Hello my wonderful friends! I feel like I’ve lived a year of life in just a short time. I missed posting Farmhouse Friday #224 last week because our 26 yr. old son was in a motorcycle hit and run. As a result, he has extensive injuries but will be okay after several more weeks of healing. I was allowed to stay at the hospital with him the entire time and just sitting there in the quiet listening to him breathe gave this momma’s heart some relief.
The names of the Lord that continue to give me great comfort are El Roi, The God Who Sees, Jehovah-Jireh, The Provider, Jehovah-Rapha, Our Healer and Jehovah Shalom, The Lord of Peace. I’m so grateful knowing the Lord has him, has a plan and His plans are always better than ours. Thank you so much for the well wishes and prayers. They are felt and we can see praises upon praises upon praises.
So keep those prayers coming!
FARMHOUSE FRIDAY #225!
Okay now onto some fun stuff. If you’d like to see the links from last week’s Farmhouse Friday #224, click here on The Painted Hinge blog and it will take you straight to it.
3 Simple Tips For Throwing A Fun Fall Party Around The Fire Pit
Having had something done early (that’s a miracle), I was able to join 30 bloggers for The Best Fall Home Tour hosted by my friend Kelly at The Tattered Pew. If you’d like to see all 30 and my 3 Simple Tips for Throwing a Fun Fall Party Around the Fire Pit, click here. So many fabulous fall looks and ideas! Now let’s see
Nancy C shared her quick and easy recipe for the cutest little acorns I ever did see! You’d be the hit of home and party with these little yummies.
Julie at Restyle Relove shows off a how she redesigned her treasures for a whole new look. Check out her tour for great ideas!
Becky at The Vixen’s Den shows off the redo of this armoire. When I saw all the wonderful work she put into it, all I could say was wowza! Definitely worth checking out and pinning for later (or now!).
Lora at Lora Bloomquist shows some fantastic ways she’s used her vintage finds in decorating her home. I’ve wanted a vintage ice cream bucket forever! I know you’ll find something too when looking at her treasures.

I am so sorry to hear about your son. We did a Wednesday night Bible study series on the names of the Lord and the ones that are bringing you comfort are so powerful It touched my heart that you mentioned it. Praying for you both and your family. So thankful you were able to be with him.

Me too. I was afraid with all the Covid restrictions it would be impossible. But it was such a relief. I’m not sure how he would have managed without me being there. Thank you so much for praying.
Cindy, just hearing your testimony of God’s love and faithfulness is a huge blessing to us all. I’m praising God that your son has a good prognosis and you’ve been able to spend time with him during this important time. Sending a big hug and prayers for a full and quick recovery. Take care of yourself too, Cindy!
