Are You Ready To Meet Jesus?

I have been contemplating lately that there are things in my life that have not been fulfilled yet. The quiet time in my life and when Holy Spirit gently speaks to my heart thing that are to come forth in my life. Some I have seen come to fruition and there are those that I am still waiting for to come forth in my life. It is in these moments that one cannot give up hope but stand on the promises God spoke to your heart. Wait with anticipation for you never know when they will suddenly appear in your life and manifest. I serve an awesome God that never leaves me nor forsakes me.

Is that your testimony also? Have you found Him to be faithful, true and full of love? He loves you so very much that His very son, Jesus, left the splendors of heaven and came to this earth as a baby. He chose to come to the earth, walk the earth and share the love of His Father with all. He also chose to die a cruel, cruel death and suffer so you may live with Him in heaven for all eternity. I do not know of anyone else that would do that for me, do you? Just think of the magnitude of this, He died so you could live forever in heaven and not live in the darkness of hell for all eternity. To live with Him in heaven and not live with pain and suffering in hell for all eternity. That is LOVE to the fullest degree.

Do you want to know this peace and assurance of where you will spend eternity? It is so simple that even a child can comprehend this. Just ask Jesus to forgive your sins and wash you clean with the blood He shed at Calvary. His blood was shed so you could live in freedom from the sins that bound you up for all these years. In an instant He can forgive you and it costs you absolutely nothing for this incredible give of Love. If you are sincere and want to be forgiven then let me lead you in a prayer that will bless you not just today but for all eternity. Say this...Lord Jesus I am a sinner, please forgive my sins and cleanse me. I believe that you were born of the Virgin Mary, you came to this earth and showed us the love of The Father and blessed us with many miracles. You chose to take on the sins of the world and die on the cross so I could have eternal life with you in heaven. I thank you for this great sacrifice so I do not have to live without you for all eternity. Lord Jesus come into my heart, be the Lord of my life and teach me your ways. I look with anticipation each day to see what you will do in my life to bring glory to your Father in heaven. I am so blessed that I chose this very day to ask forgiveness of my sins and to invite you into my heart and life. Teach me the way I am to go, the people I will connect with and guide me in my everyday events in my life. I do not want to miss anything you have for me to fulfill in my very life. I love You,  I trust You, I believe You, I adore You. Thank you for the opportunity to live with you forever. Thank you for snatching me from the jaws of hell and I am blessed to be a part of your family now. Amen.

The strongest piece of advice I can share with you right now is to let Holy Spirit guide you to a bible based, bible teaching church along with reading the bible. Start with the new Testament and read 1 chapter a day and I can guarantee you that you will get to know Jesus with this simple daily act. Trust in Him and He will direct your path and be blessed in this. Welcome to the family of God. Holy Spirit I pray now that you will seal the very words that were spoken into the hearts of those that will pray this prayer of salvation. Amen.

ZUCCHINI SOUP Delicious Recipe

ZUCCHINI SOUP

2 tablespoons olive oil
1 clove chopped garlic
1 medium chopped onion
3-15oz. cans ( 48oz. total) 
​ chicken broth or vegetable broth​
3 tablespoons, uncooked rice
1 1/2 cups grated zucchini
1 egg
3 tablespoons Parmesan cheese
Saute garlic and onion in oil until soft, add broth & rice, bring to boil for 10 minutes add zucchini, simmer for 15 minutes and add beaten egg, cheese and chopped parsley
Stir, remove from heat and serve

Great soup recipe to try. I think it tastes better made with home made chicken stock. I also take the carrots I use when making homemade stock and add to this soup. I also experimented with taking an ear of corn and cut off the kernels of corn from the ear of corn and added it to the soup. My Mother likes to take the chicken used in making homemade chicken stock and shreds it into the soup. I like to take the chicken breast I use to make the soup stock and make chicken salad with it once the chicken is cooled. You can also add a little bit more rice to thicken it but I caution you to not add a lot more for it will absorb the broth and make it too thick.  This is a tried and true recipe that has been made for many years by one of my Mother's friends. My Mother does like to add extra zucchini when she makes the soup.

I Bought This David Crowder CD For The Song, "Forgiven," But This Is The Song I Really Love...

It always amazes me how Holy Spirit will guide me to purchase a Christian worship/praise cd for a song I heard on the radio. I then go through the cd only to be surprised that the reason the cd was purchased was to bless me with a song tucked away on that very cd. That is the case in this instance. I bought the cd for the song, "Forgiven" but in reality the song that I find myself playing the most on the cd is "Run Devil Run." Great song, view both and see if you concur with my finding. Remember, Jesus loves you and He died just for you so you can be with Him in heaven.  If you choose Jesus you are choosing life forever. Ultimately, the choice is truly yours and only YOU can make that choice.

Bargain Hunt Retail Stores, A Few Thoughts In Regard To The Stores

I discovered shopping at Bargain Hunt and thoroughly use to enjoy the hunt for bargains, hence the store name. I have noticed some changes and I believe the changes are causing my hunt for bargains to diminish. Let me further explain... I use to love the fact that when you shopped at one of the retail stores they were not neatly organized with the display of the merchandise. I use to love looking under a pile of items to find a great bargain hidden, just for me and others to find. They changed the way they display merchandise, now stores are neatly organized. Part of the charm was the disorganization. You would find an item that was a great deal hidden in the disorganized display of items.
They now bring in items from Amazon Liquidations. I feel that that merchandise is not as appealing compared to when they use to buy out merchandise from HSN. I know that a retail store should display merchandise in an orderly manner, but I find it just doesn't work or me at this particular retail store. I believe they are opening more stores and that seems to deplete the amount of merchandise stores use to carry. There are times that I go into a store and it looks much more sparse than when they carried more merchandise prior to new Bargain Hunt stores opening.
These are my thoughts and I wanted to share them, in the event management may come across this blog and view it. Please don't become too big with multiple stores that would then take away an abundance of merchandise. Please go back to purchasing items from HSN's warehouse, returns, etc. I am not sure of the merchandise source that was purchased from HSN, but I sure did enjoy the variety of items. I truly enjoyed when they would have a buyout of Joy Mangano's Huggable Hangers. Keep purchasing from Amazon Liquidations but bring in a variety of merchandise also.

I Stumbled On A Product At Dollar Tree That I Shared With A Few People. They Seemed To Enjoy It So I Am Sharing It With You.

I  was at a Dollar Tree store and came across a product. Since it was only $1.00 I took a chance on trying it. I then shared it with a person who shared it with others and they all liked it. Give it a try. You do have to enjoy the combination of mint and chocolate. One thing we agreed upon is that the chocolate center was a smooth consistency and just the right amount of mint flavoring. The product is by Coastal Bay Confections. The label reads, "Hard Candy Chocolate Filled Mints." I do want to let you know that the package does state that it is "partially produced with genetic engineering."
They also have a quality freshness guarantee with a toll free phone number to contact them in the event you received a product that you are not satisfied with. That is refreshing to see on the package. How many times do you get frustrated when you purchase a product and you want to contact them and there is no contact phone number? You then have to go and research to find a contact phone number. I do not always want a mailing address or an e-mail address. I guess I am old fashioned in this respect, I still want to speak to a person on the phone that can answer my question and address a concern I may have. I did notice on the package that this product is made in Argentina.
Enjoy your day today because this is the only opportunity in your lifetime that you will have the opportunity to make the most of this day. Once this day is over you cannot go back and re-live today. Share you smile with someone today. You never know, that person may be going through hard times in their life and your smile and kindness just may be the ray of sunshine they need in their life today. If you are blessed in your life then you are blessed to be a blessing to others.

I purchased this CD recently. Let me share two songs with you. I also wanted to share the song, "Closer To Your Heart" from her recent release, "The Garden." I apologize, I  was not able to find a video of that song to share with you.
