A New Look

I couldn't help it.

 I confess, I am a girl.

 There are times when I need to switch thing around. Can't stand having my feet stuck in the muck, or trapped in a corner. 

 I move the furniture in my house without telling my husband, and today I changed the appearance of my website.

 Do you like it? I hope so.

 I felt "Let's Talk" welcomed you more into the conversation. Gives you an opportunity to say what you're thinking...and I love to hear what you have to say.

 I felt the colors were warm, inviting, and might make you want to sit a spell and chat with all those who stop and join us.

 I felt the table setting would entice you to take your time, maybe venture into the other rooms of my website where you'll find virtual sweet tea, flavored coffees, assorted teas, and, of course, pastries.

 Next time you come, bring a friend and let us get to know him or her, too.

 May God richly bless your day with warmth, sunshine, and giggles.

Wow! Lovely change. I have always felt the joy in the light pastel pink color you have used. And this morning in my prayer journal I was thanking God for coffee and tea! So I came here and found virtual cups. Sweet! Actually, I don't take sugar in either coffee or tea (well, sometimes in sweet iced tea).

Blessings, Janice

Thank you, Janice.

What a wonderful idea to thank God for the treat most of us enjoy every morning, coffee or tea.

I don't take sugar in mine either, but I do add cream to my coffee. And as for sweet iced tea, I especially love the taste when I visit friends in the south.

Have a blessed day:)

Suzanne Woods Fisher - Overcoming the Fear of Failure

By
We've all had something fail. Maybe a school assignment, baking a cake, changing a car tire. Well that was my shortlist confession. There really is a mile long list that you don't want to hear.  Talk about a quick drive to the blues. Even one negative comment in a barrel full of praises can take us down. Sigh. Why oh why do we remember the one negative one and forget the positives.  You are not alone. We all do this. But there is a way of escape. Today, Suzanne Woods Fisher is going to share her story. The Fear of Failure “For I am the Lord, your God, who takes hold of your right hand and says to you. Do not fear; I will help you” (Isaiah 41:13, niv).              Years ago, before I received my first book contract, an editor returned a manuscript to me with the comment that the writing wasn’t up to her publishing house’s “caliber.”  Ouch!  That was a tough remark to swal...

A Memory Device For You

By
Photo Courtesy Recently I added a memory game to my week's activities.  It all started when I listened to one of those fabulous sermons in church and actually took notes. Later in the week, I recalled liking the sermon and searched for the notes, but lamented when I couldn't find the piece of paper. I quizzed myself: What was the general topic? I racked my brain…good grief this was Thursday and a thousand other things had happened when I asked the question. After a cup of tea, visualizing where I sat in the sanctuary, and using every other means possible to remember the general topic I finally answered the question.  The process to recall the rest of the good things said was an epic fail.  Although I have since started using a notebook I have created a memory game. On Monday, at any point during the day, I try to say the following without the use of my notes: General topic of the sermon Main book of the Bible used  Application p...

Laughter and Singing at the Homeless Shelter

By
It was a night to remember. A night to tell friends about. So I am... Fifty men, women, and teens rode in busses on icy expressways into the inner city. They poured out of the bus at a homeless shelter unsure where to go, what to do, or what to say. One led the pack through the main doors, pass security checkpoints, and on through winding hallways to a large room. At night, this room is filled, wall to wall, with cots, blankets, and at this time of year, cold homeless men, women, and children. On this evening before the night, hundreds of chairs formed straight rows and faced a platform.   The fifty set up sound and instrument equipment. Singers cozied in the limited platform space. Instrumentalists tuned their instruments.  A few residents poked their heads in the door. Intrigued, they came in and watched the first measures of several songs start, stop, start again. Microphone levels adjusted. The singers laughed. Chattered. The group stepped off to the side and...
