Two are better than one; because they have a good reward for their labour….

“Two are better than one; because they have a good reward for their labour.
For if they fall, the one will lift up his fellow: but woe to him that is alone when he falleth; for he hath not another to help him up.
Again, if two lie together, then they have heat: but how can one be warm alone?
And if one prevail against him, two shall withstand him; and a threefold cord is not quickly broken.”
Ecclesiastes 4:9-12

Saturdays are for sisters, sweet smiles, silly socks, and [of course] swinging! ;) ♥

“Cause me to hear thy lovingkindness in the morning; for in Thee do I trust: cause me to know the way wherein I should walk; for I lift up my soul unto Thee.”
Psalm 143:8

“For the Lord God is a sun and shield: the Lord will give GRACE and GLORY: no good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly. O Lord of hosts, blessed is the man that trusteth in Thee.”
Psalm 84:11-12

Reminded tonight of the above verses. ↑ What promises!   The Lord will give GRACE & GLORY! Grace: the freely given, unmerited favor and love of God. I can truly say, I ” have tasted that the Lord is gracious.“ [1 Peter 2:3] and it has left me tremendously humbled! :) He gives grace for every second of the day and He is our Shield & our glory[Ps 3:3]. In all honesty, we cannot fully comprehend this grace which has saved us and supernaturally sustains us yet we need His grace for EVERYTHING! We are completely dependent on His grace and that is truly the best place to be. :)  God’s grace is His all-sufficient provision for every need we have or will have[Phil 4:19]! Because of the Grace of God[Eph 2:1-9], we are saved and complete in Christ lacking nothing[Col 2:10]! He is the God of all grace[1 Pet 5:10]. :) This is a grace that immeasurable, undeserved, and unfathomable but because He is a God rich in mercy, He moment by moment and day by day lavishes His grace on us. What a Savior! Trust in the Lord ladies!  He is a trustworthy Guide & His grace is sufficient! :) And that is my overly random midnight meditation.  ;) Happy Wednesday y’all!

Through many dangers, toils and snares,
I have already come;
’Tis grace hath brought me safe thus far,
And grace will lead me home.

The Lord has promised good to me,
His Word my hope secures;
He will my Shield and Portion be,
As long as life endures.

“But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us, Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;) And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus.  That in the ages to come he might shew the exceeding riches of his grace in his kindness toward us through Christ Jesus. For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God”

“At the same time came the disciples unto Jesus, saying, Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven? And Jesus called a little child unto him, and set him in the midst of them, And said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven.”
Matthew 18:1-3

 

“Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is greatest in the kingdom of heaven. And whoso shall receive one such little child in my name receiveth Me.”
Matthew 18:4-5

“O sing unto the Lord a new song: sing unto the Lord, all the earth.
Sing unto the Lord, bless his name; shew forth his salvation from day to day.”
Psalm 96:1-2

By the grace of God, another Spring Line has been photographed and launched! :) Each season I know it will be only by God’s grace and mercy that we complete and accomplish our goals and this Spring release was nooooo exception! By far, we faced more challenges this launch than any other before. I honestly sit here now in awe of God’s mercy this last week! I happened upon Psalm 59 right in the thick of things this week and, as I read vs 17, I  was so thankful that in GOD alone do I find my strength and He truly is the God of my mercy! → “Unto thee, O my strength, will I sing: for God is my defence, and the God of my mercy.“ :) I could tell y’all about the fact that due to a multitude of what I will call “the unexpected” we were delayed in photographing until 2 days before we launched or how we planned the outdoor photoshoot for the day before we launched and that day we had flash flooding! I could try to describe my terror when my camera had a “Near death” experience ;). Or how our site had an outage right as our new line went live! Fiery darts seemed to continually fly at us BUT God’s mercies are new every single morning and HE brought everything together just in time! “ This I recall to my mind, therefore have I hope. It is of the Lord‘s mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not. They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness.” And I have complete confidence that even if all was “loss”, we didn’t release our new collection, and my camera never worked again ;), God is still the God of my mercy and I have the promise that ALL THINGS work together for good[Rom 8:28]! Whether it is our temporal or spiritual and eternal good, “ALL THINGS” is a promise and I know God is faithful! For we “look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal“[2 cor 4:17-18]!  Today I am rejoicing in the fact that we serve the God of mercy who “worketh all things after the counsel of his own will“[Eph 1:11].   ♥→“I will  sing of thy power; yea, I will sing aloud of thy mercy in the morning: for thou hast been my defence and refuge in the day of my trouble. Unto thee, O my strength, will I sing: for God is my defence, and the God of my mercy.“ PS 59:16-17

“Bless the Lord, O my soul: and all that is within me, bless his holy name.
Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits:
Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth all thy diseases;
Who redeemeth thy life from destruction; who crowneth thee with lovingkindness and tender mercies”
Psalm 103:1-3

“This I recall to my mind, therefore have I hope.
It is of the Lord‘s mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not.
They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness.”
Lamentations 3:21-23

Yes, it is true! 2016’s first official wildflower has sprung with much delight and was hastily picked by the cute[and somewhat crazy] little girl in pink boots. :) We are welcoming the sweetness of Spring just a few weeks early here in Texas!  :) (: The little girl in the pink boots wishes y’all a very Happy Saturday! 

 

“Consider the lilies how they grow: they toil not, they spin not; and yet I say unto you, that Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. If then God so clothe the grass, which is to day in the field, and to morrow is cast into the oven; how much more will he clothe you, O ye of little faith? And seek not ye what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink, neither be ye of doubtful mind. For all these things do the nations of the world seek after: and your Father knoweth that ye have need of these things. But rather seek ye the kingdom of God; and all these things shall be added unto you.”
Luke 12:27-31

“Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man. For God shall bring every work into judgment, with every secret thing, whether it be good, or whether it be evil.”
Ecclesiastes 12:13-14

“The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: a good understanding have all they that do his commandments: his praise endureth for ever.”
Psalm 111:10

“I delight to do thy will, O my God: yea, thy law is within my heart.”
Psalm 40:8
