It's Fall...Maui Style










































So we don't have leaves falling or the fall smell in the air...but we do have a real live Pumpkin Farm in upcountry Kula!


What a fun way to celebrate such a wonderful season!



A surrendered life



I am so glad God is in charge! He cares about us, even the gardens we grow! We have loved our sunflowers, our first flowers we have grown from seeds. I hope God smiles down on the flowers we grow!

I had an overwhelming "momma" day. I sometimes feel very incompetent for this role at times. Then I receive a call from a friend who needs prayer and in the same hour hear of another friend who has just had her apartment smoked out by a fire above her and will lose belongings. I am glad God is in charge.
Why do I wait so long in the day to turn it over to Him. Why do I think I can "go it alone"... no amount of love I have for those in my care is enough, I need God. I have been thinking, "I just need a balanced life and then all will be good." I don't think God is in the business of balanced lives, He wants surrendered ones!
I am glad God is in charge! If I will just live that truth!
