Extra sweetness needed

Every once in a while, we need a little extra sweetness. I have a little container of mini m&m 's that I carry around in my purse for little rewards. Especially when a communal job needs to be done and everyone cries "It's not mine! I didn't do it!"
 
 
We ask the Lord daily for patience with one another, and delight in the sweet moments He gives.
 
Kids hanging out in the play place while we waited in long lines to show our support of Chick-fil-A and their support of godly principles
 
The girls have enjoyed cooking and baking goodies. They made scones to welcome Grandmama home with a tea party and cookies to share with our local firemen.
 
Will is learning to set the table and
likes to help out too.
 
Thank you God for quiet peaceful moments of unity.

Beth Moore writes in her James Mercy Triumphs Biblestudy (p.86)

"You don't live this kind of life accidentally. You make up your mind who you want to be and daily die to the rest. You surrender yourself to live in the tension where you'll always be stretched and often be broken. You accept that far easier ways to live exist, but you were born for nothing less."
