Simple Pleasures

I am joining in on Simple Pleasures today, every Thursday this nice lady takes the time to do this meme. It is one that I love but not always able to join in. So please click HERE and join in on the fun.

I just love the simple pleasure that I get when I am in my home.One of my favorite things that I love about our home and brings me simple pleasures is that I can look out any window in any room of our home and see nothing but green. We planted shrubs all around our property years ago and we know enjoy our hard work. It puts a smile on my face every time I look out one of my windows. We enjoy it so much that we decided not to put up window coverings.
This is truly a simple pleasure for me.

Matthew
16 “When you fast, do not look somber as the hypocrites do, for they disfigure their faces to show others they are fasting. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full. 17 But when you fast, put oil on your head and wash your face, 18 so that it will not be obvious to others that you are fasting, but only to your Father, who is unseen; and your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.

I have a poll on the top of my blog, I would like to know how many people have fasted. I have turned my comments off just for today so that people don't feel obligated to say on way or other on their comments. If you need to contact me for prayers or any other reason please email me. My comments will be up again next week. loveourcottage@sbcglobal.net

I missed everyone last weekend, we had company for the weekend. Thank-you for understanding. Thank-you for your prayers for my mother in-law also.

Please stop by Spiritual Sunday and share your love for the Lord and to read other peoples beautiful post.

Growing Old
October 22,2010

One of my prayers is that my husband and I can grow old in our home together. That we can take care of each other and not have to depend on other people. I pray that we will be healthy, strong in strength and Strong in the Lord as we grow old.

Psalm 20:4
4 May he give you the desire of your heart and make all your plans succeed.

A Path of Life

Thus God's bright sunshine overhead,

God's flowers beside your feet,

The path of life that you must tread

Can little hold of fear or dread,

And by such pleasant' pathways led,

May all your life be sweet.

Life Style's

Over the last year or so I have been trying not to shop as much. I have been trying to just buy the needs of our home not the wants. This is not easy for me and it is something that I have to pray about all the time. As I sit and drink my coffee and ponder over the last year and how the Lord has worked in my life is amazing. I can't remember the last time I went shopping, I can't even remember the last time I had the desire to go shopping. It has taken me a long time to realize that there is a bigger picture. In my heart I don't feel that it's right to pray about finances and ask to be guided in that area and then go and spend fifty dollars a month on getting my nails done, I needed my action to be towards my daily prayers and the Lord has blessed me by doing so. The other day my husband broke our lamp(by mistake)and I thought to myself OH~~~~I get to go buy a new lamp because this one broke, needless to say I was kinda excited about shopping for a lamp because after all it was a need. Well the Lord reminded me of my prayers and after a week of looking at the lamp I went to the drawer and got out the super glue and long and behold our lamp is as good as new.

Dear Lord, I want to thank you with all of my heart for guiding me in this new life style, I love it. I pray that maybe someone else will have this same prayer Lord and that you can guide them Lord in making changes in their life,it just takes small changes and then it becomes so big Lord. Lord I want to thank-you for our new roof that we put on our home, if my life style had not change we would not of be able to get our new roof.

Thank-you with all my heart

Amen

A Rainbow

Posted by Ginger~~Enchanting Cottage

Picture by Kansas Poetry(Patrick)from Flicker

On Thursday there was the most amazing double rainbow in the sky. It was probable one of the top 5 most beautiful things that I have seen. On one side of the sky where the rainbow was it had this amazing glow it was so strong even the inside of our home had a glow to it ,and on the other side of the sky it was so blue it looked like a blue marker had just colored half the sky. It was hot and then it started to rain. Then on Friday, the Lord shared another beautiful rainbow with us.

Genesis 9:13-16

12 And God said, "This is the sign of the covenant I am making between me and you and every living creature with you, a covenant for all generations to come: 13 I have set my rainbow in the clouds, and it will be the sign of the covenant between me and the earth. 14 Whenever I bring clouds over the earth and the rainbow appears in the clouds, 15 I will remember my covenant between me and you and all living creatures of every kind. Never again will the waters become a flood to destroy all life. 16 Whenever the rainbow appears in the clouds, I will see it and remember the everlasting covenant between God and all living creatures of every kind on the earth."

A Book To Read
September 25,2010

I read Sarah's book In The Eye of Deception . This book touched my heart. After reading this book I think differently about the people I see on the streets, or anywhere for that matter. I think about their story, is their story like Sarah's. Working in the public it is hard sometimes not to judge,I have been guilty of this in the past. We don't know their situations, we don't know what they have been through or what they are going through now. Sarah was blessed because the Lord was there for her when she just could not go anymore. Other people may not be as blessed as Sarah, they just may be getting deeper and deeper into a dark world.
They need our prayers to lift them up to the Lord. God bless you Sarah and may the Lord continue to be with you. You can click on the picture to read more about Sarah's book.

Matthew 7
1"Do not judge, or you too will be judged. 2For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.
