Month: February 2022

Our dwelling place isn’t in a house or in any specific town, but our dwelling place is in the Lord. Regardless of where we go or what we do, we live our lives in Him, eternally. In Him is joy and beauty and perfect peace; purpose and love and everything we need. I will always live a life of gratitude for what He has given me. 

“Lord, thou hast been our dwelling place in all generations. Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever thou hadst formed the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting, thou art God.”

Don’t forget to take time to make memories. Sure I had other things I needed to do, but I’ll only have so many moments where my 14-year-old will deal out a deck of cards in hopes I’ll take time to play with him. 

I have the best memories of playing rummy with my Gramie. She taught me to play when I was little and we both taught Matthew to play when he was little. I am so thankful that Matthew got an opportunity to know our Gramie and to play rummy with her. It’s a great memory that we both have with our Gramie and we can carry on the tradition that was passed down to us. We miss her so much and our lives have changed drastically since she passed (selling our house, living in a camper full time), but I cherish the moments that we get to remember all of the joy we had with her.
