Alone with The Father

Matthew 6:6 - When you pray go into your room, and when you have shut your door, pray to your Father who is in the secret place. Do you have a quiet place where you can get alone with God? He loves to hear from you! Just as much as we spend time on Facebook, Pinterest and Twitter - God is wanting a little of our time. Our time with God is so important, it's the best part of our day; everything else falls into place when we start our day with God.

Matthew 14:13 If solitude was an important part of Jesus' life, shouldn't it be an important part of ours. Jesus often went to a quiet "deserted place" by Himself to get away from the crowds (the multitudes).

Mark 1:33 Again we see Jesus get alone with the Father in a solitary, quiet place and "there He prayed." Jesus prayer life was much more than ritual it was part of who He was. Some days we may need an hour other days it may just just 10 minutes but it's important to daily spend time with the Father to be refreshed and invigorated. Consistently seek time to pray - it's so important.

Find a quiet place where you can close the door and communicate with the Father. Choose a time - morning, afternoon or evening; open your Bible and let God speak to you from His Word. Thank Him, praise Him and make your request known. He will answer your prayers - Yes - No - Wait; according to His will. It's in the waiting that's the hardest! Just Do It!!!

Travel Adventures 2023

Travel Adventures 2023 – So many places to go! This year my husband and I traveled to Reno, Lake Tahoe and Yosemite National Park. I took lots of pictures but could only choose a few for this blog. I’ve included a little information about each location we visited, along with a few pictures. Enjoy! Reno is a city in the northwest section of the U.S. state of Nevada, along the Nevada-California border, about 22 miles (35 km) north from Lake Tahoe, known as "The Biggest Little City in the World". Known for its casino and tourism industry. We stayed at the Nugget Casino & Resort...and no, I did not put any money in the slot machines!!! :-) What's a vacation with shopping - the Outlets at Legends proved to be more than shopping. Then off to Virginia City. Lake Tahoe is located on the border of California and Nevada. About two-thirds of the lake is in California, with about one-third extending into Nevada at the north and south ends of the lake, and the entire

Happy Labor Day!

Labor Day is an annual celebration of the social and economic achievements of American workers. It is a federal holiday in the United States celebrated on the first Monday in September to honor and recognize the American labor movement and the works and contributions of laborers to the development and achievements of the United States. The holidays stem from the late 1800s when labor activists wanted a federal holiday to recognize workers' contributions to the country. The first U.S. Labor Day was celebrated on Tuesday, September 5, 1882 in New York City, planned by the Central Labor Union. The Labor Day parade of about 10,000 workers took unpaid leave and marched from City Hall past Union Square uptown to 42nd street and ended in Wendel’s Elm Park at 92nd Street and 9th Avenue for a concert, speeches, and a picnic.
