Pass it On

LIFE ~ Love in full expression

Well, my time as a nanny has almost come to a close. So, I decided to start a new blog. One that is more about my life in general, and not just one part of it. Nannyventure had become a place to keep everyone up to date on the family, but I didn't like the title, url or the description for that purpose and couldn't figure out how to change it.

So I tried to figure out how to encompass all that my life includes into a title - God, family, homeschool, 4H, volunteering with kids, midle school youthand animals, photography, crafts - what do I care the most about? What I came up with was this~ helping ~ people and animals. I love to help, always have.

My favorite verse in the Bible is Galatians 6:9 ~

Let us not become weary in doing good,

for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.

For as much asI love to help others, I do sometimes get worn out, tired and discouraged. But this verse gives me hope. I truly believe that we are blessed in order to pass that on - blessed to be a blessing. Another great verse that I really love is in Hebrews and it talks about helping others ~
Do not forget to entertain strangers, for by so doing some people have entertained angels without knowing it. ~Hebrews 13:2


I will move all my old posts over here, with the same dates (if posssible) so they will be in the archives, then I will delete the nannyventure blog. But I will send out reminders and such to everyone first. :)
