Casting Call


I woke up this morning with this little chorus playing in my
mind, and it just delighted my heart...

I cast all of my cares upon You...


I lay all of my burdens down at Your feet


And anytime I don't know wha-at to do,


I will cast all of my cares upon You.

{Come to me all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.}
Matthew 11:28

He knows us each by name...

He is THRILLED when we rise
from our bed each morning.

We are the focus of His love
all day long.


Who wouldn't want to live for a God like that?

Do you know the love of this wonderful Savior?

If per chance you don't know this amazing love,
or would like to learn more about Him,
please email me anytime...

Praying that you meet with Him today, and truly

CAST ALL OF YOUR CARES UPON HIM!


Love and hugs,
Becky

Share and Tell!

Happee Sunday, Gals!!  Hope you all have enjoyed a lovely day!!

I am excited to share with you a wonderful giveaway I won
from my delightful friend, Tara, over at New Day New Season!!

Tara is such a sweetie and is oh so very talented and creative!!

She makes pendants out of dominoes!!  How cool is that?
This is the one I won!

I have to tell you I LOVE it Tara.  I wore it the other day with my
jeans and denim jacket and it looked GREAT!! 

I know, a picture with me wearing it would have been much better,
and trust me, I TRIED, but they all came out awful!!

To prove it is indeed a domino!!

I also won this fused glass necklace made by Tara's sis.
The talent gene runs strong in their fam!!
I make glass beads so this is right up my alley!

And finally, this WONDERFUL wire and bead cross. I
have it hanging in my family room and it gets way too much
light for a really good photo, but it looks so pretty in there!

Tara made this, too!!

A close-up of the detail!  So cool!!!
 

Thanks so much Tara for hosting this awesome giveaway!
What a huge blessing!!
Hope you'll stop by and show Tara some
BLOGGY LOVE!!

Have a joyful week!!
Love ya!!

What Fragrance Are You?


I came across an interesting question the other day...

What fragrance are you distilling into the lives of those around you?

Needless to say, this question captivated me.

I mean,  I would like to think that I am always dispensing goodness,

love, peace, and joy, but...

I don't think it would have STUCK with me if that were true!!

I talk a lot to our Keeper's at Home girls about how  important

the family is, and how God wants us to first be a lovely fragrance

to those we live with, and then everyone else.

Hmm...

Isn't it just so much easier to be wonderful to everyone else??!!

This little question has definitely made me examine more closely

my attitude in my home, and interactions with my family.

I have found that there is...sigh...room for improvement!!

What about you, sweet friends?

Are you dispensing a sweet smelling aroma continually in your home?
(and  I don't mean that you have an aromatic candle burning!!) ;o)

May God have His perfect work in us and our homes!!


***I recently won a lovely giveaway from Tara at New Day New Seasons
that I am so excited to show you, but after I shot my photos, my
camera battery died!  As soon as I get it charged I will share!!

May your hearts be filled with joy today!!

Love ya bunches!
Becky
