A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another.

 This year I would like to work on something and make it intentional to help my relationship with God become deeper. I am picking a word for the year and making that thing to focus on through out the year.

2023 just started literally 7 days ago and as I scroll through Facebook and Instagram, I see "My new years resolution is......" or in passing conversations I hear the same thing. 

Burden 

This is the first school year back since covid and this has been the first school year that as a parent, that's been the toughest on my heart. I don't know about you, reading this devotional, blog thing. But My heart has just been hurting!

The photo above is a little seedling of a green pea plant. My husband and I (mainly husband, he has the green thumb) have started a square foot garden and we planted about 5 or so different seeds. We've been seeing people harvest quite a bit of product and with how much we actually eat in this house, it would be a great idea!
