“I have given skill to all the skillful, so that they may make all that I have commanded you. “ Exodus 31:6


“O Thou who art the all pervading glory of the world, we bless Thee for the power of beauty to gladden our hearts.
We praise Thee that even the least of us may feel a thrill of the creative joy when we give form and substance to our thoughts and, beholding our handiwork, find it good and fair. “.
Walter Rauschenbusch

"Come, and listen, all you who fear God; let me tell you what He has done for me.
I cried out to Him with my mouth; His praise was on my tongue.
If I had cherished sin in my heart, the LORD woud not have listened and heard my voice in prayer.
Praise be to God, Who has not rejected my prayer or withheld His love from me!" Psalm 66:16-20

I'm still here

Just had a couple of off days.

In fact, they were so off that I decided not to accept the nomination that Dee gave me for the 'Lemonade stand' award........thanks anyway, sweetheart, but my face has been dried up like it hit pure alum the last couple of days !

I'm seeing daylight again, but haven't ventured into the sewing room for a long enough period of time to let the fun begin. That's the therapy I need !

I did make myself pull out the 20 year quilt.......MONSTER........so that when I see it, I'll feel guilt-ridden into working on it. Now, seriously, is that going to bring the grin back or what............NOT........unless I were to accidentally FINISH it in the next 3 days, which AIN'T gonna happen.

But, there's Church tonight, and that always perks me up again........there's nothing like the fellowship of God's children.

Loving you all and wishing you a blessed night !

  1. Dolly, when I was a little girl, my sister tricked me into thinking a cube of alum was really a sugar cube...so, I know exactly what you're talking about.
    Honey...you are loved with an Everlasting Love that never ends...endless cycle of grace and mercy covered by the thickest layer of forgiveness, peace and beauty.
    When we stand before Him...we are a shadow of Him...He is solid and real and all this is seen from and by the One Who sits on the Throne.
    Child of the Most High, lift up your head for your Redemption draws nigh!
