Here's my verse for this go-around:

Trust in Him at all times, you people; pour out your heart before Him; God is a refuge for us.
Psalm 62;8 NKJV

July is here! Can you believe it? 2015 is half over...

Here is my July 1st SSMT verse. I read it a couple of weeks ago in a devotion and it really touched me. I believe God does hear me. He hears my prayers, He knows my thoughts, He holds my future.

But as for me, I watch in hope for the Lord,
    I wait for God my Savior;
    my God will hear me.
Micah 7:7 NIV

H.O.T.

Hot. We can now officially use that term when referring to our weather. In the Phoenix area, "hot" does not enter our vocabulary until the temps are 110 or above. We have definitely reached "hot" this week. We had a high of 112 yesterday and are headed to 115 in the next few days. The good news is that at the end of the 10 day forecast, we drop back down to a warm 107. Ahhh...

This is a verse that I should have engraved or tattooed on my brain and in my heart. It's a verse that I find myself repeating time after time when anxiety threatens to overcome me. It's a promise from God that I rest in.

Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.
1 Peter 5:7 NIV

I've been buying up boxes of all kinds to make as gifts.

This cigar box is going to my oldest son. I had to finagle the top so that the ridge that sticks up all the way around would have a "well" to fit in so the box lid would close.

Trick or Treat
