Book Giveaway! Prophetic Blessing by John Hagee

The Power of the Prophetic Blessing by John Hagee.

This is going to be one of about 5 book giveaways that I have ready to share with you!
All you have to do is leave a comment and please leave your e-mail so that I can let you know if you are a winner.

Bestselling author and pastor John Hagee’s new Bible prophecy book, The Power of the Prophetic Blessing, offers an exciting message of encouragement and blessing for today and for generations to come.

He says, “You have the ability, through the power of the blessing, to revolutionize your life. Every blessing recorded in Scripture is available to you for the asking. These blessings have the power to resurrect your dead marriage, bring supernatural joy, and provide you peace of mind.”

For God’s people, prophecy is a word of hope, deliverance, bounty, and richness for their life and family. When God blesses man, it is to bestow good health, abundant success, and prosperity, both materially and spiritually. Hagee shows how this powerful prophetic message of blessing flows throughout the Bible and can be used today to create an abundant and prosperous life. The Power of the Prophetic Blessing demonstrates your God-given power to prosper in challenging times. You were born to be blessed!

I would like to thank Worthy Publishing for sending me a copy for myself and also including a lovely copy for one of my readers!

I will draw a name on Weds. Please feel free to share this giveaway with your friends.

In the sequel to Belonging, Robin Lee Hatcher weaves a story of romance in the old west. With her dead husband’s half-brother threatening to take her Wyoming ranch, Julia Grace and drifter Hugh Brennan fight to hold on to her livelihood. Can two wounded hearts find a way to learn to trust again?

So if you would like to be put in the hat to win this book please leave me a comment and how to get ahold of you.

Amos the chicken.... who is a rooster.

So I thought I would share some of the animals again with you as it has been awhile. Some of the animals have changed alot.
So remember when my friend Cris called in a panic as she had gotten baby chicks and was thinking they were all hens. Well then getting ready to leave for work she said she heard them crow.
So they came to live with us..... I never heard any of the three crow until this last week. Then I heard Amos go off.....it was not pretty at first. Just really loud, and totally out of tune! But later he was in the yard and I saw and heard him crow..... he was having fun with it.

Then the other night Mikhaila comes in with Amos and yes he likes to have his handsome comb petted and his little wattle rubbed! What a baby! Quite the ham for the camera too I might add!

More visual delights from Gingerbread Snowflakes!

Spooner Advocate Column- December 6, 2012

Good Morning their friends- Sorry for missing the column last week,  with a broke down car I was not able to make it into town to get this to the Advocate. Don’t you just love how dependent we are on technology?? A huge thank you goes out to the Tripp family for helping me out with transportation, I appreciate neighbors like you!

So here I sit with a car that will not run. What am I to do? First I have to just think, well it could be worse. I am stranded at home, not on the road. Does it put a crimp in my day? Sure does! I am glad my daughter rides the school bus- I used to drive her into school everyday- at least that is not on my plate today. What do others do when they are without  a car? A lot of people do not have a car at all. What do they do?? So I called Namekagon Transit, they are the little white buses that you see going around from Hayward to Spooner, other destinations. So if you are like me and are having an issue with your car, or if you are carless- you can call Namekagon and schedule a ride. You do have to call 24 hours in advance to set-up a pick-up, the lady I talked to was very nice and walked me through the process. I have to say I think the price is good, I just wanted to let people know that this is an option. You never know when you would like to do some shopping or have an appointment and can’t get a ride with someone you know. To schedule a pick-up call 715-634-6633 or toll-free 866-295-9599
