me on my wedding day…15+ years ago.  18 years old.  look at the look on busters face.  that says it all…

Witness Wednesday is how I am going to reach out and make my faith known.  Would you like to know where you will spend eternity??  Read on….

If you could have God’s promise that YOU would go right to HEAVEN when you die, would you take it??

Let me show YOU how YOU can have This Promise!!

ALL HAVE SINNED

ROMANS 3:10 As it is written, There is none righteous, no not one.

ROMANS 3:23 For all have sinned and come short of the Glory of God.

GOD’S PRICE ON SIN

ROMANS 6:23 A For the wages of sin is death.

THERE ARE TWO DEATHS

REVELATION 21:8  But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.

OUR WAY OUT

ROMANS 5:8-9 But God commendeth His love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.  Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him.

GOD’S PERSONAL PROMISE

ROMANS 10:13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.

Take God at his word and claim His promise for your salvation.  Bow you head right now and sincerely ask Jesus Christ to forgive your sins and to save your soul.  Saying a prayer does not save you!!  You must believe what the Bible says and mean it in your heart to be saved!!!

ROMANS 10:9-11  That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.  For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.  For the scripture sayeth, Whosoever believeth on Him shall not be ashamed.

Once you are eternally saved, you are always eternally saved…

HEBREWS 13:5B…for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.

If you have read this and accepted Christ as your personal Saviour, CONGRATULATIONS on getting that taken care of, you’ll be so glad you did!!   Please leave your name in a comment so that I can pray for you !!! And also find yourself a good, Bible (King James) preaching Church where you can grow in your faith!!

God Bless!!

If you don’t need this message, but know someone who does, feel free to link them to this or just tell them about the blog post!!  It is important that every person get this taken care BEFORE it is too late.  We often think we have all the time in the world, what’s the rush??  My son was killed in an auto-accident at 10 (He asked the Lord to be his  Saviour when he was 7)!!  We have no guarantee of how long we have on this earth, we need to spread the word!!

today has been rough! i have been crying on and off all day for no apparent reason and i am having problems with anxiety.  even though me working hasn’t worked out in the past,  because we have been struggling financially, i thought i might look into getting at least a part time job.  i was also thinking it might do me some good to get out for a few hours a  day or every other day.   i went to a job interview yesterday morning hopeful that i would have a job helping those with allergies and breathing problems, because when i called they were very tight lipped and didn’t want to tell  me much, but did tell me  they helped people with allergies, asthma and other breathing problems.

so i am thinking some sort of respiration therapy or something.  not even close, it was all a scam to get me in there and then drop the “R” Bomb on me!!!

they want me to sell RAINBOW VACUUMS  people.  i was a little ticked when i found out.  look at the ad above, does anything you see give you the assumption that you will be selling VACUUM CLEANERS????  NO!!! this ad is very misleading and deceiving!!!  from now on, if they can’t even be up-front and honest on the phone when i call on an ad, i don’t need to apply for that job!!  so, i continue to be self-employed and broke!!  poor me lol

i had a friend tell me it was kind of funny in a way….i don’t see the humor!!
hosts Wordful Wednesday!! 

Let’s join in on the fun with  BlessedWithGrace

AND, since I have my own recipe blog…let’s  show some linky love and link you over to it!!  Today’s recipe is Hearty Ham Soup!!!  It has been so cold here, it’s unreal.  Soups and stews are a great way to warm up when it’s cold outside, and baby, it’s cold outside!!!!

This weeks Tuesday’s Tribute  AND Talk About Tuesday go out to Buster (my husband).

To the my best friend, my lover, my protector, my provider, my Buster!!  You told me the first day you met me you  loved me.  I thought you were crazy!!  I didn’t know you could love someone after only knowing them a day!!  You saw something I didn’t and for that I will ever be thankful. You have been by my side through thick and thin.  In good times and in BAD!!

You have been a good friend, a great lover, a wonderful father and a tremendous husband!!  I could not ask for more in a husband than what you are.  Though you are not perfect, you are perfect for me.  I believe with all my heart that God made you for me and me for you!!  I am so thankful that we have each other to go through this life with.  You have been my strength when I had none.  My sunshine when it was dark and cloudy.  My joy when sorrow enveloped me.   My constant companion.  I am so thankful and proud to call you mine!!

Laura hosts Menu Monday for us every Monday.  This isn’t a new thing for me, I was making  my menu’s for a month in advance, but now I do it weekly.  Sometimes we get busy and I end up making, something else, so if you see something on here from last week, chances are I didn’t make it when I thought I would. OR I did, and my family wants it again!!

Monday~Sloppy Joes, salad, chips

Tuesday~Baked spaghetti, salad and rolls

Wednesday~Salmon patties, pasta w/veggies

Thursday~ Homemade chicken tenders and fries (still haven’t had a chance to make these) lol

Friday~Grilled Cheese and Tomato soup

I came across this “carnival” when I was visiting links on other blogs.

I have been wanting to get some things done around the house and what better motivation that being able to share my projects with all of you!!!

This week I am featuring one of my kitchen cupboards.  Pumpkin_seed used to take care of the dishes and it was always a crap-shoot as to whether or not you could actually open the door when she was done, usually out of fear that everything was going to come crashing out upon you.  So, now that we switched her chores, I take care of them.  I think I like this better!!

cups/glasses cupboard is next!!

My blue Monday item(s) for this week are my beautiful kitchen curtains.  Notice the blue edge, I love these!!  I bought these on Ebay and I adore them!! They are perfect and compliment the room so well!! I love Ebay! I have found so many wonderful things on  there!! Ebay is my friend!!

OK, this is the problem.  Buster and I have been having $$ problems lately.  Can’t seem to make our dollar stretch enough.  He has applied to several different places and so have I.  One problem with that is I don’t do well in a “work” environment.  I have never held a job outside my home for more than six months.

I simply can’t handle it.  I end up getting worn down and sick and it’s just not good.  I went to school in 1996 to be a Medical Assistant.  Graduated with honors and then found out I was pregnant with my daughter.  I went through such a depression after she was born, I never took my registration tests and therefore never used my education.  We had to get my school loans written off by the state because I could not work.

So I thought if we had our own business, I could work from home or at least in our own space.  Well,  then you have to worry about things like licenses and business insurance and all that jazz.  Not necessarily an easy task. Owning a business is hard work, but CAN be worth it.

So right now we are kind of in limbo, trying to figure out what we want to do…

Well, Buster only has a couple more things to do before we can put the house up for sale.  I think we are going to try to sell it ourselves first.  Then if that seems to take too long, we will get a realtor.  We already know one we like a lot, so it won’t be a problem if we decide to go that route!

We have already started packing some stuff away that we don’t use everyday.  We are thinking about getting moving pods to make the move easier.  That way if we sell the house before we find one we can afford, and need to rent something for a little while or stay with someone, we can just leave everything packed where it is instead of moving everything again!

I’m so excited, I can’t wait to move out of town.  I will miss this house, though, I really have been happy with it overall. We want to move out into the country so we have more room with the dogs and the quads.   Plus we’ll just have more privacy . AND the taxes should be more reasonable!!
