Coming right up! Deanna is serving a hefty portion of Light Heartedness and Laughter to all her Beloved Guest today for Home Haven's Tea On Thursday. Can I have a Witness? Amen!
I NEED A GOOD HARDY LAUGH. Hows 'bout you?
How often has life just got 'cha down and it hurts to smile? Maybe too many. I'm tellin' ya this Summer has had some challenges coming against my peace of mind.
I could come across as super-spiritual and pretend that these things were just nothing...nuttin' at tall, honey. But I'd be lying if I put a poker face on and went on as usual. Much time in prayer and conversation have transpired and I'm not as uptight. PTL and thank you friends for praying. Prayer is so important. It deeply touches me all the kind words spoken and sincere prayers given.
So today while we chit-chat I'm CeLeBrAtInG some VICTORIES with you by using my whimsy tea cup that my hubby gave me for fun. SWEETHEART, YOU MEAN SO MUCH TO ME. The cup is cute and colorful.
Now I will smile.
This sweet cup isn't just any 'ole cup. This one is a Prosperi-Tea Cup. It informs me that: Your good fortune and success are signs of your hard work. Your goodwill carries you through anything with flying colors.
After the Summer I'm having I should probably go looking for a bath tub to soak in that has this saying on it. Then maybe life's storms wouldn't cause such havic...
On second thought, I wouldn't be leaning on the Lord as much either.
Won't you have a whimsy cup of Prosperi-Tea TEA with me? I'd enjoy hearing from you. True friendships are hard to come by and when you make a good friend...that's true prosperity.
When we grow from our experiences and become the people that God would have us to be...that's true prosperity.
When you hold a loved one's hand...that's true prosperity.
When a long last child returns home...that's true prosperity.
When you can turn your disappointments over to God...that's true prosperity.
When you can forgive yourself for not being perfect...that's true prosperity.
When you can read the Holy Bible and understand what it means...that's true prosperity.
When you hear the voice of God...that's amazing and true prosperity!!!
When you are a child of the MOST HIGH GOD...you've hit gold.
I'm sorry, I didn't hear you. Did you say you wanted some sugar with your tea?
One lump or two?
Thank you for visiting. I'm here most Thursdays.
Blessings abound,
~Deanna~

Marmie,
I would love a cup of tea. Thanks! Hey, I was going to tell you, when it rained in the house this week you acted like a champ! In all my nearly thirty years of being your daughter I've never seen you perform job of wife and bucket handler with a smile on, going, "well this is different"! I "cheer" you on! God bless....
Deanna,
Thanks forthe tea. I loce the mug and your reflections.
God Bless!
Hi Deanna,

Thank you for letting me come and visit today.
Hugs

I'll have two lumps please. I always love taking tea with you on Thursdays! What an inspirational post that no doubt has 'prosperi-tea' in it:).
Blessings dear friend,
Kim
No sugar for me, thanks! One verse that I take to heart - Whatsoever you ask, believing, you shall receive. I pray you receive great blessing with the rest of your summer.
It's true we would be remiss if we acted like everything was perfect all the time. Most of the time I am thankful and forgiving. I am thankful and forgiving today. It has been a hard two weeks for my family. It is always hard when family problems first pop up, but with prayer and patience the SON shines through and only love surrounds us all.Blessings

I loved having tea with you ( bucket handler huh?)and I'll take mine without sugar please.
Thank-you for the reflections on His ways, and some perspective.
I thought the mug fit when I found it. Now I am sure of it!
Thank your for your kind words. Having you for my wife, now that is true prosperity! You are a blessing in so many ways.
Your post reminds me of 3 John 1:2 "Beloved, I wish above all things that you may prosper and be in health, even as your soul prospers".
Love you,
