Honoring Others


 
Showing Honor
 
I was just thinking how fast the holidays
are approaching, and to realize that another
year has gone by.
 
This is a picture of a surprise lunch
Birthday party given to me
last November.
 
I was turning 55 years young.
So that means in a matter of weeks I will be turning 56.
 
So what I have been thinking about
all this last year was the kindness,
and love, and I honor that was
shown to me!
 
It still brings tears to my eyes,
and a lump in my throat.
 
I believe in showing honor to those God,
has given us :
Family, and friends,
mentors, and Pastors.
 
We can show honor in so many different ways.
As you bless others, you yourself
will be blessed.
 
Maybe we can start now asking the Lord
for ways that we can show honor to others.
This holiday season could be a time to
really let others know what they have
meant to you.
 
Be devoted to one another in brotherly love.
Honor one another above yourselves.
Romans 12:10

Maintain the Difference

Every Knee Will Bow, Living From Glory To Glory Blog 

Every Knee Shall Bow 
I will make a difference
between My people
and your people
Exodus 8:23
The Lord has put a division;
see to it that you keep up
the division in spirit, aim,
Character, endeavors
and company.
Pharaoh had a people,
and the Lord has a people.
I always want to speak my heart,
As a woman  that desires to please the
Lord.
I must in keeping with a good conscience
say that anything done
on hallows eve, that looks like even an alternative
to trick or treat, makes me wonder
if this is being just like the world??
Blessings, Roxy

Pressure Canning Chicken...

Living From glory To Glory Blog

Fruits Of Our Labor
Here is a picture of some of the chicken we
Pressured canned.
It was so easy to do, it just takes a long time
to process.
The class we took at our extension office
was really profitable.
Also, to learn to not be intimidated by pressure canning:)
We are hoping to become well stocked with meats.
It is so convenient to just open a
Jar of chicken or beef and add to your,
Soups or stews.
I am so blessed to have learned the love
Of home keeping,
From my own Mother.
In all labor there is profit
Proverbs 14:23

Mondays


Monday
I have always found it to be wise to try and keep my Mondays
free from any added appt. and such.
Then it allows me time to get my home in order,
washing caught up. Some meals planned out,
and maybe something sweet for the week.
But, I also realize Mondays can be the very beginning
of many a women's busy work week.
And my thought is this:
You all are amazing!
What I have seen and heard from many women
is this:
There hearts our at HOME...
Just know this, that just because you have to work or want to work,
your still a keeper of the home.
Your loving touches and concerns for
each person, is what make a
House a HOME.
May you be blessed and just know that your family
will know where your heart is!
Blessings, Roxy

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
