A New Font

Posted by Ginger~~Enchanting Cottage

I  have noticed that so many blogs had such pretty fonts, I thought to myself that would be nice to have. So I tried and tried to figure it out all by my big girl self. I had lots of problems and then BEHOLD I came across the cutest fonts on the block It was  easy it just took about 2 minutes out of my time. I just wanted to share this with you today . Although the font was small I changed it to 20px instead of 15. Let me know if you like this link as much as I did.

Hand Made Soap

Posted by Ginger~~Enchanting Cottage
































 I was so excited to receive some laundry soap  in the mail that I ordered from Carrie at Under The Willow It is such a beautiful fragrance I love it. You don't even need a fabric soften with her laundry soap that's how wonderful it is, it even made the laundry room smell wonderful. I also bought some home made hand soap, that's  just as beautiful as it is wonderful. I just love having hand made soaps in a pretty little bowl in our restroom. You can also go to her esty shop here Her blog has a lot of information so make sure you stop by and see what's new, it would make a wonderful Christmas gift also.

Spiritually Dehydrated

        Please click on the picture to visit more Spiritual Sunday's




Are there times in your everyday life that you feel like there's something wrong? When things don't go as smooth as normal, or you worry more than normal. When I open my Bible and have a devotional my days go smoother. I'm not so quick to judge, or be angry or even worry. Why is it that I choose to be SO BUSY that I don't find time to open my Bible everyday. I start to feel spiritually dehydrated after a few days. I have a strong prayer life, but I need to have a strong walk with God and that involves having time in his word along with my prayer life, they just go together.

John 7:37
On the last and greatest day of the Feast, Jesus stood and said in a loud voice, "If anyone is thirsty, let him come to me and drink.

Trust In The Lord

Posted by Ginger~~Enchanting Cottage



Isaiah 12:2




Surely God is my salvation;
I will trust and not be afraid.
The LORD, the LORD, is my strength and my song;
he has become my salvation."



We must continue to ask God for wisdom and
insight for strength to preserve. 
He will cause us to rise up and fly
like eagles, walking and not fainting.

White Wednesday

Posted by Ginger~~Enchanting Cottage

This is my first White Wednesday that I am participating in, since white is my favorite color I thought I would join in on the fun. On my side bar just click on White Wednesday and you can visit many more blogs that are doing this fun tribute on white.



First I want to say how much I love white shutters and I use to have them on this window before we did our kitchen renovation. The window size changed so for now I put up some white lace curtains. My favorite thing is when the wind blows the curtains, I think it is so beautiful and serene and then the wind blows my little wind chime that is right by the window. Well I have decided not to put shutters in this window because of the joy I get wind the wind blows



Here is a picture of a white pot that I love. It has chips on it and thats why I love it so much because of the imperfection of it.

Thats all for my first white Wednesday I hope you enjoyed it.
Blessings

Titus 2 Woman

Posted by Ginger~~Enchanting Cottage


In Titus 2 verse 5 it tells us that women need to be keepers of our home. As a christian wife who works outside the home I have a hard time finding the energy as I get older to be the kind of women that Paul is talking about here in Titus.Being a domestic wife is something that I have always enjoyed, our home was always clean and I cooked every night, and even found the energy to work in my garden. I pray that the older I get I find the energy to continue to be this kind of wife for my husband. As we get older we need to monitor our diets more than when we were younger, I feel that my husband deserves the kind of wife that makes sure he gets all of his food groups that he needs to stay healthy, I feel that he deserves to have a clean home without him having to clean it. My prayer is that I can keep myself healthy so I can be a better keeper of our home, so that I can glorify God as a christian woman, wife, mother, and grandmother.
If you need prayers as I do in this matter please let me know as I will pray for you. Please visit here for my Spiritual Sundays,I'm sure you will find something that touches your heart.
My prayers go out to Debbie and her family may God be with you.


I just wanted to add something. The reason why this is heavy on my heart is because my husband does more work around the house than I do. I have been blessed with a wonderful husband who enjoys helping me. I would just like to be able to handle more of it than he does.



God Bless,
Ginger
