Baseball, Packing and Peace...

We enjoyed the weekend in Aggie Land 
with my husband's father and our kiddos. 
 It was a perfect day for baseball. 
This is quite a view too if you love football.

I am up to my ears in boxes and feeling pretty overwhelmed with it.
I am sure it will all get finished...some how...some way.

 I walk by this sweet view at times and marvel at how
God's creation is incredibly gorgeous,
and He made it beautiful just because He loves me. 
Jesus Calling was great for today, here is a little of what it said:
If you learn to trust Me- really trust Me-
with your whole being, then nothing can separate you from My peace.
Do not fear what this day, or any day, may bring your way. Concentrate on trusting Me and on doing what needs to be done. Relax in My sovereignty, remembering that I go before you, as well as with you, into each day. Fear no evil, for I can bring good out of every situation you will ever encounter.

Proverbs 31:30
Charm is deceptive, and beauty does not last;
but a woman who fears the Lord will be greatly praised.
Now, back to packing and marking off this long list of things to do.
Blessings on your day! Amy

Yes, beautiful flowers! As I was walking this a.m., I was remembering a song: God's love is like a flower and it blooms forever in us!

Prayers today for your packing and to-do list!
