Happy Sunday!
Things have been crazy around here.
My mom had open heart surgery a month ago – oh boy, I’m not going to give you all the details, but suffice it to say it’s been tough.
Can you see the stress in my face on the day of surgery?
We bought a truck – a life long want of my DH. Yep. It won’t start.
Oh, and I got sick the day my mom came home a week ago, just on the heels of my 63 hour work week.
(I’m not going to show you a picture of me blowing my nose.)
And I’m behind on my blog, our holster business, church work, and house work.
I’ve only been to church once in a month. (totally unheard of)
Family stress. Health stress. Vehicle stress. House stress. Business stress.
I’m not going to give you the line, “When life gives you lemons, make lemonade.” That’s lame and over used.
How about, “Live daily in God’s goodness and give to others in the joy of knowing He is in control.”
I like that better – and not because I said it. It works for me.
So I’m giving away some free word art to you, my peeps.
And This Shall Be a Sign (8×10 JPG)

Why? Because I want to share some blessings…there is blessing in even the most difficult circumstances. Ya just gotta look for them!
And remember:
Grace of God (Also free 8×10 JPG)
The will of God will never take you, where the grace of God cannot keep you.
I totaly understand where you're coming from. My husband had a quad-open heart surgery but he was in his thirties. Because he was young he bounced back fairly quickly but not without being a pain in the butt for a while. I'm sure everything you dealt with was apperciated. Hang in there and don't forget to take care of yourself. Thank you for sharing and linking up to Scraptastic Saturdays. This post has been shared via Facebook, Twitter and Pinterest. Have a wonderful week.
Thanks, Andrea! It’s nice to know someone who’s BTDT!
Val I hope your mom is recovering quickly from her surgery. Thank you so much for sharing your word art with us on Merry Monday.
Thanks, Erlene. Slow but sure, slow but sure.
I'm sorry to hear of all these challenges you've been facing. Continue to trust in Him – and I'll make sure to pray for all of you too.
Thank you so much for sharing (and for linking up to the #SHINEbloghop)!
Wishing you a lovely evening.
xoxo
Thanks for visiting, Jennifer.
