Yesterday, I spent my lunch outside. The sun was shining, the breeze was blowing and a local church was playing “Blessed Assurance” on the bells. The song rang out over the town filling the air with it’s melody.
After experiencing the muscles in my back tensing up to point of cramps, earlier in the week, this song was a melodic reminder that no matter what I go through I have blessed assurance in Jesus Christ. At times the enemy will use every day things, like my job to get to me, especially when I am striving to grow in my relationship with God. It was through the power of prayer that I was able to relax and get through the back pain. As the week got closer to this weekend, the back pain eased up and today I woke up with some back pain but it left me during the day.
I'm a happily married mom of two, living in Arkansas and selling AVON. Both of my children are grown and in college. I often wonder where the time went. I never thought I'd have blog but when blogs came along, I jumped on board. That just goes to show one doesn't know what the future holds.
I was born in 1967 but my life truly began in 1996. That is the year I realized I need God in my life. That is the year I asked Jesus Christ into my life. So, you will see, as you follow my blog, there will be mention of God, Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit from time to time. I can't live without sharing that part of my life.
I like to go to flea markets and visit antique shops and I usually find something to take home with me.
I'm fairly new at crocheting. I tried to learn to crochet in my twenties but I didn't have left handed instructions. I could do it right handed but it was hard for me to keep my stitches consistent. Then a few years ago a left handed friend of mine gave me a book with left handed crocheting instructions and I learned to crochet.
My first quilt was in done in 2001. Money was tight and I wanted to give my husband something nice. So I decided to make him a "blanket". Little did I know I would be hooked and still be making quilts years later.
I'm starting my hand at scrapbooking and watercoloring. We will see how that goes. :)
I update my AVON page each week with a special deal, so be sure to check it out.
Well, that's a little about me. Hope you enjoy my blog and follow me on this journey.
