Ever checked out HOUSE PARTY?



HOUSE PARTY is a ton of fun. All you have to do is apply to host a party and wait to see if you're chosen!

I did the Velveeta party and Barilla pasta party last year and we had a blast. If you're chosen, a box of goodies is sent to you, to help you host your party! For the Barilla party, we received coupons for free jars of Barilla sauce, boxes of pasta, an Italian music cd, favors to give out at the party, a guide to Italy, wine glass charms and more!

You do all of your party planning on the House Party website and when the party is over, you can update pictures from your event.
I applied to approximately 10 different parties last year and was chosen for 2 of them. Worth the try!

Go HERE to check out their website and the current parties you can apply for.
I just applied for Oscar Mayer and Hasbro Game Night!

Today's Devotional


Words - Do They Matter?

James 1:26 If anyone among you thinks he is religious, and does not bridle his tongue but deceives his own heart, this one's religion is useless.

I heard a teenager from a Christian family declare, "My mom doesn't think swear words are bad." He then indicated which words she found acceptable - words that have long been considered inappropriate. Society's standard of language has declined in recent years, but we don't have to decline with it.
As we strive to be "very careful...how [we] live" (Eph 5:15 NIV), we should think about how to honor God with our words.
We please the Lord with our tongue when we show discernment. "He who restrains his lips is wise," Proverbs 10:19 reminds us.
When we do speak, we are to filter the words that escape our lips: "Whoever guards his mouth and tongue keeps his soul from troubles" (21:23).
It is important to use kind, positive words - even to address tough subjects. "A harsh word stirs up anger," but "the tongue of the wise uses knowledge rightly" (Prov 15:1-2).
Finally, avoid words that reflect poorly on who we are as God's children. Paul's admonition to "let no corrupt word proceed out of your mouth" (Eph 4:29) sets a strong standard for the righteous use of words.
To honor God in each part of life, use words that are pleasing and acceptable to a holy God. -Dave Branon, Our Daily Bread devotional

This devotional probably speaks to a lot of us, including myself. I do not use swear words, but other words can be just as hurtful and harsh. I do want to honor God in each part of my life and to do so, I need to make sure my tongue is tamed.
