A Special Tea Time Tuesday Tomorrow!

Good morning sweet bloggy friends~ I hope you all had a wonderful weekend!




Tomorrow is a special Tea Time Tuesday and I'm inviting you to stop by and join me or even participate if you like. Those of you who plan on participating, I would love to hear from you as soon as possible today because I am having company tomorrow. I won't be at the computer until later in the day tomorrow, so if you have plans to participate, please let me know and I'll add your link to my post which is all set to go later.

If you're participating for the first time, all you need to do is share a piece of china, a favourite teacup, or tea pot. A scripture verse, poem, or short story would be very much appreciated as well but not necessary. Either Tea Time button to the right on my sidebar is available for your use if you wish.

Have a beautiful day everyone!

Spiritual Sundays

Hello friends~ Thank you for stopping by for my Spiritual Sundays post. Once again I thank Ginger and Charlotte for hosting. Please click on the link to go visit them and all the other participants. http://bloggerspirit.blogspot.com/



My post today will be short and sweet because I have been under the weather all week.
I will likely be slow in getting around to my visits, depending on how I'm feeling, so please be patient with me!

This is one of my hubby's favourite scripture verses. "......He who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus." Philippians 1:6

When we become born again, God's Spirit comes to reside within us and we become His child.

He begins to change our hearts by planting us in His garden. He tends to us in that garden by pruning us and watering us with His Word. He is always with us because He is the Gardener, and He promises never to leave us.

In the beginning, we are like a tiny rosebud with our petals folded tightly together. But in time, with the care only the Gardener can give us, we open up into a beautiful full blown rose.
Once we are in full bloom, we ought to leave a sweet fragrance wherever we go. It is this sweet fragrance which brings glory to Him.

It is God's desire to make all things beautiful, and that includes you and me!
Note: Please join me on Tuesday for Tea Time Tuesday.
