“....MY BRETHREN, COUNT IT ALL JOY WHEN YOU FALL INTO VARIOUS TRIALS, KNOWING THAT THE TESTING OF YOUR FAITH PRODUCES PATIENCE...” JAMES 1:2-4

Those words tell it all! My week has been filled with many trials! Dave and I have been sick and the kids are on summer break! I don’t know who has suffered more this week...the children... or my husband and I? In my opinion...Definitely the children! So, I will give James 1:2-4 to all those parents, grandparents, and children out there who are trying to survive the summer break! I can’t wait tell August! So, I pray, “God help me...give me patience!”

Here are some words from one of my favorite songs “Count It All Joy” by Susie Luchsingers:

Count it all joy ~ this trial you’re in ~ God is just working on you from within ~ He’s letting patience have its perfect work in you ~ To make you more like Him when it is all through.

Have a Blessed weekend!
