(Some of) You Asked For It ... You Got It!

Funny how you're more interested in seeing my messy house than my quilt, but, being the kind-hearted, generous person that I am, I decided to oblige you :) Lucky you. This is my contribution to you feeling less guilt.

This is my living room this morning.


This is my kitchen this morning (after my husband very kindly rinsed the dishes and stacked them next to the sink last night).


This is my craft table.




Do you ladies feel better now?!


Well, I'm sorry, I just couldn't leave it at that. So after Ashley and I picked up everything, I took some "after" photos just to redeem myself ... because I have been working very hard the past few months at not having a messy house (and I'm so excited because I'm actually at the point now where I can't tolerate it messy for more than 24 hours. Yeah me!).


So these are the "After" photos:

of my living room:


my kitchen:


and not the craft area 'cause I haven't actually cleaned that up yet. And I may not get around to it till we come back. And that's okay!
I hope to post about two more things before we leave tomorrow morning. So check back!
And just one more thing: I can't wait to see your messy bedroom now, Teena ;) lol!

Wow...that is soooo not messy. When I get the courage, I will post some of my sins too. I bet I can find some good ones of the bathroom floor with all of the little brown curly hairs on it.

Nehemiah: Sheep Gate (Symbolism)

By Carmela
hubpages.com http://www.prayfordetroit.com/ As I mentioned in my Nehemiah  post, God has nudged me this summer to study Nehemiah in depth because He has some things He wants to show me.  I am just starting Chapter 5, and I must say it is so exciting and interesting. I have to admit, though, that when I got to Chapter 3, it just looked like one of those boring chapters: it gave all the boring details about each section of the wall of Jerusalem that was being rebuilt, and gave countless names of the people who rebuilt each section.  I was going to skip it and move on to Chapter 4 when I felt the Lord nudge me to look deeper--that there was something here that He wanted to show me.   So I dutifully sought the Lord (and a research book, and the internet!) , and was ASTOUNDED at the incredible layers of symbolism in the names of the gates!  It has turned out to be my favorite chapter so far.  :)  God is incredibly amazing, huh?   The big picture that He has shown me so far?  Eve

Your "Fairy-Tale" Life

By Carmela
Your life may not look like a fairy tale, and it may certainly not FEEL like a fairy tale, but I am going to attempt to prove to you today that your Christian walk parallels a fairy-tale life.  😊  Initially, this may sound almost blasphemous to you, but I am so certain that I received this directly from God.  I pray that it encourages you to believe that God is working in your situation whether you see evidence of it or not.  He is such a good God, and such a big God.  😊 First, I would like to start with the main points that a speaker made at a Girls Ministries camp that I attended a few weeks ago, which were the springboard for what God revealed to me. • It took a lot of courage for Cinderella to respond to the prince’s invitation to the ball because of how her family made her feel. • It also took a lot of courage for Mary to obey and follow God’s plan for her life. • If we agree to follow Jesus and accept His invitation, and keep our eyes on Him, He will take us on a beau
