Table Decorations

Mom noticed in the bulletin last Sunday that we were to make the decorations for our table at the Mother/ Daughter function. It has a Fiesta theme. Since I have so much fun doing crafty things I decided Mom and I would make our decorations. We made Tissue paper flowers and some Dancing lady name placards.
Here are the pictures of our creations I will take pictures at the function Saturday and show how it all looked on the table.

I Am a 'Kept' Woman

My Aunt Polly sent the following in an email I thought it worth printing on my blog.

I Am a 'Kept' Woman

You see, there were a few times when I thought I would lose my mind,

But GOD kept me sane.

(Isa. 26:3)

You will keep in perfect peace
him whose mind is steadfast,
because he trusts in you.

There were times when I thought I could go no longer,

But the LORD kept me moving.

(Gen 28:15)

I am with you and will watch over you wherever you go, and I will bring you back to this land. I will not leave you until I have done what I have promised you."

At times, I've wanted to lash out at those whom I felt had done me wrong,


But the LORD kept my mouth shut.
(Psa. 13)

1 How long, O LORD ? Will you forget me forever?
How long will you hide your face from me?
2 How long must I wrestle with my thoughts
and every day have sorrow in my heart?
How long will my enemy triumph over me?

3 Look on me and answer, O LORD my God.
Give light to my eyes, or I will sleep in death;

4 my enemy will say, "I have overcome him,"
and my foes will rejoice when I fall.

5 But I trust in your unfailing love;
my heart rejoices in your salvation.

6 I will sing to the LORD,
for he has been good to me.

Sometimes, I think the money just isn't enough,

But GOD has helped me to keep the lights on, the water on, the car paid, the house paid, etc..,

(Matt. 6:25-34)

"Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more important than food, and the body more important than clothes?

When I thought I would fall, HE kept me up.

When I thought I was weak, HE kept me strong!

(I Pet. 5:7),

7Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.

(Matt.11:28-30)

"Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. 29Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30For my yoke is easy and my burden is light."

I could go on and on and on, but I'm sure you hear me!

I'm blessed to be 'kept.'

Do you know a 'kept' woman?

If so pass it on to her to let her know she is 'Kept'

I'm 'Kept' by the Love and Grace of God the Father and through His Son Jesus the Christ!


God is AWESOME, share Him with someone you love !!!

I love planning things. I have had a fun week planning stuff for Terry's birthday. It is all ready now to just do the party, and I hope he will be blessed tomorrow and his friends and children honor him and show him how much they appreciate all he has done for them and all he means to them. Praying for tomorrow to be a blessing to my wonderful husband.

Rainy Night in Missouri!

I think it has been raining for ever here! I am cold and stiff and pretty much in arthritis pain all over my body. I should not be cold, the temp outside is 54, so it is not cold. But I am. I am in the process of making a gazillion kilts tonight and tomorrow. I have to quit now and go to bed and cover up and get warm. Jude, Nehemiah and Nicolae's are all finished. Caedmon's was re sized at Christmas, I will finish all of them tomorrow. I had earlier planned to finish them all and then go to bed, but alas, I shall do them tomorrow instead. I still have pressing on Isaac's, on Noah's and Isaiah's the waists, all of Asher and Levi's, and all of Micaiah's. I also need to see about Addie's (it should be good to go. And then of course there is our new little Caithness! Hers will be a snap!

VERSE:
Listen, I tell you a mystery: We will not all sleep, but we will
all be changed-- in a flash, in the twinkling of an eye, at the
last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, the dead will be raised
imperishable, and we will be changed. For the perishable must
clothe itself with the imperishable, and the mortal with
immortality.
-- 1 Corinthians 15:51-53
http://www.SearchGodsWord.org/desk/?query=1+Corinthians+15:51-53

THOUGHT:
I'm going to be changed! You're going to be changed! We're not
talking about a new wardrobe or haircut. We're not talking about a
new car or a new place to live. We are talking major, heavy-duty
overhaul! We're going to be made immortal. We're going to become
indestructible. We will no longer be perishable goods! We're bound
for glory.

PRAYER:
Inspire my faith, dear Lord, to trust your timing and to lean
upon your grace. I believe that you not only know all the
mysteries, but that you hold all triumphs in your hand. Please make
me victorious, O LORD Almighty, through the mighty work of your
Son. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.
