Matthew 6:27-30 KJV [27] Which of you by taking thought can add one cubit unto his stature? [28] And why take ye thought for raiment? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin: [29] and yet I say unto you, That even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. [30] Wherefore, if God so clothe the grass of the field, which to day is, and to morrow is cast into the oven, shall he not much more clothe you, O ye of little faith?

Sage’s Kitchen – Bread Machine Gingerbread!

Perfect for the spicy seasons coming up! Awesome with cream cheese, apple butter, or one of the many fall butter blends.

Just imagine the scent of cloves and molasses, while your bread machine does all the work!

1 cup warm milk

1 large egg, beaten

2 tablespoons molasses

2 tablespoons light brown sugar

1 tablespoon regular olive oil

3/4 teaspoon sea salt

3 & 1/4 cups bread flour

3/4 teaspoon ground ginger

1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/4 teaspoon ground cloves

2 teaspoons bread machine yeast

Spray the inside, including the paddle, of your bread machine baking pan. Add the ingredients in the order listed, being sure to make a “well” in the stuff in your pan, to hold the yeast away from the wet in the very beginning of kneading.  This step is important for bread machine success.

Set your machine to “rapid bake” “1.5 pound loaf.” 

Press start, and soon your home will smell amazing! 

These fall butters are included just as inspiration to get you started. 🍁🍂

Happy homemaking!

Chuck Swindoll’s Unbiblical Grace

My observation, so-called Christians popping up everywhere, are pefect examples of the darkness taking over. Movie stars cursing and doing nude scenes, defend their faith angrily when called out. Christian pop stars and musicians will cozy up to Catholics and New Age musicians, while evangelical pundits have the nerve to speak against Israel. They only have a form of godliness. From such, we must turn away.

When I think about what could have happened to me, if I had rejected the Gospel in 1979, I get teary eyed.  Perhaps I would have succumbed to some sinful behaviour.  Looking back, I, myself, was chief among sinners.

I am still exceedingly sinful.  After I play the piano, the thought “wow, that was good,” comes to my mind. So much pride. Thank God for His mercy, His Blood, His Justice. His Truth! 

Yes, I am a great sinner, covered by the Blood of a Great Saviour!

We must strive to avoid self pity and “why me” attitudes. If we remember that this world is not our true home, and keep our eyes on the Saviour, we will glide over the bumps, like walking on smooth water…🙏

Gardening for Beauty

New addition to our garden – “Rainbow’s End Dwarf Alberta Spruce.”  Reaching only six feet, it is pot perfect.

As a keeper at home, I strive to please my husband with everything I do. He especially loves evergreens, and is well pleased with this potted tree. I did underplant with red petunias, which provide a striking contrast.

The bright yellow tips, which are new growth, are delightful and a unique feature to this area. I highly recommend this wonderful, small tree. Hearty to -30 too!

Proverbs 31:28-30 KJV

[28] Her children arise up, and call her blessed; Her husband also, and he praiseth her.

[29] Many daughters have done virtuously, But thou excellest them all.

[30] Favour is deceitful, and beauty is vain: But a woman that feareth the LORD, she shall be praised.
