Sweet Sisters!

I love spending summer's with my sweet Sisters in Christ!

For the past 2 summers we have done Beth Moore's Esther and Fruit of the Spirit studies.

 We decided to take a break from Beth and read Crazy Love by Francis Chan.

I am going to be honest, when the book title first came up, my (honest) first thought was, "what more can I learn about love." It's not that I think I have it all figured out, but I just thought we would probably hear the same old stuff...love God...love others.. isn't that awful of me!!

Boy was I wrong! This book has been AMAZING and such a CHALLENGE to what I think love is!

A topic that keeps coming up in our discussions is how to steal away for quiet time when you have little one's. 

Having quiet moments to myself is H-A-R-D

With a 7 month old and 3 1/2 year old I am good to pee by myself (ha!) much less have 10-15 minutes of peace and quiet to myself.

I have finally just come to realize that this is a season of my life where my quiet time with God might look a little different, and that's okay! It's a season!

Getting my heart filled with his word might come from singing "This little light of mine or I've got the joy-joy-joy-joy down in my heart".

My daily bread might be lying on the floor with Kaitlyn, reading a children's book or working on our Letter of the Week scripture verse.

My prayer and praise time might be a pushing the double stroller on a walk in the neighborhood,  listening to praise and worship music.

In this season I fill our wipe boards, mirrors, and fridge with little scriptures or post it notes of praises!

 I leave my bible out on our coffee table open to a scripture that I can read and meditate over all day.

 I am learning to LOVE this season; where moments with Him are sprinkled into the everyday rhythms of life.
And most of all....
little hearts are learning that He is apart of our day!
