FIRST I WOULD LIKE TO SAY I AM SORRY FOR NOT
WRITING FOR SUCH A LONG TIME, PLEASE FORGIVE
ME. SHADOW HAD BEEN FAILING IN HEALTH AND HE
NEEDED A LOT OF CARE.
I HAVE BEEN SO SAD THIS SEPTEMBER FOR MY
HEART IS HURTING. SHADOW MY DOG WENT HOME
TO BE WITH THE LORD. IT HAS BEEN SO HARD TO
SHARE THIS OR EVEN TALK ABOUT IT, HERE IS A
SHORT VIDEO CLIP I AM ABLE TO SHARE NOW. IT
WAS IN SEPTEMBER, MY BELOVED SHADOW WENT
HOME IN HIS SLEEP. IT WAS VERY DIFFICULT TO
FIND HIM RESTING IN HIS BED AND I WAS NOT ABLE
TO SEE HIM OFF, AND MY HEART JUST BROKE AND I
WEPT FOR DAYS. HE WAS SO SMART AND LOVED TO
PERFORM AND DO TRICKS. I EVEN TAUGHT HIM TO
SAY "I LOVE YOU"... IT WAS SO PRECIOUS TO ME. I
DRAW COMFORT FROM THESE...
SCRIPTURES 1 Praise ye the LORD. Praise God in his sanctuary: praise him in the firmament of his power. 2 Praise him for his mighty acts: praise him according to his excellent greatness. 3 Praise him with the sound of the trumpet: praise him with the psaltery and harp. 4 Praise him with the timbrel and dance: praise him with stringed instruments and organs. 5 Praise him upon the loud cymbals:praise him upon the high sounding cymbals. 6 Let every thing that hath breath praise the LORD.Praise ye the LORD.
WE MUST SUFFER AND GO THROUGH A JOURNEY OF ENTERING INTO HIS SUFFERING, FOR THIS IS THE WAY WE ENTER INTO THE LORD'S SUFFERING...
TRUE, WE WILL NEVER SUFFER THE WAY HE DID FOR HIM TO GIVE US SALVATION AND ETERNAL LIFE, BUT WE WILL DRAW CLOSER AND HAVE A DEEPER UNDERSTANDING OF HIS LOVE FOR US. IT IS IN THIS THAT WE CAN NOT HELP BUT TO DRAW CLOSE TO THE FATHER'S HEART, AMEN.

MY CAMERA HAS BEEN HAVING SOME PROBLEMS AND I DO HOPE IT FUNCTIONS WELL FOR THE PHOTO SHOOT. I DO DESPERATELY NEED A NEW ONE, BUT THAT MEANS I HAVE TO HAVE SOME MORE SALES TO DO SO. WELL... WISH ME WELL AND HOLD GOOD THOUGHTS, SEE YOU SOON :)WOW! THIS IS THE THIRD STAGE OF THE PEACOCK BANGLE, PHOTOS REVEALING THE TRANSFORMATION WITH SO MUCH BLING!!!. IN THE THIRD STAGE OF THE BANGLE I AM ENCRUSTING SPARKLE ALL BY HAND AND BEING VERY CAREFUL TO CONTROL THE PLACEMENT. EACH ONE OF THE STONES HAS BEEN HAND SET AND THE SPARKLE EFFECT ADDED VERY SLOWLY AND ALLOWED TO DRY IN BETWEEN. THE BANGLE IS STARTING TO GET A LITTLE WEIGHT BUT STILL VERY COMFORTABLE TO WEAR.
WOW!!! LOOKS LIKE MY CAMERA DID NOT SHY AWAY AT THE PHOTO SHOOT, THANKS YOU FOR YOUR GOOD THOUGHTS, HERE ARE YOUR PHOTOS...PLEASE
COMMENT AND SHARE WHAT YOU THINK OF THE BANGLE?
I MUST SAY I REALLY LIKE THE WAY I SHAPED THE BANGLE- GIVING A FLOWING MOVEMENT TO THE PEACOCK'S.BODY.

Here are the entries for the week (remember, you can still submit even after the deadline!):
Nohline L'Ecuyer: "Black and white - always elegant. Hand knotted fresh-water pearls, two striped black and white lampwork beads and hundreds of seed beeds strung up to balance out this necklace."

Do What Pleases God
by Max Lucado
Dad, would you intentionally break the arm of your child? Of course not. Such an action violates every fiber of your moral being. Yet if you engage in sexual activity outside your marriage, you’ll bring more pain into the life of your child than a broken bone.
Mom, would you force your children to sleep outside on a cold night? By no means. Yet if you involve yourself in an affair, you’ll bring more darkness and chill into the lives of your children than a hundred winters.
PRAYER TIME
SPEAK INTO OUR HEARTS TODAY AND BRING COMFORT HELP US TO KNOW YOU ARE LOVING AND PROTECTIVE OF EACH ONE OF US. OUR LIVES MAY BE OUT OF CONTROL OR MESSED UP RIGHT NOW!, HELP US TO SEEK YOU FOR YOU ARE THE CAPTAIN OF THE SHIP, WHO IS RIDING EACH WAVE WITH US, FOR WE ARE NEVER ALONE.
