Write The Word...

Writing The Scriptures

I love to write and to journal!

 I have been keeping a journal most of my life.

 There is just a very comforting and fulfilling peace that I get when I journal.

It is like I pour out and record all the things that I felt,

or accomplished through a given day.

I am amazed on how it allows me to release and to meditate,

on what God is showing me.

One day, maybe it will be words to comfort and challenge my

Children or grandchildren.

It is my life story;

But it is HIS life living in me!

When God shows you something in His word or in a life lesson,

it is wise to write it down.

I have always written the scriptures that spoke to me in any

given day, as I read and studied them.

When I found this tool called;

The 17:18 Series

I was very interested in it, so I checked it out!

It is so very amazing because it allows you to write out the

Word in a lovely keepsake journal.

I recommend it to anyone who loves to write out the Scriptures!

Be a scribe of the Word!

You can order these books called Journibles on Google

Special Message

Urgent !!

A special message just for you!

We are in need of a special word,

tailored and written to fit perfectly from His Written Word

Just for me

NOT

One Size fits all...

Wait and be still

quiet your beating heart,

Close your eyes,

bow your head.

Listen for He speaks within His Word!

For your ears only will hear His message,

for He knows your needs.

And  He is acquainted with your sorrows.

Be still and listen!

Blurred Lines Or Distinction

A Lady In The Making

 

Dear Ones,

   I would like to share with you a sweet word the Lord spoke to me awhile back. It was in the very early morning, when I was going out to do some morning chores. It was freezing out and I was fully bundled up in old work clothes.  A old work jacket, hat and gloves.  To say the least I looked rather rough and very manly in style.  As I walked across our land to feed the chickens and such, I heard Him say to me (daughter I want you to dress feminine.)

 

   Now, I know my Fathers voice and I know He was not talking about how I was dressed doing my chores. He was referring to dressing for Him each day! Not your normal daily garb!

So, it has been a sweet journey to ask Him each day to dress me. As I prayed and asked Him about this word, I realized that I wore pants almost everyday. Now there was no balance in my wardrobe at all.  For almost ten years I wore nothing but jumpers and skirts. And when I felt a release to wear pants again, I stopped wearing skirts and jumpers all together. See the extreme!

 

   As I prayed I had this picture in my head of men wearing dresses, Wow ,I had it!

Men have pierced ears and wear tight jeans etc. But you usually do not see them wearing a dress.

He has said I am a God of distinction! The lines have been blurred for a very long time.

When you cannot tell whether someone is a man or a woman then the lines have been blurred.

 

   Grace, He extends to us, and we all know it says God looks upon the heart, not the outer appearance.  But, should we all look the same?
 If your heart is not in a ready state, the outer matters not one whip.
 But, please inquire of the Lord if you please Him in your wardrobe!

   No, condemnation to any sister, as I have been in both places! 
 Yet, I can say He is wooing me to a closer and deeper walk.

 To dress with a distinction that I am a woman and will be a representative of

 His creation. And yes, I will still wear pants when it's appropriate and timely.

 

   This world is becoming darker and cold, may we dear women be the soft and sweet in vision.

For God desired and created women to buffet the cold and changing landscape.

 

   Even this picture of this sweet little girl knew she was to be a little lady!

The Domestic Diva...

The Domestic Diva

Whip It, Whip It Good!

All I need is to whip me up an apron,

 Just like the one this diva is wearing.

No, I am not Betty Homemaker...

But I am the keeper of this HOME!

May we not grow weary in doing good.

Some days and seasons may

bring difficult challenges.

But we must draw strength from our Father!

Learn to take pleasure in your daily chores,

and allow yourself the grace to

Take a day off when you're really over burdened.

Sometimes, you just have to keep it simple.

Pamper yourself a wee bit,

Learn ways to refresh yourself.

Do things that bring you life!

Remember YOUR the lady of the house.

Don't be mistaken for the maid.

 Take time to keep yourself looking like a lady

And not the chambermaid.

Blessings To All, Roxy



Golden Farm Fresh Eggs...

Here are a few of my girls

Our Chicken Scratch mixed with corn

Fresh eggs daily

Meet Mr. Rooster

I have been really delighted to be able to have chickens for over
Fifteen years.
 I find it most pleasant to go each day and bring in the bounty
of fresh eggs.

When you have fresh eggs everyday you can  make many wonderful
and  very delicious meals.
We love omelets so we have them often,
I serve them with fresh salsa and cheese.

There are so many delicious
 Variations to add to them, so we never grow tired of them!

The other day I made a custard with the fresh eggs and it was
really yummy!

I also make a lot of quiche, as it is light and very tasty.
I will usually make a cracker crust, so no pie crust to make.

And the eggs for baking, make your recipes very nutritious, and moist.
The yolks are a golden color and very large.
Store bought eggs are very pale in color and have
very little flavor.

Another really good point for me is not having to throw out
Any scraps or leftovers. As the chickens love the treats.
I believe I have the fattest and happiest chickens around!


We are learning each day to be wise and to put back,
Be a (wise woman) and stock your pantry well!

Blessings, Roxy

Cozy And True

A painting made for me!

An amazing dessert!

Tea  Settings to behold!

Can you count your friends as true?

I believe our heavenly Father will ask us one day,
"How did you treat one another?"

I can say from my heart;
it is better to invest now in those who God has
given you!

One day your wee little ones will grow and leave home,
and you will say where did the time go?

A good and dear friend,
as many as your heart can be true too!

I want to honor YOU dear friend:
For you have been true!

A true friend sticks closer then a brother.

Blessings, Roxy

Happy

Happy Days

 

My, things sure have changed around these parts,

or any parts for that matter.

Death and destruction on every front.

BUT

 

We will still see the goodness and sweetness of life:

WHY

Because we look for it!

 

We will look to the things that are good.

 

Whatsoever things are lovely,

And of good report!

 

 

With a heart to please Him, and using the talents and gifts we have been given.

We can make our homes and our communities

more lovely and pleasant. 

 

You dear one can change the atmosphere, with just a kind word,

or  by being a helping hand to someone in need.

 

May we be about our Father's business.

 

Stop and take pleasure in this day,

for it is a gift;

 

Use it wisely!

 

Blessings To All, Roxy

Award Free Blog

 

"Why I Blog"

 

I really laughed over this silly picture.  I actually found it on someones blog.

To be a blogger or not is the question.

  We must have this deep sense and longing of being a  part of a bigger picture.

It always seems to be a pulling and a fulfilling feeling, as you push the publish

button.  We really all do have a story.  I like to read the tidbits of a life that is being

lived far away or maybe very close to ones heart.

 

We are a rare and beautiful breed.

We love ,we write, we cry, we sing, we dance,we create,

we live and we die.

This life is but a vapor.

 

May I leave a legacy, not with just written words, but memories,

filled with hope and kindness.

 

I long to be noticed, yet shy away from to much attention.

I desire to laugh long and hard, but not to hurt any ones feelings.

I long to be a gourmet cook, but a grilled cheese is my dinner plan.

I desire to be the perfect wife, yet I was short with him on the phone.

I long to write a book, yet I journal every morning of my private thoughts.

 

May my days be filled with words of highest praise,

to the one, I long to hear Him say:

Well done good and faithful servant!

 

Blessings To You All, Roxy



 

 



A Time To Fight...

Stand Your Ground

I really do just want to be a sweet and gentle lady.

But let's face it ladies sometimes you just have to fight.

There are some things that if we do not fight for them

They will disappear!

We must be on our guard!

I believe that this world has been fighting us, we are told

that the God of this world, has come to make us

 feel discouragement and discontentment.

Or

He keeps us so busy that,

we do not even have time to do the most important things.

And the days are just flying by so fast.

  and we say where did this day go?

Stand your ground dear ones!

Do not allow the enemy to take what does not belong to him!

For all that we have and own,

belongs to God.

We are only the stewards.

 So, learn what the Word says about His peace,

 For it is His promise to you.

Take back what the enemy has stolen...

Fight the Good Fight!

What is worth fighting for?

Your marriage

Your children

Your health

Your peace

Your Bible Study time

Your finances

Your friends

Remember Jesus never gave  GROUND to the devil!

In Ephesians 4:27

Leave no (such) room or foothold for the devil-

give no opportunity to him.

"Fight till God rings the bell..."

Blessings, Roxy



The Kiss...

Keeping Our Hearts Tender

My, how wonderful it is to be able to greet our husbands

when they come home with a kiss.

I always, even tell him I am so glad your home honey.

It is not enough to only do this once in awhile.

we must always take their arrival home,

as a special thing.

There are some men that do not even want to come home.

Our part is to always make it a comfort zone,

not a battle zone!

When the Lord has asked us to be

 Keepers Of The Home...

He does ask us to establish certain things.

The atmosphere of the home is set and established,

by the woman.

Let Love rule and peace reign...

Sometimes it just means to wait and choose

A better time to discuss a matter that,

may be pressing.

I encourage you to keep your home with diligence;

For the thief comes only to steal, kill and destroy.

The home is where the enemy always is

trying to bring confusion and strife.

Keep your hearts tender, always remember

"The Kiss"

Blessings, Roxy



Intimate Relationship...

Intimacy and Romance

We were created for relationships.

We were made in His image.

"Female"

We were the very last thing God created.

He had created every amazing thing on this planet earth,

And yet something was missing!

The man made after God's image had everything...

Yet, he was alone.

The man had seen and named every exquisite animal,

and had experienced a new dawn of sunrise

and sunset.

Yet, it was God who saw his loneliness.

He Said;

For it is not good for man to be alone!

So God took the very rib of His image, and

fashioned the most feminine and lovely

creature upon the earth.

"Woman"

She was the grand final'e !

She was the one who would help Adam (Her Man)

She brought the heart of Her Creator.

Which is:

INTIMATE RELATIONSHIP

Just as a woman longs to be desired, and to be intimate

so does God!

Dear women of Christ take your rightful place.

Be to your husbands what God created you to be.

"sustainer beside him"

We were created to do this together!

Romance, beauty; relationships, adventure.

Prairies, and meadows and flowers.

Stars and music,

a kiss.

'I have loved you with an everlasting love'

Jer. 31:3

We were made for relationship!

Blessings, Roxy



Friends Forever

Times Of Refreshment

A woman must have friends,

good friends.

Those chosen by God, just for her!

Those friends my dear ones; are a precious gifts!

We must treasure those who have come alongside of us,

in this journey called life.

Never take those little chats, or long conversations for granted.

For these are His little treats just for you.

Be thankful for those dear sisters that encourage you when,

your heart is heavy and your feet feel like lead.

When their words were aptly spoken,

in His love and Wisdom.

A friend who stood by your side as the river roared,

or when it was so hot and dry 
 that only a wee trickle flowed.

A fair weather friend who can find?

Alas my dear ones they can't be found they must be given

from the only true giver of life.

(May we invest in those God has given us.)

Invite a dear one to tea,

 for we have much work to do, before the night has come.

Encourage our dear friends in the Lord,

to love their husbands,

and to love their children.

Come, my friend and join me for a cup of tea.

Blessings, Roxy
