Dear Friends,
I would like to share with you a little prayer that my elderly neighbor had hanging up in her kitchen. It goes perfectly with the dish towels that I just found at the antique store (for less than what Walmart charges!). I hope you enjoy it~

Amen.

Love this, Marqueta! I may have to copy this down to make some towels of my own! ;-)
ReplyDeleteExcept for Friday: Shopping Day. We cannot purchase eternal happiness, for ourself or for any other. It comes with the free gift of salvation we receive from our Heavenly Father when we accept His Son as our Lord and Savior. I may have to think of something else for that one. ;-)
