You could make some hot chocolate mix and put it in a baggie, put some mini marshmallows in a baggie, then put them in a Christmas mug. Wrap it up in celephane wrap and add a candy cane or 2. Make sure you put directions on it. Makes a cute, inexpensive gift and who doesn't like hot chocolate on a cold winter day? ... View related article. |

You might try using carpet tape. You can buy it at lowes or home depot. It's a double-sided masking tape. I've had good luck with it myself. ... View related article. |

| RE: Planting Spider Plant Babies |
|
That's a good idea! I have a couple of large spider plants I keep outside then bring in for the winter. Last Christmas for gifts for the 20 or so ladies at church I planted the "babies" in pretty ceramic cups or mugs I bought at the thrift store or at yard sales and I tied a red ribbon around the cup. They made very nice and inexpensive Christmas gifts! ... View related article. |

| RE: Dealing with a Verbally Abusive Spouse |
I am SO proud of you! I want to share with you something that happened when I was married to my ex (who was also verbally abusive). One night I didn't feel like praying for my husband because I was so angry at him, but I knew I should pray, I just poured my heart out to God and told Him I didn't want to pray and told Him how angry I was. God spoke to me and said that anger was an energy and if I would give Him that anger, He would bless me. So I gave God all my anger, and then to my surprise, I felt so much energy and so much love for my husband that I sat down and wrote him a love letter. I told him that I forgave him for everything he had ever done to me in the past, present, and even in the future. I told him I loved him unconditionally. And then I told him what a wonderful person he was. I left it on the kitchen table for him to find when he got home. When I woke up the next morning God spoke to me again and told me to tell my ex that that love letter was from Him, so I told my ex that I wanted him to read the letter again, this time imagining that it came from God. Well, it made quite an impact on him, to say the least!
I guess what I'm saying is, forgiveness is the only way to heal your hurts. If you harbor unforgiveness and bitterness, it can tear you up inside. You have done well to let the Lord take care of it for you! Hang in there -- "With the Lord nothing is impossible!"
