I was just having a general thought on things. We want to try and see the best in all things and in all people. Who doesn’t?
We want to believe that no matter what people are good and don’t mean harm, but I can’t help but wonder in the process, can we get too hopeful that instead of seeing sin for sin, or life for life, we end up becoming too blind to the reality of what is before us.

The trouble with nearly everybody who prays is that he says “Amen” and runs away before God has a chance to reply. Listening to God is far more important than giving Him your ideas.-Frank Laubach

This cute little guy isn’t my own dog per se, but I couldn’t resist sharing the video when I came across it.As you know, I have two dachshunds that I lovingly call “Double Trouble”.
I can’t help it. I think they tag team.I was just surfing through the net and I came across this video and it was just too cute.
Okay….I shouldn’t be writing blogs late at night, but the kids are sleeping, the dogs are currently competing in synchronize sleeping and apparently winning and hubby is doing hubby things (translation: playing an online game), so I had some free time.
That and it gives me an excuse to snack on some oreos. I know. I know. Unfortunately we are out of m&m’s at the moment and rather than panic, I chose to substitute something “healthier”-the oreos.
I wish I could say that, the oreos, served the cxraving, but it didn’t because what I really wanted more than anything wasn’t a subsitute but m&m’s.
Come join Iris’s “Thankful Thursdays” every Thursday to share your praises of what God has done for you in your life.
Then I will go to the altar of God,
to God my exceeding joy,
and I will praise you with the lyre,
O God, my God.
—Psalm 43:4Psalm 43:4 English: American Standard Version (1901) - ASV 4 Then will I go unto the altar of God, Unto God my exceeding joy; And upon the harp will I praise thee, O God, my God.
Even in the darkest days, it seems difficult sometimes to lift ones head up and lift up ones arms in praise and glory to our Heavenly Father, but you have to admit….who needs coffee when after a time of coming together in fellowship, be it in person, or in heart, that singing songs of thankfullness and praise to Our Heavenly Father is the best energizer??
*Updated* Ack..my computer is a bit sticky tonight so it didn’t add the “Friendship Award” that I thought was placed on this post as well”.*
My cheeks are blushing! Peggy over at “Mazes, Messes, Miracles….Amazing Grace” just wrote an absolute beautiful and heart felt post and in it, shared the “Sharing the Love” with Sunflower Faith.
Sharing the Love Award
Peggy, thank you dear sister, but more than anything, thank you dear Sister for your open faith and love for Jesus Christ!!
I just couldn’t understand what was so thrilling about the ride. When something is measured in “stories” and goes faster than I normally would drive on any given day, terrifying seem more appropriate than thrilling, but my husband insisted that it would be “fun”, “exciting”, and “I wouldn’t regret it”.
As I heard those words, my brain began processing the meaning of the words. “Fun” became “Fear”.
“Exciting” meant “Screaming”.
“I wouldn’t regret it” meant “I wouldn’t regret sticking my nails five inches into his skin, all the while screaming for rescue while trying to process quickly at the same time how they were going to pry my hands off my husband and not in a good way”.

I came across this tip while trying to find not only an effective (and sanity saving way) to combat pets soiling in the home but to help encourage (and discourage) my young puppy from going in the house while housebreaking him at the same time.
White Vinegar. Water. Spray bottle.
Natural.Simple.Cheap.Works.
I have to add that it helps to use this along with anything that breaks down enzymes as well but as a stand alone product, white vinegar mixed with water in a spray bottle works really well in diffusing areas that the puppy has decided to go at.
I remember a time that I had meatloaf, but because I didn’t have the right ingredients, I tried to substitute the ingredients instead and as well as the meatloaf tasted, it could have tasted better, had I not only used the right ingredients that was called for but also followed the directions exactly instead of trying to do it on my own.In a way, following the Christian faith is the same way.
We run into a danger of living a false belief, when trying to adapt God to what we think He is and what we think it should be when in reality, we are mixing in the ingredients for a distorted view of Christianity.
If you like a simple way to share God's words with other, check out the,"Pocket Testament League" for copies of the Gospel of John that fits easily in your purse, diaper bag or even your back pocket.
You never know when an opportunity comes up for you to share God's word with another.
