The Land of Just Enough!

Tuesday, July 17th, 2007

Remember how the Lord your God led you through the wilderness for forty years, humbling you and testing you to prove your character, and to find out whether or not you would really obey his commands. Yes, he humbled you by letting you go hungry and then feeding you with manna, a food previously unknown [...]

Clean and Clutter Free, So I Can Be Me

Monday, July 16th, 2007

Hello again. Last months post was about the meeting between my 2nd son and I had hoped to continue the story of our visit this month, but alas, life has kept me busy this summer. I thought I would just take a few moments to share about what God is saying in my life’s journey. [...]

Fun Friday!… Women That Make Us Laugh

Friday, July 13th, 2007

Today I share some great women’s quotes. Some will make you think (a little) . Most will make you laugh. Have a great weekend! “Thirty-five is when you finally get your head together and your body starts falling apart.” Caryn Leschen “Every time I close the door on reality it comes in through the windows.” [...]

Helping Your Child to Read.

Thursday, July 12th, 2007

My daughter, Emily, is a month from starting Kindergarten. She is very bright, and loves for us to read to her. She has been to pre-school, and is very prepared for kindergarten. However, as I have several friends that are school teachers and their kids are already reading, I wanted to know what is the [...]

Organizing Arts and Crafts

Wednesday, July 11th, 2007

One of the most difficult things for me to organize has been the arts and crafts. You want certain things available to them that they can pull out anytime, but some things need to be monitored, such as paints and play dough. I created this cabinet to keep all their arts and crafts supplies in. [...]

Trial or Temptation?

Tuesday, July 10th, 2007

Don’t let anyone under pressure to give into evil say, “God is trying to trip me up.” God is impervious to evil, and puts evil in no one’s way. The temptation to give into evil comes from us and only us. We have no one to blame but the leering, seducing flare up of our [...]

But God…

Monday, July 9th, 2007

You’re not the only ones plunged in these hard times. It’s the same with Christians all over the world. So keep a firm grip on the faith. The suffering won’t last forever. It won’t be long before this generous God who has great plans for us in Christ – eternal and glorious plans they are! [...]

Keeping the Toys Under Control

Thursday, July 5th, 2007

 I don’t know about you, but I would say the hardest part of cleaning up has always been the toys! If I would get one room clean,  and return in a few moments, the kids would have dragged toys back into it again. My proud accomplishment over in a few moments. Recently when we visited [...]

HAPPY FOURTH OF JULY!

Wednesday, July 4th, 2007

I am going to be with my family today! I am going to worship God and remember why I have that Freedom. I am going to pray for the families who do not have their loved ones with them as I do, because they are making the sacrifices to provide us with the freedoms we [...]
