Thinking of you today...

Hi,

Just wanted you to know you are thought of today and I prayed for you...

I hope you are having a beautiful day filled with joy and love. 

I have been having a tough time lately and this passage from "Women's Daily Devotional" has helped. I wanted to share it with you too.

Have you ever thought about your "problem" feeling too big and powerful it seems to make your stuck? Like the problem is a huge brick wall and you can't see past it or around it?

Look at what Paul says about the Christians in Colossae, "For we have heard of your faith in Christ Jesus and your love for all of God's people, which come from your confident hope of what God has reserved for you in heaven. You have had this expectation ever since you first heard the truth of the Good News." (Colossians 1:4-5, NLT)

They KNEW their ending and it allowed them to live freely, enjoying the adventure. Was it easy for them? No! But their HOPE was in the future and it kept them from quitting or getting discouraged. Let us live like the Colossians with CONFIDENT HOPE because we too, know our ending!

Question: Can you place full trust in our Lord today and let Him take care of your worries?


Thank you for sharing and I look forward to seeing you!  May you have a blessed day!


Lots of love,

Jen

Desk Shopping

Has this ever happened to you?

Have you gone to the store with intentions of buying a few things and then when you are at the check out counter you realize you have double the stuff you actually wanted to buy?

That is because the stores spend a lot of money studying you and people like you to figure out your buying habits.

Have you ever been in an isle or maybe the produce section and while you pick out your fruit, "Oh look! there is a smoothie mix". You say to yourself, "yum, I have been wanting a smoothie, a smoothie would be good, I could save so much money if I just bought the mix and made it my self, smoothies in the store are so expensive. If I made my own, I would eat more fruit and vegetables each day."... then that leads to... "Oh, super! There is a deal on the smoothie mixes...'buy 4 and get the 5th free', good deal."

So you pull a few off the display and throw them into the cart. Then as you move along, there is fresh squeezed juice right there. "Oh, that would be good. I heard pomegranate juice is really good for you." You throw that in the basket too.

Then you head around the corner and you look for deodorant, and say your kids with you and right at their eye level they have all the super heroes and Barbi lotions, soaps, tooth brushes, and such, colorfully packaged. Your kids start asking for some. Okay, they beg for them....

You let them each add one to the cart and you keep moseying through the store.

Did you know that the store anticipates you will at least spend, on average, $25-30 more than you intended when you came in. That is $100 - $160 more a month!

I know I have been known not only to buy the impulse items not on my list, but am known to also "upgrade". "Oh, if it is $2.66 for one and it is $5 for two, I may as well just get two," and into the cart that "deal" goes.

Have you noticed that stores hardly advertise the single price of something, anymore - especially on popular items ?

It is always, "$10.99 for 2" or "15.99 for the club pack".

Great isn't it! It gives you a warm fuzzy feeling know you are getting a great deal... or at least you think you are while you are there shopping.

A week later as you are throwing the stale or left over stuff out and blaming your significant other for not eating the fruit you bought or buying the 3rd round of "this is a 'good deal' kind of chips" because the kids have gotten sick of the ones you bought three weeks ago.

Isn't shopping fun!!

Not exactly... I didn't realize how much I was wasting until I switched my house over to shopping from my desk without the influence of advertising, shopping displays, enticing "sale" offers, and without the rush of just getting through the store isles with two "mini" salespeople (my kids) yapping at my side about how much they need and "just love" this new cereal!

Yes, Desk Shopping is my new "IT" thing and the reason why I want to share it with you!Save time, money, and your sanity... Desk Shop!
