally old enough to understand the little every day things are what really matters.....thanks so much for visiting. I hope you have a great weekend!
"with Bible in hand"....do you know Beth at Day By Day With Beth Marie? She just found out she has cancer and could use some prayers....and you seem like a person that God would listen to. Could you remember her in your prayers? Thank you.
So happy to hear that you're taking the time to 'count your blessings'. We have been so busy lately and took a break by sitting outdoors yesterday to enjoy the lake. I told hubby that we need to do this more often. Have a great weekend!
Farmhouse hugs,
Cindy
Leave It To Davis.....I will put her in my prayers....thank you for telling me about her. It seems that so many people are sick these days....I found this beautiful prayer....
It's a knock at the door.
It's an invitation in the mail,
a nudge: "Call me."
And when I do,
such sweet relief.
Not a burden, but a bequest:
A bouquet of forget-me-nots,
disguised as pain.
I thank You for keeping me mindful
of that which is greater than me.
You in my sufferings,
in my struggles,
in my sorrow,
raise me higher
with every ache.

You sound like a contented woman!
