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

 

Fiesta Fall And Anaheim Chili's...

Fresh picked Anaheim Chili's

Breakfast For My Man

Autumn time means: Green Chili's!!

We go to one of the many farms in our area and we purchase

around 2 to 4 bushels.

They roast them in a huge rolling roaster bin,

and the fragrance is so unique, it makes your mouth water.

We bring them home with a 10lb. Bag of fresh pinto beans.

Now we put them up by placing them in freezer bags,

Maybe 7 per bag.

  Then put about 5 bags together in another gallon size bag.

We put them in a box and place them in our big freezer. 

I like to put these in casseroles, and in my salsa.

I also make chili rellonos.

My hubby likes them in his omelets.

Now the pinto beans are the most delicious tasting beans ever,

You just rinse and soak them overnight,

Then you put in your crock pot and cover with water 2-3in.

Add a TB. Butter (no salt)

Cook most the day till tender,
 Then now add salt, cumin spice and garlic salt.

After you have had some with your dinner,

 Place extra beans in bags or tubs and freeze.

Learning to buy while in season or on sale and putting back will

save you time and money.

In the house of the wise are stores of choice food
and oil, but a foolish man devours all he has.
Proverbs21:20

A Mothers Heart

My daughter Ashley and Daughter in law Amy
My oldest grandchild Naomi



My precious grand daughters:
Naomi and Hannah



                       Today is a very special day!

                       It is my daughter's Birthday!

 

         I  just wanted to take some time and celebrate the amazing gifts God has given me,

 

My girls and my grand daughters.

 

I speak a blessing over each one of them that they will

be all God has placed in their hearts, and they will

be wise women, and will continue to build their houses.

 

Her children arise and call her blessed:Proverbs 31:28

 

I was thinking what words of wisdom could I speak into their lives?

Did I live my life as an example that they would want to follow?

 

If I had a single flower

for every time I think about you,

I could walk forever in my garden.

 

In raising my children, it seemed like the days lasted forever,

It was the years that went fast.

Blessings, Mother

We Are The Apple Of His Eye... His Provisions

Thank you for apple peelers

This fall, we really made the applesauce, it was a lot of work but the rewards

Are worth it all...

My daughter in law and I made 20 pints of applesauce, and 20 pints of apple butter.
 We were blessed with 4 bushels of apples.
 We had so many that we were able to give some away to our dear friends Pam and Steve.

 We really love the apple butter, it tastes so good on toast!

I believe making your own jams and jellies are so rewarding.

I want to really make canning and putting back a big part of our food pantry

~ Also it looks so nice to see it on your shelves~

I know it is tempting to want to put it where everyone can see it,

But it is much wiser to put in a pantry where it is cool and dark.

For the quality and longevity will last much longer,

 if you will be careful as to how you store it.

We also put some up with spices and flour for apple pies,

and put them in the freezer.

We have plum juice made up and in the freezer, and very soon we will

be making our whole families favorite Plum Jelly!

Be encouraged

Be wise

Be frugal

Be prepared!!

Our barns shall be filled with every kind of provision.

Psalms144:13a
