Share and Tell

welcome to Share and Tell Friday...I started this a couple of weeks ago and I am loving sharing with my readers the places I visit and the people I meet. The concept is to share a site or post that truly inspired or encouraged you this week.
I have had a long, long. Busy, busy week as you might haven't noticed no posts from me. And in my business I haven't gotten to read a lot and this morning I wasn't sure who I would share. I had read a couple of posts earlier in the week but in my rushed and hurried schedule I didn't take note of them. Hopefully I will slow down this weekend and find them and share with you.
But today I am sending you back over to Sarah Mae. She has a lovely blog and writes about home and family and what she is learning on her Journey with God. She even ended today's post speaking of her Journey.

Here is part of what she say's today...

"The sons of Ephraim were archers equipped with bows, yet they turned back in the day of battle." Psalm 78:9
"Are you facing a battle?
I battle daily with keeping my time with the Lord sacred, my affection for my husband alive, my teaching to my children consistent, my home in order, myself showered, and my own sin nature in check (by God's grace).

It is so easy to give up, to try and escape. We escape in many ways-the Internet, books, TV, friends, etc. We don't know how to push through our emotions, our tiredness, or our failures. We get stuck. We feel lost...abandoned. Our marriages lack real intimacy. We are scared to death that if we try again, we'll just fail again, so why bother. We give in. " Sarah Mae

These words really touched me this morning. Sometimes I am stuck, lost and I feel abandoned I need reminding that I need to lean on my heavenly father. Today I am rushed and I have a million things that need to be done before 2:00 and so I lean on God's grace and his sufficiency to get me through the day.

I hope your day is Blessed I hope that you lean on God.

Please visit my friend Kelli for Show and Tell it is a fun stop.

Blessings Sherry...As you lean on Him today & each day, may He hold you & see you through, for His grace & His sufficiency is enough.

Ya' know I did not realize that you had changed this from the house keeping, Show N Tell to Share N Tell. I like your idea, I hope it works for you! I appreciate your visit and the update you gave me about the squares. Looking forward to when you can show a photo of their labor of love! Thanks for squeezing time in to post & even visit! God bless & have a restful
weekend or evening after you accomplish "great & mighty" millions of things for Him! Your service is such a blessing...may He be honored & your girls & you blessed!(Cowboy too)!
