<span style="font-size: large;">Hi everyone, since I've been laid off from my job, I've been dibbling and dabbling in a little bit of everything lately.</span><br />
<a name='more'></a><span style="font-size: large;"> <b> One of the things I enjoy doing is making and creating posters for blogs and websites..</b> I want to show off some of my work right here to everyone , </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">so I created for website images so you can get an idea of what I can do for their blog posts and websites. I know you can make them on some other site. I'm just starting out, so, my prices may be worth looking into, Plus while I'm creating beautiful posters for you, you can be working on another important task. These are a few samples of my creative post ideas, If you want to know more about the prices please drop me a comment and your email so I can communicate with you by way of email.</span><br />

I was in bible study one Wednesday, and the teacher was teaching from Hebrews 11:1 and he pointed out something interesting. .He said that, some people read the scripture without acknowledging the word now before faith, and that it's important to remember to use the word now so it reads now faith, in the present tense. Have you ever heard someone quote the scripture without saying now faith first? Some people have very little understanding of this one verse, so I want to share what I've learned by giving you examples of what faith is, and how it will help you in life.</div>

With faith, you believe even though you don't actually see it.</div>

<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
If you have faith in almighty God of Abraham, Issac, and Jacob you have the assurance and convictions that he will answer your requests according to your faith.For example; I work all week long before I get paid, but I have faith that I'm going to reap the rewards of my labor in two weeks. Another example; I am getting ready to eat a delicious red apple, but I don;t know how it's going to taste, but, I have faith that a red apple is going to be sweet when bite into it. These are examples of the kind of faith that our heavenly father wants us to have in his holy word. He wants us to believe that no weapon formed against us shall be able to prosper. He wants us to receive his unconditional love by faith, his healing by faith, his anointing by faith, his power by faith, and eternal life by faith.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">

<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
When someone turn from sin and turn their life e over to the Lord, They must have faith to believe that you have been born again,washed them and cleansed them from all unrighteousness, praise the living God and then after they believe, they must act on it because faith without works is dead. Pray my strength in the Lord,</div>

I want to share my surprising and unexpected pregnancy experience I endured with my first and only child that I didn't dream in a million years would happen to me. Early one morning, I started feeling light cramps in my stomach. It felt like i had too use the stool, so I went to the stool but nothing happened. As the day went by, I noticed the cramps hadn't left and i thought it was odd, so my husband and I went for a walk to see if that would help any, but it didn't. Nothing relieved the cramps. By the time night fell, I had to make a decision about what I was going to do about my situation. Get this, it never entered into my mind that I could be going into labor, and that's exactly what was happening, but I didn't know it until i went to my doctor. When my doctor checked me out, he told me that I'd dilated three centimeters already! wow and shock is what I thought and felt! To make a long story short, I was sent to another hospital and ended up having our precious baby boy early that next morning because the doctor couldn't stop the baby from coming. When our son, Dallas P. Douglas Jr. came out, he was fully developed but weighed only 2 lbs 3 ounces with a head full of hair! I say that jokingly because if he was full term, his hair would have been like a wig!!!I am so happy and proud that God had mercy on me, opened my wombs, and blessed me to be able to experience mother hood! <br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="text-align: left;"> Everyone of my friends was so happy for me because they knew that I wanted a child of my own, but most importantly, we were excited as well as thankful too the Lord for answering our prayers!! I don't think I mentioned this, but I thought I couldn't have any children because I didn't have any the whole twelve years I was with my first husband, and things turned around a year after I met and married my second husband. I thank the Lord daily for my miracle baby! He's the baby that was in my stomach when I was in a car accident, and the baby I thought I'd never have. The only thing I regret is that I wasn't able to take pictures of my stomach because I went into preterm labor. </span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">While traveling from work not thinking about anything except trying to get
home as fast as I can because I was tired, low and behold, less than one hundred feet from home, I
got the scare of my life! A car from out of nowhere, crushed my car from the
side where I was driving! That was the first and only accident I ever had
or ever was involved in. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>For a minute
there, I guess I was in a comma because everything was black! I could
hear people talking to me, but I couldn't see a thing. I remember hearing
the rescue workers telling me that I was hit hard by another car, and I
remember telling them that I was pregnant. Since I was pregnant, they
didn't want to take any chances, so they air lifted me to the nearest
hospital! I think we got there in less than five minutes. They took me
into the emergency department, checked me out then checked my baby out. They
told me that my baby was doing well! I believe it was the grace of God that
kept me and my child from losing our lives that day. I know that God has
angels place all around us and keeps us safe as we journey through our
lives! I also want to add that, it's a wise idea to keep your trust and hopes
in God because you never know when something like this might occur! Stay
tuned for more posts to come as I unfold my pregnancy and parenting
experiences.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">One may ask, What is a home? A home is a place where you feel loved, a place where you feel safe, a place to spend time with those you love, a place to find rest, and a place to strengthen your relationships. My prayer is that you have a home in which you are able to experience these things. </span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">The bible tells us that we can know for sure that we have a heavenly home.</span><br />
<ol>
<li><span style="font-size: large;"> Romans 3:23 tells us that <strong>we are all sinners saved by grace.</strong></span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">Romans 6: 23 tells us that <strong>there is a price to be paid for our sins, and that price is death.</strong> Of course, we all must die, but Revelation 20:14 states that <strong>death and hell were cast into the lake of fire and this is the second death.</strong></span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">Romans 6:23 also tells us <strong>the good news that the payment for sin's price has been made available as a free gift from Jesus Christ</strong>.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">Romans 5:8 gives us <strong>the good news that Christ paid the payment for sin by his death on the cross.</strong></span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">Romans 10:13 tells us that <strong>whosoever, MEANING YOU, will call upon Christ to accept his gift, shall be saved!</strong></span></li>
</ol>
<span style="font-size: large;">My question to you is, <strong>Have you accepted his gift?</strong> 1 John 5:13 says, "These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God."</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">Of course every parent wants their children to feel valued, but sometimes we don't know the exact words to say to make them feel valued and loved. During my training as a preschool teacher, I learned some valuable lessons about helping a child feel valuable, respected, and loved unconditionally.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"> At a training session, our instructor gave everyone a sheet of paper that names at least fifty ways to help your child feel good about themselves, but, before we could use these words, she reminded us that it was important to be sincere. Soon After I got this list, I was ready to start <span style="font-size: small;"> </span> using some of these words instead of less important one's I had learned as a child. Needless to say, I was ever thankful that I decided to take childcare classes while my son was very young because as I always say, children do not come with instructions!! I wanted to share this list with all of you because we are our child's first teacher and our roles as parents are to build up our children and their sense of self value and self worth, up with positive words, so, at the end, Please feel free to leave comments and you may share more positive words for parent's such as myself to use with children.</span><br />

</span> </span><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">The power of
a praying woman is a book that was written by Stormie Omartian.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>This book is not only awesome but deep and
powerful as well! I read this book more than once. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It doesn’t matter what age you are, what your
marital status is, what the condition of your body and soul is, or how long you
have or have not been a believer- if you are a woman, I summit to you today to
get this book in your possession. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>For
one, Stormie’s been a follower of the lord well over thirty years and counting,
and she<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>knows about praying because
according to the book, she’s a praying woman, and she knows from experience
that there’s power in prayer.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Two, I
recommend it because it also teaches you how to pray and what to say while
praying for whatever it is you<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>need to
pray about.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Three, I recommend this book
because I can relate to the stories she tell and examples she gives about
struggles that women face on a daily basis.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Lastly, I recommend it because when I’m praying about a situation, I can
go to her book, look in the contents and find a topic related to my situation
read it and find comforting words to draw strength from and find a prayer that
I can use for my situation without struggling with what to say and how to say
it because the prayers Stormie gives to her readers are perfectly fit for the
situations given.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Stormie has something
in this book that every woman can draw strength from, and these are the reasons
why I recommend this book to all of you women. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></span><br /></div>

<br />
On May 11, 2002 Tampa's Lowry Park Zoo introduced Wallaroo Station, a 4.5 acre Australian-themed family area, where thousands of families with young children have enjoyed an interactive Australian adventure. The hands-on, family-friendly features helped the Zoo secure top honors from two national parenting magazines: Parents, "10 Best Zoos," (2009); and Child, "The 10 Best Zoos for Kids" (2004).<br /><br /> Earlier this year, Wallaroo Station temporarily closed for remodeling - the first significant updating of this award-winning attraction in its 13 year history. Newly re-opened for spring, guests to the "new Wallaroo" can expect this Aussie area to be even more "Auss-ome" with new animals and upgraded amenities, including:<br /><br /> * a female Queensland koala named "Ceduna" (a mate for our male "Heathcliff");<br /><br /> * "Bushland Birds" habitat with feathered friends and Fiji-banded iguanas;<br /><br /> * more water features in "The Billabong" splash ground;<br /><br /> * redesigned cafe with "grab and go" food and beverage;<br /><br /> * expanded dining area with additional seats and shade canopies;<br /><br /> * a new nursing mothers area with baby-friendly features;<br /><br /> * a new and fun ride for young children - Lil' Joeys Caravan;<br /><br /> * new midway games and activities;<br /><br /> * ponies on parade (twice daily) and a goat show; and<br /><br /> * livestock training demonstrations with ponies and llamas.<br /><br /> <strong>EXPLORE</strong><br /><br /> Take a trip to the "Land of Oz" and visit a variety of animals of Australia and its neighbors including koala, wallabies, cockatoos, emu, singing dogs and flying fox bats. Help welcome the newest Aussie additions - a female Queensland koala named "Ceduna," colorful birds and Fiji-banded iguanas, and take a walkabout with the wallabies in their walk-thru exhibit. The petting area features a herd of friendly goats that children can brush, pet and feed. Adjacent to the petting area, families can step into a barn that houses Haflinger horses and llamas. Don't miss the new daily pony parade, goat show and livestock training demonstrations!<br /><br /> <strong>PLAY</strong><br /><br /> The newly upgraded "Billabong" water play area takes kids "down under" to an interactive splash zone with in-ground fountains and free standing water features. Try your hand at new midway games with the chance to win prizes and souvenirs, or go mining for gems and fossils at the new Hopper's Mining Company.<br /><br /> <strong>RIDE</strong><br /><br /> Children can take a spin on one of five fun rides: the NEW Lil Joey's Caravan, Tasmanian Tiger Family Roller Coaster, Overland Express Kiddie Train, Boomer's Flyin' Bananas and Outback Bumper Boats.<br /><br /> <strong>REFRESH</strong><br /><br /> Parents can enjoy added shade while their little joeys cool off in the water play area. Next door is Boomer's Cafe, a redesigned grab-and-go restaurant offering a variety of freshly prepared foods and drinks. A "mommy center," designed for nursing mothers, provides shade and privacy for infants and caregivers.<br /><br /> <strong>About Tampa's Lowry Park Zoo</strong><br /><br /> Tampa's Lowry Park Zoo is operated by the Lowry Park Zoological Society, an independent 501(c)(3) charitable organization committed to excellence in education, conservation and research.

If so, then, I recommend this book to you because number one, this book is about crafting unique strategies, tools, and ideas that helps you see things from a different perspective and help your child to move from where he or she is right now to where he or she needs to be. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Number two, this book shows you how to develop godly strategies that will maximize the work you will do with your child in order to bring about a heart change because change in the heart is much more powerful than behavior adjustment.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>According to the author, their methods have worked for thousands, but the book doesn’t guarantee change will take place because children are not robots under your will.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>However; it assures that you will learn how to position yourself in such a way that you will be doing all you can to influence a more positive change in your child’s behavior, and it has many illustrations that you can choose from.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<br />
Parenting isn't always an easy job because for one, children do not come with instructions! I still remember the days of parenting my child when he was a early toddler. Sometimes, I look back and wonder how did I survive it all! The temper tantrums among many other things were so overwhelming. With all of that being said, I really and truly understand it when parents get aggravated and frustrated all at the same time feel like pulling their hair out! Before I had a child, I used to look at others with children and think parenting was peaches and creams all the time. Most of the time, I never really saw the other side of it or no one even shared the ups and downs of parenting with me. So, by going through what I experienced, It made me want to be of give some resources to mothers to be and mothers who are totally new with parenting and can use some valuable lessons that I wished I had ran across in those days. I ran across some material that will be a blessing to those who are desperately searching for help. </div>

we’ll see,” said the Sun.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>So the Sun
went behind a cloud but left a little hole so he could peep through and see

blew as hard as he could causing a terrible storm, but the harder he blew, the
tighter the old man wrapped his coat about him.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Sometimes, it seemed that the coat would blow right off the old man, and
sometimes it seemed the old man would topple over. In the end, the poor old
Wind had to give up trying, and the sky became calm again.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Each day is given to us as a gift from God. what we do with it and how we may handle it, is the choice each of us make. Let me share with you some thoughts from Max Lucado's book" <strong>When God Whispers Your Name" </strong>as to his choices for the day:</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">It's quiet...In a few moments the day will arrive. In these next hours I will be exposed to the day's demands. It is now that I must make a choice. Because of Calvary, I'm free to choose. and so I choose. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I choose love. No occasion justifies hatred; not injustice warrants bitterness. I choose love. Today, I will love God and what God loves.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I choose joy....I will invite God to be the God of Circumstances. I will refuse the temptation to be cynical. I will refuse to see people as anything less than human beings, created by God. I will refuse to see any problem as anything less than an opportunity to see God.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I choose peace. I will love forgiven. I will forgive so that I may live.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I choose patience... I will overlook the inconveniences of the world. Instead of cursing the one who takes my place, I'll invite him to do so. Rather than complain that the wait is too long. I will thank God for a moment to pray. Instead of clinching my fist at new assignments, I will face them with joy and courage.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I choose kindness... I will be kind to the poor, for they are alone. Kind to the rich for they are afraid, and kind to the unkind for such is how God has treated me.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I choose goodness...I will go without a dollar before I take a dishonest one. I will be overlooked before I will boast. I will confess before I will accuse. I choose goodness.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I choose faithfulness...Today, I will keep my promises. My debtors will not regret their trust. My associates will not question my word. My wife or husband will not question my love, and my children will never fear their mother or father will not come home.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I choose gentleness... nothing is won by force. I choose to be gentle. If I raise my voice, may it only be in praise. If I clench my fist, may it only be a prayer. If I make a demand , may it only be of myself.</span><br />
<br />
<strong><span style="font-size: x-large;">"cross words"</span></strong><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">"when someone comes to you with an ugly attitude, return it with a kind word. Give it a try. You may be surprised at the outcome."</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Proverbs 15:1 (NIV) A gentle answer turns away wrath, but harsh words stirs up anger.<br />Minnie L Douglas (author and publisher)</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I recommend this book to your collection of books because It helps to be reminded to keep our focus on what God wants even when were being attacked with ugly attitudes. To get your copy, click on the link below the book.</span><br />

</div>
<span style="font-size: 18pt;">Look at those crowd followers. Aren't they a
bunch? Are you following the crowd from breakfast to lunch and never
asking, "Where are we going?" They say to them, “We are just
riding the current wherever it’s flowing.” Now, this is sure a breeze.
Following the crowd is as easy as you please." They never stop to consider
where all this will end; they just keep on following all of their friends.</span><o:p></o:p><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<span style="font-size: 18pt;">Everyone else must know where we're heading,
so why should I do any fretting? I'll just follow the crowd all day and
all night. I'm sure everything will turn out all right."
Everyone is laughing and having such fun. Why not following the crowd
would really be dumb. I really don't care where all of this may end; I
just want to keep having fun with my friends."</span><o:p></o:p><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<span style="font-size: 18pt;">But, every road must come to an end.
The crowd followers too have to round the last bend. And, when they do,
they will come face to face with the creator and designer of the whole human
race. And, he'll not ask what the crowd has to say. For each person
will have to speak for themselves that day.</span><o:p></o:p><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<span style="font-size: 18pt;">And, when everything has been said and done,
the crowd again will march forward as one. No one will, that day, want to
follow their friends, because they know destruction will be their end, but
because they spent their life following the crowd, on that final day, not
turning back will be allowed. <o:p></o:p></span><br />

<strong>ST. MARK 16:1-8</strong><br />
<strong></strong><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">And when the Sabbath was past, Mary Magdalene, and Mary, the mother of James, and Salome, had bought sweet spices, that they might come and anoint him.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">and very early in the morning , the first day of the wee, they came unto the sepulcher at the rising of the sun.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">And they said among themselves, who shall roll us away the stone from the door of the sepulcher?</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">And when they looked, they saw that the stone was rolled away: for it was very great.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">And entering into the sepulcher, they saw a young man sitting on the right side clothed in a long white garment, and they were afraid.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">And he said unto them, " Be not afraid. Ye seek Jesus of Nazareth which was crucified; He is risen! He is not here, behold the place where they lay him Rather, go your way and tell his disciples and Peter that he go</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"> before you into Galilee. There shall ye see him, as he said unto you." And they went out quickly, and fled from the sepulcher for they trembled and was amazed! Neither said they anything to any man for they were afraid.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 18pt;">Want to let your little ones make a
beautiful Easter basket or two? I decided to get creative for this coming
Easter, so, I made a beautiful Easter basket out of a green strawberry basket
that was a savings in itself! during the Spring, I go through lots of
strawberries, so I just started collecting them and use them with my
Preschoolers, and my young grandkids always tell me that out of all
the grandmas, I'm the only one who do crafts with them. That just melts my
heart even the more because I'm so thankful that I have the opportunity and the
mind to invest in these youngsters. I don't always have money to go out
and buy expensive stuff, but I make good use of what I do have, and I usually
have something that I can use when these holidays roll around. here's
the pictures of the first Easter basket I made because I always make a
sample of what I want my little ones to make, and I tell them, they can
decorate it with whatever color they like so it will have their own
personal taste. '</span><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">When things go wrong, as they sometimes will</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">when the road you're trudging seems all up hill;</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">When the funds are low and the debts are high</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">and you want to smile, but you have to sigh;</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">When care is pressing down a bit,</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Rest if you must, but don't you quit!</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Life is strange with its twists and turns,</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">As everyone of us sometimes learns;</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">And many a fellow turns about,</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">When he might have won , had he stuck it out;</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Don't give up, though the pace seems slow,</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"> You might succeed with another blow!</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Often the goal is nearer than it seems,</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">To a faint and faltering man;</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Often the struggler has given up,</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">When he might have captured the victor's cup;</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">And he learned too late when the night came down,</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">How close he was to the golden crown.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Success is failure, turned inside out,</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">The silver tent of the clouds of doubt,</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">And you never can tell how close you are,</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"> It may be near, when it seems afar;</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">S, stick to the fight when you're hardest hit,</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">It's when things seem worst, that YOU MUST NOT QUIT!</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><strong>Lesson:</strong></span><br />
<strong><span style="font-size: large;">"Endure to the end" are words that we bear countless times in the scriptures. What do they really mean to you?"</span></strong><br />
<strong><span style="font-size: large;"></span></strong><br />
<strong><span style="font-size: large;">Scriptures: Proverbs 4:18 But the path of the just is as the shining light, that shines more and more unto a perfect day.</span></strong><br />
<strong><span style="font-size: large;">Hebrews 11:6 For without faith, it is impossible to please him; for he that cometh unto God must believe he is God and that he is a rewarded of them that diligently seek him.</span></strong><br />
