It's a Cozy day...!

I find myself with heavy thoughts today...Although this blog is a little venue for me to share my crafts, occasionally my thoughts & ideals get in here too!  My thoughts are caught up in the frustration of negative comments & narrow mindedness of people around me.  I wish that I could openly share & make a difference without the critical comments I hear around me!  It's hard to make a difference when all I see is people hanging on to their old ways with no need for change.  Guess this has bothered me for years & it's rearing it's ugly head again.  I've spent time journalling my thoughts, & realize that I need to move past these attitudes I am surrounded with & think positively.  We aren't supposed to spend our days daunted by others, but encouraging them instead.  I suppose I can't change anyone but myself...?! God is good & always has a plan.  Be careful how your attitude & words affect others - this is a good lesson for me, as I assess my own actions (Ephesians 4).

I need to curl up with a Hot Steamy Cup Java & yarn this afternoon!  The weather here has surprised us with bright warm sun & gentle breezes - wow - how encouraging!

This Spicy Pumpkin Cozy & a Natural Cozy were added to the shop today.  Enjoy!

Today...

Wool Yarn patiently waiting for me!

 Today was a maze of great things - Church with my family, socializing with friends, studying, watching my hubby use his God given talents, & helping my daughter through a rough time.  I don’t think I could have asked for a sweeter day full of blessings! 

Life has so many distractions with electronics, work, school, cleaning, cooking, etc. – don’t forget to take time to be with the ones you love & appreciate the privileges we are offered each day.

I'm Back!

I haven't written in this blog for 2 months...yikes! This week has proven to be a time where everything we believe in is being tested. To say that we live with much family drama is a huge understatement! Our little family of 4 is so very precious to us – a place where we find solace from a cruel world & shelter from many storms. I thank God for His promises, my little ones, a supportive Godly husband, & for friends who believe & stand for a higher calling in this world. “For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord…plans to give you hope & a future…You will seek me & find me, when you seek me with all your heart.” Jeremiah 29:11
