Looking toward the Future after Graduation!

My lovely daughter Graduated this last weekend. She got her AA from the local Community College at the same time as her HS diploma. She worked so hard and was so dedicated to finishing all that was put before her, even though we had a really rough year. Peace!

For God is not a God of confusion but of peace.1 Corinthians 14:33a

If you're looking for God to show you something clearly, don't over-pollute what He's showing you with the thoughts and reasoning of your own mind. God has given you a mind to use, and at the same time, He has given you the Holy Spirit to help, guide and discern what is of Him and what is of the flesh. Use both, but rely most on the unchanging nature of God to ultimately guide you in the way that you should go.

Caramel Sauce Fast, Easy and Extra Yummy!

Fast, Easy and Very Extra Yummy! I don't cook too often and when I do it is usually something extra sugar and sweet. This sauce came about after I was successful in creating the fudge sauce that is so perfect and yummy. Why not try caramel, they actually go together very well, even in the same dish of ice cream.... Anyway here is how to make it.

Assemble and measure out all the ingredients,, so they will be close at hand.

Wire Whisk
Sauce pan
3 large Marshmallows
3 Tablespoons Butter (real)
1/2 Cup Brown Sugar
3 Tablespoons Milk (whole)

Melt the butter with marshmallows over a medium heat, whisk in the sugar, when added it will become a big glob and gritty. Add the milk, whisk till fully combined, you have to whisk pretty vigorously to get the glob totally incorporated. Allow it to simmer just a minute whisking every few seconds. When it bubbles thickly... add a pinch of salt, whisk and whisk... allow it to cook for a few minutes to fully develop the rich caramel flavor.

Operation Shoebox

http://www.operationshoebox.com/

Yep we did it we collected enough stuff to fill a large flat rate priority box! And off it goes... I hope it helps with comfort and Love from home...

The women of Christian Life Center have been collecting special items of soap, shampoo, toothpaste and other "comfort items", those mini versions that you get from hotels and when you travel. The shoebox people make up comfort kits and forward them on to the field! What a great way to make our guys feel more loved. All the best of good thoughts and prayers and sincere Thanks go with each item.
