A new week and lots of new ideas and feels like the kids are keeping me busy with lists and things to be done for the whole week:-)<br />
<br />
Just listed two new sets of beads on ebay: <a href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/260950758283?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1555.l2649#ht_616wt_1185">http://www.ebay.com/itm/260950758283?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1555.l2649#ht_616wt_1185</a><br />
<br />
...and please have a look at my website... lots of my favorites up for grabs directly from the website:<br />

<br />
No, it's not yours to open buds into blossom....<br />
He who can open the bud does it so simply....<br />
Ar His breath the flower spreads it wings and flutters in the wind.<br />
Colors flash out like heart longing,<br />
the perfume betrays a sweet secret.<br />
He who can open the bud does it so simply.<br />

<br /><div>Today's Etsy find comes from Ashville North Carolina. Heather Knight of <a href="http://www.etsy.com/people/elementclaystudio?ref=ls_profile">elemententclaystudio</a> creates the most beautiful vessels and micro tiles. The simplicity of her work awed me!</div>

Welkom by ons bladsy! Amogela! Isibingelelo! As you well know, our beautiful country is plagued by violent crime.

On the 2nd May 2010 we are planning to hold a National Day of Prayer for a Crime Free South Africa! This is how it is going to work: On Facebook: 1. From Sunday the 25th April people can start posting profile pics of themselves wearing a red armband. a) Why a red armband? An armband is a symbol of unity for the event. b) Why red? Red symbolizes three things: i) We remember all those whose blood was spilt as victims of crime ii) Red is the colour of crisis. iii) Red symbolizes the blood of Christ that can heal our land 2. On Sunday the 2nd of May, everybody participating can post prayers on their Facebook status updates. We are trusting on filling Facebook with thousands of prayers for South Africa. (This has never been done before in the history of the internet!) Some ideas to use in your local context: 1. Even though invites will be sent to individuals, home groups and churches are welcome to participate. 2. People can go and pray for their neighbours or people in their street or complex. 3. People who have been victims of violent crime can be prayed for. 4. People who live with debilitating fear can be prayed for. 5. Security companies and personal i.e. guards at the complex gates who often get shot first, can be prayed for. 6. Those Christians who wish to fast are free to do so. Either one, two or three meals or abstain from certain foods for the day. 7. In the week preceding the National Prayer Day, people can visit police stations with letters or cards of blessing and prayer. Flowers are always appreciated too. It’s important that people don’t congregate at police stations on the actual day. Too many people converging on a police station at once could be dangerous. (This is optional. If you do not like the police then obviously this idea will not be for you!) 8. Please share any other ideas that you may have to combat crime on this site. N.B. Under no circumstances do we advise or encourage anyone to confront criminals or to take the law into their own hands! What we don't want on this page: If you want to rant and rave about how bad South Africa is, this is not the place. No politics! If you want to promote your business, products, group or ministry, this is also not the place. No personal attacks, slander or vulgarity will be tolerated.</span></span></span></span></div><div class="UIStoryAttachment_Table" style="padding-top: 2px; "><div><span class="UIStoryAttachment_Label" style="color: rgb(153, 153, 153);
