A Man's Ego...

Your Man's Ego

Did you know that if a man has a healthy Ego,

 it can and will help him become the

 Leader and protector of his home.

And a healthy ego will allow him to be your family's provider.

Many men, have damaged ego's because of there early

Childhood training,

Or a dominant Mother figure.

Or maybe what we might call a

(Mama's Boy)

Or a belittling Father.

A Mother did all the training, there was no man's influence.

Or from being spoiled and not taught how to work,

Or taught how to speak firmly, as a leader should.

So, what I wanted to say to all wives today is this;

STOP

Destroying your Man's Ego!

You must allow and help this very thing called

(A mans Ego)

To function and mature.

It is God who has given Men an Ego!

God created Men to have these ego's!

It is the world view to be alarmed over a

Young man's over inflated ego.

What really needs to happen is more understanding,

On how we as wives and mother's can

help in this area.

A healthy Ego is the very thing that will either

make him more masculine,

Or will destroy his manliness.

So wives if you want your husband to lead you,

You must first look at the ego.

What can a wife do to help his ego?

You must learn to let go of the always controlling everything!!

Do not ignore his advice...

Do not find fault with how he does things,

No matter if you think you could do a better job.

Tell him often:

 On how well he has handled or accomplished

something. We all need to know this very thing,

(that what we have done is good and right!)

Are you constantly finding fault with his efforts?

If you even utter these words...

You can't do anything RIGHT,

As soon as these words come out of your mouth,

or you have even thought them.

Repent to God,

Then apologize to him!

Look, it is like this, if you continue to nitpick

And find fault all the time, he will just quit trying

To lead you or his family!

More on this later;

Blessings,

Roxy

Sola Scriptura...

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...

 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!



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
