Peace

I woke this morning to my mind running 90 miles an hour. I am never happy when that happens because it usually causes me more stress in the day. However, on today it is serving a different purpose for me. I am calmed by the thought because the Lord has given me peace about a particular situation to which I have no control over anyway. My mind was filled with different scriptures that calm the spirit. Peace, peace, wonderful peace coming down from the Father above.

Its always a benefit to us to be still and know that HE is the LORD our GOD...

Romans 8:28
And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.

Apologies...

It has been forever since my last blog. I have been torn between to blog or to not blog. I have to admit my attitude has been pretty nasty. I should blog with a attitude of service. So, having said that to say I am going to continue trying to blog.

Looking forward to future blogging!

Review of "Money Secrets of the AMISH"

I chose this book because I am forever looking for tips about wise money habits and living simply. to be quite honest, I find the Amish community to be intriguing and a superb example in the time we are living. The book wasn't a disappointment for me at all! Craker's interviews with Amish families provide lots of wonderful suggestions for living frugally and illustrate the sense of community that the Amish people have. It is encouraging to read of people who are truly interested and committed to helping their families and their neighbours. Their self-sufficiency is amazing, as is their ability to use and reuse things that others would simply toss. Craker also gives examples of ways that she has applied these principles to her own life and spending habits.

Thomas Nelson Publishers provided me with a complimentary copy of this book. The opinions expressed in this review are my own.
