Everyone Says Glory...

The voice of the Lord...

Strips the forest bare;

And in His temple everyone says,

"Glory!"

Psalms29:9

A fresh glimpse of His Glory!

Be still and know

He is God.

I awoke to our first dusting of snow this morning.

It is time to be ready for shorter days,

And longer nights.

A cozy fire burning, and a longer time to spend

With the Lord and study.

I also got to check out all my favorite blogs,

and leave a comment on most of them.

I have found a sweet kinship with these

gals, seeing a part of their lives and homes.

How it must please the Father,

that we desire to be the home-keepers

 He spoke about in His Word!

I am thankful for each woman who has

inspired and encouraged me!

Thank-You

Blessings, Roxy

The Great Pumpkin

Harvest Pumpkins

 

I just love pumpkins!

And I  relish Autumn's harvest

 

When you see the amazing array of God's colors,

you can know, He loves beauty.

 

Who doesn't love a pumpkin sitting proudly on a table.

adorned with autumns leaves and pine cones.

I think decorating with the bounties that come from nature

are the sweetest.

 

Pumpkins are so good for you,

filled with rich (Beta Carotene)

 

One of my most favorite things made with pumpkin

puree is Pumpkin Bread!

 

Pumpkin soup is amazing, light and so delicious.

But let us not forget the pumpkin pie,

my hubbies very favorite.

I also make fresh whipped cream just for him!

 

Also, don't forget to roast your pumpkin seeds!

 

Next year let's all grow a larger pumpkin patch:)

 

Taste and see that the Lord is good;

blessed is the man who takes refuge in him.

Psalms 34:8

Midlife Make-Over

A Cup Of Tea

 

I have now entered into the midlife kitchen make-over...

(Twilight music playing)

 

Now during this make-over no one has offered us a mini vacation,

while a whole crew comes in to do everything!

 

No,  just ourselves and our son and daughter in law,

also our oldest grandson.

 

We have the ceiling painted flat white,

 and most the walls done in bright yellow.

Sanding and painting my cupboards, a very pretty color

 called Chinking. But my island is done in a fresh

green color called Laurel.

All the side of the cabinets are done in a wains coat.

The top rail is in a satin Red color.

The style is really a French Country look.

 

This is a huge project,

 but it will be warm ,and have a cozy feeling when done!!

 

Ok, the moral of this story is this:

When in the thick of things on the first day of

this make-over. I was so exhausted and overwhelmed...

My sweet Amy brought me a cup of hot steaming

delicious Earl Gray tea, with cream and sugar.

It just about brought tears to my eyes.

I needed to be refreshed.

 

Let me encourage all of us,

We are our brothers keepers!

A cup of tea and and a encouraging word goes a long way.

 

We are blessed to have a son who can do all the precise cutting

and fixing almost everything:)

Blessings, Roxy



Needing Fellowship

Sharing

 

Life would be lonely,

If only you had no one to share it with.

 

Needing fellowship,

as much as I need air.

 

Christ is the head,

We are His body.

 

We come together,

He is in our midst.

 

Take time to love and share.

Show that you care,by actions and words.

Moments of understanding

are worth a thousand words.

 

Precious indeed,

is the understanding

of a friend.

 

Friends: a blessing to cherish for life.

 

Blessings, Roxy

 

 

Beauty in Our Homes

Autumn Flowers

 

Beauty comes from the Lord

He makes ALL things beautiful

 

Scripture tells us He makes all things new!

 

I have been praying for creative wisdom,

there are so many amazing and

beautiful things, just waiting

to be created.

 

We as woman have been given a nesting instinct.

We want to surround ourselves with beauty.

 

It can be simple and cozy,

or crisp and sleek.

But it must...

Have warmth, and be welcoming!!

 

Let authentic kindness be its main focus.

Let charity grace its rooms

Let beauty fill its halls.

 

Beauty and charm ,

comes  from a heart filled with HIM!

 

Blessings, Roxy

 

Room for More

 The Rolling Prairie

 

This is our backyard!

Have you ever driven through a place where

you did not see a person for miles?

 

It is really hard to believe we abort babies!

There is more then enough room.

 

 

What happened to Momma's?

Where have all the children gone?

 

We need our babies and our children!

 

Life and Liberty for ALL

 

Blessings, Roxy
