Faithful Reflection~

Motivational Monday~

As we enter into the new year, many of us have organization on our mind. I stumbled upon these quotes on Pinterest, and thought I'd share them with you all. Just a few things to ponder this week.

Happy Monday!

It's time to panic~The South is expecting SNOW!!!

They have been predicting it all week, snow is coming to Atlanta!  Sound the alarm, or better yet...make that mad dash to the grocery store for milk and bread.  Ok, gotta be honest...having grown up in the north (NY) and also being married to someone from the north (MI), we don't get it.  Salt for the sidewalk/driveway, firewood, water...get it!!!  Milk and bread, not so much.

This is pretty much what  every grocery store in Atlanta looks like right now, or did last night.  This is the plus side of being gluten free AND dairy free, not panicking because we can't eat it.  A girlfriend joked that she wondered how many would make the switch because it's all that is still available! LOL

And, this pretty much sums up what drivers down here look like when that first snowflake falls.  I am thankful that this go round they are closing or calling schools early and most are heeding the warning to stay home. We DO NOT, I repeat, we DO NOT need a repeat of Snowpocalypse here in Atlanta.  My daughter was stuck in her truck for 7 and a half hours.  Mind you, she had no problem driving in it as she had her Hummer at the time.  It was all the other crazy people and trucks blocking the roadway, causing the problems. She couldn't navigate around them. My sweet friend Amanda's, Dixie Delights, husband was stuck in his car for 24 hours people.  He eventually walked the rest of the way home.  It was INSANE and scary.  

I pray all heed the warnings and STAY HOME.  

This pretty much sums it up.

To all my fellow Atlanta/Georgia bloggers and friends, stay safe and warm!  To our Northern friends, we don't blame you for your uncontrollable laughter at our expense. 

To Northside Hospital, Atlanta's "baby factory", consider yourself warned...October 2017 is going to be a busy month ;-)

Happy New Year~Prayer for 2017

Have a Blessed Sunday Friends!

Reflections~

I am sure those of you who are on Facebook have seen these.  The test that finds your life quote. Many have shared their results, and have found the quote chosen for them could not be more perfect. I have to agree.

Over the years, I have experienced the hurt that comes with trying so hard to retain certain relationships, mostly friendships, only to find that I am the only one "trying".  With age comes wisdom, and I have to agree with the quote below. Those who cherish and value you as a person and friend will ALWAYS keep a place in their heart and lives for you.

I truly believe that each of us need to hit the "reset" button every now and then.  God allows for do-overs...sometimes the path we have been on is not a part of His plan at all.  And, other times he throws a fork in the road to help us grow.

Have a blessed Sunday my friends.

Prayer for Today~

I just love this prayer found on Unveiled Wife , and wanted to share each with you today.  With Mother's Day approaching I pray you each find strength in His love for you.

Happy Sunday everyone!!

Saying Goodbye & Reflections~

While I haven't lost anything, I have chosen not to return to teaching my littles next fall.  Today was hard, and tomorrow will be even harder as I say my goodbyes knowing a new group of sweet faces will not be awaiting me come September.  But, I know God has a purpose and a plan for my not renewing my commitment.

I stumbled upon this quote on Pinterest today, meant for me?  I am sure He thought so.

When one door closes another opens.  He has a perfect plan and purpose in mind for each one of us that starts the day we take our first breath here on earth.  We only need to listen, and follow His calling...sometimes it is just a gentle nudge, sometimes it feels more like a sledge hammer!

I am excited to see where this next chapter will take me, and look forward to sharing it with all of you.

Happy Easter

So much to be thankful for today!  I pray you all have a blessed day with loved ones.

Happy Easter!
