Food Menu Planning

I have some simple tips that will hopefully help you to stick with meal planning over the summer.  Menu planning is a time and money saver. @mferrell

Instagram post 2190797549825329454_40367759 Christmas shopping can get a bit overwhelming and I wanted to help you (and myself) to make it a bit less complicated. I love to find gifts for family and friends that point to Jesus. ⁣

This will not be your typical Christmas gift guide but one I hope will help you and your gift receivers keep their eyes focused on the eternal. My hope also is to simplify your shopping time with many items being purchased from smaller businesses right online.⁣

1 Peter 1:10-12 gives a picture of what it means to look back during Advent:⁣

1 Peter1:12 stands out because it says these saints of the past were serving us. We are on the other side now of Christ’s birth – the waiting for his arrival is over but the reality is we are still waiting for His second coming. We are still waiting for redemption. Advent can be looked at as a season to look back and one to look forward—preparing for Jesus second coming.⁣

Make a joyful noise to the Lord, all the earth!⁣
Serve the Lord with gladness!⁣
Come into his presence with singing!⁣
Know that the Lord, he is God!⁣
It is he who made us, and we are his; we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture.⁣
Enter his gates with thanksgiving,and his courts with praise!⁣
Give thanks to him; bless his name!⁣
For the Lord is good; his steadfast love endures forever, and his faithfulness to all generations.⁣
