Lake Fayetteville

The kids and I had a busy day of errands a couple of weeks ago and needed to get out of the car!  The weather was wonderful so we pulled in to Lake Fayetteville for a walk.  The kids had never walked there and were delighted to find the waterfall.
 They loved climbing on the rocks and with all the rain we had recently the creek was swift and beautiful.
I brought along a book I checked out from the library.  It was very good.  
 We left feeling calm and refreshed.  It is amazing what Nature can do for us.

Blackberry Winter

Old timer's call this cold snap Blackberry Winter. This is due to the blooms on the blackberry bushes. They are loaded this year and we should have bumper crops. Yummy.


 
I hope your Mother's Day was fantastic.  I was treated like a queen.  I was served a big breakfast, grilled fish and veggies for lunch.  My girls bought me beautiful flowers and my boys bought me a new printer.  Woo Hoo.  Then we all watched The Blind Side and lounged until church.  Thanks for a fabulous day.  I have a wonderful family.

Healing Ointment and Flowers


I just completed a batch of healing ointment.  This is an easy process that takes a couple of weeks.  The healing ointment contains calendula blossoms, oregon grape root, comfrey root and lavender oil.  The oil extract was made with grapeseed oil and the oinment completed with beeswax. 
These are flower arrangements I made for Mother's Day.  Flower arranging has become a favorite past time for me.  I enjoy choosing colors and filler.  I am not sure if you can tell but I love bright contrasting colors.  Yellow makes me happy :).


I made some labels for my ointment.  I would like to find round labels to fit my tins.  I will have to investigate that.

Grateful


Do you ever feel as if Yahweh has put you in the right place at the right time?  I am humbled by the work He has permitted me to do.  I had two wonderful healings in my office this week.  The body's amazing ability to heal itself is incredible!  I am humbled to be a servant to teach others how to facilitate healing in their bodies.  I am humbled by the gratitude given to me by these people.  I am grateful for my introduction to Natural Health so that I can share that with others.
