Words to Live By...

"In about the same degree as you are helpful, you WILL be happy." ~ Karl Reiland.
 I am posting this quote everywhere I look today....here, on my Facebook, and even on a piece of paper taped to a kitchen cupboard. Whenever my Little Man "helps" me, he looks so happy. When I am sad, lonely, feeling sorry for myself, I will try to remember this quote, and remember I am here on this earth to SERVE OTHERS, just as JESUS did, so that HE will COME and TAKE US HOME WITH HIM! I want to leave this earth....for my Heavenly Home that He is preparing for each and everyone of us. When I feel depressed, sick, tired, too busy, taken for granted, not so loved, used, and washed up, I will do my best to remember BE HELPFUL! Do something for someone else, and you cannot help but be HAPPY. I will pray prayers of THANKFULNESS for what I DO have, and not beg, plead and cry for what I do not. JESUS takes care of me and mine each and everyday, so why am I wasting time worrying about tomorrow or the next day or next month, or even next year? So today, I invite you to write this quote somewhere...blog about it, share my blog, put it in your Facebook status too, whatever you want! Just be HELPFUL and be HAPPY!!!

    Hi, Lisa~

    I made my header in Picnik which I use through a facebook application. I honestly don't know what size it is but I can try and figure it out. When I made it in Picnik, I know I enlarged the collage as large as the space would allow me without deleting any part of my pictures. I hope this helps, if not, just drop me a message and I'll see what I can do!

    Blessings~

  4. Hi again, Lisa~

    I didn't realize you had asked about the red hearts or my wagon header pic before....SORRY!

    The hearts I just copied and pasted from hearts on my old HSB blog, changing the size and the color from small and black to bigger and red.

    As for the header, no, that is not my wagon, but it is my photograph that I took at a local Farmer's Market and touched up on photobucket. Super easy. I use Picnik through facebook and I'm not sure which one I like better! lol

    Blessings~
