Last Friday evening the ladies of Hope Bible Church met together for a "social."
It was beautifully done with candles 🕯 and flowers 🎕 on the tables,
Greek roll-up sandwiches, salads, and homemade goodies for dessert.
All the ladies brought a gift 🎁,
one of their very favorite things,
beautifully wrapped and laid out on the steps at the front of the church.
We could choose whichever gift we wanted.
It was such a special time,
a way to get to know the newest ladies a little better.
I brought a bouquet of my favorite roses and a bar of my favorite body soap.
I chose as my gift some exotic hot chocolate.
So much fun ~
so good to spend time with my sisters in Christ.
I was watching the sun flood my favorite place in the house this afternoon.
It took my breath away.
That's my spot early in the morning before the sun comes up.
It's quiet and still, with no distractions.
I read and study God's Word there before the day gets going.
I get recharged to meet the new challenges.
I search for what God has for me to know.
Lucy gave me this miniature plant last year.
It doesn't grow and spread out,
but it produces beautiful little roses.
It sits by my nighttime chair where I read and sometimes watch a home improvement show.
This plant is one of my favorite things.
because it gives and gives and doesn't require much care.
Find beauty.
It is all around us.
Make beauty in your home.
Share beauty with others.
Share Jesus.
He is beautiful.
