Teach us to number our days...

Still around, but the days are full and seem to be running way too fast this month (and last apparently, since that was my last post).  Many opportunities of fellowship time with sweet friends, regular weekly events and the start of a new one (Logan has begun flag football...a very happy boy!).  Birthday celebrations ~ three coming in the next three weeks (all in our family), a bridal shower, and Orchestra concerts are more to fill our family's calendar in the weeks ahead.  :-)

Life is full, but good ~ busy doing good things and in due season right now.  Nightly times of family worship & prayer (although we have missed some nights, it is a blessing just to be able to come together as a family as often as we do)...meals together & with friends...the sense of a change in season, inspiring some upcoming room-by-room purging, re-organization and SIMPLIFICATION. 

A verse that has been an encouragement to me and a reminder to seek Him for setting priorities...

"So teach us to number our days so that we may get a heart of wisdom."  Psalm 90:12, ESV

That our (my) days will be focused, eliminating unnecessary stressors, time consumers and simplifying more, with the desire to have more free time to invest in the things that are important...Although, I have been gone from the blogging world for a little while, the time has been invested in living, connecting, ministering, encouraging and Lord willing, equipping. 

The recent loss of a friend has been a further encouragement to "number our days" rightly...his faith, a blessed reminder of how great our God is.  His last days were a testimony living a life fixed on Jesus.  He is sorely missed...

Because of Him ~
