Monday Morning Meditation.

I am meditating on the words to this song today...

So much goodness, so much truth.

Come out of sadness from wherever you’ve been
Come broken hearted let rescue begin
Come find your mercy, Oh sinner come kneel

Earth has no sorrow that Heaven can’t heal
Earth has no sorrow that Heaven can’t heal

So lay down your burdens, lay down your shame
All who are broken, lift up your face
Oh wanderer come home, You’re not too far
So lay down your hurt, lay down your heart
Come as you are

There’s hope for the hopeless
And all those who’ve strayed
Come sit at the table
Come taste the grace
There’s rest for the weary
Rest that endures
Earth has no sorrow
That Heaven can’t cure

Come as you are
Fall in His arms, come as you are

There’s joy for the morning, Oh sinner be still
Earth has no sorrow that Heaven can’t heal
Earth has no sorrow that Heaven can’t heal

Share the love,

Sing Me Love.

In the morning sing me love, and in the afternoon it's love, and if we sing together Love will sing along- two voices carry farther than one.

I love, love, love this song- hence this hand lettered printable :)

If You Experience The Whole Gamut; You Might be Married.

Last night we finally went out to celebrate our 13th wedding anniversary... this is a little about how it went; normal conversation, debate about an idea (which we may or may not ever have to deal with) passionate conversation, slightly heated conversation, ( um teeny tiny) tears- because when I get all passionate and serious little tears well up in my eyes, laughter, long pause- Duy got an alert that Robin Williams had passed away-, silence, long pause, tears, laughter, shopping, then home for a viewing of Good Morning Vietnam in honour of our beloved Robin.

If you are married, you might recognize this as "normal". I don't even know what normal is, but what I do know is,  if you are still passionate about ideas in your marriage- still wanting to have discussions about what may or may not happen, still love talking about a future together- this one is or you...

Me and you, and you and me
No matter how they tossed the dice, it had to be
The only one for me is you, and you for me
So happy together 

Share the love, and say a prayer for Robin Williams' family,
remember to live life to the fullest, have those passionate discussions about the future... the future you hope to have together.

Love to you all,
M.

Your Cares.

Who do you go to when you are overwhelmed? When your heart is heavy? When you have too much to do? When you look around, the weeds have over taken your front walk, the dog is shedding big time,  and the house is a mess and you know you are leaving for a week in a few days ... oy.

I have a secret. It might just blow your mind.

I talk to God. Like a lot. (I don’t mean a lot sometimes, I mean a lot all of the time. Day in, day out. I have this ongoing conversation with the creator of the universe.)

I don’t pray, in the way that you might expect. I just talk. and talk, and talk. 

I tell him everything. Even though, I believe he already knows everything, I tell him anyway.

Are you feeling overwhelmed? try it, have a conversation with the creator of the universe... let him hear your heart straight from your mouth...

This verse is one of my favourites- "Cast your cares on him (tell him everything, let him know, share your heavy heart because...) he cares (loves, wants to hear it, already knows, but loves it when you take a minute to tell him) about YOU! (yup, you!)

Share the love,

M.

Let Your Freak Flag Fly

Probably one of my favourite quotes from a movie, ever.  I first heard it in the movie,  The Family Stone. Love that movie, love this quote.

Then I did a google search to find the quote, and I heard 'Let your Freak Flag Fly' from Shrek the Musical- How did I not know this existed? How could I not share this? Take a peek at the video then scroll down for a great printable!

I've included a black and white version for the office... Let's Celebrate what makes us unique!  Com'on let your Freak Flag Fly!

Handlettered by yours truly! Have an amazing Wednesday!
