end of October

Here it is an end of another month, one closer to winter, ugh!!! I have been busy working, cleaning, shredding lots of paper, crafting over at Erika's. Here's a few things I have done!

Fun times

So, as most of you know by now that Wednesday is my day off and I usually go over to Erika's store and do a project. So, this Wednesday was no different!

So, here is my creation! I really love it! Paper mache' pumpkin and silk flowers, don't they look real!  

So next week I'm doing the sunflower wreath

 

This and That

 Mavis Butterfield over on www.onehundreddollarsamonth.com has a time when she has bits and bobs, this and that things she talks about that are weird or funny! So this a take off of her "bits and bobs".
 So, I am part of an group of ladies team with Young Living essential oils. I'm slow on the uptake, so I'm finally reading what they read last spring, Jon Acuff's book called "Start", it's pretty interesting and I'm glad I'm not pressured to get it read by a certain time. It has made me think about my life and the time I have left to change it! Not much, but worth a try! What would I do different?? Not my marriage or my kids, maybe more kids, but I love my kids. But as far as a job, I would love to have a coffee shop with books. Or I would love to rock newborns in the hospital, but where I live, they don't deliver babies here anymore, bummer!!

What would you do different?? Would you be married or single, have no kids, or a bunch of children?? Would you work or stay home??   Go back to school or write a book ?? These are questions I never asked myself, I just wanted to be married to Gordon and have a few babies. which I did, I volunteered at school and women's groups, painted, quilted, crafted and worked many jobs. My most fun job was being a wife and mom, creating and cooking meals, feeding people and reading books! So, how do I make a job out of that mix or what?? Help me!!!

So, Gordon and I ran, literally, to Duluth today. I got 20 minutes in TJ Maxx and saw this carry on

     How cute is this!!!! If I was traveling, I would snatch that up in a heart beat and make a statement! Blessings!!

Wrapping up Psalm 91

 I want to finish this Psalm short study on a high note. The last few verses are so wonderful!
 God's absolute power is proof for all believers! God is there through thick and thin, we can cling to Him through all things! Bad, ugly, great, sorrow, life and death! God is our Rock and Salvation!!
 Be sure to have no regrets and seek the fullness of salvation that Jesus has given us!! Amen!!!

Psalm 91

 Psalm 91 verses 11-12 , talks about that God will sent His heavenly messengers to guard you whenever you need to kept safe! They(the messengers) will hold you up in their hands so you won't crash! This is so true, as I found out today.
 Co workers can be so thoughtless and mean! If I wasn't a believer in Jesus and know the Word, I would have been mad, instead I was sad on the verge of tears. One co worker accused me of something that isn't true and I was so sad about it! Why would she say this awful thing! But as my daughter said , 'Mom, you know that's not true and you have Jesus!", so I started to pray and to speak the name of Jesus out loud."  It didn't happen instantly, but within minutes I felt the peace of Jesus and knew that God had turned my heart around from being sad to being grateful that I could pray for this person! I felt so relieved and blessed to know that Jesus was healing my heart, that He had protected me from bitterness and revengeful thoughts! I even gave that person a ride so she could catch her ride home! God is awesome! Blessings!

Psalm 91

Hello,
Today I want to talk to you about verses 9 and 10. These 2 verses are in kind a turning point in the Psalm.
 Verse 9 says that "you have made God the Eternal One your refuge", "the Most High your only home", I'm thinking this means that you have made your peace with God and will rest in Him! Your Heavenly home is what you are aiming for and this becomes your reality!
 Verse 10 says "nothing evil will harm you and plaques will turn away from you". Evil may surround you and try to over take you, but you belong to God, Jesus hasn't brought you this far to let harm come to you without making a way! His name alone is your armor!!Your main protection in those times! God is amazing and so faithful!! Put on the armor of God daily, maybe even moment by moment because the enemy is sly! We can be fooled sometimes! Be aware of what is going on and PRAY!!!Speak the name of Jesus out loud daily as you need protection! Blessings!

Psalm 91

Okay, now we are looking at verses 7 and 8 today, you its daytime study today, home early from work! So, verse 7 says and I am paraphrasing , you may see evil all around you, but nothing will befall you, evil will receive its reward when God deems it! Every time I would like to do a payback to someone, God reminds me that they will receive their payback in His time, I don't need to worry about plotting and planning revenge! So wrap yourself in God's unending love and forgiveness, That is enough for you! Blessings!
