So many Thomas Kincade paintings inspire peace. I love those!!! They give me the feeling of actually being in that beautiful, tranquil garden or cottage or (in this case) bridge. They remind me that life won't always be this hectic. Someday, I'll find some peace and rest (hopefully before Heaven, but if not -- definitely in Heaven).
There's always something demanding my attention right now, either from the kids or the house, or my own interests. I guess that's "normal" life for a mom with kids at home. It's best, I know, to enjoy all the good times and making good memories with these four precious little people.

I'm kinda copying an online friend for today's song. She put this song on her blog; I heard it, loved it, went right to amazon.com to buy it: "All I Want" by Michael W. Smith
All the journeys I have walked
I know You've walked them, too
All I want is to be faithful
All I want is You.
To be a friend of God is all that I desire
All I want is to be faithful
All I want is You.
All the journeys I have walked
I know You've walked them, too
All I want is to be faithful
All I want is You.
To be a friend of God is all that I desire
All I want is to be faithful
All I want is You.

Something that I love about this song is that it grounds me. When I start feeling like I might be getting too busy, or too distracted, or just too ANYTHING... its like, where do my real priorities lie? OH YAH-- THERE. Right there. What do I really want? I want God. I want to serve Him. I want HIM--and only Him. Everything else can pass away, but if I don't have Him, I'm empty.
