Good morning dear friends! I hope you are all doing well. It has really started to heat up here in Texas- I really can't complain though because it has been pretty mild so far. But we actually are not even to summer yet.
I don't know about you but I have really been being blessed by these lessons. I love to watch both of these videos because there are always gems to be found.
My sister found a youtube channel that has really been speaking to me. I am sharing a link to the video that I got the quote below that really spoke to me. I wanted to share the link just in case you wanted to check this video out.
"It's hard because you've healing things that most people won't touch. You're doing the
emotional work
mental work
spiritual work
and it's heavy. But it means you are growing. "
When you have spent most of your life running to food to soothe you- when you step away from this habit, it's hard.
When I read the 40 Day Sugar Fast book in January of 2024 - this started me in the direction that I needed to go. The direction was the opposite of running to food when the going got hard. And it has caused me to experience those uncomfortable feeling that I have tried to escape for years.
Several years ago, a speaker at a Camp meeting said that God not only wants to heal us physically but mentally, emotionally and spiritually as well. Many times, we run to him for physical healing but then forget He wants to heal all part of us.
Im thankful He wants to heal those other places because truthfully, He is the only one who truly can heal us. So as we go along our journey, let's remember to not only ask him for our physical healing but also for our mental, emotional and our spiritual healing. And praise His name as He does.
So here is the youtube channel that I heard the quote above. I have really been blessed by this awesome lady and all the things she is sharing along her journey.
8 Essential Tips to Extend the Lifespan of Microwaves, Washers And Dryers!
Today's Money saving tip is about taking better care of the things we have so they last longer.
I had decided to go to doing my laundry 1 time a week - with one dark load and one light load, however after watching this video I realized I could be doing harm to my washer by washing too big of loads. I have a top loader wash machine- and according to this guy - it is not a good idea to over load them. So instead of just doing laundry 1 time a week - I will be watching my laundry hamper to decide when I need to wash the load of clothes. So it may be more than one time. But I am using my dryer less and less. Not using the dishwasher at all. I stopped using it, mostly several years ago. Ever so often we run a load but I think during this hot summer - I will just wait till summer time is over to do my next load. I know when I stopped using it I noticed our bill lowered a good amount. And I am perfectly fine with not using it very much. Enjoy the video! :O)
