Desires of My Heart Devotional Book and Scripture Necklace Giveaway

October 6, 2011

We want things to go our way. In our time. According to our desires.
"Delight yourself in the Lord, and He shall give you [...]

Why My Husband Rocks (and Union 28 Giveaway)

September 12, 2011

*Giveaway has now ended*
A few years ago, I remember seeing one of my dear friends in the cutest shirt. It said:
"I love skinny guys with glasses" and it had a stick drawing of a skinny guy wearing (what else?) glasses.

Sometimes I end up rummaging through past posts for one reason or another, and a post that I have written (and forgotten about) will jump out at me and I am freshly inspired by whatever it was that spurred me on to write the post in the first place.

Christ in My Kitchen

May 10, 2011

Written by Sharon Kaufman, Contributing Writer
A Divine Calling
Recently, while junking at my favorite thrift store, I found a kitchen blessing written on an old wall hanging. (Oh...the joys of thrifting!) I did edit it a little and added the last few verses. There was no name to identify its author.

January 25, 2011

"She does him good... all the days of her life."
Continued from yesterday's post...
But What if My Husband Objects?
