{Vacation is over, now back to Reality}

  Well, I made it back to blog today! I've been MIA as several of my blogging friends pointed out and sent me sweet messages to check on me but I am back for today. We just returned from our family vacation and I always enjoy going but there is no place like home! I wanted to share a few pictures with you. I wish I could share them all but you'd be here for days! LOL!  Anna Maria Island was our destination this year together as a family. It's such a beautiful piece of paradise. The Island is only 7 miles so we traveled around on golf carts and bikes. The beaches are so lovely there. Such peaceful moments can sure be had at the ocean. Marty and I decided to take the ride and we even enjoyed the dip! It was breath taking and such a smooth ride. Our three beauties.  I did do some fishing but also lots of boating and a little reading.  We celebrated our middle daughter Melissa's 40th birthday while on vacation. We decorated a room in the house that we rented and went all ou

HOPE and FUTURE

 EXCITED!!!! Introducing an online 4-week Bible Study!




Donna Pyle is an amazing Bible Study leader among other things that she is gifted in. This is the 2nd study of Donna's that I will be teaching. However, this is my first Online study to ever do! I am excited! Donna has given me permission to share her study with others online. When I asked Donna about sharing her study she didn't stutter when she said, "Absolutely". Oh she is indeed a woman after God's heart. 

I have felt the leading of the Lord to do an online summer study for a while now and had prayed and asked God that if this from Him to open the door. Within a week a sweet blogging friend of mine emailed me personally (Debbie Huffaker) asking me if I had ever considered doing an online study for those ladies across the miles. Go visit Debbie she is over at http://www.jeremiah-2911.com Then I emailed Donna Pyle next and when her response came back as a YES I knew this was from the Lord. I also have had several ladies that cannot attend my class this summer due to things in their life so this would be good for those ladies as well.

So, here is how this will work. This will be basically a 4 week study. Of course my version will be much shorter than the book version. I highly recommend that your purchase the book, Our Hope and Future. You can go straight to Donna's site and go to (store) and from there you can find this book among many others.  http://artesianministries.org/

I just recently finished teaching her book, "Your Strong Suit". Excellent study and life changing! The thing that you will find with Donna's studies is they all are based solely on the Living Word of God. I love that!!!

My goal is to have our lessons posted on Monday mornings each week. You will have all that week to do your lessons. If you can't get to it on Monday then maybe Tuesday you can.The lessons will be short therefore making this Bible Study easy peasy for you.  Then as you do your lesson you will post your responses onto the blog. Basically we will have conversation and fellowship on the blog. There will be a reply under any comment you make so that others can correspond directly with you should they desire. 


This short online lesson will be private. So that means you will have to log in order to participate.Also, I will more than likely create a new blog to host online studies. So...if you are interested then please comment on here but also send me your personal email. ( creationsbycindy@nefcom.net) I will contact you when the class is ready to launch. (Which hopefully will be next week)  

Looking forward to our "Sweet Nuggets of Truth" as we dive into Jeremiah 29:11-12.

Hugs and blessings, Cindy

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

{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

{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
