Texas Bounty





     Well Karla is back safely from her trip to Austin and that was more than enough to satisfy me. She brought me back a bounty of blessings in addition to herself.  Fresh cinnamon bread from Collin St. Bakery, an Austin coffee mug from Starbucks and a Hook'em Horns tshirt.
     Psalm 128; 1-2  ''Blessed are all who fear the Lord, who walk in obedience to him. You will eat the fruit of your labor; blessings and prosperity will be yours.''
     I am blessed with very generous friends in my life and my cup runs over continuously. ''Generosity is a matter of the heart and a way of life. With a focus on others, giving is to be done freely and cheerfully. People with this attitude trust God to meet their needs and are set free to give away even what they long to keep. No matter how little we have, the Lord wants us to be magnanimous people.'' [intouch.org]  Karla often says 'it's all about you friend' and as nice as that would be to indulge in, being generous should be a give and take relationship.

  2. It is great to have a friend like Karla, you may need some help in buying her a tee shirt on your next outting, and I will be there. Love you -- Dad

  3. "Give, and it will be given to you. Good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over, will be put into your lap. For with the measure you use it will be measured back to you.” Luke 6:38. Just a little measure in return from only one of those to whom you give so much. I'm so thankful for Karla, and for you.

  4. I just love that Karla. What an example of selflessness. And you look beautiful in your hook-em horns shirt. That is a great color for you.

  5. What a friend we have in you, dear Angie. And Karla is just so neat....so thankful for you for her. Charity is right. This so pains me to say it, but that is a great color for you. Personally, I think red fits you even better, but I'll bet you might not find too many Razorback shirts in Texas. Hope you are enjoying all your "loot"....you receive it because you are so loveable!! And such a blessing to all who know you....T.
