Marvellous Monday, March 1st

Anne spelled with an E is all decked in her green hat,
she must be Irish, ya think?  I just love all the Anne of Green Gables books, and movies, She is a good one to help us welcome in March, I have a couple gifts for you today,

Well we come today this is a new month, and new week, and new day, may we all be blessed from the hand of God, and thank him for his blessings on us. Do you know the Legend of the Shamrock?


St Patrick explained the Holy Trinity to the Irish many years ago using the Shamrock, I do not believe in luck as a Christian, but I do believe God uses different things to present the gospel, and the world even some times to make his point in our lives.

Have a wonderful March

Waiting on Spring

Well I am all ready for Spring, even though it was 26 degrees
this morning, I am in the South so not expecting it to be this cold.
When Spring comes we are getting chickens, my dh has been building
this portable chicken coop, needs more paint and the fencing then
we will be ready to get them.
I love fresh eggs, and I bake really often and use many eggs so it
will be super to have fresh eggs, corn fed chickens are gret, I did have
them once before, but something killed them all, that is why this time it
will all be fenced in.
Well hope your weekend is a fabulous one, we want finish the coop, 
then of course Sunday will be church, and we do not do much on Sunday.
So my dear friends, enjoy this biscuits I made just for you, and join me
again real soon.

♥ THANKFUL THURSDAY ♥

Well Praise God,  I just have so very much to be thankful for, where to start, well the fact that I am a child of the King of Kings and lord or lords is a pretty place to start, he is my all in all, he keeps a song on my lips and joy and peace in my heart, everything else is just added blessings from him.

I feel good today, I am rested, I am home and not in a hospital like some I know: I have a wonderful husband, that I have been married to almost 50 years, great grown children and I could go on and on, but I will not, this is not preaching time, it is praise time, let's give God the glory for all he has done, let us come together in one accord and praise him, He is worthy of our praise, so let's thank him and let everyone around us know, how much we love him.  It is all about him, may we be pushed way in the background, and may he shine forth like a beacon from a lighthouse. Have a wonderful day ladies, and share what you are thankful for.

Colossians 3:15 "And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to the which also ye are called in one body; and be ye thankful."

GIVE US THIS DAY OUR DAILY BREAD 

Matthew 6:11 "Give us this day our daily bread"

God is so good to us, he provides us with our daily needs, and then pours us out a blessing besides

pressed down over flowing, I always stand amazed how he works, and how he sends our blessing

through others, God bless those who follow his leading give unmeasured and with out wanting something in return.

I baked this bread yesterday, and it used the recipe Sandra had posted on her site, it is just perfect and tastes like what you would expect bread to taste like.

Today is (Tremendous Tuesday)  the sun is shining in my computer room window, and I do not need the light on even, ever so bright, going to a beautiful day in the neighborhood.

The rain yesterday washed away pollen and everything looks so clean and pretty today, even though many of our trees are still bare and looks more like sticks than trees, I an anxious for Spring to come when all the new leaves start budding, and the new growth comes, and it will be CHICKEN time too, heehee. Planting time also.
So do have a great day...Oh I had a blessing,  about 8:30 last night the phone rang and a couple we know wanted to know if we were gonna be home, of course we were so they come over, Praise God they had just butchered a cow, and brought us a  lot of meat,  I hardly had room for it, and little Jerry had brought some more sausage over Saturday so God has filled our freezer and we are set for a while for sure.. Praise God and thanking him for his merciful hand upon us. Yes he does give us daily our daily bread, and he adds to that bread meat, potatoes, veggies, and fruits, oh my what gracious father we serve, let us never take this for granted but to always give him the glory, for everything he does in our life.
Have wonderfully blessed tremendous tuesday my friends.

♥In his precious love, Barbara♥

 

MAGNIFICENT MONDAY

I am so happy, I have found my red napkins, and Saturday I found the perfect Rooster napkin rings, had to go to a special place in Jacksonville, Florida, but I did find them, then yestersday in Blackshear, GA I found the perfect red napkins I wanted to go with my Rooster table settings.
What a good weekend we had, such a busy one for sure, put about 500 miles on our car over the weekend, whewwwwwww, I be tired today. But a good tired. We had a wonderful time in Jacksonville, Saturday with our family, and a marvellous time yesterday in Blackshear with our church family, we stayed there for the day went to lunch and then such sweet fellowship, we did not get home til after 10 last night, so it was a very long day.

But now today, this is all we have, is today, yesterday is gone, all we have is memory, tomorrow may never come, so lets live today like it is our last, and love everyone we come in contact with, and give the gospel to every one we meet.
It is a magnificent day here in the South, about 53 already, it is suppose to rain, but we will see, hope your day is a good one, and let us all know what you are up to today.. Hugs my friends

SNAPPALICIOUS SATURDAY

WOW, that means this day is a very snappy day, lol love it.

We are going down to Big J today, for my youngest great grandson first birthday party, and going to stop by the Country store where I bought my Camoflauge sofa to see if they have any rooster napkin rings and napkings, I set this beautiful table and no nice napkin rings, and I do not like using paper napkins when having company, so I NEED them rings, I have priced them online and WOW I can buy the whole rooster for less than the rings cost, giggles, but they do not sit well on a dinner table.


So that is my plan for today, what is yours, are you going any where, or doing anything special today, God bless you my precious friends, and please pray for traveling mercy today as we go to Florida, and back.  Love Y'all and will see you later.

♥ THANKFUL THURSDAY IS TODAY ♥

Today is Thankful Thursday y'all,  So tell me what you are thankful for this wonderful day in February? I am forever grateful that God reached down and saved me. That was back in July of 1974, a very long time ago, and I have never been the same since, share your testimony with us here, let us know when you accepted Jesus Christ as your own personal Saviour, it is one thing you can never forget, I have let God down many a time, but he has never once let me down, or not been there when I needed him, Oh what a Saviour, he is my all in all, he give me unspeakable Joy, and mercy, and best of all the undeserved Grace from glory.
We had a wonderful evening at church, and the preacher really preached with boldness and such a great message, I was so happy to be there, and to get my cup filled again. God bless you on this day.

Warning



If you receive an email from the
Department of Health telling you not to eat
canned pork because of swine flu . . . . . . .


Ignore it.....


It's just spam.

SHOP USA

Interesting to put into perspective of how WE shop makes a difference to Americans and their lively hood.
One Light Bulb at a Time
A physics teacher in high school, once told the students that while one grasshopper on the railroad tracks wouldn't slow a train very much, a billion of them would. With that thought in mind, read the following, obviously written by a good American ...
Good idea .. . . one light bulb at a time . .. . .


Check this out . I can verify this because I was in Lowes the other day for some reason and just for the heck of it I was looking at the hose attachments . They were all made in China . The next day I was in Ace
Hardware and just for the heck of it I checked the hose attachments there. They were made in USA . Start looking ..
In our current economic situation, every little thing we buy or do affects someone else - even their job . So, after reading this email, I think this lady is on the right track .. Let's get behind her!
My grandson likes Hershey's candy . I noticed, though, that it is marked made in Mexico now. I do not buy it any more.
My favorite toothpaste Colgate is made in Mexico ... now I have switched to Crest. You have to read the labels on everything ...
This past weekend I was at Kroger. I needed 60 W light bulbs and Bounce dryer sheets . I was in the light bulb aisle, and right next to the GE brand I normally buy was an off-brand labeled, " Everyday Value . " I picked up both types of bulbs and compared the stats - they were the same except for the price ..
The GE bulbs were more money than the Everyday Value brand but the thing that surprised me the most was the fact that GE was made in MEXICO and the Everyday Value brand was made in - get ready for this - the USA in a company in Cleveland , Ohio .

So throw out the myth that you cannot find products you use every day that are made right here ..
So on to another aisle - Bounce Dryer Sheets . ... . yep, you guessed it,
Bounce cost more money and is made in Canada . The Everyday Value brand was less money and
MADE IN THE USA ! I did laundry yesterday and the dryer sheets performed just like the Bounce Free I have been using for years and at almost half the price!


My challenge to you is to start reading the labels when you shop for everyday things and see what you can find that is made in the USA - the job you save may be your own or your neighbors!


If you accept the challenge, pass this on to others in your address book so we can all start buying American, one light bulb at a time! Stop buying from overseas companies!


(We should have awakened a decade ago .. . ... . . . ) Let's get with the program . . . .. help our fellow Americans keep their jobs and create more jobs here in the U . S . A ..

This is especially for Valentine's Day, the greatest love anyone ever had comes from Jesus, He is love...
have a very blessed Sonday on this Valentine's day, be a blessing to those around you.

♥ IF THAT ISN'T LOVE ♥

He left the splendor of heaven
Knowing His destiny
Was the lonely hill of Golgotha
There to lay down His life for me

And if that isn't love
Then the ocean is dry
There's no stars in the sky
And the little sparrows can't fly


Yeah if that isn't love
Then heaven's a myth
There's no feeling like this
If that isn't love


Even in death He remembered
The thief hanging by His side
Then he spoke of love and compassion
And He took him to paradise


And if that isn't love
Then the ocean is dry
There's no stars in the sky
And the little sparrows can't fly

Yeah if that isn't love
Then heaven's a myth
There's no feeling like this
If that isn't love
