A Year of Gratitude - Being alive

2012 is going to be spectacular!
Know how I know?


The Lord has been working all my life just so FINALLY I would get here.

Where is here?

Putting me in a place where "living large" on a retirement budget
means looking to Him in a much deeper way than I thought possible,
every day!

"Take delight in the Lord and he shall give thee the desires of your heart".

I am so delighting in Him right now, right here where I am.

I am excited
I am grateful
I am convinced this year is gonna be awesome.
Because boy are we truly relying on HIM.

Have a beautiful day!
From my heart to yours, may your day be blessed. Lynn

Hi Lynn, beautiful photos today! So many of my friends are going through some budgeting and simplifying challenges this year. Retirement plans are really being effected, and so many are finding it difficult. Everyone has worked so hard and planned and thought all their bases were covered. It has been hard for many of them to accept. Your positive attitude and determination is an inspiration! I hope that things get better real soon and until then just know that your wonderful attitude is a blessing to all. Delisa :)

Yes, when we look at what might happen, could happen, we have to know grace is there for us. Love the warm beach photos, it is 28 here tonight and freezing in our old house!

I just saw a quote I loved and know you will love it for this year. "It is not happy people who are thankful, it is thankful people who are happy."
I think this is a post it on the fridge quote for 2012!

Learning to live lean! I am finding that the Lord is pulling me away from the "fat" of this world that I may increase in HIM...I truly related to your message 'going deeper way than thought possible' ...amazing isn't HE!
