You Are Loved So Much

Every woman has moments in her life when she feels about two inches tall.

Maybe it's feeling unappreciated, put down or neglected. People can poke at us, prod us and drive us insane with their words and actions - or lack thereof. There are some who do it unwittingly while other are purposely trying to crush our spirit.

Some days it's dealing with angry people at work. Other days it's friends and family who mean well but step on more than just your toes. Or complete strangers say and do the things in their hearts, not realizing who and what they're breaking.

These hostilities make us wonder if there's anyone out there who loves us. Sure, people say the words, but we often wonder if it's really true.

Are we all alone? Is there anyone left who loves us completely?
Without question?
For all eternity?
to the ends of the earth?

Take a few minutes to read and you'll soon discover the truth, the truth that will set you free:

You are SO loved ... John 3:16
You are cared about ... 1 Peter 5:7
You are GREATLY loved ... Ephesians 2:4-5
You are worth the sacrifice ... Romans 5:8
You are loved by the One Who IS love ... 1 John 4:8
You are crowned with love ... Psalm 103:4-5
You are ALWAYS loved in return ... Proverbs 8:17
You are loved beyond height and depth ... Romans 8:39
You are loved, rooted and grounded ... Ephesians 3:16-19

No one on the face of this earth will ever love you the way God does. When you feel abandoned, betrayed, alone and worthless, read these verses again.

You are loved beyond measure by the One Who created you - and He loves you just the way He made you.

Holland Creme - That Amazing White Stuff In Donuts

Image
I remember going to the grocery store every Saturday morning when I was growing up, and my favorite place in the entire store was the donut case. All the glazed, powdered and filled baked goods drew me like a magnet. My favorites, far and away, were the ones filled with that beautiful white, fluffy creme. At the time I didn't know it was called Holland Creme - I just knew it was the most amazing concoction ever. Ever. Here is my version of this sweet treat. You can make your own fried donuts and fill them, or like I did here, you can cut a crevice into store-bought donuts with a knife and fill them with creme in a piping bag. Either way, you're going to love it. Ingredients: 1 cup sugar 1/2 cup water 1 cup vegetable oil 1 cup shortening 1 cup butter 1 Tbsp vanilla 7 cups powdered sugar 1. Make a simple syrup by combining sugar and water in a sauce pan over medium heat until boiling, stirring until sugar is dissolved. Remove from heat and allow to cool complet

Recovering An Old Card Table And Making It Usable Again

Image
This card table recover project has been on my to-do list for months. I've been using it as my workspace in the craft room for quite some time, and it sees a lot of abuse. Here it is now, with a neutral cover on it so I can take better pictures for my tutorials. There were dents and dings in the old blue covering from metal tools. And yes, I've used my embossing heat tool on it several times, leaving pretty good scars. The padding underneath the blue cover also made it difficult to keep paper crafts flat when adhering them together, so it was time for something new. That's where a simple vinyl tablecloth comes in handy. The process to recover the table is pretty simple, but I learned a couple of lessons the hard way. I share them with you now. First, don't do this on any surface but a carpet. I tried it on the deck int he sunshine to get better pictures, but all it did was tear up the cover. Second, get a second pair of hands to help you kee

Crafts For Teen Girls To Make

Image
In our teen girls Bible study, we're studying our way through the Proverbs 31 woman and it's been such a blessing to me, as I hope it's been to them. Every month we spend an afternoon or an evening together studying Scripture, making something amazing in the kitchen and creating something that corresponds to the verse we're in. Choosing the crafts each time can be a challenge for several reasons. It needs to be something they can completely finish (or do most of) because once they leave they're probably not going to work on it themselves - that's just the nature of teenagers. Remember? It also needs to be a project that keeps they're attention, is age-appropriate and is cool enough that they'll want to keep it or give it to someone special. But hey, no pressure on the Bible study leader, right? Here are just a few of the projects we've done together in the year we've been meeting. * This month's craft will be the adorable cross stit
