"As we have opportunity,
let us do good unto all,
especially unto them who
are of the household of faith."
Galatians 6:10
Please be patient with me....I'm hurrying,
but I took on a pretty big project here! :)
I selected this song for this particular
page because I need to be reminded that
although I often think that sudden crises
reveal my character,
the everday, ordinary areas of my life
alone reveal my heart more than I like to admit.
Also, only what is in my heart every day
can spill out in times of crises!
In every moment, I must strive to be true.
I pray that as you visit here with me
you will be encouraged to be true.
"When he arrived and saw the evidence
of the grace of God,
he was glad and encouraged them all to
remain true to the Lord with all their hearts." Acts 11:23

I WOULD
BE TRUE
I would be true, for there are those who
trust me; I would be pure, for there are those who care;
I would be strong, for there is much to
suffer; I would be brave, for there is much to dare;
I would be brave, for there is much to
dare.
I would be friend of all-the foe, the
friendless; I would be giving, and forget the gift;
I would be humble, for I know my weakness;
I would look up, and laugh, and love and lift;
I would look up, and laugh, and love and
lift.
I would be faithful through each passing
moment; I would be constantly in touch with God;
I would be strong to follow where He leads
me; I would have faith to keep the path Christ trod;
I would have faith to keep the path Christ
trod.

Let us give thanks! ...
For the flowers of Divine grace and human
kindness;
for the thorns that require careful handling
and the disciplines and tasks that train
us for strength and honor;
for the Kindly Light that leads us,
for the love that heals our hurts and
the mercy that lifts us when we fall.

Country
Kitchen
HELP NOT WANTED
I'll admit the steak was out of this world,
the salad could not have been beaten,
but blackened potatoes are not my dish;
charred onions are best not eaten.
All day I've been scouring that blackened
pot and scrubbing my grease-spotted floor;
you had the oven so all-time hot, it won't
be the same any more!
Henceforth my course is clearly defined,
'though for a respite I'm itchin'...
your offers of help will be firmly declined.
Darling, please stay out of my kitchen!
--Lee Hendry*

Here are two of my favorite quikkies! Enjoy!
The Pilgrim's progress, we've come to
know, is not a ship, journey or a rock in the least.
Our progress, instead, is in perfecting
a Thanksgiving microwave feast!

Two little girls were visiting the museum of natural
history. They had been standing for an hour in front of the mummy exhibit
of the Egyptian room. Finally, one of them asked the attendant, "Do you
catch them and stuff them yourself?"*

The Learning Nook
"Has education made you sympathize with all good causes, and made
you eager to espouse them? Has education made you public-spirited? Has
it made you a brother to the weak? Have you learned to make friends and
to keep them? Do you know how to be a friend to yourself?
"Can you look an honest man or an honest woman straight in the eye?
Do you see anything to love in a little child? Will a lonely dog follow
you in the street? Can you be high-minded and happy in the meaner drudgeries
of life? Are you good for anything to yourself? Can you be happy alone?
Can you look out on the world and see anything else but dollars and cents?
Can you look into a mud puddle by the wayside and see the clear sky? Can
you see anything in the puddle but mud?
"If so, then you are educated."*
