This morning as I sat through the worship portion of our church service, the word "help" kept coming up. The first song I didn't think a lot about it, but the second one has stuck with me. It's a song by Kristian Stanfill. Here are some of the lyrics "Always" My foes are many, they rise against me But I will hold my ground I will not fear the war, I will not fear the storm My help is on the way, my help is on the way Oh, my God, He will not delay My refuge and strength always I ...

Pinterest Challenge Day 5: Half Door
OK, so remember what I said about all the "pretty" pictures you pin? If you don't remember, it was something like: "replicate what you liked from the picture." I decided that's what I would use for my last challenge. I had pinned a few pictures of some half doors a few weeks ago. I love the way they look and it reminds me of a barn door we had at our house growing up. Here is just one of the beautiful doors: via My husband and I had talked about moving our dog's ...

Pinterest Challenge Day 2: Clean Towels
Today's challenge dealt with smelly towels. I accidentally forgot about a load of towels in the wash a little too long, one day. I had tried re-washing them a few times, but they still had that FUNK smell. (You know the one, right?) I thought I might just have to throw them away, but "OH NO" Pinterst to the rescue! Alright, it I might have over dramatized it, just a tad. ;) But truthfully, this pin is a good one!!! I found it here, but apparently it is common wikiHow ...
