Vero Lake: Living in the Country here in Florida

What an anointed and blessed life from God! We all receive an anointed life, although some do not see all the blessings and goodness of God in our lives. We need to count our blessings! I love the beach here in Indian River County, Wabasso Beach is the best!  We need to give God all the glory for all in life! He has anointed us! Are you counting your blessings? Are you praying? Praying for others and this world? Are you staying positive, loving, and joyful in the Lord? Enjoy this life you are given! Make the best of it! Love everyone! Be kind to all! Pray for everyone! Don't let any hate slip in or be blinded by hate, which we see a lot of today. It is all about following Jesus! Reflecting, forgiving, imitating, and loving like Him! He is the way, the truth, and the life, He is the only way to Heaven, we need to follow Him, we need to love like Him! Remember you are anointed!  I saw this in the Main Street Thrift Store today in Sebastian, nice to keep in mind!  Enjoy my w...

Just so many blessing to count! I'm so blessed! Today the beach was like a green flag summer day at the beach! I love Wabasso Beach! So calm, clean, clear, and swimmable! I just have way too many blessings to count! I am not sure I can count that high! I am so blessed beyond measure! I had a wonderful upbringing. Loving parents who never drank and went to church and brought us up to know Jesus. Seven of us growing up in the country in Sauquoit, NY, what a blessing! To work on my neighbors farm, to be around animals on our own farm, my father had cows, pigs, goats, chickens, rabbits, bees, he was a do it all type of guy. We were raised on raw milk and honey!  I was blessed to go to a small town country school, paid my way through college myself while working at HoJo's. I was able to become a math teacher and worked for almost 40 years as an educator and professor at a university. I had the best career.  So many accomplishments, teaching awards, and publications. I have the best...

  What a blessing to live in the country here in Florida. VLE and Indian River County offer some nice natural living with lakes, ponds, the ocean, woods, it is a blessing to swim and walk around here where I love. So much to enjoy. I have so many turtles living right on my property. It is nice to see the turtles, bunnies, cardinals, blue jays, redheaded woodpeckers, hawks, squirrels, just so much wildlife and nature here in VLE. I just love it! It all comes from God and is a real blessing for sure! I noticed this week a turtle dug a new home in the ditch by my house right in from of the AT&T boxes, I see so many turtles here, little big, and medium sized. I love them! The other day when I was in my backyard, the turtle was out walking around and then a bunny came, they were close to me, and then the two were even closer to each other, it was such a nice feeling to have these animals so close, unafraid, and living and breathing here with me. God really is so good to us here, I l...

  What a week of God's blessings! It has been so nice this week. Plus we received a lot of good rain. so all is nice and green. I was able to transplant, plant, propagate, and do so much gardening and praying! God gave us a nice week at the beach and just so much peace! The great news too is that we found out that they are opening a Planet Fitness here in Sebastian now, so we will not have to drive all the way down to Vero Beach anymore. God is so great! What a blessing! I really love our house here in VLE, so nice, unfortunately our street is not enforced by police and it is supposed to be 35mph, but cars drive 50, 60, 70 mph, it has gotten very fast and loud. While we loved it here five years ago when we moved here, it is a little more congested, loud, and fast for us. We would like to buy up north and sell in Florida, taxes are higher here and after 30 years, it would be nice to move north closer to family and back to a slow country like environment where I grew up in Sauquoit. ...
