French Press is a treat......

I already have a Bodum French Press coffee maker, and had an off brand French Press maker for tea. But....I was downsizing and sent the tea press off to Goodwill. =( , then regretted it. So not long ago while I was in the Goodwill, I spotted a coffee French Press maker by Ikea, and bingo! thought I'll get this one for loose tea. It came to the grand total of one dollar and 48 cents. It had no lid, which doesn't matter in the least, I just pop a food storage bag over the top to keep the dust out when its not being used.

I have something special to note. A friend, told me about an app called 'The KJV Memory Version; A tool for Treasuring God's word in your heart. It is by Ray Fowler, and changes a verse or chapter....giving you only the first letter of the individual words. So, you read over the verse a few times and then touch the number of the verse (verse # 7 for example) and it converts over to the first letter of each word in verse #7 and you have a go at reciting it by heart with the clue of the first letters only. I am working on Psalms 62 right now. I love God's word....and this really helps me memorize it.

Hubby and I are doing puzzles again on our cheerful yellow tabletop, while the wind blows and the snowflakes swirl down.

My Testimony

I was saved when I was 32 years old. We had evangelistic meetings the week of Mother's Day. When asked by the evangelist if I died tonight would I be sure I would go to heaven. I answered...'I hope so'. He answered, 'young lady, heaven is a 'know so' place'. He asked me to sit up front the next day in church, and the message was 'Hell will be filled with 'good' people'. The first one third of the message I sat in the pew and reviewed to God and myself what a 'good' person I really was. Not! The Holy Spirit of God brought conviction to my heart so vividly, that I clearly remember not needing to hear any more of the sermon. God's word had reached ME! I was a sinner on my way to Hell. I couldn't wait to go forward and pray, accepting Christ as my Saviour. I believed on him that day and received Him personally by repentance and prayer, confessing my need of salvation. Hell will be filled with good people all right, BUT good only in their own eyes. God alone is sinless and 'good'.

"ALL have sinned and come short of the glory of God". Romans 3:23 "For the wages of sin is death: but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord." Romans 6:23 "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 mad unto salvation.

Romans 10: 9 & 10 Verse 13 says this, 'for whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.' John 1:12 & 13 says, 'But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on His name, which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.'
