  • PAY IT FORWARD

    Quite awhile ago, the girls and I watched a movie titled Pay It Forward. It was a great movie that touched me at the time. Not long ago I found a DVD copy at a yard sale.

    Imagine my surprise, and thrill, when I saw a Pay-It-Forward challenge on Mrs. Cuddles' blog. I am excited to be participating and challenging my readers to participate in this challenge. Here are the rules:

    • First, announce this in a post on my blog!   
    • Commit to making 3 handmade items and ship to 3 special readers. 
    • There is NO $ amount--It's the personal time and love that make the difference! 
    • The 1st 3 commentators who agree to also "Pay it Forward" will receive a Handmade gift in the mail from me.
    • I have 365 days to make/ship my handmade goodie! (Although I promise it will be most likely much sooner!)
    • The 3 commentators then post this challenge on their blog and we keep the "Pay it Forward" blessing going and going and going!

    What an opportunity to focus outward and bless others. Won't you join me in the challenge?

    Pay It Forwards are so much fun! I have participated in them in the past, and what a blessing it was to send something to someone else! I would love to participate in yours! I have posted about it on my blog!

    Hello Mrs. Margie,
    You made your site simple yet elegant. The pictures are a nice touch. I see that you have a wide variety of interests and observations here!
    I’m sending an important message to people from Jehovah God that is in the Bible"The wise men are put to shame, they are dismayed and taken: lo, they have rejected the word of Jehovah; and what manner of wisdom is in them? (Jeremiah 8:9) (ASV)

    Thank you for all your sweet comments! How are things going on your end?? I'm still praying. My life is still uncertain in the marriage department but I am trying to pray through each day.

    I haven't been by in ages...so I've missed quite a bit around xanga! 

    Wow...you had snow in Vegas!!...bet that was hard to believe, but fun for you all!

    I remember the movie Pay it Forward...very good...and what a cool idea to do that here!  I don't really make things but I will definitely give this some thought.

    Hope all's well...take care!

    Hi Margie,

    I am sorry to inform you that I will not be able to complete my side of the Pay It Forward. I am not able to make and send anything at this time. I hope you will understand. Please don't feel that you have to send me anything in return.

    Thanks for understanding!

    Margie...how are you doing?  It seems over the last year that both of us have stopped posting (at least on a regular basis).  I pray you and your family are well.  Hope to hear from you soon.
