One of my favorite verses from God's word.

Jeremiah 29:11-13 New King James Version (NKJV)

11 For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope. 12 Then you will call upon Me and go and pray to Me, and I will listen to you. 13 And you will seek Me and find Me, when you search for Me with all your heart.

Can anything ever separate us from Christ’s love? Does it mean he no longer loves us if we have trouble or calamity, or are persecuted, or hungry, or destitute, or in danger, or threatened with death? No, despite all these things, overwhelming victory is ours through Christ, who loved us.
Romans 8:35,37 NLT

HC Tea Time Debut -You Are So Beau-Tea-Ful To Me

Good morning!
I just love tea pots and cups probably because of my mother.
She had a collection of not only beautiful floral tea cups
that she kept in a glass doored cabinet but she also
had quite a collection of unusual tea sets (the teapot, creamer and sugar).  I used to love just looking at them.
She used to take me down the street to a neighbor's house who would serve us tea in fancy cups and then they would talk while I played with our neighbor's button collection tin.
I loved the smell of my neighbor's house, it smelled
like a tea house.  
I might just tell you, my mom was from Texas where
they drink a lot of sweet tea.  My mom gave me sweet tea
in my baby bottle.  Tea has been a "thing"
for me ever since.  I do not drink it with sugar anymore
thank goodness or I'd be as big as a house but I still LOVE
my tea hot or iced.

I love baby roses or rose buds, they are my favorite!
