Praise Be to the Lord of Lords!

The "open house" is over and done for another year and was quite a success! Not monitarily but the ladies that came seemed to enjoy welcoming in the Christmas season , all enjoyed the food & I enjoyed all of them. I even got to meet four or five ladies that live in our subdivision and that was delightful! This Saturday was not as busy as the first Saturday but there was someone here all day long but by 4:00 I was ready to crash! I, however, tore down all the tables and put the "leftovers" in a box for a later date of deciding what to do with it. I did sell six pieces of my jewelry that I would not have sold otherwise so we were pleased with that and thanking the Lord for a little "extra" to go towards my honey and I getting new glasses. He lost his in the burn pile a couple of months ago and my eyes have certainly changed since starting to bead.

I have some corrections that I must make.... I had told you that I loved a new blog called "The Quill House" wrong.... it is called "The Quill Cottage.blogspot.com". So sorry for that error. I have bookmarked it and never thought to look. Please check her out!!! She has such lovely things to say, especially todays. The drawings at the top of the page were done by Dawn at "The Feathered Nest.blogspot.com". Aren't they PRECIOUS? She has an article in there about my friend, Lynn from Lynnslovelies.blogspot.com and she is correct about the beautiful work that Lynn does. I wanted to purchase one of any one of the lovely work she brought a week ago but we are like everyone else, BROKE and watching our pennies.
I guess I am a little sad that this Christmas will be very very sparse but then I get to thinking that "WE", the worldin general, has lost track of what Christmas is all about and we need to get back on track! I am looking for reasons to praise the Lord for His gifts toward me (which is not hard once I open my eyes). The scripture that comes back again and again, is such comfort: "BE STILL AND KNOW THAT I AM GOD" Why do I worry so when He has already seen the future and KNOWS He will provide and see me through any thing, anything, anything! Praise be to my Lord!
