Something Encouraging!

I found this very encouraging to me one day, because I wanted to just open my Bible and read, but for some reason excuses just kept coming up in my mind not to read it. If you are having trouble, read this. You might find it encouraging. On the very day I was having Bible trouble, this email was up in my inbox!

 When you carry a Bible, the devil gets a headache. When you open it, he collapses. When he see's you reading it, he faints. When he see's you living it, he flees. And just when you're about to re-post this, he'll try to discourage you. I just defeated him! Copy & paste this if you're in God's Army!


If you are in God's Army, you can copy this from this blog and paste it in your emails or your own blog. If you don't have one of these then don't worry, you can write it down too and put it up on a wall or keep it where you can always see it.

Love

Valentines Day is coming up, which we all know that it is a day of love. Valentines Day though, isn't the only day we should love our family, friends and even our enemies. We should love all year long, not only on Valentines Day. 1 Corinthians 13:4-8 says:
Love is patient; love is kind.
Love does not envy; is not boastful;
does not act improperly;
is not selfish;
is not provoked; does not keep a record of wrongs;
finds no joy in unrighteousness ,
but rejoices in the truth;
bears all things,
believes all things,
hopes all things,
endures all things.

Love never ends.
But as for prophecies,
they will come to an end;
as for languages, they will cease;
as for knowledge, it will come to an end. 

You can print this and put on a Valentines card that you give to your friends or family!

Here is a game you can play that goes with the verse:

Instructions:
Write the words in alphabetical order on the lines below the words.
Patient
Kind
Envy
Boastful
Improperly
Selfish
Provoked
Unrighteousness
Truth
Believes
Hopes
Endures

The LORD's prayer

Matthew 6:9-13

   Our Father in heaven, may your name be honored. May your kingdom come. May what you want to happen be done on earthas it is done in heaven. Give us today our daily bread. Forgive us our sins, just as we also have forgiven those who sin against us. Keep us from falling into sin when we are tempted. Save us frome the evil one.

HOMELESS MONEY REALLY NEEDED!!!!!

Cayli is trying very hard to raise money for the homeless. Her goal is to reach $100.00 or more for the homeless, but she won't be able to make that money without your help. Whoever is looking at this post right now, do you think you can spread the post to the people who are around you? To let Cayli know that you want to donate money or buy a pot holder (below) for the homeless, please leave a comment. Make sure you include your name and email address. If you don't want anybody seeing your email address in your comment, then let Cayli know at the end of your comment. Cayli or Julianna can quickly erase that comment. Thank you!

Here's a game that will keep you intertained! Look at the first number and then find it in the "Key." Write the letter next to the = sign on the line underneath that number.

Pot holders for sell!

These are embordered pot holders. They are very beautiful, and will make your kitchen look bright and cheerful! Cayli is selling them for $5.00 to earn more money to feed the homeless. Right now, there are only two designs you can choose from. There is a dolphin one with 3 dolphins shaped into a heart. You can choose to add on your dolphin pot holder if you want the word "Jesus" embordered on the bottom of the dolphins or not. Or you can have the pot holder that is shown in the picture (above). It is a deer with a flower above it. You can also choose if you want the flower above the deer or not. Also, you can change the color of the button on the top corner.
