Just a few of my favorite things...

Too often I start feeling that "life isn't fair" - don't you? But that ah-ha moment comes and I realize that my focus shifted from HIM to ME.
 Life's healthy balance between life 'n me, life 'n you, and most important - life 'n God can be realized when you have a grateful heart. 

Things to ponder: Am I secure in the faithfulness of God for my future?
Have I learned to be content with the many things God has already given me?

Please enjoy with me as I reminisce.

 God's love is measureless....

 Walking away from an opportunity to love is walking away from a gift from God.
 Crater Lake, Oregon.
 Rose Garden, Oregon.

 Mt. Rainier, Washington.

 Sunset at Mt. Rainier.
 Do I love pumpkins?
 Jordan Pond, Acadia NP - Maine.
 Love the trails.
 Men in sunglasses...love it!
 Committment - no matter how stormy life gets.
 "Problems are not stop signs - they are guidelines!" R. Schuller.

 Prayer is not so much about our needs, as it is about relationship with God.
