The Word of God


23 A psalm of David.
     The Lord is my shepherd;
I have all that I need.
     He lets me rest in green meadows;
he leads me beside peaceful streams.
     He renews my strength.
He guides me along right paths,
bringing honor to his name.
     Even when I walk
through the darkest valley,*
I will not be afraid,
for you are close beside me.
Your rod and your staff
protect and comfort me.
     You prepare a feast for me
in the presence of my enemies.
You honor me by anointing my head with oil.
My cup overflows with blessings.
     Surely your goodness and unfailing love will pursue me
all the days of my life,
and I will live in the house of the Lord
forever.

* Or the dark valley of death.

Chicken, Chicken Chorizo and New Mexico Hatch Chilies Chili Hahahah



I decided to practice for the Harvest Orangecrest Satellites Chili Round up!

Turned out yummy!  I'll post recipe later!


When I was in Chemo my friend Susan came and brought chicken breasts..she roasted them for us to have around to Munchies on! Today bone on chicken breasts are 99 cents at Staters! Watch for there sales on this item, they have it often.  I have 2 full trays roasting at 375 for about 1 hour.....just until pink is gone! I seasoned it w/Evoo..lightly sprinkle with  Paprika for color, Lawrys season salt and a little Pico de Gallo...its all purpose chicken for all purpose eatin! Haha I will shred it and freeze some! Go get some! Haha

I used this shredded chicken in Chicken Soup, Roasted Chicken Sandwiches with Pesto Mayo and Smoked Gouda cheese, and sauteed with aromatics to make Nachos!! <3 We will be making Enchilada Casserole with the bulk of it!! <3

Monica's Munchies

I have learned many things along this rocky road called life! The most important thing I've learned is that I needed a Savior long ago! I felt so lost before the Lord found me and I opened up my heart to Him. Many things were coming at me, not the least of which was a voice telling me that my life wasn't worth going on for! When the Lord found me, He saved me from this lying voice! I invited Him into my home and my heart! From then on it's been Him and I in all things. My hope for you is that if you are on that same rocky road that I was on, empty, wondering if it's worth it to go on, you too will invite the Lord to save you. He will show you that your life is worth living for Him!
