February days are now gone and March has officially kicked in. I finally purchased a new monthly focus board. We ventured out for a day date which included a movie. I love our day dates. I will give my honest review about the movie for those interested. I wanted to see this movie as it was based on a true story. I did enjoy the movie but oh my, it was a tear jerker from the get go! It ended good but mercy! Let's just say that I am thankful that no one was sitting close enough to see my tear stained face. I am glad that I saw it but I am good for a while on sad movies, even if they do end good! My oldest daughter, her husband and their son participated in the Spartan race which is a series of obstacle courses that challenge. They done so well. As you can see from the pictures it gets pretty muddy! My three daughters participate each year in the Gate River Run. I love it that they do this together. They have so much support & encouragement from all the onlookers. I am just
Recently on one my little trips to Dollar Tree I spotted this cute little candle holder. I especially liked it because it has Scripture inside the candle holder.
I thought of several ways to use this. My first thought was to buy several and to use them with Easter decoration with cute little candles in them.
Then I thought, "this would make a great little gift filled with malt ball Easter eggs or jelly beans".
Another idea was to use at each table place setting and place the silverware in it....YES, my mind thinks like this.....Different and I like different!
I love the verse inside....
Psalm 103:2 says, Praise the Lord, my soul,
and forget not all his benefits—
One commentary said the meaning of this verse was;
Bless the Lord, O my soul - The repetition here denotes the intensity or earnestness of the wish or desire of the psalmist. It is an emphatic calling upon his soul, that is, himself, never to forget the many favors which God was continually conferring upon him.
What a sweet reminder that we should praise HIM for His favor on His children. His gifts are unmeasurable and His grace and mercy is everlasting.
Well, what did I do with the cute little candle holder?
I decided it would be GREAT as a ring holder!!!
I need several more I am afraid to hold all mypretty gaudy rings.Well...they are pretty too!
Praise the Lord today my friend.....He is so worthy to be praised!

ReplyDeleteLove your new 'ring holder'. Such a cute idea! That would be so pretty with a votive candle in it. I'm going to look at my Dollar Store and see if I can find one.
