“This is the day which the LORD hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.” — Psalm 118:24

Today is October 31, a day that brings different thoughts and feelings for many. But I believe every day belongs to the Lord!

“The earth is the LORD’s, and the fulness thereof.” — Psalm 24:1

I refuse to surrender a single day to the enemy! Every sunrise is a gift, every breath a blessing, and every day another opportunity to experience His goodness, reflect His light, and bring Him glory.

We don’t have to celebrate everything associated with a day to rejoice in the gift of the day itself! So today, just like every other day, I choose to rejoice and be glad in Him! ❤️

I was so excited to receive an early copy of Eryn Lynum 🌿 Nat Theo Podcast newest book, Where Wonder Leads, and I have a feeling you’re going to love it as much as I do!

If you love filling your children’s bookshelves with beautiful books that spark curiosity, inspire wonder, and point little hearts toward God, this is one you’ll want to add to your collection.

From the beautiful cover and decorative endpapers to the gorgeous illustrations on nearly every page, this book is filled with delightful things to discover.

And through it all, Eryn takes us on a wonderful adventure, uncovering the beauty, creativity, and extraordinary details of God’s wild and wonderful world.

Come along. There’s something wonderful just around the corner! Because the more we discover about God’s creation, the more we stand in wonder of the One who made it.

I wish they knew…
That decorating for the seasons doesn’t have to cost a lot of money. Some of the most beautiful things we can use are already waiting just outside the door, and autumn may be the easiest season of all.

It’s harvest time, and God’s beautiful blessings abound… colorful leaves, branches and twigs, acorns, fading flowers, moss and ferns, pinecones, vines, berry branches, nuts and seed pods. The possibilities are endless!

But perhaps the loveliest part isn’t even the decorating. It’s taking the time to wander outside and notice what’s there. Gathering a little basketful of things that caught your eye. Bringing them home and finding a place for them. And then, for the next season, being surrounded by little reminders of the day you gathered them.

The beauty isn’t only in the finished result, it’s also in the gathering. 🤎🍂

Mornings in the cottage look a little different when cozy season begins to settle in. 🍂

There’s a chill in the morning air, and the leaves are just beginning to adorn themselves in color for their last dance of the season. A garland of hops dresses the window over the kitchen sink, the candles are lit, and the unmistakable feeling is one that I’ve grown to know and love over the years of observing life here in the forest at Berry Hill.

A warm bowl of freshly ground einkorn was just what this morning was calling for. Add a little cinnamon, nutmeg and cardamom, homemade vanilla, butter and cream, then top it with a handful of walnuts and cranberries…

And you have a delicious bowl of cozy that warms you from the inside out. 🤎

I’ve been working on changing things up for the cozy season around the cottage, and cozy feels a lot like pink and brown to me this year 🤎💗🤎

We’ve been calling to mind things that we are so very grateful for - things others can see, and many that they can’t. I’m so grateful for a Heavenly Father who loves us in ways we can’t even comprehend. Thank You, Father! 🤍🙏🏻🤍

All my life, You have been faithful, and I will sing of the goodness of God 🎶
