Spring has (almost) sprung,
The grass has (almost) riz,
I wonder where....
Cathie's blog is!
Well, for heaven's sake... here it is and the doors are once again open! Listen... I'm probably just as surprised as you are!
After closing the doors almost seven months ago I continued using the Rooms of Pure Grace from time to time, as a place that I could enjoy the ease of popping in whenever I had something to contribute, and that is how I will continue to use these Rooms.
Little snippets, here and there of days, do not by any means, a life make - and so what you find here will never be the sum total of who I am - however, what I hope you do find here is blessing and encouragement, whenever you decide to drop in for a visit.
I look forward to the days that lie ahead, and in sharing with you, from time to time, those things that have found meaning to me in my life.
Don't forget to say hello whenever you do drop by, I always enjoy your company!

Hip Hip Hoorah!
My partner in blogging is back!
I will enjoy spending some leisure time soon reading your older posts.
There is beauty to discover.
Thanks for sharing.
It is so nice to hear from you dear sister. I have missed you. Keeping you in my prayers and looking forward to seeing you and also checking in to your your "blob".
Progress has been made with my time of "resting". I struggled at first trying to figure out what He had in mind for me. But now I am being "Still". Such a small word, 4 letters that speaks volumes to me.
Later then....xx
Hi you two... it's fun to meet here with you again!
Hey Edna, you've given me my giggle for tonight! I've thought of you so often over these past few weeks, knowing that this is your time of 'resting'. I was also thinking of how in the O.T. the land was to lie fallow (to rest) every 7 years (no TILLING allowed) in order to become replenished and build nutrients back into the soil for the planting and harvesting that was yet to come.
You said "now I am being "Still". Such a small word, 4 letters that speaks volumes to me. "
So here comes my giggle... there is only one letter difference away from land that is "STILLED" and land that is "TILLED"!
I rejoice with you in the knowledge that during this time, as you perhaps watch other 'fields' producing their yield in abundance, that you are in fact being replenished, nourished and readied, by God Himself, for the planting and harvest that is yet to come through you.
love you!
Hi there...
Here is my chuckle for the day. As I was drifting off to sleep last night I realized that "still" has 5 letters and not 4 so maybe I am in a till right now!!!!
I do believe He is tilling me and I get quite excited when I "get it". My growth is not always in leaps and bounds but ever so slight and quiet but it is huge in the fact that it is so clear. I can almost hear My Father say...why does it take you so long to understand My Love for you...slow learner?? Although, "understand" is not exactly the correct word but I do know and experience His Love and it makes my heart jump for joy.
You have been instrumental in that growth as He uses you to guide our study and teach us how to discover the truth by searching His Word while getting to know Him on a more intimate level. I must admit that precept upon precept does not come easily but it is becoming
easier.
Blessings, prayers and love to you.
Angie....I don't know if you have had time to check in but I want to say "Aloha" to you and Jim. May you enjoy your time away, returning to us relaxed, rested, rejuvenated and tanned as you enjoy your walks on the beach, laying poolside, taking in the sites with your loved ones and taking pleasure in the quiet times He provides for you.
Thoughts and prayers go with you.

Hi Edna,
Cathie just pointed out to me that you had left a little message for me... Thank You!...what fun to be back blogging! I know that there is going to be so much going on in this special little corner that Cathie has set up for us "sisters". I am hoping that I can check up on all of you to see what you have to share.
I plan on taking my study with me and wonder how many little bunny trails I will wander off on...help!
Jim is very excited to be going and I am a little concerned that I will not be able to convince him to come back home when the time comes. He keeps telling me that he is going back to his homeland. I keep reminding him that he is
Ukrainian...NOT Hawaiian!
Cathie, thank you for the email. It was so good to hear from you. It meant a lot to me and yes, we will have that long overdue visit.
I will keep all of you close in prayer and hope to join you in study in April.
Now... lets see if I can remember how to post this...where is that little blue man???
Have a wonderful time Angie! You tell Jim that all he needs is a Hawaiian shirt a little more of a tan and if I squint real hard I could totally take him for being a Ukrainian-Hawaiian... I understand it is a state of mind anyway! I think you'll both acclimate beautifully! Enjoy!
love you!
