You Are Sweet

You are an ambitious person, but you temper your ambition with compassion and cooperation.
You would like to be successful, and you'd also like to help others as much as you can on the way up.

You seek balance in your life. You know you have a dominant personality, and you avoid coming on too strong.
You are more sensitive than you seem. You take criticism personally, and you are easily hurt. I'm not much for TV Dinners.

It says I'm "Patient"

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
WHAT A JOKE!!!!!!!!!

[luvie]

You Are Open
Actually looks like nothing I'd eat :)

You have great people skills and tend to be extremely popular with everyone you know.
You are modest and humble. You like to be the center of attention, but you don't show off.

You live in the present moment. You try to enjoy whatever is going on and refrain from complaining.
You rely on your friends and family for support. You can be lonely when there's no one else around.

You Are Finicky

Because all those dinners looked like frozen yark to me!

Beautiful Scars
April 18, 2012

A number of years ago I was hiking along the Salmon River and came across a grove of pine trees that had been partially stripped of their bark. I knew from a friend who is a forester that the Native Americans who hunted this area long ago had peeled the outer bark and harvested the underlying layer for chewing gum. Some of the scars were disfiguring, but others, filled with crystallized sap and burnished by wind and weather, had been transformed into patterns of rare beauty.

So it is with our transgressions. We may be scarred by the sins of the past. But those sins, repented of and brought to Jesus for His forgiveness, can leave behind marks of beauty.

Some people, having tasted the bitterness of sin, now loathe it. They hate evil and love righteousness. Theirs is the beauty of holiness.

Others, knowing how far they fall short (Rom. 3:23), have tender hearts toward others. They rise up with understanding, compassion, and kindness when others fail. Theirs is the beauty of humility.

Finally, when acts of sin are freely and thoroughly forgiven it leads to intimacy with the One who has shown mercy. Such sinners love much for much has been forgiven (Luke 7:47). Theirs is the beauty of love.

Let the beauty of Jesus be seen in me—
All His wonderful passion and purity!
O Thou Spirit divine, all my nature refine,
Till the beauty of Jesus be seen in me. —Orsborn

A forgiven heart is the fountain of beauty.

Read: Luke 7:36-49

Her sins, which are many, are forgiven, for she loved much. —Luke 7:47

Bible in a Year:
1 Chronicles 14-16

Evening, Kathy.

Actually, I’m going down memory lane with those TV dinners (turkey & gravy) many moons ago.

[SkyDancer]

Oh Girl!

You Are Outgoing

You are a social butterfly. You have a large social circle, and you always have room for more friends.
You are a complete flirt, but all of your play is harmless fun! You are quite the charmer.

You are happy to follow the crowd until it stops working out for you. You are easily influenced.
You find that you're a fairly indecisive person. Everything ends up sounding good to you.

[SkyDancer]

Hi All!

[SkyDancer]

For Kathy And All That She Does!

Why do we close our eyes when we pray, when we cry, when we kiss, when we dream. Because the most beautiful things in life are not seen but felt only by heart..

You Are Emotional

You are a highly sensitive person. You feel everything deeply - both the good and the bad.
You have a strong nurturing instinct. You take good care of those around you and of yourself.

You make allowances indulgences and comforts. Life is too hard not to be easy on yourself!
You are very protective of those you love. You're often lending a hand before someone even thinks to ask for it.

You Are Borderline Insane

You are a highly insensitive person. You enjoy watching your neighbor fall on a frozen sidealk.
Your sense of humor would normally be your saving grace, but it kicks in at bad times (like funerals).

You make your life all about indulgences and comforts. Life is too easy on to not be all about yourself!
You are very protective of those things you love. You're often asking for a handout before you even need it.
