I use to at the end of the day when it was time to retire to bed, I’d fall asleep to the sound of Sound of Andy Griffith , yea I’m that old, lol! I still watch that old show from time to time but it’s so good to retire with a good book that is Bible based,

you still have time to get your book & join in, love the cover of this book!

I’ve got mine ordered though our local Bible bookstore, shipping was way to high on places like Amazon , you may could find it in your local library

tomorrow the ladies of my church will come out & sew for Little Dresses For Africa, we’ve had such great fellowship& getting a lot done, we have a table of all the sizes cut out & every Sun. /wed. night some of the ladies go back & grab  a few & coordinating ribbons & binding etc. to take home to make & bring them on our sew days, Debbie brought in 6 Sun. & Lee took home  I think  it was 5 cut out to sew together, speaking of Lee I have to remember to go pick her up in the morning lol!

SEEDS

1 Corinthians 13:13 And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity.

our Little Dresses For Africa project is growing, we had some of the ladies bring in more today that they’d made at home over the weekend  , we had 160 spools of thread donated today,we will meet at the church Tuesday for another fun filled day of fellowship, laughter & lots of sewing, after church we rearranged “again”  & laughed how we’re going to have to take new pictures seeing that our supplies & dress count has grown

OUR DRESS COUNT IS GROWING

What a fantastic start we’re getting on our Little Dresses For Africa project

we had five that were able to come out this week & sew, what a  great time of fellowship we had! there was fabric’s, ribbons, lace, threads etc galore!

we even had time to throw in a sewing lesson or two , a few of the ladies brought in some that they’d made at home to church tonight so we’ll need a new picture lol! we hung the extras & rearranged & planned our next sewing day

LIVING WATERS

John 4:11

The woman saith unto him, Sir, thou hast nothing to draw with, and the well is deep: from whence then hast thou that living water?

John 4:12

Art thou greater than our father Jacob, which gave us the well, and drank thereof himself, and his children, and his cattle?

John 4:13

Jesus answered and said unto her, Whosoever drinketh of this water shall thirst again:

John 4:14

But whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life.

John 4:15

The woman saith unto him, Sir, give me this water, that I thirst not, neither come hither to draw.

are you always seeking something that will satisfy the cravings you have within you, perhaps a longing to go deeper in your walk with God

John 7:38 He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water.

invite Jesus in today & let him satisfy that longing to be filled with a refreshing & a renewing of the spirit within that craves to take you deeper

BLESSINGS PART TWO

BLESSING: The act of one who blesses

 

And the King shall answer and say unto them, verily I say unto you in as much as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren ye have done it unto me (Matt.24:40)

BLESSED: to confer well being or prosperity up / to endow as with talent

 

the word endow means to provide/to equip with talent, this past Monday night we continued our discussion on  the Little Dresses For Africa in our Ladies Meeting ,everyone got on board & is excited to get started

 

COMPASSION:the deep feeling of sharing/to give aid or support/to show mercy

 

in Ex.1:17 the midwives save the male babies from the Kings order for all to to be killed read & see what happens & how the Lord  blessed

in Ex.2 we see Pharaoh rising up with the order to have all male babies thrown into the river & in vs.6 Pharaoh’s daughter finds Moses & has “compassion” on him

 

BLESSED:enjoying happiness/bringing happiness

 

the midwives & Pharaoh’s daughter  couldn’t save them all but they were  able to save a few or that one, we can not dress every little girl in Africa  within ourselves but we  can  help make a difference just look at the mighty things that Moses did because someone had compassion

 

I had made up a little dress to give the ladies an idea of what a pillowcase dress is & what’s involved in making one, Ms. Carolyn had the same idea & walled in with 3 cute pink ones

And Jabez called upon the God of Israel saying oh that thou wouldest bless me indeed and enlarge my coast…(1Chron.4:10) we are believing for God to enlarge our tents as we join Little Dresses For Africa  to help bless with one little dress at a time

BLESSSINGS PART ONE

 

Blessed are the poor in spirit because the kingdom of Heaven is theirs

Blessed are those who mourn because they will be comforted

Blessed are the gentle because they will inherit the earth

Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness because they will be filled

Blessed are the merciful because they will show mercy

Blessed are the pure in heart because they will see God

Blessed are the peacemakers because they will be called sons of God

Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness because the kingdom of Heaven is theirs

Blessed are you when they insult you and persecute you and falsely say every kind of evil against you because of me

(Matt.5:3-11)
