The Power of the Cross and update

Hey everyone!

No I did not finish the remix challenge, but I have been pondering a lot my call to be set-apart from the world and be a lover of the lover of my soul Jesus Christ. I have been learning to sing and play on the piano the song the Power of the Cross recently. Its really a song that expresses my hearts cry to realize the awesome power of our God and how He endured the cross because of our sin and He was raised to life and now lives! Amazing!
My blog will be silent for a while as I do not have a camera, but I have lots of thrift store finds, sewing projects, and other things to share with you all when I get my camera again. My sister is in Florida and she has the camera, hence no pictures or blog posts recently. I have also found I have been getting more done without my blog to have to update daily with the remix challenge. It was fun! But I am doing a break from blogging for a while. Not sure how long, but its really helped me to grow closer to the Lord and my family as well as have a better study schedule.

Oh and I sold my first two items on my etsy store this past week as well! That was exciting! I will be sewing some new things for the shop soon.

God bless!

Taking time away is wonderful...It does bring you so much closer to Our Lord and then when He shows you that it is time to go back...you are full of ideas and excitement!

Enjoy your time away dear friend,

Maria.

Hello, Rebecca Ann!

Thanks so much for stopping by All Things Lovely! I hope you will follow along and keep commenting! It's such a blessing to read what others have to say. I thought Tosha's post was very relevant. I know I have been dealing with the same thing, both in reading books and in blogging. I realize how important it is to examine every aspect in my life and make sure nothing is hindering me in growing more intimately with Christ, as well as keeping up with my daily tasks and chores.

I'm so glad you enjoy the music we have on the site! I had never heard of Cradle Warrior either until just this week I found the music on another set-apart sisters blog. It is truly beautiful and special. I actually tried looking for a place to buy their cd's and came across this website where you can download over 40 of their songs for free!

If you ever want to contribute something to the site, just send it in an email at dwellonlovely@gmail.com I'd love to share it!

I am praying the site will be a blessing and encouragement to whoever finds it. And it's not meant to be a blog for one person to write, but a place for like-minded ladies to connect and share. I look forward to getting to know you more in the blogging world. =)

Blessings, dear one!

I am happy to hear that you are taking some time away for spiritual refreshment. Even our own blessed Lord went aside for prayer and rest! I look forward to your next post when you return to blogging again.

May God bless you!

Congratulations on your etsy store success! And on your great outlook! I often wonder what taking a break from the blog would look like for me. It would surely give me more time in the day : )

hey everyone! yes I am blogging again, but I am trying to do it in moderation. Yes I have gotten more done, but yesterday I spent too much time in blog land again. So I am doing just 1 hour per day. that will be an adjustment! but its what the Lord wants!

In Christ,
Rebecca
