Beware Of The Dog...


Living from Glory to Glory Blog


Alpha Dog
There is one in every pack!
In the hen house we call it the pecking order!

Aggression in animal or human causes distress!
I have never enjoyed bringing a new dog on the scene
 when they are larger in size!

I find myself feeling like I am not safe or comfortable.
There is an instinct that just reacts!

Just for the record, I am not a Dog Whisper...

I have noticed that even people need to be handled with caution.
So many people in the public arena seem like they are just maxed out!
Life for many of them are feeling more burdens than
 God ever intended
for them to carry!

I am so grateful to have a safe haven where I can lay my burdens down!
I heard my pastor say that these are perilous days...

Yet, we cannot be afraid or allow ourselves to be captives
 in our homes or cities!
We must pray for protection and use wisdom,
And still be about Our Father's business.
We must walk in holiness and His righteousness.
Walk in integrity and sincerity

I have noticed if I just walk in humility and love, I can feel
The atmosphere change so people do not feel challenged!

I have the desire to see the aggression dismantled,
Are we to allow this alpha spirit or attitude to control or ruin,
Our homes and church assemblies?

I do not want to be the Alpha,
To be in control over others with either my words or body language.
For I shall walk in Christ's authority in
Love and meekness...


May we look to Christ and His Word to help us to be humble,
But wise...


Philippians 4:13
I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.

Gathering Rose Petals...


Living From Glory to Glory Blog


Gathering Rose Petals...

The Roses are still blooming, so it is a good time to
Gather the Rose Petals...



Living from Glory to Glory Blog


This winter you will be so glad to have some rose petals put back
 for making some gifts! Or just for your own pleasure!
They always look so pretty in a bowl or on a pretty plate.

Dear Sweet Ladies, I have a confession to make!
I am a homemaker who loves her home!
I do not desire to travel and see the world?
I can stay home all day with no inner urge to just get out of this place...
I can clean my kitchen and not get irritated that I will be,
messing it up very shortly with the next meal.
I have come to realize there is no such thing as the last load of laundry.
I am not embarrassed that I do not have a degree.
I use a spell checker!
I have gray hair and my hairdresser knows!
The Lord is my stronghold in times of trouble;
and my help for every minor thing also!
I am simple in most things,
Yet I can think up more rabbit trails, then most!
I want an older pastor to teach me...
I do not want to get to Big for my britches...
So in saying all this;
I will stop to smell the Roses, while they are still blooming;
and not wait until. 
 All I have left are the petals!

Thank you all for being my friends via
this blog...

How To Make Easy Lemonade...

Living from Glory to Glory Blog
Living from Glory to Glory Blog
Lemons and Limes
These always make me feel refreshed...




 How I make my refreshing lemonade.

My lemonade recipe is very easy and it is tasty!
Also This Is a Very Frugal way to prepare a refreshing beverage!

I use my 1/2 gallon pitcher
3/4 cup sugar
1/2 cup Real Lemon juice
Add water
Stir well
Chill it well then serve it over ice!
You can always add a slice of fresh lemon in the glass!
I have been making this lemonade this way for almost 30 years.
It is quite cheap and it tastes very fresh.
I only use the Real Lemon juice brand as it is stronger in flavor.
I buy it in the large 2 packs from Sam's club.

My kids are grown and now my grandchildren drink this lemonade.
I know people may squeal over the sugar in it, but it
is more of a real and natural alternative to pop and sweet drinks.
No dyes and no preservatives.
We drink this all year round not just in the summertime.
I also make up two 1/2 gallon pitchers at a time.
 And put one in the back fridge.

Lemon Lemonade is a sweet memory that we all enjoy!
Try it, I think you will find it very delicious.

Headwaters...


Living From Glory To Glory..

Peace like a river...

There are so many twists and turns;
Deep waters and calm waters;
Clear water and murky waters.
Fast and furious
But a River only flows in one direction...

Wild currents, and sedate pools.
Yet all part of the very same stream of water.

Every stream or river has a starting point...

The Lord spoke to me one time and He said the word to me;
Headwaters...

I have pondered and prayed about this word many times!

I find my peace in Him,
My Headwaters...

Always flowing fresh and powerful,
New and Living waters...

Why drink from a tiny wee cup when we have a fountain;
pure and never runs dry.

This world will pull you along sometimes so strong that the current,
Can and will take you under. But a good strong swimmer
takes precautions and stays out of the currents.
Keep a watch for false doctrine;
Always check the scripture and read above and below
in content of what is being taught!

Staying away from rough waters ahead is just plain old fashion wisdom!
Because we know that storms are coming;
In the natural and the spiritual!

Yet we are called to sit beside the still waters;
to refresh ourselves!

Come sit a while and listen to the water bubbling and flowing;
To a place where it is flowing into another body of water.
Flowing and Growing and gaining wisdom and strength.

Headwaters, The source from which something proceeds 
or is supplied.

Have you made the Lord Jesus Christ your headwaters?

He Loves Me He Loves Me Not...


Living from Glory To Glory Blog


Steadfast and Loyal...

A Faith that fizzles before the final;
Had a flaw from the first!
(This was a quote a pastor of ours use to say to us many years ago)

Who comes to mind when you think of the statement;
Steadfast and Loyal?

Is it your Husband?
Maybe a dear friend.
How about a sister or brother!
Maybe a Pastor!

Love now days seem so fickle;
Little things said or perceived cause you to pull back or away;
He said the wrong thing!
Did you notice the way she looked at me?
I just felt a funny feeling about them!

I think most love has an expiration date attached to it!
Time's UP

I seem to remember a verse that says something like this
Love is patient
Love is kind
Love thinks no wrong...

Ever feel like sitting down with a daisy flower
And start pulling off the petals and repeating
He loves me;
He loves me not...

We had better start shoring up our hearts folks
Things are changing!!

We are all looking for someone who will be steadfast and loyal.

Be that person yourself...

Do not being easily offended!
Stop trying to read every emotion as negative or it's just about you!
Quit thinking only of yourself!

I am learning and growing and I need to be ready to stand
And love when I might feel like He loves me NOT.

The enemy always wants to isolate you!
Be quiet and learn to love your own!
Do not look for love in the wrong places or people!

God is LOVE
To love others with no agendas or expectation!
I think of that scripture that warns us that the 
Love of most will grow cold...

Please Be a Husband, Lover...

 

Living from Glory to Glory Blog

How to be a Husband, Lover...

Well, it is pretty easy; The only requirement is dying to self!
And consider the cost;
Think not more highly of yourself than you ought!

Prefer Your Husband over everyone else...
Keep your vows on your door-post of your heart!
Renew your vows to him daily in word and need;
(I am not talking about repeating them, but rather living them)

Start each new day with a plan and conviction
Read the WORD
Doing something just for HIM
Dust his desk
Bake his favorite meal or dessert.
Plan a picnic at a park or in your backyard!
Write him a love note:
Tell him he is handsome
Kiss him and hold his hand often!
Ask his advice and use it...
Make sure he has clean clothes
Keep a few shirts and pants pressed
(How your Husband looks, reflects a good wife)
He may be standing at the city gates...


~Please smell wonderful for him
Wear your hair for him
Dress for him~


Watch your mouth!!
You can look sweet and talk like a truck driver
Tell him thank you often
Keep your words kind
(May the law of kindness be upon your lips)
If you are exhausted tell him and ask him to hold you!!

When he comes home, tell him you are so glad he is home.
Give him a few minutes to unwind after his day!
Never tell him over the phone while he is at work,
(How terrible your day is, or what has gone wrong)

Being a Husband, lover is a joy if you will invest and impart
Into him and his life; as there are returns here and in the
Heavens!!

Remember Jesus came to serve us!
Shall we not serve our Husbands, and love them?

Share some of the things that you might do that makes YOU
A Husband, lover!?...



The aged women...teach the young women to be sober, 
to love their husbands, to love their children, 
to be discreet, chaste, keepers at home, 
good, obedient to their own husbands, 
that the word of God be not blasphemed.
Titus 2:3-5

Make it and aim to teach others how to love their own Husbands!

This picture was taken at our renewing of our wedding vows last year!
