paintin the kitchen

about 2 months ago, I bought an AWESOME white framed chalk board for my house.

I've decided I want to hang it in the kitchen behind my kitchen table.

I can't hang it in there yet.

The walls are white.

White on White... yuck.

so, I have to paint my kitchen!!

Here are a few of my color ideas.

I adore these blues.

I'm so excited!!!

Hope it turns out ok!

Have a great Friday night!

remember when

i loved the time of life when wade and i got engaged.

it was the happiest time in my life.

having the man of my dreams get down on one knee and ask me to marry him was, by far, the most beautiful moment of my life.

just him, wanting ME, to be... his.

He has made me unbelievably happy ever since.

The Soul Killer

The Soul Killer

When people sin, they earn what sin pays--death

Romans 6:23

Sin does to a life what shears do to a flower.  A cut at the stem separates a flower from the source of life.  Initially the flower is attractive, still colorful and strong.  But watch that flower over a period of time, and the leaves will wilt and the petals will drop.  No matter what you do, the flower will never live again.  Surround it with water.  Stick the stem in soil.  Baptize it with fertilizer.  Glue the flower back on the stem.  Do what you wish.  The flower is dead......

A dead soul has no life.

Cut off from God, the soul withers and dies.  The consequence of sin is not a bad day or a bad mood but a dead soul.  The sign of a dead soul is clear:

poisoned lips and cursing mouths

feet that lead to violence

and eyes that don't see God....

The finished work of sin is to kill the soul.
