Motivation for May Part Three-Psalm 46:10 "Trust" A Few Quotes

Image
Here are a few quotes related to this months topic "Once I knew only darkness and stillness... my life was without past or future... but a little word from the fingers of another fell into my hand that clutched at emptiness,  and my heart leaped to the rapture of living." Helen Keller "I have complete confidence that God is able to take care of any situation and provide an answer to any question or problem - He has all the resources of the universe to draw upon in helping each one of us through any type of crisis if we will trust Him."  Charles Stanley "Faith at its heart is about trust. It's one thing to believe in God; it's quite something else to trust him with our lives. We all want deeper relationships built on trust."  Rick Perry  God Bless you on this Journey KathieyV

Places-Piedmont Farm Tour 2019 "Prodigal Farm"

Image
I love the farm tours they have in this area of the country.  One of the big ones is the Piedmont Farm Tour.  I was only able to visit one farm this year, and that was Prodigal Farm . Prodigal Farm is a goat farm.  They produce cheeses, breads, and they also sell goat meat. Here is a photo tour of my experience.  I now know that school buses can be recycled.  They make very nice homes for the goats. We came across a forest of goats... We enjoyed the company of the beautiful goats. Me Erica Josh After meeting the goats we wandered around a bit... We had a lovely day on the farm.  I hope to visit more farms on the next tour. Happy Adventures KathieyV

Motivation For May Part 2-Trust Even When God Says No Psalm 46:10

Image
Does God answer all of our prayers?  I think he does, but we may not always get the answer we want.  I believe sometimes He says "yes" to our request, sometimes "no," and at other times the answer may be "not today." I like this quote by CS Lewis.. "We are not necessarily doubting that God will do the best for us;  we are wondering how painful the best will turn out to be." The list of entirely reasonable requests sent up to God has no limit.  We may be asking for a soulmate; we may be praying for a positive outcome for our friends and family,  we may be looking for the perfect job, for financial security.  Why wouldn't God say yes to all of these requests?  After all, we have given our lives to Him, we have put our trust in His love for us.  Why would He say no to something that would make everyone's life easier, better? The Silent Treatment There are many ways to react when God, our father says "no."  I will

Places and Events-Oakwood Tea and Garden Tour

Image
I saw on one of my Meetup groups that they were going to a tea and garden tour in Raleigh NC as I was beginning to sign up for the tour I soon realized that it was sold out.  Oh well, I thought, maybe next year.  About a week before the event I was notified by the group that there was a ticket available so I jumped at the chance to attend. Below is a quote from their website. Experience A Traditional Victorian Tea And   Guided Tour Of Historic Oakwood Gardens The tea was held at the Tucker House in Raleigh's Historic Oakwood Neighborhood. Notice all the ladies with hats on the porch. All I own are baseball hats, if I go again I may invest in a southern style ladies hat. The house was built in 1914. Time for tea... I am not a big tea drinker but this tea was wonderful.  It was a mellow flavor and I did not even add cream and sugar.  The tea was provided by Tin Roof Teas and my favorite was the Blueberry Maple Black Tea. Everything was delicious! Th
