~ Simple Joys Saturday ~

This time of year is such a Blessing, to be able to sit in the warm glorious sun on the mornings we are not rushing out. Today, Saturday,  is such a day, all we have to do is get the groceries.  I have my new ugg slippers on, they are so deliciously warm. I would not have bothered getting new ones, except we are going to colder weather at the end of the month. I had my previous ones since the 1970s, so you can imagine they were in a bit of a state, and the sides have split.

So I just sat for a while, with a grateful heart, giving thanks.


As I look out over the garden, there are some new lilies out today, "And why take ye thought for raiment? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin" Matt 6:28 KJB.

This is a lovely clip, beautiful singing voice and background.  What a joy to just decide we would like to hear a particular song, and with a couple of clicks, we have it on youtube.

Have a Blessed weekend. Hugs - Jan

Lovely post, Jan. I enjoy those quiet Saturday mornings without having a lot of things to do. And you already know how much I enjoy seeing the beauty of God's creation.

Have a blessed weekend.

I don't believe there are any of my 70's shoes that made it until 2010...you must really take care of them well!

Love this song you shared...it was a new version for me and the slide show was lovely!

I love the photo of the heart-shaped hands and the words you paired with them. Gratitude does indeed bring so much to our lives! The lilies are a beautiful reminder of His love for us.

I do like the hand in a heart with the light shining through, lovely.
