 There is noting like a crisp fall day in Florida. We Floridians get so excited that we bring out the sweaters and jackets and scarves when it hits 45-50 degrees! I even turned on our gas fireplace and had some hot chocolate:)   My favorite part of this week has been sitting on the porch swing with my cup of coffee and bible. Setting time aside for yourself like this is so important especially in the busy days we live in. "Create a clean heart , Renew a steadfast spirit within me Lord. We renew our spirit and cleanse our heart by spending time in His word. I have often found that when I am feeling overwhelmed and weary Gods word is the source that renews my joy and strength.  Hope you can sit awhile today and be refreshed and renewed. Set aside your "YOU" time , this allows you to better love and serve those around you.
 
Hope you have a wonderful weekend!
Take some time for yourself and rest in Him. Treat yourself to a warm cup of cider while your at it!
