Spiritual Gifts
Each of us has been blessed in a variety of ways with God given talents. Before I die I hope I can say I have used up all the gifts God gave me and shared them with those I love.

Christmas Bazaar Projects
Pot Holders and Pot Pinchers ~ pictured on the right. Pot Pinchers are cute little pot holders that you slip your fingers into and hold onto the handles or lids of pots and pans. Small and convenient to use and very affordable to make as you can sew them from scraps or fat quarters.
The pot holder at the top left I have dubbed my "kitchen diva" pot holder. I gave it to my aunt for her birthday and she loves it.

Another New Skirt
The photo at the left is of a Lila Tueller skirt I made. I really admire the designs of both women, Lila Tueller and Kay Whitt. They have some very unique patterns and also some very creative ways of using coordinating fabrics. The first day I wore this one out to do some errands and shopping I got four compliments from other women, three of whom I didn't even know.

From the Mouths of Babes
God reveals Himself to us in many ways. One such way being through nature; all one has to do is to look around them and see the many manifestations of the Almighty.
In physics energy is never destroyed; it only changes form. In the spiritual realm the same is true of our lives. Our bodies may fade away and then die but our souls never do. God always was, is now and always will be. No one created God ` God created us and everything.
The chances of life being created from nothing, or evolving by itself from nothing, is like a dictionary being created as the result of an explosion in a printing shop!
Just as the muscles of our bodies stay fit through exercise and work so our spirits are strengthened through our trials. Our trials and tribulations are exercise for the soul.

Well here we are in another new month. The skies outside are cloudy and cool, a welcome change from last month's heat. Yesterday my husband and I spent the afternoon working in our back yard sectioning off an addition to our chicken's "run". This addition gives them more turf along the back fence and access to a nice corner space where they can kick up the dirt and look for more bugs. This is what chickens do, hunt, scratch, dig, and make messes! But they are also affectionate and will let you pick them up and stroke them. They are so soft and beautiful and the eggs they provide us with are of the highest quality because their diet is rich with kitchen scraps and a good quality hen feed!
