"I Know the Master of the Wind"

(Evening photo of sailboats on the bay at Kemah, Texas. Click on it if you'd like, for a better view )

This song is on my heart today.......

"I know the Master of The Wind" by The Hemphills

My boat of life, sails on a troubled sea

whenever there's a wind in my sail

But I have a Friend, Who watches over me

When the storm turns into a gale

I know the Master of the wind

I know the Maker of the rain

He can calm the storm

Make the sun shine again

I know the Master of the Wind

Some times I soar, like an eagle through the sky

Among the peaks my soul can be found

An unexpected storm, may drive me from the heights

It brings me low, but never brings me down
Thank You, Jesus,for being the Master of all the Storms in my life.. You speak sweet peace to my Soul.......

A Lovely Evening........



( These aren't the best pics I've ever taken, but definitely not the worst, either.... haha! I hope they give you a glimpse of what we saw this evening)

This evening, my Mom, sister and I, decided to go have seafood for dinner. We drove to the Kemah Boardwalk, which is well - known and loved in our area, for having lots of good restaurants, as well as several rides and a boardwalk area with old - fashioned, boardwalk - type midway games. There is also a shopping area which features souveniers, A Christmas shop, a ladies' clothing store, as well as shops filled with candles, purses, figurines, etc.

Our favorite place to stop is the Thomas Kincaid Gallery. We go in to intently study those awesome paintings and prints....... and how we dream of owning one someday! They are out of our price range at the moment.... but at least they are there for us to enjoy every time we visit Kemah, right?

Tonight we really enjoyed our yummy fried shrimp, stuffed crab, salad and garlic bread..... and we stopped in for home made type fudge at the Boardwalk fudge shop....... (but don't tell anyone, ok?)

The Kemah Boardwalk is situated right on a Bay that leads into Galveston Bay, which flows into the Gulf of Mexico........ tonight was a gorgeous evening! We sat for a while near the water and just let the breeze ruffle our hair, talked, and watched the sailboats go by....... it was nice and relaxing........

I am thankful for the time I had tonight with my two favorite ladies in the whole world, my Mom and my sister!
