It's wonderful! I need some time to marinate in it, I think. I absolutely LOVE it with your pic. Seems to just fit there.<br /><br />As moms, we get sucked into our kids or what needs or has to be done on a daily basis and getting into His word falls to the wayside. I think that's Satan's subtle way of pulling us off track. But as long as we get back up after we stumble, it's all good. God has us.Courtneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04286536071789552916noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2998405629356082628.post-64848276784498873922011-06-29T05:20:47.518-07:002011-06-29T05:20:47.518-07:00Casey, thank you for this. I was just thinking ye...Casey, thank you for this. I was just thinking yesterday how I am usually so open and honest when friends talk to me about their troubles. I tell them my honest feelings and thoughts and I often hear, "I like talking to you because you don't sugar-coat things; you tell it like it is." But there is one person in my life that I bite my tongue with. She is so sensitive that I fear my honest reaction will be the end of our friendship. Finally I thought about it yesterday. I decided that I am not doing either one of us any favors by not being honest. I shared an honest reaction I had to something she said yesterday. I was careful to word it just right so I didn't sound accusing. She quickly told me she had to go and hung up. Funny thing was that I didn't feel bad at all by it. I keep saying that I would rather have a relationship go through troubles and maybe even end based on honesty rather than pretend things are different than they really are and have a friendship based on false pretenses.<br /><br />Keeping with my honesty is better theme, I wanted to let you know that I thoroughly enjoy your background music on your blog but it makes it difficult for me to hear the videos. =( I am not sure if there is an answer to that but I just wanted to let you know that the videos you post have to compete with the music.Nickihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13877564312244508811noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2998405629356082628.post-64545731378961668082011-06-29T05:17:15.749-07:002011-06-29T05:17:15.749-07:00Wow, Casey just amazing!

I appreciate that you were honest about your struggling to get in the Word and be consistent, as I feel it is a daily struggle for me, as well. <br /><br />These verses were very convicting, as I have been battling my head and my heart the issue of simplicity, the issue of "enough" vs. "too much," the issue of materialism. I can honestly say that I can say with my mouth, "God just give me my daily bread," but that scares my heart, my flesh, and my mind to death. I have held and continue to hold the things of this world too tightly. <br /><br />The Holy Spirit used you in my life today to press me further into the truth that less is more and I must let go.<br /><br />Thanks dear friend.......have a blessed day!

As you have read on my blog, I have struggled with feeling like I AM enough, and your second point about God giving us all that we need was so dear to my heart. I have thought about several things lately that if I had or was able to do, how I wouldn't rely on God or seek Him out. He is so smart and knows us better than we know ourselves! Thanks for the great words, and all your encouragement dear friend!ElissaMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01905449699810982008noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2998405629356082628.post-74531687180875073902011-06-28T22:19:55.197-07:002011-06-28T22:19:55.197-07:00Before I had my babe, I pictured reading scripture...Before I had my babe, I pictured reading scriptures to him while I nursed and then sharing picture books of Bible stories as he grew. I'm embarrassed to say that after 15 months this is just not a regular part of our routine. Sometimes our only spiritual moment of the day is one of the church songs he gets before bed.<br /><br />Adjusting to life with children is tough work girlfriend.

I know you've been handling a lot lately but you've done it so well. So glad you're bringing it back to the word, but I would never have noticed that your heart went astray since I see you as such a strong influence in my life. <br /><br />I love what you did here - I guess because that's how I really connect with God. ::HUGS::Ashley Siskhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08964259733610203026noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2998405629356082628.post-61850644850063161482011-06-28T19:22:54.778-07:002011-06-28T19:22:54.778-07:00Beautifully said Casey- you are always able to mov...Beautifully said Casey- you are always able to move me in enormous ways!Gina Kleinworthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14507282953489528665noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2998405629356082628.post-27114475320798016822011-06-28T19:08:17.476-07:002011-06-28T19:08:17.476-07:00I have never really read that passage I don't ...I have never really read that passage I don't guess.
