Great grace…

025

Thanksgiving…

the birth of baby granddaughter…

the visit of youngest daughter…

the visit of second born daughter…

Christmas parties and preparations…

a wedding…

the happy mountaintops

another delay in the church building project…

a bank account hacked into…

a crunched car bumper…

tension…

stress…

the valley times

and in between, the sweet everyday ordinary moments

and all of it

Grace…

Great Grace.

*******************

I continue to count my thanks

piling up gratitude day by day

in my little green journal…

  3. It's nice to meet you! Visiting from A Holy Experience. I adore the photos of the newborn grandbaby, especially the photo of the tiny hand in the woman's hand. I've loved each of my baby's hands and love to see them grow larger and look larger in my own. Thank you for sharing the precious images.
