“For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope.
Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will hear you. You will seek me and find me, when you seek me with all your heart”
Jeremiah 29:11-13
Wishing each and everyone a Happy New Year!
After declaring I would not, I finally did it-I joined Instagram last January! And much to my surprise, I have actually enjoyed this form of social media. But the real unbelievable news is that Butch joined Instagram after we started blogging! He does not do Facebook and had often stated he would not be involved in any social media-but the blog was the game changer!! I am still learning that oftentimes what we say we will never do, we end up doing! I know that many of my friends are not on Instagram, so I decided that I would share some of my images that have not been used on the blog previously. As I began to write the captions, I realized the photos that I had chosen had something in common. Flowers…food…reading…coffee…all things that I love and are all a part of our everyday living!
