Well, we took a few days this week to visit a friend in South Florida.  We need to visit South Florida in the winter not when the temperature is in the 90's.  Had a great time shopping, finding some new things to use for cards and eating.  

When I arrived home I had a wonderful package in my mail that I won.   It was a packet of things to use making cards from Ginny Maxam at Maxam Made.  Ginny makes such beautiful cards.  I got acquainted with her on the group she started on on Facebook named Christian Card Makers.  This is a wonderful group and I have learned many things from them.  Check them out.

My thought for the week is...

“Friends” even among true Christians come and go and are usually easily offended.   But "…there is a Friend that sticketh closer than a brother," Proverbs 18:24.  As long as He is there for us, we have little to worry about!  So our "friends" may disappoint us and turn against us. They may leave us when we need them the most.  They may not understand us or even care about what we need but we have a FRIEND who never leaves us.  

He said, "Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness."  Isaiah 41:10


May you feel His presence with you this coming week.

  3. Ah another lovely card and great verse. .. love the thought too and will add to it "Great peace have they which love Thy law and nothing shall offend them. "
    Psalm119 it reminds us ro be truly humble. It is only pride that allows offence at another. Christlike humility does not walk that path. So let's keep our eye's on Him not others.. amen.. by His grace.
