2025 JUNE

JUNE 2025 

June is a month that brings growth, harmony, and joy. Usually known for the official start to summer in the northern hemisphere, the weather brings fun and new beginnings for summer vacations, crops, grads, and brides.  This year the summer solstice is June 20 at around sunset so celebrate the 🌞. 

. June is never mentioned in the Bible but many new beginnings happened during what we now call June. It is known Moses giving the Ten Commandments, the angel Gabrielle visiting Mary and telling her about the birth of Jesus, and for the sacred heart of Jesus. Whether it be through gratitude on the mountain top or reading more scripture I think this month we will try to get closer to our Lord and savior. 

Here’s to Dads and grads and here’s to June. !!👏🏼

2025 MAY word

“In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.”  John1:1

I have been trying to watch my word or words lately, sometimes doing well and sometimes not so well, the key for me is breathe for a moment before speaking. 

Rustic s eyes are flax blue and brown quite different but beautiful. Sash is wishing all of you a happy Memorial Day. 

Here’s to the flowers. It’s been a blustery winter and spring so welcome to the new season. If you want to feel peaceful read psalms definitely psalm 23. 

My favorite verse is “your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path. Enjoy the trail. 

With love and light 

2025 APRIL HOME

2025 APRIL 

HOME

Birds are back brunch

March went out like a lion lurking about and April is always a combination of winter and spring so changes are in the winds. 

Is home a place for you?  Is it a person?  A feeling?  Whatever home is to you it should give you peace.  There is a cliche “home is where your heart is”. Hopefully that is true for you. If you believe Jesus lives within your heart then you’re always at home and never alone. 

Birds create a refreshed home each year and they only stay long enough to raise their young. God provides for them so we should trust he will do what we need as well. 

Here is a good bible verse to remember: “Are not five sparrows sold for two pennies?  Yet not one of them is forgotten by God”. Luke 12

Palm Sunday is April 13

Easter is April 20  because of the resurrection we will see The truth cherish your Easter wherever you are🏡🌅💒

I love the light that the full moon gives us at night,if you do too, here is the 2025 moon calendar. April is called the pink full moon. 

Have fun singing in the rain ☔️ 

2025 MARCH. LION OR LAMB

 2025 MARCH 

LION OR LAMB

March came in like a lamb and after the January and February winter storms we had this year, it was a welcome spring break for all. We had three feet of snow and miraculously by the will of God, it melted all slowly into the land. All glory to God, thanks be to Him for every good and perfect thing. 

Most of March will be during lent so I hope you had time to think of what you need to add or give up to make your life more spiritual. Spring won’t come until may but we can hope for Easter as Easter comes April 20, pretty late in April. 

Enjoy the spring skiing and the sunshine as it is such a gift. For that thought; make every day a gift in some way to some one. Think small, a smile, a letter, a comment of encouragement, a hug, all these will make your heart happy and someone else’s too. 

St Patrick’s day on the 17 th will send you to my life scripture or psalm 23. My mom had to memorize it when she was child and always wondered why until she helped me buy my little place. Again, thanks be to God.

2025 FEBRUARY life

2025 February.  life

 

January’s final curtain 

We begin February with another snowstorm. It is technically the shortest month yet always seemingly the longest which means it gives us perseverance and strength of character. February also, has many special holidays so let’s try to enjoy life instead of endure it. 

The first is a God child’s birthday 

The 2nd is groundhogs day  (six more weeks of winter for sure)

The 6 th. Ronald Reagan birthday 

The 9th Super Bowl Sunday (too sad for Buffalo Bills)

The 12th celebrate Abraham Lincoln (full moon and my dad’s birthday) 

13th Galentines day :  Celebrate a brunch with your gal friends or a Little woman’s tea (book theme parties are always fun and creative. 

The 14th Valentine’s Day (flowers…or puff pasty hearts stuffed with fruit)💕

The 17th is this year’s president s day 

The 21st is Heritage day

22nd George Washington birthday 

Spring is still in the distance so cut some willow branches and force them to bloom inside or any blooming branch will do. 🪴I have a green plant in each room to celebrate life and spring to come. 

Jesus saith unto Him,

 I am the way, the truth, and the life; 

no man cometh unto the Father but by me 

John 14;6

2025 JANUARY 

SEEK

2025 rings in with lots of snowing and blowing…

Happy New Year 🎈 Good things in January: seeing an  eagle perched atop the highest cottonwood tree, snow blanketing the ground, bonfires and s’mores, focusing on priorities and new year goals, cleaning and declutterring the house, using green plants in simple decor, more reading time, another minute of daylight each day, drinking hot tea or hot cocoa, and enjoying soup and bread, make a list of your favorite January things.  

Epiphany or happy three kings day is January 6 this year.

 You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart. Jeremiah 29:13

What are we seeking this new year or even this new day?  

Every morning I spend an hour with the Lord which is how I came to my 4* word.  In both Matthew and Luke the word tells us, “ ask, and it shall be given you; seek and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened to you:”  Are we seeking God’s will or our own?

2024 DECEMBER HOPE

                     December 2024 hope

Tis the season for hope. Time to reflect on past Christmas memories and the past year and hope…

I hope your home is filled with light, love and laughter, and of course a few moments of peace since the nights are very long. I love this season because it brings out the very best selves. There’s so much to be thankful for so I hope I can reflect the goodness of God every where I go. 

Merry Christmas
