pictuers of our spring so far

Well I managed to get some pictures on here this time. It was painful and slow process, but here we are. This is some of our spring happenings so far, and of the cold frame my husband built for me! We have plants coming up n there already! 

The snow keeps going down a little more each day!

spring time

    Tis' spring time here, though at this point in my neck of the woods it still looks quite wintry.
   But we are getting there!  Day by day there is less and less snow in our yard, drive way, and garden area. 
 The temps are nice and the kids have been enjoying playing out side lots. They have the trampolines set up.  Also they love to go out for a pic-nic!


 My husband built me a cold frame, and now I have a bunch of my plants started in there. I started stuff like tomatoes, cabbage, broccoli, cauliflower, okra,  water melons, and pumpkins.  So lots different fun things.





  We will have our of plants that we will be planting arriving in early May, our raspberries, asparagus, 2 plum trees, and some flower bulbs.  Plus our regular planting.


 Then we have our 200 chicks due in May 1st. We raise those for meat chickens. So you know what we will be doing come fall, and what will our freezer. But they are not all for us. I raise and butcher for others too.


  Nice to be back from our month long trip to Texas. Though it was very nice to visit with friends and family again after being away for 2 years. Plus we went to Tennessee too, and got see wonderful friends there as well. Would have had more fun, had I not been down with allergies while there. Over all though was good.  But like I said nice to be back, and settled in here again.
  Continuing school, doing the spring things, and preparing for baby!!  Our sweet number 7 baby is due May 4th. So coming soon!!!!!




  I took pictures of all our spring happenings so far, and have tried to post some , but no luck for  some reason.  When I can , I will post pictures.

 When you visit the website, click on herbs for women, and then search for the Gentle Birth Product. That info I copy and pasted is found where you would order the product, and they also had some testimonies of moms who used and loved it.

   I  just heard about the product my self.  A friend gave me the following book, and at  the back of it I came across several testimonies with the Gentle Birth Formula. I was supper excited to come across them!!  I have had quite rough labours with aleast 5 of my 6, and I was so dreading another like labour and delivery. I had been praying, and praying, for a easier and shorter labour. And then a friend gave me this book, and I came across this product!!  To me it is like an answer to pray!!

    I have just ordered mine and got it today.  It does say to use it in the last 5 weeks of pregnancy, and I am now down to 4 weeks.  ( due date May 4th )From the testimonies I read though , that is still not to late  for great results.  So I am supper excited about it!! I will certainly share my experience have the delivery!  I did not order mine at that site  though because I needed mine very fast and it would of took longer coming from the States. So I found mine at a local health food store. Well a store 3 hours away, so  I had it sent to me.

 If you know pregnant moms who may be intrested in this product feel free to share my blog post!!

A Heart For God

My newest read is a book called, A Heart For God, written by John Coblentz.
  And I am thoroughly enjoying it!
   
  Here is a little about the book that is written on the back cover.




" The heart is a marvelous thing."
 " It is created by God, for God. It has longings and desires and out of those, man responds. Our heart was designed to  worship God.
  However, sin damages our hearts, deadens our conscience, darkens our understanding and mind and warps our desires. It enslaves the will, clouds our judgement and alienates us from God.
    Then there is cleansing. Through repentance, confession, acquaintance and fellowship with God, the heart is changed and recreated into the likeness of Him who loved and died for us. Now we have a new and clean heart with new desires and longings. One that is changed into the same image from glory to glory even as by the Spirit of the Lord. Through having a love for Truth and experiencing God's love  in our hearts we can have A Heart For God."


 "This book is written for those who love light and are willing to expose their hearts to God and man. It is written on a scriptural basis with clear outlines with an easy reading style. The reader will be challenged, inspired, instructed, and changed into a vessel that is fit to bring glory and honor to Christ's kingdom."




   A heart after God's own heart, and a vessel fit to bring God glory, is what I so long for in my life.
 How about you?
 In Him,
Mae

Amazing Love

   I absolutely love this song!!


                                  Amazing Love
                               I'm forgiven because You were forsaken,
                               I'm accepted, You were condemned.
                               I am alive and well, Your spirit is within me,
                               Because You died and rose again.


                                 ( Chorus)
                               Amazing love,
                               How can it be?
                               That you my King would die for me?
                               Amazing love,
                               I know it's true.
                                It's my joy to honour You,
                                In all I do, I honour You.


     What beautiful words!
   It's all because of what Jesus did on the cross for us that we have life! He was forsaken, and we were forgiven!  He was condemned , we were accepted!!  So very precious!! What amazing love!




  And the last lines of the chorus, can not just be said lightly. To really sing that song in true devotion and commitment to God, we must really mean what we say. If it is not our  joy to honour Him in all that we do, then we really must make that true in our lives.  Because it should be our greatest joy to serve and honour Him!!
  And yes, EVERYTHING we do should be HONOURING to Him. If we truly love Him, we will not have any desire to do anything that is not honouring to God.


  Hope you enjoy this song as I do.   And may each one of us boldly say with our whole hearts , " It is my joy to honour You God. In all I do I honour You!"


 In Him,
Mae
