Purpose of My Blog

Hi everyone! My daughter, Sarah, has recently introduced me to the Blog world. I am excited about meeting you all. The purpose of my blog is to encourage others in their relationship with the LORD and to keep in touch with friends. I believe whether young or old , we all need encouragement!
When I was a young believer I attended a Women's Retreat and heard the most wonderful message on the book of Ruth. This was the first time that the verse in Ruth 2:16..."And let fall also some of the handfuls of purpose for her, and leave them, that she may glean them, and rebuke her not," spoke to my heart in a special way. I have been saved now for 20 years and have seen how God continually sends "Handfuls of Purpose" to me for each season of life I am going through. I have learned that there is a lesson in all things if we are looking for it. The LORD is intimately acquainted with each one of us and desires for us to walk with Him more closely day by day. It is through these lessons that God draws us nearer.

  3. I would like to welcome you to 'blog land'. I came across your name when I was looking at Miss Jen's yoyo's and poppy seed bread over at Blessed Femina.

    May the Lord use your blog for His purposes and glory.

    Welcome,
    Mrs. Teapot
