As the name of my blog indicates, I spend a lot of time thinking about home. Of course, my Heavenly Home is the one that is eternal, so that’s where I need to lay up my treasures, and that’s the one I’m striving for. But in the meantime, I have been given this tiny piece of the here-and-now—this home on the edge of town, this family, this neighborhood—in which to serve Him. And, though this is in the earthly realm, I want the things that happen here to be investments in the Heavenly realm.

Note Card Party: Hearts


♥  The photos I have chosen for Vee's January note card party are full of heart.  ♥

Around my house, colorful autumn and cozy Thanksgiving decorations gave way to warm and welcoming Christmas decor...but now it's all been put away.  Time for a little winter cheer, wouldn't you say?  I think it's time to gather hearts!





The Lord is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart; and saveth such as be of a contrite spirit.  Psalm 34:18
Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me.   Psalm 51:10



 Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and our bodies washed with pure water.  Hebrews 10:22



And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you.  Ephesians 4:32









Do you have a blog?
Then you can join this month's party

    (Have you seen the carrots made into hearts on Pinterest? Oh my! I tried it; it worked.)

    Valentine's Day usually blows by without so much as a nod around here. I should do some subtle lovely things as you have done. I would buy these as less frou-frou Valentine's cards for sure!

    LOVE the photos and the scriptures!

    I like don't usually do much for Valentine's Day, as I don't go in for much frou-frou, but I love that you've found a way to do it keeping it in a prim/farmhouse way!

    You know how much I love your house. The hearts are wonderful and I love the scriptures you included. Perfect for the bottoms of the notecards... But you included a doughnut. Chocolate no less. You certainly know how to get the attention of menopausal women! :)

    I've been 'thinking about home' quite a bit lately which of course makes me think of Cheryl! :)

    Blessings friend, Debbie

    I am such a sucker for a heart shaped anything! Love your selection and verses. They would be great frames up for a wall too!

    Very sweet (no pun intended) heart note cards, Cheryl, and the scripture included, say on the back, or inside the card, would be so fitting. A nice set!

    I <3 this post! Especially the photo of the rolling pin and cookie cutters and jars filled with hearts. And, of course, the heart doughnut. Is it a Dunkin' Donut? :) xo

    Hi Cheryl

    Lovely hearts made more beautiful with inspiring scripture - what a super idea.

    The first heart is my favourite - I would buy a set of those cards to send my friends and family!

    Are we allowed to eat the bottom one?!!!
    Shane ♥
