{Happy Resurrection Day}

I hope that you all have enjoyed this beautiful Easter Sunday. He is risen! I wanted to end the month of March in sharing a few of my favorite photos from the month.  Celebrated my favorite grandsons birthday. Conner is 18 now!  Our beautiful Mallory Grace all decked out for the prom. The youngest grands (sisters) were flower girls in their uncle's wedding. The oldest one was in her element of dress up. The younger one, not so much. THAT HAIR BAND ITCHED HER HEAD she said!  I purchased a new pair of wedges that I love. I am always skeptical about ordering shoes or clothing but read the reviews on Amazon and went for it. Love the color and the style.  The youngest grand loves to take selfies and play with the filters.  Marty colored Easter eggs. He always colors at least a dozen every year. He always says he's doing it for the grands but I know he does it because of the inner child in him! LOL! I went with the little ones to Disney on Ice and we had the best time. I think I enjo

Wednesday in the Word-Tea time with God

I love hot tea. Do you? I like all kinds of flavored teas and I can't say that any one in particular is my favorite but for some reason I've always found hot tea to be soothing to the soul.



So pull up a chair and have a cup of tea with me today and let's share a devotional from one my favorite devotional books called "Jesus Calling" by Sarah Young.


In a world of unrelenting changes, I am the One who never changes. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End. (Revelation 22:13)



Find in Me the stability for which you have yearned. I created a beautifully ordered world; one that reflects My perfection.


 Now, however, the world is under bondage of sin and evil. Every person on the planet faces gasping jaws of uncertainty.


The only antidote to this poisonous threat is drawing closer to Me.


In My presence you can face uncertainty in perfect Peace. (John 16:33)



It is so good to know within the depths of my soul that no matter what happens in this world that I can have perfect peace through Jesus Christ, my Lord and Savior. And oh I do need thee every hour....every minute, every second and every breath I take.

Just as a cup of hot tea can soothe my soul so does the Word of the Living God.
Have a cup of hot tea today my friend and allow Him to soothe your soul.

Hugs and blessings, Cindy

      Thanks Connie. I used to NOT like hot tea either but now I love it! I think getting older has got me to liking lots of things! LOL!

      Thanks Heather. That old vase is a tin can that I covered with paper but has served me well. Maybe one day we can have a cup of tea together!

    Very comforting post because it is certainly true that if it isn't the Middle East, it's Texas or Baltimore or right next door... Very pretty vase and flowers...I'm sipping peppermint tea today.

    I read Jesus Calling often because I feel His presence so very close. I wonder if it is one of the most popular devotionals? I am so blessed by it. I discovered Lady Earl Grey for caffeine and my favorite herbal is chamomile just before bed!

    Love this post!
    Hugs,

      Lifeway told me recently that Jesus Calling has been their absolute best seller! I had a lady tell me today Mary that she drinks a cup of Sleepy time tea every night before bed. Thanks for stopping by,

    I have always loved tea, Cindy, and I love your photos here! If you are able to get Twinings Jasmine and Earl Grey (the leaves, not in the tea bags), and you have a tea strainer, if you can make yourself a cup of these two teas together, this is very nice! Please be advised though the Earl Grey does contain caffeine, so you may wish to drink it in the morning or early afternoon. I have had Earl Grey and Jasmine many times and they go great together! :)

    This was so beautiful and I needed to read this today. I just found out that my breast surgeon who I have been following with for two years (cyst issues) Has pancreatic cancer that has spread to her liver. I have been devastated and so torn up inside for her and her family. Please include her in your prayers. Her name is Teresa Flippo. She is an amazing Doctor and is only in her mid 50's. I can't stop thinking about her each and every second and praying so hard. She can use all the prayers you have. xoxo

    Oh my Debbie. I am so sorry to hear this news. I am praying right now and asking God to give her strength. This is devastating. We lost my sweet motherinlove to a liver disease this past Oct. and it is so hard. Only Hope we have is in Christ. Thinking of you today and asking our Lord to keep you in His tender care.

    Hi Cindy, this is a special post and thank you for sharing your time and soothing tea. Our Lord really does give peace for the soul and without him we would be lost. I love vanilla chai tea too and drink it just about everyday. Love your pretty pics to go with your post.

    Thank you for sharing this devotion. I read Jesus Calling as part of my devotions every morning. What a wonderful promise - His peace! Where would we be without it in this world of uncertainty and constant change?

    God's Word and His love for us all comforts me beyond expression! You know I am a cancer survivor and without Him, I would have, could not have ever survived. Aren't we so blessed, so fortunate, so grateful to know Him and that He gives us just what we need!

Hiding the Ugly Hot Water Heater

 I shared that I wanted to hide my ugly hot water heater in my laundry room with you a few weeks ago. It just stuck out like a sore thumb. But after all it is a hot water heater right? So my man took a piece of wood (not real wood) but it worked and built a frame for me. So now to see if it would fit and it did. I painted it white and did not like the texture it had even after two coats of white. (rule of thumb...you get what you pay for and the wood was cheap) But I wasn't going to let it whip me!  Found some contact paper at Walmart in the gray and white. Covered the front with the contact paper and loved the look. The top was covered with a piece of painted wood as well and worked perfect to place this on top... And this.... Added a clothes basket in the corner and here was the top.... Yep, no longer an eye sore to me! Went perfect with my gray walls and gray and white floor. Remember the wood tray I bought at a yard

{Happy 46th Wedding Anniversary To Us}

  Happy October everyone! I wanted to pop in today and share a few pictures. Marty and I celebrated our 46th wedding anniversary on September 23.  Oh it seems so long ago that we said "I Do". We started dating when I was 16. Married at 18 and began a family at 20. Needless to say we have surely grown up together. Praise the Lord that we are growing "Older" together.  We decided since it had been about 8-9 years since we had been to Savannah, Ga. that we would take a weekend there and just enjoy a scenic luncheon cruise.  We enjoyed walking River street and sightseeing, shopping and eating of course! It was a nice get away and perfect for us as we are simply two imperfect people that fit perfectly together.  I did spot Santa while in Savannah though! YES, I love Christmas so I had to stop at several Christmas shops! We've had outings that have kept us quite busy and we have surely been blessed to be able to attend our grands functions and our little outings toget

{SON-Flowers}

Don't you just love sunflowers? When I think about sunflowers I think of two things. My motherinlove who loved sunflowers and Fall. I came across a devotional written by Julia Bettencourt on sunflowers and thought it so appropriate for today as I wanted to share my sunflowers with you. Here's a few lessons we can learn from the sunflower.    Sunflowers Track The Sun.   Most plants are attracted to light but the flowering head of the sunflower actually tracks the sun following it's path and moving toward where it is in the sky all during the day. I read somewhere that sunflowers track the sun when they are in bud stage. Isn't that how it usually goes for us as Christians? When we first come to know the Lord, we get excited about knowing all about Him and living for Him, but after awhile we sometimes grow a little preoccupied with other things and get our eyes off of the Lord.   Wouldn't it be great if as a Christian we'd track th
