The lines have fallen to me in pleasant places; Indeed, my heritage is beautiful to me. ~ Psalm 16:6 nasb

Tea Talk -- Praise the Lord



Welcome to my home!
Sit and share a cup of tea with me as we encourage each other in the Lord.
To participate, click on Ruth's button above.


I'm having...Earl Grey tea sweetened with raw honey.  Perfect in the afternoon!  Below is an image of my favorite tea mug, which I'm no longer using.  I posted its fate here; for now, I'm enjoying being able to see it whole and useful with this image taken before its demise.


I'm feeling...It's funny, I don't usually think about how I feel.  I always have to pause and think about what to share here.  :)  Happy or sad, healthy or sick, peaceful or overwhelmed?  I feel fine, though I am getting a cold, I think, with fighting a headache and general lethargy which I know is not laziness.

On my mind...Oh, lots of things to do this week.  Doctor appointment today (nothing serious), "date" with my parents tomorrow (they invited me to a Home & Garden show!), "fashion show" at Christopher & Banks on Saturday (I get to "model" two outfits in the store).  A busy end-of-week but hopefully a peaceful weekend to rest, recuperate, and accomplish some goals for school and cleaning.

I leave you with...Psalm 117.  Yes, the whole Psalm.  (It's only two verses.)  My head isn't thinking clearly enough to post anything "deep," but these two verses are deep enough!

Praise the LORD, all nations;
Laud Him, all peoples!
For His lovingkindness is great toward us,
And the truth of the LORD is everlasting.
Praise the Lord!
Psalm 117:1-2 nasb

Praise Him; His truth stands forever.  He is my Rock.

Back to life,
Christine

  1. I am sorry about the demise of such a beautiful mug! But I am glad that you have pictures of it for posterity's sake.

    I chuckled a bit when I read your words on the I'm feeling' part...coming from someone that had lived with her emotions so at hand...it is good to know that you don't have to focus on them overly much.

    Enjoy your time with your parents, and the time when you will be modeling pretty clothes. It is always fun to put on clothes that make you feel feminine and lovely.

    Thank you for the verse and for sharing...

  2. Home and Garden show sounds so much fun.

    That is such a lovely mug. It's great that you have a souvenir photo of it.

    Thank you, Christine for the boost on what I'm going thru right now. I appreciate it a lot.

  4. How exciting it must be to be a model in a fashion show! I also love home and garden shows -get so many ideas - but I have to be on my guard that I just go to enjoy and not come home discontent.

    Have a happy day.

  6. Ohhh I miss you and have to catch up with you and all what you have blogged about. I have been in a survival state and emotions are high. So, then I tend to draw back and knit. I think I am doing somewhat better. I have to remember to take my vitamins and fish oil. I do so much better when I do. [0=
