An Afternoon of Fun

Friday afternoon was so much fun.
It was the annual Fun Fair at my children's school.  All four kids and I helped to set up for it and then spent a few hours enjoying all the activities.  My hubby even went after work and helped us win two amazing gardening baskets which I can't wait to put to use!
One of the highlights for us was the cake walk.  Having never heard of a cake walk before, I was intrigued to learn that it was like musical chairs only the prize was the cake of your choice if your number was chosen.  We won not one but two delicious cakes!

Family fun and community spirit.


Things I want my children to always value and support.

The Path

I love how music speaks to the heart.  As I mentioned a few posts ago, I've been listening to a beautiful CD by musician Cherri Keaggy a lot lately.  I shouldn't be, but I'm always amazed by how God knows exactly what I need to hear at exactly the time I need to hear it!
This song has been ministering to me over the last few weeks and I wanted to share it with you this morning.

Stay to the Middle of the Path

Stay to the middle of the path.
Look not to the right or to the left.
Fear will show its face to steal your rest.
You can find deliverance up ahead
If you stay to the middle of the path.

Fear creeps in to keep you frozen
Faith says pray and move ahead
Fear says you'll always be broken
Faith knows that broken things can mend

For my God is is so much more than able to give you quiet strength
Courage  might say push and then say pull
Or it might just say wait
But I know its hard to wait

You might say the road is winding
Certain of dangers up ahead
All these fears can be so binding
Faith gives way to trust instead

If my God is with me
Who can be against me?
Who can even stand?
No amount of trying can convince me that I'm not in His hands

Through the dry and desert lands
