Cookies

Pink and blue frosted sugar cookies were baked for Mother's Day. They went with me to the church for the petition-signing and the rest were sent to all the kids and grandkids.

While visiting an elderly lady last week, I told her I had to go home and bake. She told me she liked oatmeal and chocolate chip cookies. So tonight, after church, a batch of oatmeal chocolate chip cookies was made. I even added spices.

Now--- to get to the scary part of the day. I just made the same cookies that my Mom makes because they are HER favorite!! And, it turned out I like them. Help!!! I am getting old.

Blue Day


Do you have those days when you are chilled all day and can't seem to get motivated to accomplish anything? And, it feels like the weight of the world is on your shoulders.

The Lord has done great things in my life, but I have no courage to do great things for Him. I have no knowledge or talents to bring in lost sheep. Why and for what reason did He come to me? I don't understand.

I sure hope this "blue mood" is only because of the weather. Tomorrow I'll just keep walking forward. I trust the Lord will guide my way and today give me rest and renew my strength.

As One Approved

Walk with the Lord. Wherever He leads, He will give you strength and will keep you. How many people cry out to us that they are persecuted because they don't have their freedom. Yet, that freedom is not from God, it is the snare of Satan.

"2 Timothy 2:14 Remind them of these things, charging them before the Lord not to strive about words to no profit, to the ruin of the hearers. 15 Be diligent to present yourself approved to God, a worker who does not need to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. 16 But shun profane and idle babblings, for they will increase to more ungodliness. 17 And their message will spread like cancer. Hymenaeus and Philetus are of this sort, 18 who have strayed concerning the truth, saying that the resurrection is already past; and they overthrow the faith of some. 19 Nevertheless the solid foundation of God stands, having this seal: 'The Lord knows those who are His,' and, 'Let everyone who names the name of Christ depart from iniquity."


Keep the faith. The great glory of His Kingdom far excels anything here on earth. Let us walk with the Lord at all times. His Word is True.

"Luke 16:11 Therefore if you have not been faithful in the unrighteous mammon, who will commit to your trust the true riches?"
