Hmmmm, could you use one too?

I'm just saying!!!!   You see that button to the right?  Yea, that Grain Mill....
I'm praying that the Lord will bless me with it!

Should I win this, I plan to

Should I win this lovely prize, I plan to give my first 7 loaves away as gifts!!!

I'm REALLY trying here...

I truly am trying to win this MILL.
I have an idea of baking bread starting in September and selling it as a small source of income.  I want to bake bread from fresh ground whole wheat flour for my family and my soon to be customers.  This would be an expense I can spread out over the purchase of the various grains I will need.

Don't forget about this giveaway!!!

Can you tell I really want to win THIS!!!!

YOU too could win a Nutrimill Grain Mill

I think I've only wanted one since forever!!!  Halle the Homemaker is giving one away as her 2 year blog anniversary give away!

OHHHHH the possibilities should I be the blessed winner!  It's part of the tools I need to begin grinding my own wheat to start my home cottage bread business!!!!  Yes, the possibilities are endless!

Beautiful Monday Morning

This really is the day that the Lord has made.  Will you rejoice and be glad in it?
I use to hate Mondays.  I hated having to get up and go to work after what seemed like a short weekend.  I'm still in favor of working Tue-Fri. ;-)
But my perspective on Mondays has changed a bit.  It is another blessing that God has gifted us with to show forth His love to one another and to seek out the lost and share His goodness.  After all, you could have gone to bed on Sunday night and never woke up again.  I'm just saying!!!!!

On another note, my heart is very grieved by the things that are happening in NY.  My brother was gay and no one knew until very near his death.  I don't hate the people in this lifestyle, but I do grieve that they are living in sin and grieving the Holy Spirit.  I pray that their eyes will be opened and they will turn from the lies the enemy has fed them and they've chosen to believe.  Reach out to someone and plant the seed of God's truth and then allow God to do the rest.

Have a blessed Monday and choose today to seek Him with your ALL your heart.

Psalms 119:1-2 How blessed are those whose way is blameless, Who walk in the law of the Lord.  How blessed are those who observe His testimonies, Who seek Him with all their heart.

The Lord's Day

We weren't able to attend services today with our church family so we had a family time of devotions instead using the notes from our last Sunday service.  It was a pleasant time in the Lord.  Luke 8:4-12, we're studying about the soil of our hearts.  Today was in regards to the seed falling by the wayside and how the enemy comes immediately to snatch the Word from us.  You can go here and read the notes for yourself.  I pray it will be enriching to your spiritual growth.

Yesterday, my girls, my sister, and I were able to attend a one day women's retreat at a dear friends church.  I love her church family.  They have always welcomed me in and made me feel like part of the family from the first time we walked in about 5 years ago.  We attended this church for almost a year until God moved us to our current church home.  I gleaned so much from the women yesterday and was encouraged and renewed in various areas, but especially in my quiet time with the Lord and to keep pressing forward in our family devotions.

I know the Lord is making changes within my heart regarding various areas and though I don't always look forward to presenting them to my children, I do feel a great sense of relief to have those burdens lifted.

Praying you had a blessed day in the Lord!!!!

May I leave you with Ps. 119:11 Your Word I have treasured in my heart, That I may not sin against You.
