Generosity of Spirit!

Good Afternoon, or whatever is the best greeting to you, in your part of the world!

Wow, is all I can say! Had a spectacular afternoon yesterday; went to a wonderful art exhibit and stayed for three hours! It was, indeed, a special time to be in touch with old friends, and meet new people. The artwork included unique lifelike animal sculptures, as well as elegant vases and lamps. We did not purchase anything yesterday; but we will do so, when the timing is better for us. My childhood chum was happy to see us; and he offered to be 'commissioned' to do up a piece for us. That is something we look forward to, at a later date; and again, when things are 'ship shape'; we will travel to their part of the world and pick up whatever artistic creation it will be. You can refer to yesterday's post, for a bittid of background. Both husband and wife have been Blessed with an awesome gift!

The warm home of our friends, is absoluting stunning and tastefully decorated; with beautiful dark woodwork / beams throughout the whole house! Exquisite contrasts of off white furniture, hardwood floors, rugs, etc. The windows and skylights provide magnificent unfettered views of both the ocean and the mountains. Their outstanding kitchen is the main gathering place; and from there, tidbitz appies and white wine were served.

One of the bittitz that caught my attention, was the small fully laden apple tree, springing right up outside their lofty kitchen window. I thought, Wow! What a treat; to see this little tree, bearing so much wondrous ripe fruit! And, at this time of year! 'Fruits of the Spirit', methinks. I believe that our friends are truly Blessed; and we are happy for them and their new cosy home! We were given the Blessing of just being included; amongst old family friends and genuinely connecting / reconnecting with others.

One of the people we met, is a mother, whose daughter, was a good friend of my daughter's, when they were in high school together. She and I agreed we would keep us and them in touch! We also met a gentleman who lives in Mexico; and Alan and I have been invited to stay with him and his wife. There are NO coincidences; and I discern, these kind people are all part of His awesome Mosaic! 'Do unto others, as you would have them do unto you'. Yesterday, was a day of a 'mini thanksgiving'; as well as a celebration to everyone's good fortune. ie. Generosity of Spirit!

This morning, I embraced the Vision Channel; and I truly appreciate all their insightful messages; hence more ephifanies! May share some bittids with you; but once again, best to direct yourselves to their websites, as they provide both enlightening encouragement and solid Biblical teachings. 'Seek and Ye Shall Find'. A few tidbits; which may touch your hearts, when you tune into them. ie. On 'Hour of Power', Dr. Schuller was empowering in his illuminating message re: 'Heroics in Faith', as well as inspiring 'positive emotions.' On 'Enjoying Everyday Life', Joyce emphatically shares - 'to not give up in the hard times; and to do things for the right reasons'. On 'Living Truth', Charles shares a wonderful explanation about motives and effective Prayer - ie 'Journey into the Heart of God.' The Lord's Prayer is the most powerful Prayer of all; as it addresses everything.

Here are their empowering sites again! 'Hour of Power' (Dr. Robert Schuller - www.hourofpower.org); 'Enjoying Everyday Life' (Joyce Meyer - www.joycemeyer.org); and 'Living Truth' (Charles Price - www.livingtruth.ca).

Tidbit - We have much to be Thankful for and we should treat each and every day as a genuine 'mini thanksgiving'; giving Him Thanks and sincere Praise all the while! (regardless of challenging circumstances).

Bittid - Be joyful for others and their Blessings!

Hope you do yourselves a tidbit favour (or others you know - 'Pay It Forward'), and really take an open look at these ministerial websites; or other sites you appreciate. Particularly, if you are discouraged, depressed, downtrodden, in despair, whatever. Even those of you, who are generally upbeat, there are always new ephifanies to experience; to learn and grow in your walk with Him! The Bible IS the best teaching; and these ministries help give us all a better understanding about Him. He IS the WAY, the TRUTH, and the LIGHT (or LIFE).

Love the above photo image with its impactful and powerful message! 'Love Conquers All'.

Peace and God Bless.
