I saw this on Elizabeth Foss's blog this morning and loved it. Wow. At the top of my prayer list for Obama is that the Lord would show him the value of life. God creates life. God values life. God defines when life begins. The days of our lives were counted before we were ever a thought in our parents minds. Imagine the potential.

Inauguration Day 2009!
History is being made today! I plan to have the tv on, discuss the day's events with my kids while praying for Barack Obama and his family throughout today and the coming years.

Compassion, Meekness, Quietness, Kindness
The words I listed in the title of my post have all had an impact on me in the past week. I am learning that as I choose to focus on this thing called "compassion" the Lord is showing me that so many of the words and qualities are all intertwined.

This week I have begun a book study ... Read More about Compassion, Meekness, Quietness, Kindness

It is called The Tiny Snowflake by Art Ginolfi.This book is about a tiny snowflake falling from the sky, who sees lots of beautiful snowflakes around her and wonders what makes her special.
