Camping

So our family had our very first over night Camping trip, One day only. So today I thought I would upload random pictures that I took. Beware they are pretty random.

 

We camped at Three Rivers State Park. It is beautiful!

I got to choose our campsite. The only thing that was wrong with it is when the Gator's start growling! yikes 

This is how you make coffee after a long night of no sleep.

Coffee is ready when you are.

I wish this could be the view with my coffee every morning.

 

The boys know how to get dirty

I hope you have enjoyed the random pictures of our camping adventure. I might try and add more pictures to my blog now that I know how easy it is to do. 

Peace Be With You

A Psalm of David.

Sometimes I wonder where I am, what is the right path and have I taken it. Then I look at my boys and wonder what path I am leading them on and worry about when we part if I have done all I could for them. So i look out at my path and pray to God. I pray for strength and guidance.Almost two years ago our life came to a brief stop and when the world started to spin I realized I needed to give my children God. With out knowing it my journey began. Although I am not there yet and I am sure it is going to take time to get there, I know I am more open to see the Lord. After Reading a book called Traveling Light by Max Lucado I found out The Lord is With ME. I didn't find out reading the book, it just lead me there. I was on a bike with my two kids in a trailer behind me. Sweat dripping off of me , the sun hot, and I am peddling home on the nine mile mark a cool breeze cooled my skin, the birds song lightened my heart, and there I found God all at once. For the first time I knew beyond a shadow of a doubt that he was with me. My life changed.

Don't get me wrong I have always believed there was a higher power but this was the fist time I knew. So I would like to post Psalms 23. Take a minute to read it and really feel the message.

The Lord Is My Shepherd

A Psalm of David.

23:1 The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.
2 He makes me lie down in green pastures.
He leads me beside still waters.
3 He restores my soul.
He leads me in paths of righteousness
for his name's sake.

4 Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil,
for you are with me;
your rod and your staff,
they comfort me.

5 You prepare a table before me
in the presence of my enemies;
you anoint my head with oil;
my cup overflows.
6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me
all the days of my life,
and I shall dwell  in the house of the Lord
forever.

I hope that you will come with me on my journey. You are welcome to add your thoughts anytime. My blog will still be random but it is me after all.

Peace be with you
