I love spring.

The flowers, the trees budding, the sunshine, the rain showers....the smell.

My favorite spring smell has to be wisteria.

In the late afternoon you can go outside and sit and be enveloped by the sweet smell of the gorgeous purple hanging flowers.

Even as a little girl I loved it.  I remember my Memaw finding me a wisteria bush or something like it because I loved it so much.

So I chose this verse from 2 Corinthians today.  To remind you of the beautiful fragrance of Christ you have.  Isn't the Message version of this verse so beautiful.  A perpetual victor parade.....with us spreading the fragrance of Christ....the fragrance redolent with life.  Gorgeous.

This is my last time hosting WFW and I wanted to leave you a reminder of how wonderful all of you are.  Many different things factored into my decision but I know it is the right one...but it is bittersweet as I have come to so enjoy seeing each of your names once a month and visiting your beautiful WFW posts.  

Your aroma is so wonderful and what you do every week with WFW is spreading the fragrance of Christ far and wide across the interwebs.   You are a blessing to others and to me!  Thank You for letting me a small part of your lives each month.

Blessings,

I have been thinking of this verse a lot.  For the first time I have been doing Lenten devotionals each day.  It has been a challenge.  A wonderful one.  I have reflected more on Christ this season and my heart is so thankful for what He has done.  With that thankfulness I have been thinking a great deal about Communion.  Our way of honoring and remembering His Sacrifice.   His Love.

His Body.

His Blood.

For Me.

For You.

May we Remember.

Have a Blessed WFW,

 Oh how I love when God ties things together for me.  This year my word is Hope.  I have also been thinking a lot about pouring out lately.  Pouring out into others as He pours into me.  I see now that just as He tied the two together in Romans He is tying them together in my life in big ways.

His Word.  Encouragement for us.  Every. Day.

I hope as you are poured into by our Father you pour out into others.  It's a blessing!

Happy WFW!

After I wrote this post I found the photo above and knew it was a perfect illustration.  So this week I knew I had to pair the photo and verse.  It's a timely reminder for me.   Sometimes I get very impatient but I have learned the good things; the really, really good things I hope for....are worth the patience.  Because not only when I wait my hopes are being fulfilled....they are being fulfilled in His perfect timing...and there is nothing better than His timing!

Happy WFW!

 Louie Giglio calls this the 12 Words of Christmas.  I don't think there are 12 sweeter words in the book of Luke.  It was the beginning of a most wondrous Love.  His Love for Us.   I have thought a great deal this Christmas season about our Triune God and the fact that the life of Christ centered on three defining moments.  His Birth, His Death, and His Resurrection.  One is not possible without the other.  

Oh how joyously I celebrate the miracle that is the Birth of Christ.  There were tough spots for Mary and Joseph but I cannot help but think that the moment they saw that baby boy they named Jesus...all was right in their world.

Merry Christmas!

I am learning, albeit slowly, that in my waiting with hope, there is a wonderful peace.  A sweetness that only He can give.

Have a blessed week Peaches.

I made this over a month ago.  A friend sent me a card of encouragement with this verse.  It was perfect timing.  After I read the verse I knew I wanted to make it something special and knew just the photo to use.    I also quickly memorized this verse and when things are hard or I feel so exhausted and cannot go on...I repeat this to myself as a reminder....He is my Sustainer.  He is my Rescuer.  He is already carrying me.

Word Filled Wednesday :: October 14

 

I love this photo of my nephew Carter-man.  He brings such delight and joy into our lives.  When I read this verse I thought of his adorable face.  He is a dearly loved child.  So am I.  So are YOU.  Even more than that we are so dearly loved that Jesus gave up His life.  

Oh the rejoicing my heart does to know how LOVED I am.  

How LOVED You are.

So Loved,

 
 

 

Word Filled Wednesday :: September 23

Some days I long for Heaven.  I long for our Lord's return.  I could not help but be delight when on my search for a verse about autumn that I remembered this one...it encompasses everything I am feeling this week.  A beautiful reminder that He is coming...soon.
