If you have not read this before, please do so now.  History teaches us a lot, but only if we listen, learn and act on the knowledge it provides. HOW LONG DO WE HAVE? This is the most interesting thing I've read in a long time. The sad thing about it, you can see it coming. I have always heard about this democracy countdown. It is interesting to see it in print. God help us, not that we deserve it. How Long Do We Have? About the time our original thirteen states adopted their new constitution in 1787, Alexander Tyler, a Scottish history professor at the  University of Edinburgh  , had this to say about the fall of the Athenian Republic some 2,000 years earlier: "A democracy is always temporary in nature; it simply cannot exist as a permanent  form of government ." "A democracy will continue to exist up until the time that voters discover they can vote themselves generous gifts from the public treasury." "From that moment on, the majority always vote for the...

I like this old fashioned sounding band/orchestra song. Similar to "The Piano" an animated movie short on youtube (piano song)

Welsh rarebit is what they would call the catch if hunters could not find anything suitable enough to eat except maybe rabbit. So it was called Rare-bit.  We have a CD with the song on it. It is played by bagpipes  and has a nice tune. Here are some videos about how to  make your own Welsh Rarebit on Youtube:

I had a friend (Mrs. F. in CO) ask for photos of my aprons... so finally, here are pictures of them..... and some other pictures too. Enjoy! Have a blessed day in our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ! Joyfully HIS, Elizabeth <><  At "Cath Kidstons" Fabric and accessories shop in Bristol this year.  http://www.cathkidston.co.uk/   The camera strap was made by a homeschool friend, and it traveled all the way from OKC to Scotland and England and back again!  :-) She sells them too.

I had a great time today at my Photography booth. Met a neat lady who has several International student friends, and she also wants to learn Spanish like me! I got more pom-pom orange, yellow, pink and magenta zinnias and yellow sunflower. I refilled my old vintage shaving mug pictured in another post. The ladies wil give you free refills after you buy a mug, vase or milk bottle. I got mine for only $4! And I have had 1 free refills of flowers now!  :-)The people and vendors at our Market are so great.

“Whether, then, you eat or drink or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God.” 1 Corinthians 10:31 Ever feel you need 10 more of you to accomplish anything of significance in life? Pastor Voddie Baucham reminds us that it only takes one woman to make a tremendous difference for the cause of Christ.   To read more go to the website!   http://preciousadornment.wordpress.com/ ~Joyfully HIS, Elizabeth Joy 1 Peter 1:4-9  "About midnight   Paul and Silas  were praying and singing hymns  to God, and the other prisoners were listening to them.   Suddenly there was such a violent earthquake that the foundations of the prison were shaken.  At once all the prison doors flew open,  and everyone’s chains came loose.    The jailer woke up, and when he saw the prison doors open, he drew his sword and was about to kill himself because he thought the prisoners had escaped.    But Paul shouted, “Don’t harm yourself...

God says you can be sure..... "These things I have written unto you that believe on the Name of the Son of God; that ye may KNOW that ye HAVE eternal life." 1 John 5:13 You may be satisfied (falsely so) because you have joined a church organization- this can be dangerous for your soul's eternal state - it is false assurance. The True Church is not an organization but an organism - like a body. 1 Cor. 12:12 You do not join it, you get BORN into it. The Lord Jesus said, "Except a man be born again, he cannot see the Kingdom of God." John 3:3 Your soul's salvation does not depend on "church membership" in any earthly church organization, but upon a personal faith in the Lord Jesus Christ as your own Savior.   "Christ died for the ungodly." Romans 5:6 "He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life." 1 John 5:12 You can find reality (and we would be glad to help you). Be saved today- be safe- a...
