quote 4.19.11

Yes, two posts in one day.  Things have been a bit crazy around here.  We've been busy the past week and J-bug has had a bit of a cold so I guess the ideas have piled up a bit.
A couple weeks ago at my church's mom's group, the question of having a "life verse" was thrown out.  I'm not sure that I have one, or did.  I've been thinking a lot about this.  There are of course a few verses that I have filed away in my brain.  But a life verse to live by, to always retreat to - I'm not sure I have one of those.  I'm also not sure that a bible verse is considered a quote, but it's close enough for me.
One that touches me, that a musician at church wrote music to, is from John 14.  I have been pondering over claiming this one as my life verse, or at least one of them.  I do believe love and peace are the ways to heaven on earth; I think that is what God intends for us.


Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid. -John 14:27

quote 4.9.11

One of my favorites.  I think it's a good one to live by:
I did then what I knew how to do.  Now that I know better, I do better. ~Maya Angelou

quote 4.6.11

Where you invest your love, you invest your life

-"Awake My Soul" by Mumford and Sons

J-bug and I spent a couple nights last minute with some college friends.  On the way home we listened to some Mumford and Sons (if you haven't listened to them, you ought to - amazing music and lyrics). 
As I listed I thought, ah, a quote once in a while in the blog would be some good variety.  I see and hear many good ones and now there's a place to keep track of them and share!
This one hit my heart today, especially after seeing good friends.  It's one to remember.  Love rules all and really is one of the most important things here on earth.
