Affordable Summer Fun
It's that time of year, to scope out your local U-Pick Farms and pick those strawberries.
We went today and picked 4 quarts for $10. Not as cheap as Walmart, but you can't get them this fresh at the store.
The kids and I ate a few while picking and couldn't believe how juicy and delicious they were!
Now, should we just eat them for dessert? Or maybe make some preserves?

Today's Devotional - Trials in your Life
"For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin." Hebrews 4:15
When something bad happens to us, we may respond with, "What did I do? I must have done something terrible." Then we proceed down the trail of morbid introspection or what I call "navel gazing." We look down and into ourselves. We take ourselves apart piece by piece, examining and re-examining ourselves. Then we put ourselves back together trying to figure out what we did wrong.
It may be that you have done absolutely nothing wrong, but God is simply testing your faith. You see, if we don't understand this, we may get discouraged.
The seeds of doubt and discouragement sprout in the soil of ignorance.
Claim the promises of 1 Peter 1:3-9 for strength in the midst of your trial.
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, which according to his abundant mercy hath begotten us again unto a lively hope by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, 4 To an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and that fadeth not away, reserved in heaven for you, 5 Who are kept by the power of God through faith unto salvation ready to be revealed in the last time. 6 Wherein ye greatly rejoice , though now for a season, if need be , ye are in heaviness through manifold temptations: 7 That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth , though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ: 8 Whom having not seen , ye love ; in whom, though now ye see him not, yet believing , ye rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory : 9 Receiving the end of your faith, even the salvation of your souls.
