What is Goals For Girls?
I made Goals for Girls a once a month event..
Your Kitchen~The Heart of Your Home
~The Kitchen Truly is the Heart of Home~
Everyone loves walking into the kitchen and finding something delicious or refreshing to eat. The most wonderful things are created in kitchens! Everyone walks in and out of the kitchen all day… (in my house at least) The kitchen is the most beautiful room in a house, why? Because so much goes on in there! Little tummies get fed, loved ones are blessed,..
“God Imparts Himself to Us”
The Power of Our Prayers
A woman’s prayers are so important and precious to God and her family. The other day I kept reminding myself to pray for two specific things that were really weighing on my heart. Within the next 24 hours God had answered and blessed both of my prayer petitions! I am not saying that if you avidly pray that God will answer your prayers the next day; but rather there is power in our prayers!..
The Sky, not the Grave, is our Goal.
Anna Spafford later spoke of being sucked violently downward. Baby Tanetta was torn from her arms by a collision with some heavy debris, with a blow so violent that Anna’s arm was severely bruised. She flailed at the water trying to catch her baby. Anna caught Tanetta’s gown for just a moment before another smashing blow tore the little girl out of her arms forever. Reaching out again, all she..
Whisper Thy Peace to My Soul
As soon as he received Anna’s telegram, Horatio left Chicago without delay to bring his wife home. Sailing across the Atlantic Ocean the captain of the ship called Horatio to the bridge. He informed Horatio that “A careful reckoning has been made and I believe we are now passing the place where the Ville du Havre was wrecked. The water is three miles deep.” That night, alone in his cabin..
The Story Continues…
On November 22, 1873 the steamer Ville du Havre was struck by a British iron sailing ship, the Lockhearn. The steamer Ville du Havre, with Anna Spafford and her daughters aboard, sank within twelve minutes in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean. Only 81 of the 307 passengers and crew members survived this tragic shipwreck.
Even though the Lockhearn was in danger of sinking the unconscious Anna..
Though Trials Should Come…
In 1873 Anna Spafford’s health was failing and hoping to put behind the tragic loss of their son and the fire and to benefit Anna’s health, the Spaffords planned a trip to Europe. They would sail on the French steamer Ville du Havre to Europe with their four daughters. Spafford not only wanted to visit Europe but he wanted to assist Evangelists Dwight L. Moody and Ira D. Sankey in a revival..
Qualities of a Good Husband
“Daughter! Get you an honest man for a husband, and keep him honest. No matter whether he is rich, provided he be independent. Regard the honor and moral character of the man more than all other circumstances. Think of no other greatness but that of the soul, no other riches but those of the heart. An honest, sensible, humane man, above all the littleness of vanity and extravagances of..
It Is Well With My Soul
In the late 1860s life was good for Horatio G. Spafford and his wife Anna. They were living in a north side suburb of Chicago with their five children, Annie, Maggie, Bessie, Tanetta and Horatio, Jr. However, in 1870 their faith was tested by tragedy. Their four year old son, Horatio, Jr., died of scarlet fever. The Spaffords were devastated. In October of 1871 when the Great Chicago Fire broke..
