Today

Today has not been peaceful as I had hoped. The boys woke up on the wrong side of the bed and were grouchy. We did some errands and they were even more annoying. I finally got home and sent them out to rake leaves. I have had a few moments to calm down and I was reminded of a verse from the Today's English version of the Bible...most of know it as "Be still and know that I am God"

TEV says,


"STOP FIGHTING", he says, "and know that I am God" Psalm 46:10


Just thought I would share that...sometimes during the holidays, we try and fight our way to a "perfect and happy day" and sometimes, people wake up moody and grumpy and tired. I am going to stop fighting to make it a "peaceful" day and see what comes our way!

Enjoy this season of LOVE! Jesus is the reason for this season! Turn down my playlist and listen to this!
