Thanks you for your continued cooperation and support. We are getting into the routine of things….

This week I heard something that I have been thinking about….It is the belief that we should choose to rely on God’s power and reflect the fruit of His Spirit in our lives and homes. It benefits us to dwell in God’s love moment by moment. This will result in our displaying the fruits of the Sprit. At first glance, this seems like it would be simple but after reflecting on it for a bit, I am struck at the depth this requires. To dwell in God’s love moment by moment I need to seek Him continually which is hard, given the distractions of our busy days. My conclusion is that I shouldn’t be daunted by this but challenged. I encourage you this week to live moment by moment feeling God’s love and mercy.

Have a great week!! Feel free to call or email with any questions or concerns.                          Mrs. Lively
