You are here. Be present. Live.

Sometimes you won't know the true value of a moment until it is a memory.

I can't tell you how many times I have taken a moment for granted. How I rushed through it, or how I had an attitude during it, or I just didn't even think about it. It is always afterwards that I realize how much of a treasure those little, and sometimes seemingly unimportant things are.  A minute seems like a second, an hour seems like a minute, a day seems like an hour, a week feels like a day, a month feels like a week, and then you realize it has been a year. Time goes too quickly when you want it to slow down, and too slowly when you want it to go quicker. Moments are so fragile and so special. I don't want to hustle or bustle through it, I just want to live moment-by-moment. I want to live every second finding joy in the Lord and this life He has so blessed us with. 

Here are my sweet, little moments of fall that I oh-so-want to keep locked in my heart forever: 

You are here. 

Be present. 

Live.

We went to the pumpkin patch one fall afternoon, wearing mittens and a scarf. We stuffed our faces with kettle corn, while we walked in rows of pumpkins looking for the perfect one. We laughed, and smiled, and were reminded of our childhood that one fall afternoon. 

My  afternoons usually consist of being curled up in my bright, pink blanket reading, and writing, and learning, and growing in knowledge. I am really growing in the knowledge of the Lord. The Lord is living truth. He is not only there, but he is visible. God shows Himself through His creation.  

I believe in Christianity as I believe that the sun has risen;
not only because I see it, but by it 
I see everything else. 
C.S. Lewis

Good Night, Friends!
