Multitude Monday #3733 - #3747...

"...Moments of beauty shock us and, for a few fleeting moments, set our hearts free."
Eyes Wide Open by Steve DeWitt


So today along with the Gratitude Community... I share some of the moments of beauty that "shocked me" from this past week...
 

...being challenged by this scripture...
"If you live wide-eyed in wonder and belief, your body fills up with light. If you live squinty-eyed in greed and distrust, your body is a dank cellar. Keep your eyes open, your lamp burning, so you don’t get musty and murky. Keep your life as well-lighted as your best-lighted room.”  Luke 11:34

...reading and studying Luke 11:34 and then finding a package on the front porch with the book "Eyes Wide Open: Enjoying God in Everything"... 


...Uncle Josh's visit...
Uncle Josh!


...Uncle Josh's excitement over going to Micaiah's drum lesson...

...Friday night fun at Coldstone...

...our shadows...

Our shadows...wish this one would stay little... #shadows, #1000gifts


...Thoughts to Make Your Heart Sing by Sally Lloyd-Jones...I have learned so much from the Jesus Storybook Bible I am so excited to dive into this with the boys...

..."Prayer that uses previously unanswered prayers as an excuse for laziness has already ceased to be a prayer of faith." from Streams in the Desert

...enjoying every last bit of "little" as he grows big...




...hands folded around the dinner table...

...cousins playing together...

...great conversation with my sister in law...

...Micaiah and Wes' dance after the Ravens win...

...resting in the fact that the Lord is in control of all of the details regarding the timing of our house sale...
