Kickin’ Back

And he said unto them, Come ye yourselves apart into a desert place, and rest a while
Mark 6:31

All too often we look at our calendars and there are no empty squares. We make plans and over book the majority of our days, making it nearly impossible to squeeze in the much needed rest.

Doing God’s work is very important. We need to recognize just as Jesus did, that to do God’s work effectively we need times of rest so that we may be renewed.

With our schedules it may not seem easy. But when you do make that commitment to just kick back, you are allowing God to refresh yourself for His upcoming plans and purpose for you.

For he that is entered into his rest, he also hath ceased from his own works, as God did from his. Hebrews 4:10

Father we have so many people and things that demand so much of our time, it’s as if we are playing a game of tug-of-war at times. Father help us recognize the plans on our calendars that do not glorify you. May we find time to just kick back and be renewed by your love. Father I thank you for always catching me when I fall. It is with you that I am truly at peace. Amen

I will both lay me down in peace, and sleep: for thou, LORD, only makest me dwell in safety. Psalm 4:8

DIY Family Sign

So I had an old ugly pallet on the side of my house…I saw some really nice signs on Pinterest but did not want to fork out as much as suggested. So my creative juices began to flood my head. So much that in the middle of the night I would wake up and have to write my ideas down so I wouldn’t forget them! Lol!! My husband and I pulled all the nails out of the pallet. I began sanding the pieces I thought would look nice after being stained. I utilized pieces that had old nail holes to give it that rustic worn look. After sanding I chose the stain that I had pictured in my head…I put only one coat of stain on as I was going for a not perfect or new piece of art. After this dried I used T shaped brackets to connect the three pieces of wood. I utilize free fonts all the time!! In my Power Point Program I create the type size and font styles, print them on card stock paper and then cut them out like a stencil. I then positioned everything where I wanted it and bega...

The Key to a Woman's Heart...

The key to a woman's heart is when He studies her; He hears her when she’s silent; He anticipates her needs and fulfills them joyfully; He embraces her with all his being, yet gives her free reign to be herself; He provides for her needs because it’s a priority in His life; He loves her because he knows, no other way; He accepts her flaws because that’s what keeps her unique; He gazes upon her and smiles because He knows He’s blessed by her presence…jus some morning thoughts.

WHAT DOES YOUR MASK SAY ABOUT YOU?

mask - concealing thing: something that conceals or disguises something else, for example, true motives or feelings Masks are things that we wear sometimes to hide from other people, and sometimes to hide from ourselves. Sometimes we wear so many masks that when we take one off, there is another one right behind it. Often times, we have so many different masks, that we don't really know who we are so we become that which we wear. We hide behind these masks…when asked a question from a friend or family member; do you answer with the real you? Or are you answering through the mask? Do you ask yourself, “how should I answer this question so that they don’t feel differently towards me?” Sadly we feel the need to impress others, so we are afraid to be ourselves in front of people. We short-change ourselves into thinking we need these masks to be accepted and loved. Is your mask still present when you approach God? God already knows us and he requests for us to be real with him. God ...
