A new Website and e-mail address

I am very excited to let you know that I have registered my domain of readysetbloom.com and as of today I have what I am calling my temproary site up and running. This is not what the finished site will look like however it allowed me to get something up right away using a pre-made template the hosting company had available.

you can check out my site at www.readysetbloom.com and my new e-mail address to go along with that is kathy@readysetbloom.com

Both are big steps forward to getting this all wrapped up and ready to go!

Please keep praying. I still have a few legal things to take care of and then I hope to be open for business by the end of the month.

Wow... when I think of all that has happened since the beginning of April... Well I feel my head spinning!

Keep living each day on purpose... knowing that you will never be able to go back and capture that time. Make sure you keep making choices, and realize that to not make a decision to change is to make the decision to stay the same.

Love ya!

Thanks!

I want to take this time to thank all that prayed for the Ladies Retreat last weekend. What a blessing it was to me and to the Ladies that went. God honored your prayers and we had a wonderful weekend! God was present and with us from the moment we left. All of the Ladies that went told me what a wonderful time they had and how much it meant to them to take the time to spend with God in drawing closer to Him and leaving behind all that was troubling them, and distracting them from worshiping Him. 

OK so the chocolate was amazing as well. LOL  

I also want to thank all that stepped up to help lead this event. From those who spoke, led worship, helped with an activity or was a table leader. All of you did a phenomenal job and made this event what it was! Without you I never could have pulled it off. You all were AMAZING!

Thanks again!

A Retreat

Be Still and Know that I am God...

This verse is one that has made a huge impact on my life over the past 8 years. It is one that at first seemed to haunt me. I continuously would hear it in my mind. Yes, I think God was trying to tell me something and I still do. this is a verse that we all seem to want, yet have no idea of how to accomplish it. How do we "be still" in this day and age where everything moves at the speed of light? How can we "be still" with so much to do? How can we "be still" when everyone needs something from us and, well, needs it NOW! 

And let's face it even if... and that is a big IF... we find some time to "be still" how does that help us Know that He is God? I mean really, let's get serious... can anyone know that He is God? isn't He God? Well, after much contemplation on this verse for the past 8 years, I think I may have a clue what this means. I have started to wake up early, and although I have always thought that getting up early must mean you have a serious problem, I am beginning to truly enjoy that time of day when the earth starts to wake up. when God gently nudges the sun over the horizon. I sit on the back porch when most sane people are still in bed dreaming and am learning how to "be Still" and what I have found is that in the stillness and quietness of the early morning, I am beginning to know that He is God. This time has become like a mini retreat. It is a time of refreshing, and sitting in the stillness and knowing that the day is new with no mistakes yet. I am new and have made no mistakes yet. 

Tomorrow morning I will not have much time to enjoy the stillness of the morning and I am already missing it. yet I will be spending that day and the next taking time to taste and see that the Lord is good at the FBCK annual Ladies Retreat. This year is going to be different, for many reasons. yet, I am looking forward to this retreat more than many others, I believe that it is there away from the day to day routines, when we set aside time to spend with Him that we can truly "be Still and Know that He is God"  Join me even if for an hour this week to take time, make time, to "be still and know that I am God"  

Say a prayer for us, ask God to prepare our hearts to receive Him and His blessings this weekend!
