Our last Saturday drive in October 2010

What a beautiful sunrise we experienced as we headed out for out last Saturday drive in Oct 2010. Can't believe it's already November can you??? That means we will be celebrating our Abba Father's birth in just about 55 day! Our trip was cut short cuz we decided to go home and tinker around the house!!! The sun was bright and winds scattered beautiful fall leaves all over the place. God provides all that beauty, and assures us of His awesome love in so many ways...have a blessed week my friends!!!

The Potter's House Retreat

Hearts were touched, and changed! The presence of God was felt by all....you must go visit this awesome blog where you can decide if it's the place you'd like to visit for a couple days learning to listen to God thru Bible study! Blessings to all. I'm unable to post any photos of our weekend, but you can see some of what my sister, Mary captured. http://wwwasplendidadventure.blogspot.com

I hope you are able to use this link to Nancy's blog.

I"m on my way!

It's 7 am and I'm ready to leave for the airport (in 2hrs) As most of you know I'm heading to GA to spend 10 days with my very talented sister, Mary. We'll have some time to get all the talking outta the way (tee hee) then we'll head out for the Potter's House Retreat in NC. We are both really excited about this lovely adventure. So I won't be posting for at least 10 days...Do have an awesome week my friends creating all kinds of things with the talent God has given you...(((hugs)))

Oh, I posted this little 3 piece set some time ago, but the photo was terrible..this one is a little better.. This too is an expression of my love for the Lord!!!

Sharing God's beautiful landscapes

I've said it before, and can't help saying it again...Just think of what our Father in Heaven has provided for all of us. It goes beyond the beauty we see as we travel around the country, the trees, wildflowers, wildlife even the rocks, streams, and rivers! He provides all things for those who stop and listen to HIS guidance thru our Holy Spirit, and believe thru faith that HIS word gives us all the answers to our lives. He lives right inside us...just how awesome is that?? I'm feeling such joy in my heart knowing He's there and I'm finally truly listening...are you??



I've been playing around with copper again..eheheh!!! I don't know why, but there's something that draws me to it. Haven't a clue what tho...May you each have a blessed week full of Joy, Happiness, thru God's grace and Love!!! I love you too!!!

Just a little something I've been playing around with...

I've been making some earrings and a couple necklaces that I haven't listed anywhere yet...although they are all gemstones with Sterling Silver I'm going to put them on my etsy shop for a very reasonable price since everyone is feeling the effects of our off kilter economy right now...
Our ride today took up in the mountains of WV where we were blessed to see many yard sales (Yea) and awesome colors along the mountain ridge...am gonna post some photos as soon as I download them~ Have a beautiful Sunday tomorrow!!!

Just wanted to say hi!!

Time has been going by faster and faster as I get older and older..ehehhe!! Sound familiar? Hubby and I have 5 grown children between us all married but the youngest. She had a tube put in her ear today so I went to meet her to make sure she was ok...we had a great lunch at Cracker Barrel. As you know my other daughter has been on her Honeymoon this week~! We have grandchildren ranging from 2 to 17! Yep, I can hardly believe the past 28 yrs has passed seeming more like 10...I'm not complaining cuz I love my family and all the grandkids, but I've been thinking lately why I'm feeling I need to be doing something more....I'm loving painting and making jewelry, but God has been speaking to me in my quiet time each more telling me I should be reaching out to others helping those in need. Since I've been home the past few years unable to work I guess I thought there was little I could really do....walking and driving is difficult at times, but I'm not complaining I just need to be doing more to share God's love with all.

Then God gave me an idea...It's perfect!!! I'm going to be going to the nursing home in town to visit those who don't have family visiting often, reading to those who can't anymore. What in the world was I think, there are so many things we can do even if we have some short comings..ehehhehe!!! So, I will go to my sister's in GA, and have a wonderful visit with her, and her family then go to the Potter's House Retreat in NC with her. When I come home I'll be doing what I do best..Visiting with others and maybe even share my art with some...I"m so excited!!! I"d love to hear what you do to serve our Lord.
Blessings for a wonderful FALL.

Here's a little painting I did a couple weeks ago but forgot to share.

The Cross

Good morning...it's been raining here in VA since yesterday evening, and I am thanking my Lord for answered prayer! We are over 7 inches low in water at this time so the 3 to 5 inches we are to get in the next couple days is awesome...I wanted to share with you a little about my Faith...I had been a member of a Baptist Church where we'd lived before moving up to the mountains further north in VA...almost to the Berkeley Springs WV line. ( I believe God allowed us to find this little doublewide that's nestled down in the middle of huge old trees on 5 acres of land...in previous posts I've share some of the remodeling we've been doing in the last 5 yrs of living here. My hubby has been amazing as he's certainly leaped out of his comfort zone by not only painting the outside, but even atempting carpentry which he had no knowledge at all. I'm proud of him! ) Now I got way off track, but hey those who know me are used to it..hehehe!! Since there wasn't a Baptist Church in our area I started attending the Wesley Chapel Methodist Church just around the corner from where we live. Then Pastor, Jim Markle is a very loving and caring Pastor who shares his love for our Lord with his sermons...it's a very small Church with only about 22 members each Sunday, then he goes off to a it's sister Church a couple miles away where he shares another sermon with their larger congragation!
WELLLLL, yesterday I joined that Church for I've found the members to be loving children of God who share that love with each other and me too!!! My way of thinking is it really doesn't matter which denomonation we belong to it's the fellowship with others that counts...Bible Believing Churches who believe in sharing the Gospel with all those we come into contact with, as well as sharing what God has blessed us with along the way. We are to help those we see are in need...isn't it awesome when we reach out to give a little something to others how it not only helps them, but it makes our hearts sing too? Soooo I have painting a little painting of a cross in memorance of my joining!!! May we all reach out to help those in need for God will provide a way for us to do just that!!!
Have a wonderful week my friends waking early to have your quiet time with God...that has become the most precious time for me!!!!

Flowers for April's wedding

I've created a small bouquet for my daughter to carry on Oct 2nd for her family shared wedding. (They've actually already married)
I'm so happy that she's found the love of a sweet guy she's know as a friend for many years...
