I too think the multi-tasking idea has become somewhat of an epidemic. It seems like it is a good way to wear out our adrenals etc. There truly is something to be said for just contemplating, creating, reading etc. I usually nap and then wind things down for the day with only the odds and ends of supper to do. Many days I just go ahead and compose our supper in the late morning and oh it feels soooo good to have that done on certain days! : )<br /><br />Thank you again for coming by my blog and taking the time to leave such a sweet comment. I enjoyed seeing your Billy Graham link, I too enjoy those old sermons from time to time, there is just something about them. I also like your John Wesley quote too! <br /><br />Blessings to you and may you have a sweet restful day in Christ. : )Ameliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09093408888499365118noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4718905863879655459.post-82498566078372067002017-03-27T15:27:11.443-04:002017-03-27T15:27:11.443-04:00Dear Mrs. White,

I feel God inspires your writings, as they encourage me to be the best homeschooling, stay at home Mom that I can be without transportation in the cold mountains of the Northwest. Daily depending on God is amazing in it's surprising journey of what is to come on the narrow path. Looking forward to reading more of your writings, and I have your books, as well. What is your mailing address, please? I would love to recieve your newsletters by mailing you a SASE, I no longer have an email. thank you again and God bless . you!<br /><br />love, Mrs. P.

Many times, it is easy to ignore the best things in order to do lesser things and we all suffer when this happens.

Planning the garden is so much fun, I hope your strawberry patch does well this year. Ours wasn't so good last year, but we generally find the year after a not so good year the strawberries are so much better. Our weather is overcast and cloudy but as the tumble dryer broke I'm still putting laundry out on the line, it sort of dryers. Sadly we didn't get any snow to enjoy this year. I hope and pray that Mr White is doing better. Thank you for writing, your posts are an encourager to trust God and just keep going. Well my daughters have just got home. A day of visiting.<br />Blessings to you all<br />shelley p<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4718905863879655459.post-64995916824170181522017-03-25T13:19:36.345-04:002017-03-25T13:19:36.345-04:00Oh how I wish for snow!

I told him I'd go buy them at the store. He said that was cheating. He is right, I wouldn't want to miss out on that beauty! It is extremely rare here, in Southeast Texas, for what slush we call snow and has already gotten quite hot last week as we were planting our garden and doing chores about the house. I told my husband we are already complaining and it isn't even summer yet. We are never satisfied. I try to remember to be joyful in everything and I want so badly for a slower, old fashioned life! I do hope you are feeling well!

I appreciate your insight and can...Dear Mrs. White,<br />I appreciate your insight and can well identify with where you are in life right now.<br />My husband and I lived alone for a couple years, after the 3 boys grew up, and life was peaceful and comfortable. Then he got cancer and after struggling for eight years he left for GLORY. That was five years ago. My pastor son and his wonderful family moved in with me to help me keep his daddy home until the end. Now he is the head of the house and is a marvelous husband, father to his two young daughters ( 8 & 13 )and a son who honors me and serves our church well.<br />However, I find myself exhausted and melancholy frequently. <br />I have some painful issues but nothing to big to not be able to work around. My daughter in law works full time because pastor's don't make a great deal, I try to keep up the wash, dishes (no dishwasher in our home) and make suppers. <br />Having quiet time is essential and they honor that, I guess I'm just emotionally tired. Actually I am incredibly blessed.<br />Anyway, I am always encouraged by your blog and admire you and love your books as well.<br />Thanks for everything.<br />Mrs. Clark<br /> Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17996229972668377139noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4718905863879655459.post-3248959916783178842017-03-25T11:32:33.025-04:002017-03-25T11:32:33.025-04:00A beautiful peaceful post Mrs. White.

I did not always see the blessing in it.
