Monday Inspiration!

Good Morning everyone! Here is this Monday's Inspiration! 
This image was taken on my trip to the smokies last fall. Everyone on my trip was very gracious in getting up super early so that I could watch the sunrise from a great vantage point. 

I always love watching the sun rise. It seems to just scream out God's wonderfulness. Sunrises are a spectacular display of God and His power, and majesty. I picked this verse because it brings our focus back to God. and God alone, just like sunrises do for me. 


Have a great Monday!

Monday Inspiration!

Good Morning! This weeks Monday Inspiration comes from a trip I did to PA. It was really early and Shelby and I were starting our drive back home... when Shelby graciously agreed to pull over and let me get a picture of the morning calm that was all around us. It was a peaceful moment.


I have found the Lord to be so gracious over and over again. Time after time He has given me strength and blessed me with peace. So I can truly attest to the truth in the verse. My prayer is that you to are getting to experience HIS strength and HIS peace today. If not, let Him bless your life today. 

God Bless,
Kristina Cowan

Ladybug Happiness!

Lindsay made Andrea this very cute Ladybug outfit, and she was so happy to sit in my red rocker and "play with me" I finally got some genuine Andrea smiles. :-) Made me very happy. 



They grow up way too fast! I can't believe how big she is already. I feel like I just took her newborn photos!

Monday Inspiration~ New Zealand again!

Happy Monday everyone! Yes, I almost didn't get it posted today... but I DID! :-) 



I always think of my travels whenever I see verses of God's majesty. His wonderful creation is a great visual for us on Gods wonders. Even if it is just such a small part. We can not fully comprehend His true majesty. 


Good night, 
Kristina

Monday Inspiration!~ Fiji

I'm sorry today's Inspiration is coming so late in the day. It's one from my Fiji trip back in 2008


This was a day at the end of a 4 week trip to New Zealand and then a week trip in Fiji. It was a day of rest, reflection, and relaxation. It was a very wonderful day... Full of good "firsts" for me. Snorkling was one of my favorite "firsts" of the day. 

God Bless,
Kristina

James & Shelby

 This couple is near and dear to my heart. This is my little sister and best friend, Shelby, and James Reid. You all may recognize his name from my series of posts in the Smokies last fall. 

Some of you have been wondering about the absence of Shelby in my posts lately, well... this is why. She has been pursuing a relationship with James in MD. The two of them have done a great job of not only following God's guidance in each of their lives, but also encouraging one another in righteousness. 

It is so wonderful to see not only how happy they are, but to also see them making an effort to not only be pleasing to God through their relationship, but also trying to please and honor both of our families as well. 

Anyway, here are a few pictures for those of you that would like to see them. 








After the "session" which they were both very gracious in allowing me to photograph... We went to Harbor Lights where I got to introduce James to Italian Cream Sodas! 

Shelby has been out visiting his family for the last two weeks, but will be heading home this weekend. I know the two of them would love to have your prayers as they continue to pursue this relationship, and see what God has in store for them. I know neither one is looking forward to the upcoming separation.... 

Philippians 4:19 

And my God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus.

Playing in the sunflowers with family.


Alright, now you get to see how much fun I had playing in a field of sunflowers. 

 They just stretched on and on forever!




We were waiting for the sun to get a little lower for portraits, so I was "playing around" 

 My amazing parents again! My favorite of them is on the previous post about the sunflowers. :-) 



 goofy girls...


 The sunflowers were GIANTS this year... SO TALL! 




Dad took a couple of mother daughter photos for me! Thanks Dad!  



 The little baby of the family. 






Well, I had a lot of fun with the sunflowers. I hope you enjoyed getting to see them now too. :-) 

Night all!
Kristina
