Get A Gift That Gives...

Now that Christmas has passed, how would you like to receive a gift just for you? Often we carefully choose and purchase gifts for the children, the family, friends and others and when the Christmas festivities are over, find ourselves spent out - financially, physically and emotionally.

Here are a couple of ideas of a special gift - just for you! But these gifts are not just extravagant gift to lavish on yourself, they can be used to bless and equip you to bless others.

Best Deal Magazines has magazine subscriptions as low as $4.69. Some popular magazines available for this price are:

  • Family Circle
  • Woman's Day
  • Family Fun
  • Taste of Home
  • Weight Watchers
  • Shape
and many others!

By treating yourself, you can also equip yourself with creative ideas for the home and family, expand your cooking skills and learn how to take better care of your body. They earlier had a coupon code you could enter at checkout for an additional 15% off: MPS16

Another beautiful gift for yourself is from Hearts at Home. They offer a prayer journal which I purchased for myself and love it! It is hardy spiral bound and is divided into five sections which enables you to focus prayers on your husband, children, self, church leaders/co workers and friends. Each section includes inspirational starters and ideas to pray more effectively and several blank pages for your personal requests or writings.

These are a couple of ideas to bless and enrich our lives to serve and love those around us!

Sometimes We Score, Sometimes We Block

Our family is in the midst of little league soccer season. My youngest son is playing and his enthusiasm is contagious. He is pretty good at the sport, but what makes it so great is that he loves it! He counts the days until the next game or practice. He loves his coach and teammates. He has moved up an age level this year and the players are working more like team, passing to each other and watching out for each other during play. During the last game, my son scored two goals, they were the only goals of the game. In today's game the team scored eight goals. My son came up afterwards to me and said, "I didn't score today, but I blocked". What a powerful truth those words can hold. In life, sometimes we score, sometimes we block. Sometimes we do great things, we excel, we achieve, we meet our goal - we score! There are also times we see the needs of others, sometimes they are sad or hurting, we block their hits. We look out for them so they can score. We...

Paths of Prayer

Today, I'm joining up with Five Minute Friday, a fun writing opportunity to connect and share a quick thought on this week's theme "Path". For many years, when coming across a Scripture about 'paths', it turned into a prayer and desire to be led down God's open paths. Through the years of life which included, marriage, keeping a home, job, raising children and as they began to explore their own paths, seeking God and His paths became a vital part of life and prayer.  As God's Word reveals God's goodness and His ways, I want to be walking - living a lifestyle on the paths that He leads.  Some of my favorite 'path' verses include: Proverbs 4:18 "But the path of the just is like the shining sun, That shines ever brighter unto the perfect day."   Psalm 25:4,  "Show me your ways, LORD, teach me your paths,"  Proverbs 3:5-6: "Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding; in all your way...

Construction, Challenges, Chaos

 Who knew something simple could erupt into something chaotic so quickly? A broken file cabinet forced us to purchase a new one. We found one online, ordered it and it arrived quickly with a do it yourself assembly book, complete with 24 part packages and 18 steps of instructions!  As we unpacked the items and compared with the instruction book, we realized a part was missing. Customer service was called, a replacement part was quickly received. Except, the screws did not fit into the holes on the replacement part. We tried again, received another part, same issue.  Meanwhile, the 24 packages of parts are spread out on my living room floor, customer service does not understand my issue, they asked for photos which were sent and now we are again, waiting for a part.  It seems every project faces the inevitable delay. My work place is undergoing a floor remodel. Upheaval, dust, packing, lots of inconvenience and depending on the work crew's schedule dictate the next fe...
