"The unsearchable riches of Christ."-Ephesians 3:8
    
    My Master has riches beyond the count of arithmetic, the measurement of reason, the dream of imagination, or the eloquence of words. They are unsearchable! You may look, and study, and weigh, but Jesus is a greater Saviour than you think Him to be when your thoughts are at the greatest. My Lord is more ready to pardon than you to sin, more able to forgive than you to transgress. My Master is more willing to supply your wants than you are to confess them. Never tolerate low thoughts of my Lord Jesus. When you put the crown on His head, you will only crown Him with silver when He deserves gold. My Master has riches of happiness to bestow upon you now. He can make you to lie down in green pastures, and lead you beside still waters. There is no music like the music of His pipe, when He is the Shepherd and you are the sheep, and you lie down at His feet. There is no love like His, neither earth nor heaven can match it. To know Christ and to be found in Him-oh! this is life, this is joy, this is marrow and fatness, wine on the lees well refined. My Master does not treat His servants churlishly; He gives to them as a king giveth to a king; He gives them two heavens-a heaven below in serving Him here, and a heaven above in delighting in Him for ever. His unsearchable riches will be best known in eternity. He will give you on the way to heaven all you need; your place of defence shall be the munitions of rocks, your bread shall be given you, and your waters shall be sure; but it is there, THERE, where you shall hear the song of them that triumph, the shout of them that feast, and shall have a face-to-face view of the glorious and beloved One. The unsearchable riches of Christ! This is the tune for the minstrels of earth, and the song for the harpers of heaven. Lord, teach us more and more of Jesus, and we will tell out the good news to others.

Some accomplishment...

Handmade by Heidi


Last night was the first of two sew-in nights for Dec. next Friday is the second.  Don't know what a sew-in is? well then you need to head over to Heidi's site here to get the details.  Last night was kind of crazy, but I did manage to get some stitches in in-between times.

I took my daughter to work at 6 pm and hubby was home so I knew I wouldn't have a real lot of time to do much sewing, sew I didn't bother setting up the sewing machine instead I opted to work on the cross-stitch.  After taking daughter to work I hopped into my sweats and got comfy and started stitching I stitched about two hours then hubby and I watched a movie and after the movie I stitched another hour.  here is what I accomplished...

I plan to do FNSI next week too.  I'll probably continue on with cross-stitch as we are going out-of-town to pick up daughter from airport WOOHOO!!!  can't very well take the sewing machine in the car sew the cross-stitch will do while I pass the time away setting in the car.
