Do not disturb!

      That's what Joyce was wearing around her neck today. It was so funny! She cracks me up sometimes, but I like the visuals. How true, that so much of the time we go around with a do not disturb sign on us. We may not even realize we have one on, but other people can see it. It shows when we do not smile at others, or take time to assist someone in a small way. Many Christians go about their day, too busy, not wanting to be disturbed because what they have to do is important. The most important thing that Jesus wants us to do is love God, then love our neighbor as we love ourselves. Our neighbor is anyone God puts in our path to help. Remember the good Samaritan and the Golden Rule? If we as Christians would only follow these two examples, the whole world would be changed! Pray and ask God who you can assist today. It may be a small thing to you but the other person might see it as a miracle. A smile would be nice, even if you have to fake it. Pretty soon though, it will come natural.

   I mentioned the other day that I am juicing again. I believe that juicing is going to make a difference in my well being. The first glass tasted terrible, then I remembered the apple cider in the freezer, so I thawed it and am using it as the liquid in my juice. The juice tastes so sweet that I may have to water it down a little. My nieces have been here some this week so I have a couple pics. Hubby brought in some ducks. They are so cute! As I write this, the sun is trying to shine and feels so good. I might even get to work in the garden, if it warms up. Have a great weekend!

I just got up!

Giving her Mom the "Look"

Can you see my two front teeth?

I used some of each of these in my juice.

The juice.

I think this one is a male.

Baby ducks and clucks.

I hope the ducks are male and female!

Do you remember the "Golden Rule"?

      It says to do unto others as you would have them do unto you, NOT, do to others what they do to you! Joyce has been teaching on loving others this week. If you don't watch her, you are missing a treat! She is funny at times, and very serious at others. I really am ministered to by her teaching, and try to retain it long enough to share it with you. It's so easy to get caught up in our own four walls and say my four, no more. But, that's not what God wants us to do. He wants us to share our love and compassion with others. They may be family, friends, or strangers. If you've found yourself to be bored, depressed, or discontent lately, examine and see if your are reaching out to others. If you are not; doing something , even small, can really help you feel better! Now some people are out of balance in helping others to the point that they are burned out. There has to be balance in everything. God talks about balance in the Bible. Pray and ask the Lord if there is some specific thing that He wants you to do or give to someone today. I dare you to obey God and receive a special blessing!
       At this time, I don't have any new pics to share with you. I've made granola in my dehydrator that I had to throw out because it had too much cinnamon. I also made homemade bread and cooked a small pot of pinto beans. I also made country fried steak, which is also delicious! I've also been juicing again because I've read where juicing can bring your immune system into balance, which can reverse allergies. I'm tired of being allergic to everything! God is showing me little by little how to help myself, and I am so grateful to Him for doing so!
