Tip of the Day 3/22/12

Spring Cleaning Day 3. Your house should be starting to smell fresh and Spring like. The perfect next step is to wash, place in dryer with "Dryel", or vacuum curtains and wash the mini blinds. While they are down wash the inside of the windows. To easily wash non-wood mini blinds take them outside and spray with vinegar water to cut the film build up. Hose off and leave to dry. Gently scrub using an old toothbrush if needed.

Word for Today, Quiet: The noise of life can take a toll on our spirit. We seek solitude whether by a walk on the beach or calming music. Sometimes we seek to hear nothing except the birds singing. Loud people get on our nerves and we seek out those that are gentler in their speech and behavior. This morning I read a passage in the Bible that showed me quietness is a part of righteousness. Do people enjoy being with you? Maybe we need to consider our volume level. "...your inner self, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit which is of great worth in God's sight. The work of righteousness will be peace, and the effect of righteousness, quietness and assurance forever." May your day be filled with quietness and peace hearing God's still quiet voice.
