LIVE LOCAL
I haven't mentioned this in awhile. As a reminder to all of us, don't forget to Shop Local. Make relationships with local farmers for meat and vegetables. Check out the artisan breads! So yummy! Farm to table food is delicious!
This is important in the days that we are living in. There are those who want to destroy our food sources. We have all seen it escalate over the last three years.
We picked up these absolutely delicious cherry tomatoes from one of our local producer farmers market. So Yummy and Beautiful. Part of God's bounty!
And these sweet jewelry pieces below weren't made in China! How can you go to a Farmer's Market and not pickup some handmade jewelry!
The earrings were made by two young teenage sisters. Their older brother was there helping and taking in the cash. A great example of an entrepreneurial spirit. And they love Jesus too!
Farmer's Markets are an easy way to support local business. I'm sure there is one near you!

SIGNS OF THE TIMES
Pastor Mark Kirk hits it out of the park!
THE WORD
“With the Lord’s authority I say this: Live no longer as the Gentiles do, for they are hopelessly confused.
Their minds are full of darkness; they wander far from the life God gives because they have closed their minds and hardened their hearts against him.
They have no sense of shame. They live for lustful pleasure and eagerly practice every kind of impurity.
But that isn’t what you learned about Christ.
Since you have heard about Jesus and have learned the truth that comes from him,
throw off your old sinful nature and your former way of life, which is corrupted by lust and deception.
Instead, let the Spirit renew your thoughts and attitudes.
Put on your new nature, created to be like God—truly righteous and holy.”
Ephesians 4:17-24 NLT
Help us, O Lord, according to Your Word!
Blessings!
