Happy Monday

Good  morning friends~ I hope you had a peace filled weekend with reminders that today is a new day, filled with endless possibilities. 
I had a great Saturday but I have a question for you; what do 180,000 women from 48 U.S. states, 11 other countries in 73 different locations and 1 correctional facility all have in common?  The answer is women joined together to hear Beth Moore in a live simulcast out of Lubbock Texas with praise & worship led by Travis Cottrell, lifting up the name of our Lord & Savior, Jesus Christ.  It was a wonderful day hosted by a fantastic church, Rocky Mountain Christian Church, who made sure all  our needs were taken care of.  We had an incredible lunch and lots of snacks at a large church where even the men's bathrooms were designated for the gals.  Beth's teaching was so good, focusing on Luke and Paul, but applicable to each woman there. I have found that she has the ability to take the Word and show us all how to walk it out in our own lives and situations.  I wonder if any of my blogging buddies were in attendance too? 
For a mere $20. this day was so worth it, plus I got to spend time with two dear friends-what more could a gal ask for. 
Yesterday we got to visit with both daughters & their families and meet our new cow; they named her Missy and she is a bit reserved but will hopefully settle in quickly.   We also spent time remembering ten years ago and honoring those who were directly involved.  We actually had two F19 jets do a fly over; we get this on a regular basis and because we are now used to hearing them I always go out to see if we can visually see them. 
Have a wonderful day and remember to count your blessings.  Noreen

  1. I love your new background ... I love changing my background to match the season. ;-)

    It sounds like you had a fantastic weekend!

    I didn't realize that there was a live simulcast by Beth Moore this past Saturday. I would have LOVED to have participated (there were a couple of churches less than an hours' drive that were putting it on), but I didn't know about it Saturday morning. Not that I'm complaining about spending my morning with DD and the Ts, but I just love Beth and her teachings. I need to check her website more frequently so I won't miss the next simulcast! ;-)

  6. So pleased for you that your weekend was such a good one! Love your new background too but finding it a bit difficult to read the black text on the dark colour. Maybe a cream or yellow text might work (please - not a criticism - just a hopefully helpful comment) Blessings!

  7. Oh Noreen I thought about you on Sat. as I knew you were going to be attending, and wished I was there with you. What a treat! Soo glad you got to go. She's such a gifted teacher. Sounds like the rest of your week-end was good too. Now you are raising that calf to eat eventually right? Hope you have a good night! HUGS
