Durning the 40 days of Lent

If you haven't been to my sister, Mary's awesome Blog you must stop by.  She shares her heart and love for our Abba Father each day, and you have to see the paintings she's doing...it's a wonderful experience seeing how God is working in her life....  http://asplendidadventure.blogspot.com/
(oh btw there's some pictures of a crew and actors at her home while they were filming a movie to be aired in Jun...check it out)

There's  another blog I'd like to share with you too...Mary and I went to  the Potter's House Retreat last October where we felt the presence of God all around us, and learned the value of truly listening to God.  Pat Miller and Nancy Williamson were two awesome leaders of the Retreat...we all became sisters in Christ too.  Well Pat has a blog where she's sharing her journey of the 40 days of Lent.  You don't want to miss all she is sharing there either.

As I've been reading thru Matthew Mark and Luke this Lenten Season I've discovered somethings about myself I'm not too proud of.  I've allowed other things to come before my quiet time with my Abba Father so I ask for forgiveness.  When HE is first each day my days go so much smoother, and my pain is bearable!!!  I pray for HIS guidence, grace and mercy in all things...

My dear hubby and I took a little ride last Saturday since I was feeling a bit better after 3 wks of coughing my head off..ehehhe~  We road up to WV to Rio where there's a really old store that has all kinds of old things...if you weed thru things you can sometimes find something of use.  I did find a little pyrex bowl like one I already have but mine has a lid...now I have to bowls the size I like to use for warming up food...yay!!  I also bought to 5 lb bags of potatoes, and only sent $4.00 for it all.  The best of the ride was spending time with Dewey talking about anything that came to mind...even enjoyed just looking and being quiet!!!  Yes, I can be quiet at times..hehehehe!!!
Here are a couple photos I took!!!
Do you see the Cross???

A beauty!!

Awesome Rainbow

Houses on the side of the HWY

Blessings to all who take time to visit my blog!!! (((hugs)))
