Hi there!  So excited to be starting this blog, “Deep Breaths”.  I have wanted to write a book with this blog title for awhile, and today I decided to just “publish” it myself here.  In this blog you will find various categories that are a part of my life: Marriage, Motherhood, Ministry, Photography, Poetry, Songwriting, Running, Cooking, and Exhortation.  I have much to learn in life, love, and faith- but my goal with this blog is to record what God is teaching me and help inspire and exhort you in your journey with the LORD.  So, curl up with some tea, chocolate, your Bible and journal and take a deep breath!

In light of thanksgiving, take a minute to write down 3 ways in which God has showed you His grace and love today:

2 Corinthians 12:9 “…My grace is sufficient for you for My power is made perfect in weakness…”

I am so glad that Christ is sufficient for me, that His grace covers my weakness.  How often I take this grace for granted.  Today I am going to pause and acknowledge this grace and thank Him for it.  Thank You God:

1.  For saving me from my sin
2.  For blessing me with a wonderful husband and children
3.  For Your patience with my strong-will and control issues.
