Beauty Around the Corner...

What do you think of my flea market find? I found it a few weeks ago for 10.00. For right now it graces the spot next to my back door. I LOVE it!

I read this quote the other day. It was one of those quotes that really left me thinking. I thought I would share it with you today.

"If Jesus gives us a task or assigns us to a difficult season, every ounce of our experience is meant for our instruction and completion if only we will let Him finish the work. I fear, however, that we are so attention-deficit that we settle for bearable when beauty is just around the corner." - Beth Moore

WOW!!!
Or maybe "OUCH!!!" is a better word.

Prayers and blessings on this Beautiful Wednesday!

Just now catching up on all your posts. Been totally out of the web-loop for over a week. Geez...and look how much I miss.

I'm not entering your give-away because you always disqualify yourself from mine, so I guess I'll honorably disqualify myself from yours...even though I really want to enter because I love your presents!! But I'll be big.

That cake thing looks amazing. And darn it all to Johnny that I can't eat it. Ugh. Dern diet.

Tater had a Happy Birthday! :)

Love you muchly.
