Will you be rewarded?
I became a Pampered Chef Consultant in August. I love my new
business despite almost cutting the tip of my finger off at my first show! Who
wouldn't? I set my own hours, order lots of stuff with other people's money and reward my
hosts. Best of all, I get paid for having so much fun. This isn't a plug for my
business, okay, maybe it is but God certainly gave me a message this week
through The Pampered Chef!
This is how the Pampered Chef Host Opportunity works. I coach you on several things; number of people to invite to your show, getting outside orders, what to cook at your show to get the most sales and how many sales you need to get the rewards you want. The larger your sales, the higher the rewards. The most important thing to understand is you have to have $200 in sales to get rewarded. No exceptions!
The last 3 months have been very interesting as I've watched how some hosts are very eager, work hard and exceed their expectations of rewards. I've had some hosts sell just over $200 to barely get the reward. I've had one host that didn't meet the $200. Instead of not rewarding her, I purchased the dollar amount she needed to get her reward.
The Bible says in Proverbs 24:14 "So shall the knowledge of wisdom be unto thy soul: when thou hast found it, then there shall be a reward, and thy expectation shall not be cut off." Here's the Pampered Chef for the soul message. We host our own soul. Ministers and others coach us how to get the reward. We know the reward requires the forgiveness of Jesus. No exceptions! Some will give their whole heart and life to him for the greatest reward. Some will give him their sins to receive forgiveness narrowly escaping but still get the reward. Then sadly, some will totally disregard the coaching, oral and written, missing the reward forever. We can't obtain the reward alone. We will always come up short. Jesus gave the amount we can't purchase. Will you be rewarded?
Do you like to be pampered? I can pamper you with kitchen tools. Want the ultimate pamper? A reward of salvation from Jesus! He has all the right spiritual tools to cook you well done. He is the recipe for reward and great expectation!

10 Ways You Can tell You Are A Senior Citizen
1. The neighbors can hear what TV show you're watching three houses down. If your volume is 40+, it may be time to look into a hearing aid.
2. You start your automatic coffee maker to come on 10 minutes AFTER you plan to get up because it will take you at least 10 minutes to get out of bed and find your way to the kitchen.
3. You have a pair of magnifying glasses in every room of the house and one pair on your person and you still can't find your glasses.
4. You need to do laundry more often due to annoying sneeze peeing and the fact you can't seem to eat anything without spilling it down the front of your shirt.
5. You stop to look at that odd person you saw in the mirror and for the first minute or so you don't recognize yourself.
6. Your clothes begin to resemble your parents. If you're a girl, you need sunglasses to keep from squinting choosing an outfit from your closet. You know how mom loves the shiny stuff. If you're a guy, you need a belt to hold up the jeans your booty used to support and an extra long shirt to hide your belly.
7. You begin to floss more because now you realize these teeth need to last you a lifetime.
8. You finally don't need to shave your legs every day. YES! My mom always told me leg hair would stop growing when I got old. She was right!
9. There's a down side to less leg hair....more facial hair. This wouldn't be a problem if I were a dude. I now hear my children say to me what I used to say to my mom "MOM, I've got to pluck those black hair out of your chin!"
10. You have to re-read numbers 1 - 9 because you really didn't understand them the first time you read it. The old gray mare and stallion just ain't what they used to be.
Here's a bonus one:
11. Black Friday makes you think of Jesus instead of shopping because you're closer to meeting him.

5 Promises You Can Count On
Think about the last time someone promised you something.
Did they keep their promise? Did they break their promise? How did their
promise make you feel? Are you tired of promises not being kept by your family,
friends, boss, co-worker or even yourself? Does this egg depict your image of
promises? Broken!
You can count on the promises of God...every time! I've listed five of my favorites of the MANY promises of His Word. It may help to memorize these for reassurance when others neglect to carry out their promises.
You can count on the promises of God...every time! I've listed five of my favorites of the MANY promises of His Word. It may help to memorize these for reassurance when others neglect to carry out their promises.
- God
will never leave you nor forsake you. Hebrews 13:5
- God
will give you rest from a heavy heart. Matthew 11:28
- God
will save you and your household. Acts 16:31
- God
will make your enemies your footstool. Matthew 22:42
- God
will give you what you pray for, if you believe. Matthew 21:22
A promise is a serious vow of your character. Broken
promises make you untrustworthy. If you think about it, just being asked to
"promise" may be a sign you've let someone down already. Be careful
making promises to people. A fulfilled promise may not always be remembered but
a broken promise will never be forgotten!
Keeping my promises,
Tammy

Leave me a comment and let me know what your favorite promise of all time is!

One times Zero Equals Zero
Our Sunday School teacher asked us to find and read John
3:16 in class this week. I know most of us could recite it by heart. I could. I
marveled at just how many people in the world could recite that verse. I was
disheartened when I had no clue about the next verse the teacher wanted read.
My mind wandered from one place to another. I found myself in third grade
standing up while reciting...
2 x 1 = 2
2 x 2 = 4
2 x 3 = 6
2 x 2 = 4
2 x 3 = 6
...and so on. I required my daughters to stand
up and recite their multiplication tables at home. The best way to
learn them is through memorization. I know this is not a requirement in
classrooms currently. I think it should be though. Why? Because it helps kids
and adults throughout their lives with everyday tasks. I also memorized a poem
that starts 30 days hath September. I still use this poem to remind myself how
many days are in each month. I can also recite all 50 states by singing Fifty
Nifty United States! Memorization is useful.
I imagined my teacher being God and instead of the multiplication tables, he asked me to recite as much of his Word as I could including where they are found in his Book. Wow! I think I said five correctly...maybe. I tried not to open my mouth or think something like "Can you give me something easy please?" Psalm 119:11 says "Thy word have I hidden in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee." I know a lot of God's Word but not precisely, can't recite it or tell you where it's at in the book. Would it help me throughout my lifetime if I memorized it? Absolutely! My third grade teacher wasn't satisfied with "close" or "I just missed one or two". We had to say our multiplication tables without fail, all 12 of them.
I doubt God is satisfied with my lack of importance I devote to hiding his Word in my heart. Is he pleased with yours? If we start today and learn one verse per month or week, 1 x 1 = 1, 1 x 2 = 2, 1 x 3 =3. If we don't start today, one times zero equals zero.
