It Was A Good Day

   Today I had 5 ladies over for lunch and it was a good day!  Only one of the five I know well.  The other four are Moms of preschoolers where my twins go to preschool.  I felt that calling to invite them a few weeks ago and really fought it.  I really don't know them at all and thought to myself why would they come here?  They don't even know me.  I was obedient though and made little invitations.  To my surprise only one lady didn't come and that was because she had to work.  I decided that if I was going to do it at all I would do it right. 

  •  Each lady enjoyed a spa treatment today.  I made a mixture of mineral oil and lavender essential oil.  I spooned out a tablespoon of the mineral oil mixture and then spooned a teaspoon of sugar into their hands.  I instructed them to rub it into the fronts and backs of their hands.  They then washed with some soap and I gave them some sweet pea scented hand lotion.  They seemed to really enjoy that.  I also gave them a shower gel and puff to take home.  They were very appreciative.  I really love making others feel good. 

     For lunch we had tuna salad and chicken salad on my homemade herbed bread.  I had leaf lettuce and cheese for them to add to their bread.  We had deviled eggs and a mexican dip with tortillas.  For dessert I made the ice cream cake dessert and we sipped on lemonade as our beverage. 

     The conversation was naturally about our little ones but I was able to give a testimony about how God has changed my life.    I also love any opportunity to share God with others.  I invited them to a Bible Study I'm going to host here in two weeks.  This morning we were strangers and this afternoons friends.  How can that happen?  Only by God....................

     

    Have a blessed weekend!

This sounded so wonderful!! I know you and your new friends had a wonderful time! Everything looked lovely and your dessert looks delicious!
I have friends that I meet with every Friday and our friendships have now turned into sister-ships! I hope the same thing will happen for you and your friends!
Sincerely,
Sharon
