It certainly is hard to believe that 4 months from today it will be Christmas, especially since it is so hot outside! Hopefully today’s Holiday cards will help get us in the mood for the holidays!

“As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord”. In today’s gospel Simon Peter asks a crucial question, “Lord, to whom shall we go, you have the words of everlasting life.”
True enough, but what is faith? For me, faith is listening to the Lord, believing what I hear and acting on what I believe with love! Sure there are a lot of distractions and even evil goings on in our world, but the one safe way to know we are on the right track is to listen with our hearts and always act with love.
Life gets messy! Bad things happen to good people! What we must always remember is that faith is what sees us through even the darkest of times. So listen with your heart, believe what you hear and act in kindness and love.
I pray you will have a blessed and faith-filled week.
Thanks for stopping by! Until next time, be blessed, Renae

Yesterday’s blog hop really got me in mood for fall so I thought I would share another card that I created using the Gorgeous Leaves Bundle. I really like the look of Cajun Craze with a splash of Garden Green. Here I also added a bit of Old Olive. Again the Blessed sentiment is from the Festive and Bright Bundle.
I know, I know, I have used this greeting twice in a row and have totally neglected the images from this bundle. Next week, I plan to showcase a card of two using images in Festive and Bright! Stay tuned…….

Mary certainly was a women of great faith and trust. Elizabeth praises her because of her belief and her courage to live in truth. Did you notice how Mary responds? She passes along the praise and gives glory to God.
There is no false humility in Mary’s prayer. It is the true humility of knowing that all that is being accomplished in her is being accomplished by God. She not only accepts the greatness of her mission, but she accepts it fully, joyfully and without hesitation.
It is much like the line in today’s gospel, “The hungry he fills with good things while the rich are sent empty away.” We have come to understand that the hungry are those who are aware that they can do nothing by themselves and that everything is a gift from God. The rich would be those who think they have it all when in reality, they have nothing that lasts.
Let us choose then to put our trust in the Lord and to do His will l joyfully and fearlessly, giving all glory to the one who created us. I pray that you have a blessed week!
