Giving

Friday, April 24th, 2009

Lately the Lord has been working in my heart to find more ways to give.
Because I’m the only one making any income around here, often my mind swarms with ways to make money. Or I’m working on online listings or finding things to sell. It can get rather overwhelming.
If I’m not thinking about or working [...]

Works of God Weekend

Friday, February 20th, 2009

I was thinking that I should really go to bed! It’s far past my bed time, but I wanted to post this and share my blessings before I go to bed.
Here are a few of my blessings from the past week.
1. One of the men from church came over on Saturday to check out [...]

Answered Prayer

Tuesday, February 10th, 2009

This morning when we started school, James and I prayed. I asked God for something to sell on Etsy or Ebay.
I spent most of the day battling a nasty headache–a by product of my old neck injury. While I was trying to rid myself of the headache, a treasury I was in on Etsy was [...]

Gleaning the Harvest

Thursday, January 22nd, 2009

Last week, I updated you all on how I’m doing in this post.
I wrote that after an afternoon on the couch asking God to give me wisdom and show me what to do. I had a big lump of stress in my middle. I told the Lord that these burdens do not feel light and [...]

Prayer Requests, God’s Provision, London, & Mustard?!

Monday, January 5th, 2009

How’s that for a title (hee hee!)

When I was a teenager, my mother had me clean and organize the spice cupboard. I found an old tin of white mustard that we NEVER used.
(It didn’t quite look like this tin, but you get the idea.)
I had a pile of things to toss out but I wanted [...]

Works of God Weekend

Friday, January 2nd, 2009

Have you had any blessings since our last Works of God Weekend?
We’ve had quite a few!
*I found a new winter coat for James for less than $10.
My sister and her husband spoiled us ROTTEN while they were here. It was a huge blessing to have the adult help with the car, snow, house, energetic boy, [...]

A Vintage Christmas Treat~repost

Thursday, December 18th, 2008

I am in charge of our church library. Since it was very much in need of an update, I’ve been weeding out very old books and replacing them with the boxes of donated newer books.
One of the books had a familiar title so I quickly peeked through it. The Sword Book of Treasures by Dr. [...]

School Stuff

Wednesday, December 10th, 2008

Our school year has been going very well. We are going to have school this week and then we’re taking off 3 weeks for Christmas.
We did a lot of extra work over the last 2 weeks and we will this week too in order to have the freedom to take a longer break.
My family is [...]

Happy Thanksgiving

Thursday, November 27th, 2008

We have so many things to be thankful for and I’m sure you do too!
God is good even when life is hard and he has abundantly blessed us.
Today, we have to do the family juggle since we can’t all celebrate together.
I wouldn’t be honest if I said it doesn’t hurt, but I’m just concentrating on [...]

Blessings

Thursday, November 13th, 2008

A couple of weeks ago, I was talking with my mom. She asked if I had everything James needs for winter. I told her that I think we’re all set except for boots.
Later that week, I was cleaning and sorting things in the basement and I found a nice pair of Land’s End winter boots [...]
