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!

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



Mug Exchange

 

 

Good Morning!

 

I just wanted to share how fun and wonderful it

Has been being a part of this tea cup and mug exchange.

 

I wanted to be a part of this linkup so I am posting

A picture of a lovely extra blessing I received yesterday

In the mail from a dear sister in the Lord.

 

Can you maybe guess who she might be?

 

But , I do want to tell you about the sweet

And the gracious woman who drew my name for

Our exchange:

Her name is Laura

She lives in Main

Her home is sweet and charming!

She has Chickens!

I love Chickens :)

 

I have not received her package yet;

BUT, it is coming...

 

The reason for the delay is a very serious and heartfelt

Situation as you see, her

 Dear brother Gary is very ill.

 

She needs prayers for Gary, but also for herself and her family!

 

May she not feel alone or not covered by His hand

in this time of trouble.

Fall Decor

Decorating For Fall

 

This is my first time for taking all my other treasures

off my mantel and doing a theme for the Fall season.

 

I really enjoyed myself , while shopping for the decor!

My favorite item was the wooden blocks,

that spelled out Harvest!

 

I changed out the candles from the cream yellow

To a rustic orange color.

And I added a bouquet of Fall flowers to my vase.



I have this neat old looking metal basket,

that I just had to use for something.

 

So, I added my Fall corn and mini pumpkins in it!

 

It has been enjoyable to see the festive Fall colors.

 

It just brings a cozy atmosphere to the room!

We Girls are all about cozy and comfortable...

 

Happy Fall To All!!

 

Blessings,

Roxy

Boo!

The Friendly Ghost!

 

This is a test!

 

Our there friendly GHOSTS?

 

Anyone, who really has their eyes open, can see the

spirit of death has swooped down upon this culture!

 

Is it okay to scare and put fear in one another?

 

How do you think the Spirit of God feels,

When we put before us things that are about

death, and monsters, and evil creatures!

What about making satan look cute?

Does this grieve the Holy Spirit?

YES, it does dear ones!

 

Do we open the door to the spirit of fear,

By interacting with these kinds of behavior's?

Many cool and popular clothing lines,

are plastered with skeletons!

Why are we glorifying the darkness?

Evil is real!

It is not cute or fun or pleasing to God!

We are looking more and more like this culture

of death!

Wanting to be scared and watching things that bring,

death and fear!

He told us to stay away from the appearance of EVIL...

Not promote it!

BEWARE:

 

A spirit of fear can come upon you or your children,

Just by subjecting them to these things,

 that say death and fear!

I am telling you this because, as a child this very thing

happened to me!

 

I ask you dear ones to protect their hearts and minds!

This is the time to teach them about discernment and

the difference between

Good and Evil!

We must only celebrate the death and burial and
Ressurection of Jesus Christ!

 

 

Blessings,

Roxy



Too Much

 

 

These last two weeks have been too much!

 

When do we as women finally learn to say enough?

 

There are so many things to do!

And most of these things can be really good things.

But having to be up and gone very early,

For too many days in a row becomes

 Very disruptive in being able to keep myself,

And my home in smooth running order!

 

 And being over extended is not wise!

 

Something always has to give!!

My time with the LORD??

No way...

 

Forget the laundry?

It doesn't go away it just piles up!

 

Forget making a good home cooked meal?

Pizza or Popcorn!

 

Dust Bunnies gone wild?

They are not family pets!

 

WAIT....

I am a Home  Maker!

Should I be at home??

 

Okay!

You get the picture!

 

Learn to use wisdom and say no to most outside things,

That will keep you away from home for long periods

of time!

 

I do not want to look like Alfalfa!

Eyes bugging out!

My hair standing straight up.

 

Blessings,

Roxy

Days Gone By

 

Fall In Love!

 

This is just the most amazing thing!

 

The changing of the season's...

 

I always feel a little sad when a season ends!

You finally just get use to something, and BANG...

It changes!

Like, I just got use to having my kids around,

And what do they do?

They grow up and leave home.

May I always remember!



Just what I learned from the last season :)

 

 

You all have heard the old saying:

Hind sight is 20/20

 

But, I believe we can call to remembrance,

All the good things!

 

Sending you all good and loving memories;

Of the days gone by.

 

Blessings,

Roxy
