Merry Christmas!
This is our last stop on my trip down memory lane of our Advent season. I thank God for what he taught us during this incredible time of the year. My words are not adequate enough to express my gratefulness for the gift of His Son. My heart kneels in awe at the manger...the Glory of Almighty God wrapped in a precious baby.
Thanks for visiting my blog :) I love the butterflies. We released butterflies at my baby boy's funeral and they hold a really special place in my heart.
I love butterflies! Their surprise appearances in our urban environment fill my heart with sweet and sudden joy...just like catching glimpses of our Savior's glory. I don’t want to miss His splendor and magnificence and power in the unexpected places… in the midst of daily living.
He’s teaching me to watch for sneak peeks of Him throughout the day…His hand at work…His beauty displayed…His peace that calms…His power that moves…His touch that heals.
I’m a homeschooling mom of 7 in the heart of the city, married to an urban church planter and just a regular girl following an astounding King. Thanks for joining me in my blog as I watch in anticipation for butterflies in the city and glimpses of His glory.
May the God who gives endurance and encouragement give us a Spirit of unity among ourselves so that with one heart and mouth we may glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. Romans 15:5~6
