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!

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.

We look out for them so they can score. We

Relationships and Redemption

In every friendship or relationship, there is a common hope that they will grow and flourish. There is something inside of us that longs for a 'happy every after' story. We dream about it and work to make that happen. But in reality, relationships are a challenge. The bridging of values, lifestyles, interests and sacrificing for another are simply hard things to do! No matter how much we dream of the perfect fit, some relationships will not endure the stress.  When differences appear and tensions arise, prayer can change situations, attitudes and ourselves. For the Christian, we know God can transform, change, heal. We cannot change others, but prayer opens us the door for God to step in and answer. God desires transformation, but does not demand it. The gift of free will allows us to choose to say Yes or No to Him.  Romans 12:18 says, “If possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all.” Take notice of the first two words: “If possible …” This implies that some
