verse to reflect on...

When I was doing my garage sale yesterday, Larry was on his way out to the meetings and he
asked us (Martha, Cynthia and I) if we were ready for something to think about/on for the day.  We said sure!  He started, Worry...(Martha is sitting on my right and Cynthia on my left), they both turned and looked at me - we had just been discussing worries, stress and my comment on needing more patience and more faith...Larry says, "what?" so I had to fill him in, his topic was right in line with our conversation already for the day.  

Worry is making your problems bigger than God's promises. Faith is putting it all in God's hands. -Larry Balderson

He commented on Psalms 46:1, 10...Be Still means to "be at rest, lay your hands down".

another garage sale!

So, if you remember, I did a garage sale two weeks ago.  Everyone donated their goods to my cause in the end of it and all this was setup Friday & Saturday for another sale at Bev's house.  I did the sale along with Bev, Martha and Cynthia.  It was very slow...not lots of customers, but in spite of all that, we really did well!  We did $925 of which I made $161 (after spending $12.75)!  So between my last sale, the things I have sold betwee on Craigs List, and then this weekend's sale, I have met my goal to make enough to pay my house payment!  YAH!!!  I contemplated doing another sale, but decided I am done with this for the remainder of this year.  We all donated all the leftover stuff to Milka as she does flea market sales.

I want to thank everyone for their donated items and the Lord for knowing my need and seeing to it that I met it!
