I just got back with the family from a mini vacation in the NC mountains. They are so beautiful and the weather was fabulous! Cool, around 55 degrees in the evenings and in the low 80s during the day. Just fabulous! We couldn’t have requested better weather.
This is the first vacation we have taken in a number of years. For different reasons; you know life get busy, I recently changed jobs. Terry’s health scare. Just things. But we got the chance to go and I’m so very glad we did.
My son and daughter went with us and Lord, we laughed, played games, ate ice cream, shopped, laughed some more. Went down a couple of dirt roads. And wherever we went it took an hour to get there, but we really had fun and it’s was so relaxing. We didn’t worry about bills, doctor reports and tests or our workplaces, we spent our focus on each other and reconnecting. There were some evenings we just set on the back porch in silence and read. Both my children got that love from me. We love to read a good sturdy book.
I have some pictures that reminded me of God’s faithfulness. A week before the area where went to spend our time was hit by a bad thunderstorm. Rocks falling, lighting, trees and debris everywhere, they said. You see, we didn’t see any of that. Everything was clean when we got there. You see the place didn’t look like a storm hit it. It was peaceful. Sometime life is like that. We go through so many different storms, a lot people don’t know about. But afterward, just as sure as God makes the winds cease and the sun rise and set, He will give us a way to clean up and work through our storms.
God is faithful my friend. He is working when you don’t see Him. You and I have no idea what is going on in the Heavenlies. But we can trust Him to look after us, that’s a fact.
I hope you have a great week and this was some encouragement to you. These pictures sure were to me.
Thanks for stopping by!
“He made the storm be still,
And the waves of the sea were hushed.”-Psalms 107:29 ESV
