TABITHA'S HOME

   My daughter and I are studying   Beautiful Girlhood together. A lovely book filled with helps and truths to teach our developing young ladies. Mabel Hale the author shared her wise yet heart filled teachings during the turn of the century. Still, today as we read each chapter: wisdom is digested deep with our minds and hearts. Shelley Noonan has written a study guide, of which helps both my daughter and I to share our hearts even more. The lessons learned here will be passed from generation to generation.    The chapter we read today was Home Life . I decided for Tabitha's grammar (she is just 11 years old) that she can write a small paper on what is a home. Here is what she shared; short but oh so precious. TABITHA’S HOME  By TABITHA SNOWDEN   My home is more than a house. A house is where your stuff is, a home is wherever coziness comes alive. A home is anywhere your self comes out and feels at rest. A house is where parties and celebrations of life come alive.

BE STILL SOUL

Technically meaning: that what is formed by the mind. And I love the other part; “…is stayed upon Thee…” Simply defined as supported by God. The term 'stayed'  in building

LOVE IS OF GOD

   If you are like me, you melt at true love stories. I know I do; and my favorite on the romantic side is my own love story; meeting and falling in love with the man of my dreams. We met after after he came back from serving his country in Europe and I after I graduated college. We both heard about an inner city ministry to children and that is where our hearts collided. Before that, I had come to the conclusion I would never marry but serve my Lord totally devoting 100% of myself to God's Work. Then, I met Brad. Now, I serve Him with 200% of my life.    Friday is a day here in America when we like to celebrate 'Love'; mostly to the individual we are married to or shall I say 'romantically involved with'. Quite frankly though, I honestly believe this world has no idea where LOVE came from. As a Creationist, I do believe man was created in the image of God; that IN THE BEGINNING GOD CREATED...  Thus, I also believe God sent His Love to man for;  LOVE IS O
