Happy Saturday & Sunday everyone! While the rain falls softly, our part of the world is turning the most beautiful green. I'm cozy inside and hubby will soon be home. This picture of the birds reminded me that I'm looking forward to his return from a long day of work. And to add more sweetness to his coming , he is bringing Chinese take-out home tonight. Oh, day of blessings ...let me count them one by one.

"Have not I commanded thee? Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed; for the LORD thy God is with thee withersoever thou goest." Joshua 1:9

Ann said...: What a lovely card! And chinese how delicious! Cropping is working on my scrabbooks. I'm doing them for my kids right now. I almost have John and Sara's book done. Lori's book needs a lot of work. It's fun and I love it. I want to make sometime tonight to do some art other then the scrapbooks. I go cropping once a month to my friend Debbie's. We have a great time. Sometimes we talk more then we crop but that's part of the fun. I love that flickr site you suggested I look at. Very nice stuff. Gives me inspiration. Have a nice weekend and I hope you enjoyed your dinner. We are getting rain here in Maryland.; 3:12 PM

Dawn said...: I haven't visited you in so long - shame on me! Rain would be so much better than snow at this time of year - hope we get some instead of snow - they totally missed the snow prediction last week, as I posted about, but you never know about this crazy place I live!; 2:38 PM
Brenda@CoffeeTeaBooks said...: It snowed here all day Saturday! The little birds outside were quite loud in the trees. I think they were complaining. :)

Yes, the book called Let's Have Tea Together has all those lovely Susan Wheeler illustrations. The storyline is about the Victorian animals and their seasonal teatime favorites.

Soooo cute!; 7:00 PM

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.'
