Keeping it Real...Welcome! No matter how you found this, God knew you'd be here today. May you absorb the message He has for you. In 2011 I shared through my writing, today I've learned there is more to me than just writing. I have the energy and passion to share with others. Sometimes through Facebook live and others with my blog and most importantly, I've learned my passion to cook and bake is a vessel to share my writing and live presentations, while glorifying God in the process. I just needed to let go, and follow His lead.

Do You Honor the Sabbath Day?Happy Sunday everyone! How are you on this beautiful halfway mark of April 2018? A typical response is one of "Can't wait for the rain to stop so I can rake." or "Enjoying the daily walks outside and the fresh air." BUT not this year, it seems that regardless of where you might be...snow, low temperatures, and crummy weather are dampening the majorities Spring Fever. Rather than focusing on the cold and crummy, think about all the flowers, green grass, and leaves that will seem to "just appear" one day when the sun returns. Mother Nature is enjoying a longer slumber this year but the beauty we'll see in the next couple weeks will be breath-taking. I'm sure of it. One of my favorite spots to enjoy a Spring afternoon is on our back deck, especially on Sundays or a day of rest. This had me thinking this morning, Sundays, when I was a kiddo, were a day of rest for everyone. Grocery stores were closed and if you ran out of milk, then you were out of milk until Monday. Families got together at grandma's with the extended family. No one was on a cellular device, tablet, or glued to a television. We were interacting with each other, enjoying the fresh air, and making memories. All these activities helped us to relax and sharpen our saws (recharge the exhaustion of work with activities we enjoy) on the Sabbath. Since stores weren't open and the kids' sports NEVER had games on a Sunday - no one had to choose between resting and family time or commitments. What do you think would happen if today's society honored the Sabbath and gave everyone a day off each week? A day where EVERYONE had the day off to spend with family...Is it possible? “Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy. Are you taking time to rest & recharge? |
