Scripture
ObservationIn Part 1, we discussed Paul's love for the Philippians and how this verse could be a prayer. I would now like to look at Paul's instructions to stand firm in the LORD "in this way".
Application
In what way? By keeping in mind that our citizenship is in Heaven (Philippians 3:20)? Yes and no. I believe Paul is refering to the entire letter. He gave so much instruction on living out our faith in this letter! We could go in chronological and focus on applying one aspect a week and be challenged! Yes, I believe he is focusing on the entire letter.
What do you think?
Prayer
Thank You, LORD, for this wonderful letter and insight....I wonder if that is the new path You have for us?
You have been so generous with Your insights and guidance. My heart is filled with gratitude and humbleness.
Thank You, my dear Abba!

Here's my likes from this week!
My theme is
rescuing plants
and gardens that not only survive,
but thrive!
These four plants were dying at my local hardware store! In fact, the Devil's Ivy had black leaves! But, with a bit of TLC, they came back stronger and better than ever.....sort of like people......
This little garden always struggled, even though it had a drip system in it. But now look at it! It needed a bit more TLC in the form of more water (more nozzles) and better soil. Sometimes we have to provide a bit of extra for those who are hurting.....
Consequently, the tree in the same garden took off and is now providing much needed shade from our 100+ degree temperatures to the garden below!
Amazing what a bit of
TLC can accomplish!
Studio Tour Part 6: Increasing Crafting Productivity and Storage Tip
Part 1 Part 2 Part 3 Part 4 Part 5
This is they side of my sewing studio where the magic happens! Or the frustration - depending on the circumstances! :)
By the way, this is an unedited picture!
This little project board keeps me on task with current project and wish list projects. Due to it's small size,
I don't get overwhelmed!
It's made from a left over 4'X8' foam board
we picked up
from our local hardware store.
I just covered it with flannel.
My granddaughter decorated the edges and my projects, materials, patterns
and such went in the middle.
I usually print out my To Do Tuesday (from Stitching All Things)
and pin that up there as well.
That helps me stay focused,
organized and productive!
And yes,
I do go off on rabbit trails once in a while - depending on the rabbit of course!
I store all those little bits and bobs we use in these little containers. It's easy to do:
Materials:
Several Dollar Tree cookie sheets and packages of storage containers
(I uses squarish ones because more fit on the cookie sheet.)
magnets
glue gun and glue
1. Glue the magnets on the lids of your containers.
2. Gather all your bits and bobs that are floating around your sewing space.
3. cover your containers and place them lid down on the cookie sheets.
4. You can now see all your stuff and it's attached to one place. I simply stack my cookie sheets when not in use!
Cool, huh?
