Darling Hill is a quiet place with a narrow, welcoming lane. The view from the top is breathtaking and its vistas change many times throughout a day. I hope that you can visit often and enjoy it as much as my dear Husband, family and I do. God has allowed Syd and I to sojourn here until He leads us on to another place of service or until He takes us Home to Heaven. The little cabin He has provided sits alongside Darling Hill Road, nestled in, on a northwest corner.

Glorifying in the Simple Things
"Whether, therefore, ye eat or drink, or whatsoever you do; do all to the glory of God." I Cor. 10:31
I was reminded today that the "shallow" amenities of life, eating and drinking, walking and talking, are all ordained by God. I am most thankful for those who have simply lived the Christian life before me through the years. "Think deep, speak and live simple", could be a good quote for today.
The above picture was on my computer screen when I sat down after reading from God's Word. I had not planned on writing this on my post, but what a perfect description of walking simply through the day. Not only were the children stepping out of the 'ordinary' of snow-sledding, they were innocently enjoying a Summer day, taking their spills and getting up again, to start over.
I love that God speaks to us, practically, through His Word. The simple, day to day things are what take us through life. As much as I love reading the "old" writers, reveling in their old-style language (lost today)... Lord, please keep me simple.
