Featured

I'm really excited I woke up this morning and found I'd been chosen, I'm featured at my favorite scrapbook hangout. http://www.scrapbook-bytes.com and they have awarded me a special blinkie.

I like scraping making special memory pages for my three sons. It's a way I can show them our lives through my eyes. I hope they get 'it' that I did my best as a mom. A mom who follows Jesus and tries hard to make Him the focus of our family. I think I did okay. One is studying to be a pastor the other two are believers as well. Someday I may get courage to scrap the not so good days.

How much is too much?

Last night we had a speaker at our church. Debbie is walking across the US to raise money to build a library in Kenya. After listening to her describe her journey and watching the dvd of the states she has been through I started thinking. I know that can be dangerous for me!

Debbie walks with a pair of pj's, one set of clothes, food for the day, fuel, a small burner, a lighter, her bible a tent and the clothes she is wearing. That's pretty much it. I find that is amazing to know anyone could live with only that. On vacation I take tons of clothes and shoes and books! So how much is too much? Can I live with less than I have? I think so and that is my challenge in the next few months. I'm going to donate the things that are useful but I really can do without. Want to join the challenge?
