Been Busy! Whew!!

I have made four items for customers this week. I have four to do next week as well. My blog on Heart Of A Mommy has been poorly neglected. So sorry! For those who are interested, I have started a business blog for Felicity Cottage.

The new blog can be found HERE

I am going to start praying about the direction of this blog, and some other ideas that are looming in my head. Don't worry! I'll still be here in blogging land...just taking a few different directions with it. And hopefully ones that you will like. ;-)

So don't be surprised if you start to see some changes in the next coming several months. Stay tuned. ♥

Now Advertsing on Biblical Womanhood

I purchased an ad on Biblical womanhood.com for three months. I am not sure if it will help spread the word or not, but it does look really cute amongst all the other ads on her side bar. ;-)


Go take a look! And if you didn't know about biblical womanhood, she is a mom around my age expecting her third little one.

She is an expert on bargain shopping and has two other blogs. One is to help people learn how to save money when grocery shopping and other areas in the fi⋅nance department. The other is to help encourage mom's with little ones as these times when they are little can be a bit tough when one is sleep deprived, LOL!

Here are links to her other blogs:

"Tell Me Why Are you Striving"

This song is beautiful! It is almost like my testimony really. So many "Christians" KNOW that they need God's Grace. They KNOW that they are sinners, and are not good enough.

But sooooo many (me included at one time in my life) think that they have to *earn* God's Grace. By going to church, reading their bible, humbling themselves, repenting of their sins, dying to self, being a dedicated Christian worker, etc.

But this won't cut it with God. He isn't impressed with all of our striving, and trying to earn his Grace. Grace is given to us for no reason on our part. God gives it to us, because for some strange reason he loves us sinners. But he also doesn't love us because of our sin either.

God has a true holy balanced character. Sin must be dealt with. And the only way *we ourselves* can deal with sin is to die and go to Hell.

God doesn't want us to go to Hell. So he provided a way through Jesus' death on the cross as payment for our own sins. Jesus carried our sins on his body, and died in our place.

But many do not know that Jesus' death on the cross in the *only* thing that impresses God. Not *our* striving.

So if you want God's grace.... accept it. It's already been provided through Jesus' death on the cross. It's yours to take freely. Only believe that what Jesus did is good enough for your sin.
