This email makes your coffee taste better when your images are turned on. :-) |
Blessings on you from the Elliott family! Thank you for subscribing, and we hope you enjoy today’s newsletter. We are made in the image of a Creator, and although we all have different interests and abilities, there is not a single human who does not find joy in creating. Let's talk today about how to promote creativity in our
homes. My goal is to bring a little bit of Scripture, a sprinkle of encouragement, and a dash of hope to your day. I love a good cup of coffee (brewed like this), but if some other drink is more your style, I'm sure that will work. The point is for you to take a break from crazy living, just long enough for a sip of joy.

They had several other great ideas, but I’ve been trying to see if I could find more ideas straight from Scripture. I’ve been
amazed at how many conversation-starting ideas the Bible has to offer! (Why should it surprise me that God is so creative?) Read More

Well, I decided to treat us to some half white/half wheat bread today. This is a rare treat for us; we usually make only whole wheat. But my friend Erma gave me a cookbook from her
Mennonite family, and I wanted to try this recipe, originally submitted by Mrs. Ivan Yoder (Esther). Get the Recipe |
Thank you for taking time to sip coffee with me. I hope your day is tov—good and accomplishing what the Creator designed you for.
