Another Beautiful Day!
I had a better night sleep last night...
Yesterday, the modular home was dropped off. They had trouble going around the corner...so it sat in the beginning of the driveway for a few hours until the brought something to drive on.
Know they will start the repair the barn foundation and then the basement. The home is a split level but when coming in through the back door it is level with the ground.
I started my spring cleaning yesterday...boy is there a lot to do... :-). I was waiting to start until the modular was delivered. :-)
I'll pick up Gracie and bring her out here again today. Kaylee goes to daycare.
Kris is going to stop out to change my oil before my trip to Iowa. He's bringing out Chipotlies...
My favorite :-)
I am so thankful for my family and friends...

Today's Bible Study
Success Blockers
By Charles Stanley
Read | Hebrews 12:1-2
While everyone wants to feel like a success, many—if not most—people do not see themselves that way. You may find this surprising, but a lot of Christians don't consider themselves successful either.
One culprit is fear. We may think we lack ability or have insufficient experience to achieve a task God has given us. As a result, fear can become a dominant emotion. Instead of seeing ourselves as moving forward, we begin to visualize our failure. Might that be the case with you when you picture your future?
Another block to success is doubt. It makes us question our thinking, our God-given abilities, and even His direction. If we do not know what the Lord says in His Word, we may find it hard to understand what He is asking of us personally. Doubt can cause us to question whether or not the direction is from Him. Furthermore, past failures and guilt over prior mistakes can create doubt, just as critical comments from others can impede us. Has doubt slipped into your thinking?
Success can also be hindered by the excuses we offer for not doing what God has asked. Adam blamed Eve; Eve blamed the serpent. Moses said he was not good at public speaking. What excuses have you been offering lately?
There are ways to remove success blockers. Counter your fear with the truth of Scripture; remember you have received a spirit of power from the Lord (2 Tim. 1:7); and invest time in deepening your relationship with God so you will believe His instructions and obey.
Looking forward to another great day..
