Sold! For asking price.

Amazing Grace how can it be...That you my Lord should die for me
Amazing Love I know its true.
It is my joy to worship you!
In all I do I worship you.

Walking into this new day.
I saw this and it is now a reality. Perhaps it was a reality even then.
I am going to rest now for I have done what I was to do.
We can ready this room for paint now.
Last night I saw the furniture that is in the living room, coming in here to make a family room. I will need to borrow a few chairs to create a living room vinuett.
I was able to ready the yard sale things for Friday. The garage bay is open for the other book shelves once I finish them.
It is so wonderful to just follow His lead.
The children will come home in an hour and I will be rested for them.
Beloved (came home from work over the lunch hour), and the men loaded the desk. What a nice man purchased it. This fellow as I went to shake his hand , respectfully embraced me instead. That was so cool.

'A woman's heart should be so hidden in Christ
That a man should have to seek Him first to find her.'

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not shouting 'I'm clean living,'
I'm whispering 'I was lost, Now I'm found and forgiven.'

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I don't speak of this with pride.
I'm confessing that I stumble and need Christ to be my guide.

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not trying to be strong.
I'm professing that I'm weak and need His strength to carry on.

When I say.. 'I am a Christian' I'm not bragging of success.
I'm admitting I have failed and need God to clean my mess.

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not claiming to be perfect,
My flaws are far too visible, but God believes I am worth it.

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I still feel the sting of pain...
I have my share of heartaches, so I call upon His name.

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not holier than thou,
I'm just a simple sinner Who received God's good grace, somehow!

Words have power. Here are a few of my favorite sayings.

A warm cup of tea is like a cuddle with a friend.
The North American Indians have a more eloquent word for ‘friend’ than we do in English. In their language, the word for friend literally means, “the one who carries my sorrows on his back.”
Return with Honor
The sage anticipates things that are difficult while they are easy, and does things that would become great while they are small. All difficult things in the world are sure to arise from a previous state in which they were easy, and all great things from one in which they were small. Therefore the sage, while he never does what is great, is able on that account to accomplish the greatest things."
"HOME IS WHERE YOUR STORY BEGINS"
“Live so that when your children hear these words they think of you… Fairness Caring Integrity Honesty Love Trust.”
"O Lord help my words to be gracious and tender today, for tomarrow I may have to eat them."
"No man has ever been shot while doing the dishes"
