A Road of twists & turns

As most of you know this trip has been filled with twists & turns with lots of breakdowns within the first week of our trip. We entered the great unknown, with not too much RV experience but now its safe to say we sure are experienced now! Even with its twists & turns of challenges we have learned so much about Patience & how blessed we are.
I am going to name a few of the blessings:
#1 EVERY SINGLE PLACE WE BROKE DOWN AT WAS NEAR A TOWN.
#2- God has truly provided every stop on the trip!
#3-He has truly touched the hearts of many!
#4-I have personally got to share about the plight of the orphans. I was so pleased to be able to update someone on the perspectives of HIV+ that things have gotten better over the years for their lives. I got $20 from a family member, a check from my Grandma, & hopefully I will have another from a friend of my grandmas but you know what even if I did not get those donations (which every little bit helps!) I felt blessed to share with those people about Reeces Rainbow.
We truly are being used for Gods honor & glory to bless others! We never expected anything in return but God truly has blessed us in this journey! We have made new friends, enjoyed a small town, & have had sooo much fun using our talents for God! Heck we even went a little red neck sitting by the road enjoying the evening one day while the RV was having trouble. We sat out in lawn chairs patiently waiting playing guitars & singing by the side of the road. I mean maybe we all need to have that time where we are not rushing around to do things & instead enjoy Lifes little pleasures? As one of my shirts say: "Live Simply so that Others can simply live". So instead of buying a starbucks today donate to an organization like Reeces Rainbow? I mean I am sure coffee at home taste just as good. Please remember to Live simply, people wonder why I donate my funds to orphans? Its because I am so blessed with clothes, food to eat, bedding,etc. & I really dislike to shop anyway for myself cause I feel theirs nothing more I could need. My Grandma, really liked that saying & she thinks we all need better awareness of that phrase & I think she is right! I am living simply, & always trying to find new ways to do so. How are you living simply? If your not I encourage you to do so! If you are, never hurts to do better! Well, I think I shall get to bed but I wanted to finally get a post on here. Leah

Overflowing

OVERFLOWING

Elaine Hardwick

So near tears all the time……. Heart overwhelmed

Joy, regrets, blessings, future

Pride, love

How do I capture the moments

Too many to absorb

Be a sponge

Soak now

Squeeze later

When I’m dry

Or forget.

Thankful
