Happy Friday! Wohoo!

I can’t wait to display what we have cooking today!

For those of you who have e-mailed me about the mentor/mentee FB post…I will be continuing to pair you up as God leads and as my time allows. I have no doubt that He will provide! Yesterday, my living room floor was covered with 100 printed e-mails and I happily read each one of them. What a blessing it is to see so many women eager to serve and so many women eager to learn about living their lives for Christ, family, and service. I believe everyone should have a mentor in life. I have one and am one…I will talk more about that in a later post

Back to food!

I visiting my friend Courtney over at Women Living Well where we are blending up a delicious “Strawberry Banana’s n Creme Smoothie”- Oh, is this ever tasty! What a special treat especially as the warm weather approaches us!

Aren’t these ladies amazing?! Wowsa!

I wanted to leave you with this story….one of my favorites and one that I think of often.

A story told to me about a woman praying one night to God.

With tears running down her face, she was telling Him how heavy her cross was and she did not think she could bear it anymore.

“Forgive me, Lord, but I just can’t bear this cross anymore”.

God heard her prayer, said it was all right and asked her to come with Him.

She found herself in the presence of Jesus, Who looked upon her with loving eyes.

“Jesus, please forgive me, but I can’t bear this cross anymore”.

Jesus told her that He understood and took the cross from her.

Jesus then showed her a place where there were countless crosses. He told her to look around and find a cross that she thought she could bear. The woman looked upon the crosses available and shuddered. There were huge, dark crosses…some with thorns…some with nails and some too awful to even describe. Then, her eyes fell upon a small cross, one she thought she could bear.

“Jesus”, she said, “I think I can bear that cross”, as she pointed to the small cross she had found.

Jesus smiled at her, placed His hand on her shoulder and replied, “That is the cross you just gave me”.*

When you think your cross is to heavy to bear…

take a look around…

it may not be so heavy, after all.
