Being Crafty




I am so amazed at how God gives us all gifts and He does it so flawless. I am not perfect my all means, but I learn something new everyday and hear God tell me, "Now, I have made it a way for you to learn this and I expect you to use it to glorify me." How awesome is that? He not only shows us new things but He wants us to know just hold on to that knowledge.




It reminds me of the 3 people he gave the 3 talents to and how each of them went their on way and did different things with their talents. In the end, the one that did not do anything with his talents, lost out.




If we don't use the gifts that God has given us, not only will we not gain more knowlege on that gift, but we will lose site of it all together. God doesn't expect us to know everything but He does expect us to do. He tells us in His word; He will equip us if we just say Yes to the calling.




I want to share with you my new project. I have become completely hooked on making these. Purses - crocheted. Color coordinated and very handy. I hope you enjoy this and always remember to check out my site for other listings.








Until Next Time - Be Blessed~

A Long Time

Well it has been a long time since I last wrote. Kinda missed all of you. We have been so busy that I can't even think straight. Between work, sports, work, and more sports - gee ; where has the time gone.

You know what I love about all that activity? God has been there the whole time. He didn't let me go and do anything without Him. Isn't that great. I love it.

Well - my best friends son (Tyler) left for college yesterday. I do wish him all the luck. I know he will be great and become very successful. He's stubborn like that. My way or no way kinda guy. That is good in someways, and in others - well; let's just say "The world doesn't stop going on a dime". God has great plans for him and I know he will not let God down.

It has been a hot summer. Now here we are in August - the hottest month. I guess you kinda get used to the hotness. What's the difference in hot from 90 to 104? Hot is Hot~

I hope you have allowed yourself to grow and get closer to God since the last time I spent time with you. He is wonderful, and has promising furtures for us if we are just willing. I am trying to get my project planning in order for our upcoming WMU Luncheon. I want to talk about courage and how God can get us through our fears of the "I can'ts". With Him we CAN and when we allow Him to work through us we WILL.
Here is the verse I plan to work with:
I the Lord your God will hold your right hand, saying to you, "Fear not; I will you." Isaiah 41:13.

It is so exciting to know that with God all things are possible, even from the littliest thing to the biggest - nothing is too small or too great for Him. Man - that is exciting. To know that we have such an AWESOME God that is so WONDERFUL and GREAT and KNOWING and SMART and GIVING and FORGIVING, and on and on we can go. I personally don't want anyone else in control of me or my life.

I hope you are well and stay in the Word and Work of our Great Lord 'til we meet again.

God Bless~
