Sola Scriptura...

Living from Glory to Glory Blog

Strong's
Is there a force so strong, nothing can oppose it?
Is there really a word that does not waiver?
Can I know if I am in the will of God?
Are women, really suppose to be the keeper's of the home?
Are my day's really numbered?
Is there a place of Blessing and comfort and peace,
that I can hide in?
Will how I act or speak change my situation?
Does prayer and faith in Christ, change me?
YES, is the answer to all of these questions!
The world has heard the lie and many have believed it!
I am just a person...
with no destiny or worth?
What I say or do, does not affect anyone else.
I am free to live any way I choose!
We are a body not the collective or individualism,
we are being lead to believe.
God has a unique and special plan for each of us!
I challenge you to allow God's Word
To train and to teach you the real truth!!
Let scripture stand alone;
Use this key to help dig deeper.
Be not led astray !!
Blessings,
Roxy

Shifting Shadows

 
 
 Good Morning
This is the day that the Lord has made;
I will rejoice and be glad in it!
 
Today is a new day, and I wanted to just speak a word
of encouragement to all you wonderful ladies!
We are in the last day of this month,
May we stop and give thanks to the
Holy One!
 
May, Mercy always Triumph,
In your lives and in your homes.
 
James reminds us;
Don't be deceived, my dear brothers.
Every good and perfect gift is from above,
Coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights,
Who does not change like shifting shadows.
James 1:16-17
 
 
Because judgement without mercy will be shown to anyone
Who has not been merciful.
Mercy triumphs over judgement!
James 1:13
 
May we be kind and tenderhearted to all!
God has forgiven us much!!
Speak the truth in Love...
Let your light shine before men.
For in the last days men will
Call evil good ,
and good evil!
 
Do not walk in the shadows,
I call these the gray areas...
 
Do not merely listen to the word and so deceive
YOURSELVES.
Do what it says.
James 1:22
 
Blessings,
Roxy

How To Make your Own Vanilla Extract...


You Are Going To Love This Vanilla Extract...

Homemade Vanilla Extract. Living From Glory to Glory Blog


 Making your own vanilla is so good!!
And much better tasting than store bought.
Also, the cost is much cheaper in the long run...
Here is how I make it;
First buy a bottle of dark rum
(Not spiced rum)
It's not like I am an expert in Rum :)
Use any bottle or jars you have;
Then poor the dark rum into the jars or bottles.
I prefer to use little jars, so then I have them ready
To give away as gifts!
So, maybe using the half pints is a better idea!


Now, you must have some fresh vanilla beans.
I purchase mine from Vitamin Cottage in the
Refrigeration section.
They come in about 3 to 4 beans per bag.


Now, take your vanilla beans and slice them with a slit down the middle,
Scrap each bean to loosen the vanilla paste in them.
I cut some beans in half, so I place a few small ones
in the little jars, and the longer ones in the
bigger jars or bottles.



See, how pretty they look!

Living From Glory To Glory Blog

I now take these jars and put them a cool dark place,
 allow them to steep for at least a month or longer!
(I do shake each jar a few times while curing)
Now you have a natural and delicious vanilla
With its own amazing
 Fragrance and taste.
There is NO comparing in store bought,
for your baking!
My friend adds it to her coffee and tea also!
If you start this now,
It will make a perfect Holiday and
 Christmas gift!
You can tie a pretty ribbon around it with a favorite
cookie recipe attached to it!
Or;
You can keep it all!
It will last forever on your shelves.
Blessings,
Roxy

May I Not Complain...



May, I not complain this day while preparing our meals!
I am so grateful for the women who have
Weathered many a storm!
They have stood and endured hard times in this country,
When we were not so prosperous.
Yet:
Many women still today,
are having tough times!
I feel, so blessed to have a very large kitchen,
with running water, and cupboards filled
with food and provisions!
We sometimes can forget that not too long ago,
This country of ours was in dire straights.
Depression...
May we give thanks now while we have plenty!
I always think of the story of Joseph...
He prepared and put back for seven years,
while there was plenty...

I want to encourage you women, to be wise homemakers!
  We have to learn to take advantage
of the sales of food items!

Also to buy vegetables and fruits in season,
so you can either freeze them or learn to can them.

This growing season is now over for most of us.
But, may we start where we can;
Purpose in your heart, and plan to put together
A pantry that will sustain your family,
for at least a month!

You must be wise, and buy on sale!
Date and rotate all items!
Buy only what you will eat!
Take a class and learn to can food items!
Always have plenty of drinking water put back!

I have learned this one thing;
No matter the crisis, my family still gets hungry :)
  
God, has put it in a Mommas heart to feed and
To take care of her family.
I do not want to complain or murmur,
But rather give thanks!
We are very rich indeed!
Blessings,
Roxy

Prayer For Being A Provebs 31 Wife

 
 

 These confessions will infuse His life
into your marriage!
 
Being confident that He Who began a good work in me
will continue until the of Jesus Christ, 
 I confess that;
 
I am capable, intelligent and virtuous woman,
far more precious than jewels.
 
I rise early and get spiritual food for my household.
I seek first God's kingdom and all good things
are added unto me.
 
I reverently and worshipfully fear the Lord.
I give of the fruit of my hands and my
works praise me.
I am industrious.
 
With my savings I plant fruitful vines.
 
Strength and dignity are my clothing and my position
is strong and secure.
I rejoice over the future knowing that my family
and I are in readiness for it.
 
I open my mouth with skillful and godly wisdom,
and in my tongue is the law of kindness,
giving counsel and instruction.
 
The bread of idleness (gossip, discontentment
and self-pity) I do not eat.
 
I am worthy of respect and serious, not a gossiper,
but temperate and self-controlled,
thoroughly trustworthy in all things.
 
I pursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love
patience and gentle heartedness, and the
joy of the Lord is my strength.
 
I am submissive and adapt myself to my own
husband as a service to the Lord.
He is head of me as Christ is head of the church.
 
I respect and reverence my husband.
I notice, regard, honor, prefer, love and
admire him exceedingly. The heart of my husband
trusts in me confidently and relies on
and believes in me safely.
 
I comfort and encourage and do him only good as
long as there is life in me.
 
I walk in love with my husband,
 esteeming and delighting in him.
 
My husband praises me above all women.
 
Blessings,
Roxy
 
When I pray this prayer;
I use my husbands name where it say's
husband.
Pray this prayer aloud!

Dust Settles

Dust settles on everything!
 
You can always count on finding that
 The dust has come as you were sleeping!
 
This is the time of the year it starts to get bad again.
I believe it is caused by our furnace running,
And the use of the wood stove burning.
 
And it is really noticeable on my bedroom dressers,
because of the direction the sun shines in  the Fall
and winter months.
 
So, this morning I said I can not stand to see this dust
this whole winter, all day long on these tables.
 
So, here is what I have done, I took the same thick
The material I used for my curtains, in our bedroom,
And I made a table top cloth that covers the whole top of
the night stand.
I only had a small amount of material left,
It was enough for the night stand.
 
Then I took  a cocoa colored sheer curtain panel,
And ironed it to the size to fit my long dresser top.
 
Now, both table tops are covered!
So, Now I do not have to feel irritated over
the dust that settles every night,
While I am trying to get my beauty rest.
LOL


 I found this curtain valance that I never could
use on any of my windows, so I folded it
where the vintage looking lace was on top,
And I sewed it in place.
So, now I have a double protection plan in place
 against the DUST!


 My night stand covered!
See it is the same material as my curtains.


 
 
 
TaDaaaaaaa!
 
Blessings,
Roxy

Her Mouth


 
 
She opens her mouth in skillful and godly Wisdom,
And on her tongue is the
Law of kindness!
 
(Giving counsel and instruction).
Proverbs 31:26
 
 
What is this Law of Kindness??
Is this a real law?
 
Yes, If you want to be a Proverbs 31 Woman.
 
Are we not warned in the Word to not be foolish!
 
What makes a woman look foolish?
It will mostly come from her mouth and the words she speaks.
 
 
What does skillful and godly Wisdom words,
sound like?
 
(Godly, wise, and kind).
 
 
Are we to be giving counsel and instruction in our sphere of
influence's?
 
Yes, we are dear ones!
 
We can grow in wisdom as we study and pray.
Seek wise counsel ourselves on subjects of our homes
To know how to manage them better.
 
You will never be an expert on everything and all matters.
But we can ask God for wisdom!
 
To many foolish things spoken;
 will be tearing down your own home.
 Gossip, slang and critical words, bring condemnation.
These ways of speaking would not be under the heading
of the Law of kindness.
 
We all have a wonderful resource of information,
that we can use, to be
 able to give wise counsel and instructions
as needed !
 
Study the book of PROVERBS!
You can use this for wise counsel, as it is
perfect and sound.
 
Reading Proverbs daily and applying it will
help make you skillful in wisdom.
 
But here is the KEY;
You must speak these truths in KINDNESS.
(Your tone, and your volume being used )
Belittling,
 Feelings of condemnation.
Self righteous are not showing kindness.
 
I am always working on this very thing;
As it is what will set me apart.
And to be used for His Kingdom.
 
 
 
Many times in the Proverbs it will start with
Open your mouth;
It is what comes out that is important!
So may I be slow to speak and quick to hear.
(Read James 1:19)
Blessings,
Roxy
