Getting Rid of the Knots/ nots

Purposeful Prayer



The Knots prayer.........


Dear God
Please untie the knots
that are in my mind,
my heart, and my life.
Remove the have nots,
the can nots, and the do nots,
that I have in my mind.

Erase the will nots,
may nots,
might nots that may find
a home in my heart.

Release me from the could nots
would nots and 
should nots that obstruct my life.

And most of all
 Dear God
I ask that you remove from my mind,
my heart, my life, all the am nots 
that I have allowed to hold me back,
especially the thoughts
that"I am not good enough".

Amen.

The Story of Kale


Healthy Living With Nature



We grow our own kale. We find it very easy to grow.

We use it in our smoothies, chopped up on salads,

steamed as a green vegie, and in our stir fries.

Kale is loaded with good stuff.

It has a nutrient dense makeup. 


It is packed to the hilt with oodles of fibre, Vitamin K, A and C, Folate, 

Potassiumcopper, magnesium, iron, calcium,and antioxidants

How good is that!


Kale contains more iron than beef and more calcium than milk.


Kale's carotenoids and flavenoid antioxidants that can help protect from 

various cancers, can help lower cholesterol, and is also known for its 

antiflammatory properties which work on arthrites, asthma, and 

autoimmune disorders.

It tastes great too!


If you are looking for a detox , look no further.

It can work well with the liver too.

Kale comes from the cabbage family.

It is a year round vegetable.

Make sure your bunch is completely fresh ( we pick ours from the garden).

The old wilted leaves lose flavour and goodness.

Store in a plastic bag. (I find cellophane wrap even better).

Store in the vegetable crisper in the bottom of the fridge.


It can be eaten raw or cooked.

It can be interchanged with silverbeet in recipes.

Treasures In The Garden


What we give out in goodness.......


LIFE is an ECHO.

What we SEND out
comes BACK.

What we SOW
we REAP.

What we GIVE
we GET.

What we SEE
in others
EXISTS in us.

Remember....

LIFE is an ECHO.
 It always gets
back to us.

 So GIVE out GOODNESS!
- chinese proverb


....... will hopefuly return!
