Just a little light in the darkness....

"Let your light shine before men in such a way that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in heaven!"

Matthew 5:16

Aren't these thought provoking? I have always loved to watch the light spread throughout the room at a candlelight service.

Life here at Heart and Home has been full. While, The Blessings and I have had a bout or two with the flu, I am also in the midst of lots of creative projects.  Whenever we take the Blessings to the library, I scour the decorator/home furnishing/furniture refinishing section to see what's in that I have previously missed. The creative juices flow freely on a daily basis now for many current as well as future projects. Beloved tolerates it all fairly well and I endeavor to keep the messes to minimum when he gets home from work. Of course the curious thing about all the above is that we are also in the midst of a major family budgeting/future planning overhaul.... which means the decorator bug must be kept in check with the budget at all times. So there are no wild splurges going on at this point.... but there is a lot of creativity. Pinterest has become a new found love as well. So many wonderful ideas feed the mind, heart, and soul. Ahh, if only I had boundless hours in a day to devote to it all! But... stay tuned... for I will soon give a peak or two at some of the wonderful things going on here at HaH!

Precious Blessings!

Real or Fabricated?

Beloved thinks this is fabricated and edited, but I thought it looked pretty real. What's your guess?

A little of Estes' beauty

This was from our recent trip to the Estes. Even though we have somewhat similar views here, it never ceases to take my breath away! We couldn't have picked a better time to visit.... the weather was wonderful and the leaves were at their prime.

Enjoy!

A Sight To Be Seen

Almost to beautiful to be real... and yet it is!

I think I would like to sign up for classes under this artist!

Enjoy!

A Creativity Vein.........

I am not sure..... who came up with this. But, I think it is pretty neat! As, I was driving home this after noon, I began to think about the role of each hand.... the role of each person to make this happen! Wow!

Perhaps this post should be titled something like...... a part of the whole. That is what God calls us to be and do, isn't it? To just do our part so that others may do theirs! And together He weaves it all together to make something beautiful. We don't always see the tangible evidence of the beauty.... but it is there. Perhaps this is a good reminder...... that our parts are crucial and that things would/ will be incomplete..... if we neglect our role for the kingdom!

No Technology Required:

Isn't it precious to know that even when the electricity goes out..... this form of communication is always available!

Precious blessings for this weekend!

Breathtaking......

Fall is my favorite season!

The colors seem to be more vibrant this year. I didn't take this photo, but I love it! Doesn't it just draw you in?

We went to the mountains, recently the bold hues of color just mesmerized us all!

I wonder if heaven will have seasons?

Precious blessings!
