31 “Therefore do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ 32 For after all these things the Gentiles seek. For your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. 33 But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.

Matthew 6:31-33

And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.

2 Corinthians 12 :9

My Grandpa Russell, my moms, father.

He was born Aug. 25, 1909 and lived to be 94 yrs old .

On his birthday, my dear sweet Aunt Geraldine

another of his children, went to be with the Lord.

Aug. 25, 2009.

She will be so missed as is he and my mother.

Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.

1 Thessalonians 4: 7

A careless word may kindle strife,

A cruel word may wreck a life,

A bitter word may hate instil,

A brutal word may smite and kill.

A gracious word may light a day,

A kindly word may keep loneliness away,

A timely word may lessen stress,

A loving word may heal and bless.

(Author Unknown)

Let your speech be always with grace, seasoned with salt,

that ye may know how ye ought to answer every man.

Colossians 4:6

~One of my favorite things~ The wonderful smells of home ~

The smell of fresh baked pie .
The smell of the Thanksgiving Turkey in the oven.
The smells of the fresh cut Christmas tree.
The smell of lovely fresh cut flowers.
The smell of the wind blowing in an open window.
The smell of a summer afternoon rain. Oh, how I love those sweet smells of home !

Here is a homemade sweet smelling air freshener
if you don't have the time to bake that pie.
1 teaspoon vanilla ,1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg or a few cloves, pot of water
Let simmer gently for an hour or so for a fresh baking scent.

"From the fullness of his grace we have all received one blessing after another."John 1:16 (NIV)

Father, Thank you for the sweet smells of home. Every good thing in our lives comes from you. We thank you that we can rejoice in your bounty and in your goodness. Lord, even in the midst of trials in our lives, help us to never forget all that you have blessed us with. In Jesus’ Name,Amen.
