We shall reap what we sow..

So far this has been a pretty good week. Nothing overly exciting, but not boring, either, LOL. Monday evening, my sister-in-law, her husband and their two kids came over for dinner, and we FINALLY got to have our Christmas with McKenna (3 yo) and Adam (1 yo). We still hadn't yet, because the day that the family all had Christmas together, Keith had a stomach virus, and we just hadn't had the opportunity to make up for it since. So that was fun. It was so cute to see little Adam opening his gift because he would gasp in excitement, LOL.
Tuesday evening, Keith went visiting with Bro. Davis, and I went with Natasha (This picture is the yearly Christmas Parade picture of Natasha and I, aren't we cute? hee hee Gosh that's a lot of teeth in one picture.). We have really enjoyed Tuesday visitation with them so far. Its a good opportunity for us to spend time together, and we're also doing something for Jesus at the same time! Afterwards, we ate at the Mexican restaurant for dinner, and just had a silly time. God truly blesses our efforts. Bro. Davis was just saying at dinner Tuesday evening that sometimes it seems like we visit and visit and visit, and nobody ever comes to church from those visits. But last night, a lady and her children that Keith and Bro. Davis visited came! AND SHE'S A VERY GOOD PIANO PLAYER, lol, and if you knew how desperately our church needed one right now, you would understand my excitement!! So we're hoping God will answer our prayer through her and her family! And also, another lady visited the church last night as the result of Thursday night soulwinning. It was such a blessing. Just last night in my Bible reading I read this precious promise:
"Be not deceived; God is not mocked: fo rwhatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap. For he that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that soweth to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting. And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season, we shall reap, if we faint not. As we have therefore opportunity, let us do good unto all men, especially unto them who are of the household of faith." Galatians 6:7-10
When I get weary in the work, I can hold to that blessed promise, that if I faint not, I will one day receive my reward in Hea
ven! Thank you, Jesus!

Artist Trading Card & Thought for the Day

I feel like I have been sickeningly lazy today! But I have washed a couple of blankets, paid some bills, yada yada. I have also been working on my Artist Trading Cards for a swap I am in. These little guys are so tedious! We had to use a Dr. Seuss quote on them, so I used: "Today you are you, that is truer than true. There is no one alive who is youer than you!" Anyway, gluing all of the words on it has been the most tedious and annoying part. But in the end I think they're pretty stinkin' cute! Unfortunately the picture is pretty dark because I am camera challenged, but its a pretty mixture of pinks and greens.

The thought for today: "God honors the faith of His people because the faith of His people honors God." -- Dr. Jon M. Jenkins

Blogging Challenged

Okay, I am definitely blogging-challenged! And I don't even know who would read my blog, except maybe Ashley! But at least it will be something for me to do when I am bored. Maybe I can post my scrap work...should I ever get around to accomplishing any! :-P
