On My Heart (vol. 2)

I thought from time to time it might be nice to give you a peek at what’s tugging at my heart strings.

Right now I am…

Celebrating:Β  An old friend was in town over Easter, and I was delighted to learn that she is now a married woman.Β  It was so much fun seeing how God has worked in her life, and her wedding album was beautiful. Β  I love it when Jesus girls get happy endings!

Watching: I’ve tuned in to A.D., the Bible Continues on NBC, the last two Sunday nights. (I winced and closed my eyes through some of the more violent parts.)Β  I also finally sat down to view Episode One of Your Big Family Renovation with Jen Hatmaker.Β  I really enjoyed watching the Hatmakers do their thing and help out another big family with a limited budget.Β  I could only find one episode though, so I am not sure if more are coming since Episode one aired at the beginning of March.

Reading: I just finished reading Chasing God by Angie Smith, and I am working my way through several other half finished books, including Heaven by Randy Alcorn (which is a million pages long and may take me a few years to finish!)

Planning: I’m dreaming about taking a dip in our new pool!Β  That is if it ever gets finished….

Listening: I downloaded the new Passion Album Even So Come.Β  My favorite new song on the album so far is “Draw Near” by Kristan Stanfill.

Making: I am making good use of my crock pot these days.Β  I love how easy peasy it is to make a big hearty meal, and the whole house smells yummy yummy all day while the food is heating up.Β  Here is my favorite “go to” meatball recipe.Β  I make this whenever I have a big group of friends over, or if I have to take an appetizer to a pot luck.

Pondering:Β  My dad discovered these great pictures of his parents recently.Β  I never met them because they both passed away in Cuba when I was little.Β  I find myself wondering how different my life might have been if that whole Fidel Castro thing hadn’t messed things up for my dad’s family.Β

Feeling: Brand new!Β  I visited the hair salon last week.Β  What is it about getting a good hair cut that makes you feel lighter and fresher?

Loving: I love, love, love the Missional Women App!Β  It’s packed full of awesome resources including an ESV audio Bible and lots of other goodies.

  1. You’ve got a big project going on in your backyard – looks like it’s going to be awesome! Thanks for linking back to the “C-word” post. I knew about your heritage, somehow, but had never seen that post – interesting insight. It’s sad what war and politics do to families. Thankful that those of us who are brothers and sisters in Christ can know that in the end all will be made right. Amen!

  2. I LOVE this peek into your life, Lyli! Thanks for sharing with us. Oh, and Chasing God is one of my all-time favorites. We read a shorter version of Heaven called In Light of Eternity with our small group and I loved that.

  3. Love getting a oeek into your loves! One week on SDG we should all share something like this and get to know each other a bit better! Wouldn’t that be fun?

  4. Loved your post, Lyli! It is sooo relatable. Thanks for sharing some of your personal items/thoughts. I am your neighbor today at missional women linkup!
