What a great Email

I got this Fwd Email and it what so good I just had to share:)














Awesome!!  We complain about the cross we bear but don't  realize it is preparing us for the dip in  the road that God can see and we  can't.

Whatever your cross, whatever your  pain,
there will always be sunshine, after  the rain....

Perhaps you may stumble,  perhaps even fall;
But God's always ready, to  answer your call.....

He knows every  heartache, sees every tear,
a word from His  lips, can calm every fear...

Your sorrows  may linger, throughout the night,
But  suddenly vanish, dawn's early  light...

The Savior is waiting, somewhere  above,
to give you His grace, and send you  His love....

God  promises a safe landing, not a calm passage. 

...and you question   God -'why me?'..
always look at the bigger picture......
 
A day without the Lord- Is a day wasted.

Bible Scripture Prints

I made a few new Bible Scripture Prints:)







Book Review:Family Life Marriage Bible

I had requested to review this to give to my mom because I am not married. I was sad when I got an email and said it wasn't coming and they had problems with shipping it. So I was very surprised to find it come in the mail one day. It's a nice little devotion bible for married couples. It gives little tips and ideas on things to do. It has different devotions and insights to a Godly Marriage. I thought it was very good for people married or raising their children. It includes the following in it

  • Devotions for Couples

  • Romance tips, quotes, and notes

  • Parenting Matters - articles on raising children God's way

  • Biblical Insights articles

  • Family Manifesto - FamilyLife's biblical model of a Godly family

  • 8-page Family Tree presentation section

  • Topical Index


  • I received this book free from booksneeze.com for my honest review

    Book Review:Take Action Bible

    I recently had the chance to review this. It wasn't what I thought it would be. I thought it would have more stories on different people then it did. It's a bible with stories about people who have took action and followed God in what he wanted them to do. It divides them into sections. The stories are really short and not much about the people. The parts of the take action part is colored pages. The rest of the book is the Bible. The bible part is great:) It always is,but I thought this was going to be a different kind of bible that I could really learn from,but besides the few stories in it and 2 or 3 pages of ideas you can do too take action(which had some great ideas to help you) and colored maps. I don't think I would have purchased myself. It's a nice book,but just not what I thought it was going to be. I thought there would be more too it.

    This Too Shall Pass

    ~Ecclesiastes 3:1"To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven"~

    ~After a long hard winter,spring awakes to beautiful glory all around. What was cold and dark has now become fresh and new. I love every Season because everyone is special in it's own way. Spring is special because it brings the hope of a bright sunny day of hope after a long cold and sometimes dark winter. New flowers blooming,time outside to enjoy the sun shinning down all made beautiful by the works of our Heavenly Father above. I love wild flowers that just bloom in your yard or along the road,they are the ones God planted and designed and put there. Look around spring is beautiful and the world is beautiful. Take time to enjoy the Spring. Just remember that through those long dark days

    "This Too Shall Pass"~

    ~If I can endure for this minute
    Whatever is happening to me,
    No matter how heavy my heart is
    Or how dark the moment may be-
    If I can remain calm and quiet~
     
     ~With all the world crashing about me,
    Secure in the knowledge God loves me
    When everyone else seems to doubt me-
    If I can but keep on believing~
     What I know in my heart to be true,
    That darkness will fade with the morning
    And that this will pass away, too-
    ~Then nothing in life can defeat me
    For as long as this knowledge remains
    I can suffer whatever is happening
    For I know God will break all of the chains~
     
    ~That are binding me tight in the darkness
    And trying to fill me with fear-
     
    ~ For there is no night without dawning
    And I know that my morning is near. ~

    ~Poem by Helen Steiner Rice~

    ~No matter how long the winter, spring is sure to follow~
    ~Proverb~

    Book Review:The Lightkeepers Ball by Colleen Coble

    I recently had the chance to review this book!! Not a bad read. Olivia is from money but since her Father's death her and her mother are pretty much out of money and are just living like they have money. If the daughter marries in the will it states they will get some inheritance,after finding out her daughter that went off to marry a man has died. Her mother wants Olivia to go out and marry a man she does not know so they can be set with money. Olivia finds a letter written from her sister asking for help a week before she died,so Olivia goes out there under another name to try and figure out if her sister was killed. I love books from the olden days era:) I won't say anymore about the book,don't want to ruin it for you. Good read

    Received free from booksneeze.com for my review
