Rainy Saturday

I don't know why, but I have always loved rainy Saturdays, especially if I don't have to go any where and I can stay in and relax.   I love to curl up on the couch with a cup of coffee or tea and just listen to the rain and the soft rolling thunder.  Add some soft music in the background, or a romantic comedy and this is a perfect day!  Hope you enjoy yours!

Happy Mother's Day!

A blessing and prayer tribute to all mothers

Blessed be all mothers
Who have come into our lives
Whose kindness, care and loving
Remain with us to guide.

Your inspiration in us
Made us strive in every way
Especially to remember
Helping others makes our day.

Mothers, this little tribute
Flows directly from my heart
You are so loved and cherished
Invaluable, one and all, you are.

by Susan Kramer

God's blessing to you on this Mother's Day of 2010 and may you have a wonderful and glorious day!

Today three birds came to visit me
A dove, a cardinal and a chickadee
Stopped by my back door, one, two, three
What a beautiful and glorious site to see
A gentle reminder to you and me
Of God's sweet love and mercy

Prayer for the Day from Bible.com

Prayer for the Day

Dear Father in Heaven, I am so grateful to be Your child and I thank you for your wonderful promises to me. Thank you for the encouraging Words found in the Bible.  I do want to walk in Your wisdom.  Open my understanding to Your Words and then give me the grace to obey them.  Help me to be able to cast all my cares upon you, when I am tempted to worry or fret over my problems. I do appreciate being able to lie down and have a restful night's sleep. Thank you also for soundness of mind and body.  Help me to share with others this day about Your goodness. I ask in Jesus' name. Amen.

A New Year with Morning Devotionals

Many years ago, my dear, sweet mother-in-law (God rest her beautiful soul) gave me a copy of Max Lucado's Grace For The Moment.  I don't think I read it all the way through until the second year that I had it, but I found that I loved the book and have read it over for several years.  So many mornings the page I was reading was very relevant to how I was feeling, or what was going on in my life.

While Christmas shopping I discovered that there is a Volume II and decided to buy it for myself.  It is so amazing, but these past three mornings, each page read has been right on mark with what I have been feeling and the worries I have been having for my family.  Yesterday I was feeling kind of lost and worrying about several things at once.  I sat down, opened my book and the reading was "The Lord is With Me" and referenced Psalm 23:4 You are with me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.   Then on the radio they played David Crowder Band's How He Loves Us and I was so over whelmed that I had to find the video to share with everyone (please check out the video link on my 1/02/10 post).

Since this blog was started to post about my jewelry, I'm hoping to have some pictures posted later today.  I just have to wait for my darling daughter to wake up and help me with the camera, as I haven't quit mastered the new (for me) digital age.  I've made several pieces lately that I'm pretty happy with and would like to share them.

By the way, my daughter is an amazing photographer and you should check out her blog http://fragilephoto.blogspot.com/ and Flickr site http://www.flickr.com/photos/fragile_photo/

Have a blessed day!
