Growing where planted...

As an Army wife, things don't always work out the way we want them to. You have to learn to take the good with the bad. You just make the best of whatever they throw your way.. (more on our current situation when I get it all figured out myself.. ) 


"....I have learned in whatever state I am, to be content." Philippians 4:11"

It doesn't matter where you go~what you do, or how much you have~it's who you have beside you.

Not sure where I got that last one or who wrote it, but I like it. In a sermon/bible study I heard a few weeks ago, I thought of this saying quite a bit. I had to really re-think it. I like this because as an Army wife I like it because I can do anything move anywhere as long as I have my soldier by my side or at least supporting me from where ever he is. In this sermon, I was reminded that it matters more to who we have leading us. Yes, it is great to have those supporting you, but who are you following? So I can still feel blessed to have my favorite soldier by my side, but I want us to make sure we are letting the Lord lead us. These days, I need reminded of that more and more! :)


The Lord is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer: "my God",  my strength, in whom I will trust; my buckler, and the horn of my salvation, and high tower. Psalm 18:2

"You are never in the wrong place to serve the Lord. Even if no one acknowledges your efforts. God sees and knows. Bloom where you are planted."


I have a lot to catch up on here. I hope you are all doing well.
Be Blessed!
