Hope & Five Minute Friday

October 15, 2014 by Traci

I’m so glad you stopped by.  Welcome to my brand new WordPress site!  I’ve been blogging since 2009, and have always wanted to make the switch.  My friend Mandy Roberson helped me and I’m so grateful for her expertise.  I could not have done everything by myself.

The theme of this new place is HOPE.  Feel free to browse around.  Don’t forget to visit me here so you don’t miss updates and great deals!

If you are looking to have your blog or website redesigned, visit my web design page here and browse my portfolio here.

I would love to hear from you!  Feel free to email me here.  Interested in advertising your product or website?  Check out my very reasonable prices here.

Thanks for your visit!

Now for a Five Minute Friday Post.  Kate’s giving away two necklaces.  Go check them out.  If I had to pick a word, of course I would pick inspire or hope.  Which word would you choose?  I’d love to hear in the comments below.

Word Prompt- LONG

Waiting for an answer can seem to take forever.

-waiting on a diagnosis.

-waiting on arriving to a destination: “are we there yet?”

-waiting for a person to change.

-waiting for an answer to prayer.

Whatever it may be, waiting can seem long.  We don’t like long.  We like quick and fast and easy.  But that is not what produces growth in our lives.  Sometimes it takes the long to produce the fruit of a harvest.

There have been many times in my life I thought I was ready or prepared for a task.  Well, I wasn’t, and God knew I needed to grow in some areas first.

God gives you and I the gift of LONG to prepare us for the bountiful harvest ahead.

Sometimes the harvest won’t take place in our own lives, but in the lives of the generation to follow.  Perhaps in your grandchildren?   Are you willing to be obedient TODAY in order to witness that firsthand?

So stay the course.  Be obedient.  Stay in it for the LONG haul.  Learn to sing and dance and enjoy life in the long days.  Do you need this reminder today, in the mundane and LONG days?  I know I do.
