Why this blog?
I have begun this blog to reflect on what God is teaching me so that I might increase my delight in him in order that he might receive greater glory in me.
What will I write about?
Most often, I will be writing about what I am learning through my devotions and other christian reading. I'd also like to share words of wisdom and practical advice that I have received on how to be a godly wife and mother. I'll probably also throw in some of my favourite recipes and other household ideas along the way!
What is my hope?
It is my hope that as you follow along, something in here would stir you up to love Christ more as well. In this blog, as in all things, this is my prayer: 'More love to thee, O Christ, more love to thee.'

More Love to Thee
More love to Thee, O Christ, more love to Thee!
Hear Thou the prayer I make on bended knee.
This is my earnest plea: More love, O Christ, to Thee;
More love to Thee, more love to Thee!
Once earthly joy I craved, sought peace and rest;
Now Thee alone I seek, give what is best.
This all my prayer shall be: More love, O Christ to Thee;
More love to Thee, more love to Thee!
Let sorrow do its work, send grief or pain;
Sweet are Thy messengers, sweet their refrain,
When they can sing with me: More love, O Christ, to Thee;
More love to Thee, more love to Thee!
Then shall my latest breath whisper Thy praise;
This be the parting cry my heart shall raise;
This still my prayer shall be: More love, O Christ to Thee;
More love to Thee, more love to Thee!
