WAITING IN SOUTHERN MISSOURI

Driving along the roads and hills of southern Missouri you will cross many rivers and creeks; the beauty of wildlife comes alive before your eyes. I took these photos of our first significant snowfall. I hope that you enjoy looking at the scenery that I get to watch develop from cold and ice to beautiful lush greenery with a wealth of blossoms.  The Southern Missouri Landscape January 2020 Laveda D.

LEVEL THINKING: UP OR DOWN

Image
We all go through things that seem impossible. Our thoughts can help or deter our journey. Thinking about things too much can overpower our faith, yet, not thinking about them can be detrimental for the journey that we are on. What does that say about our level of thinking? Thinking negative thoughts will make us negative while thinking positive thoughts can open an atmosphere of faith that is pleasing and welcoming to the Holy Spirit. Believe that even though we are imperfect, God is perfect and His perfection was manifested in Jesus Christ who desires the best for us! Therefore, hold tight to the Word of God no matter what situations surround you. And remember, the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law. – Galatians 5:22-23 The fruit of the Spirit - Galatians 5:22-23 LEVEL THINKING: UP OR DOWN Laveda D. Rockford January 2020 If there is no law against these a

No matter how many times they went over the plan, something always has a way of sneaking up on them. And that’s what happened during this choreographed assignment.

INTRODUCING: BRIGHT MORNING STAR

I’ll start this post with poetry. A poem always gives more to writing or sharing something profound. It begins the message with poetic rhythm while focusing on the subject. Bounding from word to word while the expanse lights the way.   I don’t know, call me a poetic junkie. I love it and I hope you do, too. *** AN EVERLASTING CARE by Laveda D. Rockford May Your Light shine, May Your purpose manifest through and through. May my thoughts always reflect You. May many come to Christ. The sound of Your glory no mind can fathom. The sound of Your grace does impair, The plans of evil, evil will not stand. Because Your grace and glory appear. Your truth brightens the path, Giving light to the world. Your thoughts for us surpassing, The death and living swirled. Abundance promised an everlasting care, Standing on the Word You share. No to death, that sinful lair. Because You lived, and died, and LIVE. Because You live! May Your Light manifes
