The girls that I babysit and I are on a sewing kick this week while my kids are all at camp. I found this contest to enter from Keeper of the Home for a $100 gift certificate to purchase material or patterns from Marie Madeline Studio. Visit their site so you can enter too! http://www.keeperofthehome.org/2010/06/1000th-post-party-giveaway-marie-madeline-studio-fabric-and-patterns.html

Reading through some old journals this morning, I came across the lyrics of a song that used to minister to me. I thought the words kind of spoke to the way I have been feeling this week.

Learning To Trust In You

That's why I am learning to trust in you

In Everything I do

Learning to trust in you

Cause I know in my heart that you're true

But sometimes its so hard to do

Father, little children must grow up

and to grow we've got to learn to trust

and to trust we've got to cling to you

And when you tell me you will hold me close

Its the very thing I want the most

but its the very hardest thing to do

I've got this pain inside me

It speaks to me loud and clear

When there's so much to gain theres always so much to lose

Whatever I lost, I'll find in you.
