From the East to the West

Psalm 103:8-12

New Living Translation (NLT)

⁸ 

The Lord is compassionate and merciful,

    slow to get angry and filled with unfailing love.

⁹ 

He will not constantly accuse us,

    nor remain angry forever.

¹⁰ 

He does not punish us for all our sins;

    he does not deal harshly with us, as we deserve.

¹¹ 

For his unfailing love toward those who fear him

    is as great as the height of the heavens above the earth.

¹² 

He has removed our sins as far from us

    as the east is from the west.

Hazelnut Candle in a Teapot

Fall is here!! I love this time of year! 

 Our Pilgrims I purchased years back at a Home Interior Party, I miss Home Interior decorating parties. The Holly Hobby Turkey was a gift my sister gave me

Living in Florida our trees do not change colors like they do up north in the fall so to enjoy the fall colors we put cling on leaves on our windows =)

A few years back while we were visiting with my sister-in-law in Pensacola I collected pine cones from her yard, she was happy to have the pine cones picked up and I was happy to be able to bring them home with me =)   I painted some of the pine cones with white paint and made some bird feeders with some others but the bird feeders became squirrel feeders ... our squirrel's are little stinkers.. we have one we call Gus Gus ... he is a big boy

This is a photo of Gus Gus, he brings his food on our patio to eat it.

Verse for today is found in Numbers =)

Numbers 6:24-26

‘May the Lord bless you
    and protect you. May the Lord smile on you and be gracious to you. May the Lord show you his favor and give you his peace.’

Tea for Two with Doris Day

 Today was a fun day, we got up early, went out visiting family then did some shopping and then back home again to finish up some chores.  I was doing laundry and watching Tea for Two with Doris Day!  I love Doris Day and I have watched most of her movies two to three times but this is the first time I think I have seen Tea for Two from start to finish. There really was only one scene where they were actually serving tea... I was able to capture it :) .This is a sweet movie !

The silver tea set they used was pretty, it had a black handle.

Tea Life

These photos were on display in the Bakery on Main Street at WDW.   I love the storey's they tell ...
Tea is an important part of our day, it brings people together.. I can just imagine the conversations that took place in each photo.

 With all the change in our world I love reading Hebrews ... 

Hebrews 13:8

 Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.

Red and Gold Tea pot and words to live by

 Luke 6:31-36

New International Version (NIV)

³¹ Do to others as you would have them do to you.
³² “If you love those who love you, what credit is that to you? Even sinners love those who love them.³³ And if you do good to those who are good to you, what credit is that to you? Even sinners do that.³⁴ And if you lend to those from whom you expect repayment, what credit is that to you? Even sinners lend to sinners, expecting to be repaid in full. ³⁵ But love your enemies, do good to them, and lend to them without expecting to get anything back. Then your reward will be great, and you will be children of the Most High, because he is kind to the ungrateful and wicked. ³⁶ Be merciful, just as your Father is merciful.

Found this sweet creamer and sugar bowl set in a tea shop in Epcot

 One of my favorite Artists is Mandisa, what a blessing it was to meet her and hear her sing. Mandisa's heart for the Lord is real and true.. She has a new album out called Overcomer, Check it out when you can. 

Revelation 3:5

New King James Version (NKJV)
