To Him be the Glory

I love finding new sources of Godly inspiration.

Especially when they are such a visual.  
A true feast of delight, 
for eyes and ears.

Such is Ann Voskamp.

You will need to turn off the soothing music I have provided on Playlist, to your right.

Ann is a farmer's wife, 
which makes her a farmer too, 
because we farmers know, 
it takes a family to make it happen.

Her husband, whom she married at age 16, farms 600+ hogs on Ontario land.  
We farm 2...

Ann is busy with homeschooling six children.

And writing an incredible Blog that will take you on a daily journey of grace.

Grab a cup of your favorite soothing drink, and find out more about Ann (without an e).


In addition to my new stop at "Ann's place", 
my daily journey takes me to one of my favorite Blogs
written by a kindred spirit,
Terri.

Terri is also a farmer, married to a cheesemaker, in the dairy state of Wisconsin.

She, too, homeschools her dear, sweet children.  

Their family is full and bustling with horses, pigs, goats, cows, chickens...and more.
The children...
Alexis, Cole, Grace and Micah.

And Trent, who has gone to be with the Lord.

The loss of a 12-year old boy, who loved life, is teaching others what it is to gain.

To gain a loving, trusting, all-encompassing relationship with Christ Jesus.

Terri tells us the story, giving Him the glory.

But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. 
To him be the glory both now and to the day of eternity. 
Amen. 
2 Peter 3:18

Until tomorrow, God willing.
