I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ in me. The life I live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me. I do not set aside the grace of God, for if righteousness could be gained through the law, Christ died for nothing!
Galations 2:20-21

~ Our New President Elect ~

Last night as I heard the results from our election I was in disbelief- how could we have already decided this when half the country-or more- have not even closed their polling booths, let alone counted all the votes that had been mailed in. Discouragement started to set in.

I woke this morning in a stupor. I did not want to hear any more about the election. I was sad.

Then I heard God's Word and I am again encouraged. It really does not matter who is in the White House- or any other house- when it comes down to it. My God is bigger. My sights and those of this country need to be centered on Him. This does not feel like the best decision. I have to believe God continues to work, and work for our best---not just our ease.

So, I close today hoping to encourage the ones that are discouraged. Be Glad---REJOICE!! The Lord is holding us in his hands and will not turn from His people. How mush more does he love us that we love our children? I am expecting great things!!

I am a wife to a man who can do everything (Lovingly referred to as MacGyver), mom of 10 (1 married in, 1 almost married in and one adopted in) and a Nana to 4. I am all about growing in Christ, family, handcrafts and the art of homemaking. My newest passion is knitting. We live on a small homestead in NE Washington. Raising pigs, chickens and goats, growing a garden and revamping an older home.
