Has it been 60 days yet?!?!


A very wise man once told me we NEVER GIVE UP (thanks dad)... so I guess I will keep writing... I don't know why it's MY LIFE IN 60 DAYS, but whatever, I guess I still have a while to go... just keep writing, writing, writing....

Well, I do have a pretty neat story, just another one of those weird things that happened...

I used to have this nice green lawn, with a little garden, a tomato plant, and some other veggies, that were all looking so ripe and beautiful... Well, everything began to die off... It's sorta a sad story! I used to love to go out and look at the beautiful lawn my hubby grew from dirt, and my son and I would go out and pick our veggies when they'd ripen... but then after this summer I go out, and bam... dead!

Maybe I forgot to water (tryin to save money around here...j/k) but really, it was beautiful this spring, and I just don't know what happened. Well, as my son and I walked over to the tomato bush it was all weathered and dried out, the vine and branches were dead, but there were four beautiful ripe tomato's on it. Honestly, it was just weird!

Well, of course this brings me to my daily scripture, (my mommas favorite)...

"I am the vine; you are the branches. If a man remains in me and I in him, he will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing." John 15:5

HOW TRUE! Sometimes we feel like giving up, like life has just gotten to hard... but that is when our FAITH in HIM continues to grow, and how amazing, we can still bear fruit! Still great fruit comes off a dead branch. Sometimes when we feel so dead, He can put life back into us and help us persevere through the trials.

We are all just a bunch of disciples sent by Him to save the world and not condemn it... so just keep going, and NEVER GIVE UP! (John 3:17)
