My verse for this week

"Fear of man will prove to be a snare,
but whoever trusts in the LORD is kept safe."
Proverbs 29:25

This is speaking volumes to me right now. It's amazing how a Scripture can be read over and over again, and then all the sudden it hits you right at the exact time you need it.

When working the crossword puzzles of life, you will find the 'solutions' in the Bible.

Chicken Humor

A six-year-old boy told his father he wanted to marry the little girl across the street.
The father, being modern and well-schooled in handling children, hid his smile.

'That's a serious step,' he said. 'Have you thought it out completely?'

Yes,' his young son answered. 'We can spend one week in my room and the next
in hers. It's right across the street, so I can run home if I get scared of the dark.'
'How about transportation? ' the father asked.

'I have my wagon, and we both have our tricycles,' the little boy answered.
The boy had an answer to every question the father raised.

Finally, in exasperation, his dad asked, 'What about babies? When you're
married, you're liable to have babies, you know.'

'We've thought about that, too,' the little boy replied. 'We're not going to
have babies. Every time she lays an egg, I'm going to step on it!'

No title needed for this one

Oh, is that a gluten filled wheat cookie? lol.  Some days I feel like this.

Philippians 4:13 "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me."

You too can have that same strength, with a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. He is knocking at the door of your heart, will you open it?

Recipe: Gluten-Free & Dairy-Free Applesauce Muffins

Mini muffins

I just took these out of the oven!! They are YUMMY!! I made a pan of mini and also a pan of regular size. I like to keep things like this in the freezer for grabbing a quick snack or a quick dessert for me at church fellowships. I tweaked it a bit, I used canola oil instead of coconut, added 1 cup of sugar instead of 3/4 (we like sweet stuff around here ;-) and left out the nuts.
These are NOT grainy or gritty like some I've made. I got them from the Gluten Free Homemaker blog

Regular size muffins

Try these out they are wonderful! A great fall treat.

Leviticus 26:4

Then I will give you rain in due season, and the land shall yield her increase, and the trees of the field shall yield their fruit. We are in the rainy season of the year and the trees are abundantly full of apples, what a way to celebrate fall.

UPDATE ON THESE IN THE FREEZER! 10/5/11
So good! I've been eating them frozen and they are great, they have an awesome taste and texture.
