“For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.”
Jeremiah 29:11
Sorry it has been awhile – feels like ages – maybe a week?
We’ve made it to our next destination which happens to be New York (upstate) and so for today, I share with you some of the beauty of God’s earth and the blessings this area is already affording us.
A haven for our weary souls (church house) while we wait for our rental home to be ready.
A peace with the views God is affording us.
So many wonderful things to be grateful for. My body is worn down from this move but my soul is at peace knowing in the midst of life, God has never left us!
I continue to stay in touch with our church in Florida as I am grateful for FaceTime and the ability to sign the services for my deaf friends.
I’ll be back in the near future to regularly posting what I hope is some encouraging words for you all.
For the beauty of the earth,
For the glory of the skies,
For the love which from our birth
Over and around us lies—
For the wonder of each hour,
Of the day and of the night,
Hill and vale, and tree and flow’r,
Sun and moon, and stars of light—
For the joy of human love,
Brother, sister, parent, child,
Friends on earth and friends above,
For all gentle thoughts and mild—
For Thy church that evermore
Lifteth holy hands above,
Off’ring up on every shore
Her pure sacrifice of love—
Lord of all, to Thee we raise,
This our hymn of grateful praise.
