A contest!!

Some of you have heard me talk about the wonderful folks at BeeYoutiful.  They have a wonderful catalog packed full of helpful home remedies.  Go on and click over there and get them to send you one!



This week I'm having a contest to give away one of their wonderful Tea Tree Oils!


This taken directly from their website:
Tea Tree Oil. This all-purpose essential oil can replace most of your medicines—and most of your household cleaning supplies. Beeyoutiful’s is 100% pure, pharmaceutical grade tea tree oil. It provides generous amounts of terpinen, the active ingredient responsible for the oil’s astounding anti-viral, anti-bacterial, and anti-fungal abilities not usually found in lesser brands.
Use tea tree oil instead of first aid spray and anti-bacterial ointments for cuts, scrapes, infections, irritated hair follicles, blisters, boils, and even acne. It’s safe for use on broken skin and can be applied without diluting. A drop or two is all it takes. You can also combine tea tree oil with Vitamin E oil or aloe vera gel to soothe minor burns and sunburn. And regular application will dissolve both plantar and seed warts safely. (Please don’t use toxic, over-the-counter wart removal medications!)
Skin conditions like eczema, seborrhea, and psoriasis are soothed when tea tree oil is mixed with aloe gel or added to a warm, sea salt bath. Minimize infection, reduce scarring, and speed healing from chicken pox and shingles by adding tea tree oil and a cup of dry oatmeal to a warm bath.
Tea tree oil massaged into the scalp relieves both dry and oily hair problems, plus dandruff. You’ll have no more worries about toxic head lice potions since tea tree oil eradicates lice, too!
Skip the expensive ******l yeast infection medicine you usually don’t realize you need until late at night. Just soak a tampon in olive oil or another safe lubricant, add a few drops of tea tree oil, and insert. Repeat for a few days. Sitz baths tinged with tea tree oil can also relieve the related itching and pain. Other fungal infections like jock itch, athlete’s foot, ringworm, and nail fungus respond to regular tea tree oil application as well.
Because tea tree oil acts as an expectorant and is beneficial to the respiratory tract, use it instead of cough syrups and cold medicines. Mix with olive oil and spread on your patient’s chest and throat. Make a steam inhalation treatment by adding a few drops of tea tree oil to a bowl of boiling water, or diffuse the oil in a vaporizer or aroma lamp to open ailing air passages and disinfect the sickroom. Soothe an earache and clear up the infection by mixing a drop of TTO with a bit of warm olive oil. Insert this mixture into the ear and plug with a bit of cotton. Add a hot water bottle or heating pad, and relief will be quick.
Cold sores, mouth ulcers, and toothaches can all be helped by regular application of tea tree oil. Just don’t swallow the saliva right after application. Disinfect your toothbrush every week with a drop or two, then rinse well. If your family keeps passing around strep throat or a cold, this is very important!
Nature lovers love tea tree oil because it makes a great flea, tick, and mosquito repellant and will disinfect and reduce swelling if you’re bitten or stung. Mixed with baking soda, it makes an inexpensive home remedy for poison ivy, poison oak, and sumac itching.

And this is my FAVORITE CLEANING Product Recipe
Replace your toxic household cleaners with a spray bottle of 12 oz. warm water, 2 tablespoons of vinegar, and 1 teaspoon of borax, plus a few drops of tea tree oil for a safe, refreshing disinfectant cleaner. Add a drop to your dishwasher’s soap dispenser and to your garbage disposal to freshen them up. Add to your laundry to disinfect while you clean.

What do you have to do to enter the contest???
Just leave a comment here and tell me your FAVORITE bible verse and why it means so much to you.
The winner will be chose at random next Wednesday October 28th!
Good Luck everyone!!!

Zephaniah 3:17-18 because when it talks of the Lord taking great delight in us, it literally translates, "He spins with delight." It reminds me of a young child when they get so excited that they spin in circles. How awesome to know that my Father does the same thing when He thinks of me.

I also have two "life" verses. One is for my marriage:
"She does him good, and not harm, all the days of her life."

The other one is, "Whose applause do you desire - the praise of man, or the praise of God?" (That is my own paraphrase.)

Trust in the Lord with all of your heart and lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways, acknowledge Him, and He will make your paths straight. Prov 3: 5-6

Proverbs 3:5-6 is my favorite verse because I tend to be a person who likes to understand "why" and "how". It reminds me not to lean on my own understanding, but to trust that He has a perfect purpose and plan for it all. He knows "why" and "how" and will guide me. :O)

for the opportunity to enter the drawing. :-)

Many verses have been my "favorite" depending on what is going on in my life and the world around me. Right now my favorite is 1 Peter 5:8, which appeals to me both in my passion for family emergency preparedness and also speaks to me as a military wife, as we must always be vigilant and attentive to our surroundings in order to protect our families, bases, units, and country/countrymen.

What a great contest! Eph 19:20 "And now to him is who able to do immeasurably more than we could ever ask or imagine according to his glorious riches in Christ Jesus..."

That one was given to me on the day I went into work with fear and trepidation mixed with shaky confidence that I was to resign from full-time work in order to stay home with my kids full-time. This verse continues to bolster my fledgling faith in times of lean finances and fear about the future because God really has done more in my life, my marriage, my family than I could have EVER asked or imagined.

Awesome! Just found you and am going to follow!
Jeremiah 33:3 "Call to me and I will answer you and show you great and mighty things that you do not know." How awesome is that? To be able to call on the Creator and KNOW that HE will answer you. Amazing. Thanks for the chance to win!

With 3 very active, sinful children it is "And let us not grow weary of doing good, for in due season we will reap, if we do not give up." Gal. 6:9. It reminds me to keep on training and disciplining even when I am tired.

Oct. 28, 2009 - Bible Verse from Amy Wilder

Okay - it is SO hard to choose just one, but there is a verse that is speaking to my heart so much lately.

Never worry about anything; but tell God all your desires of every kind in prayer and petition shot through with gratitude and the peace of God which is beyond our understanding will guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:7

With being a working mom and trying to be everything to my husband and son, it does cause worry and stress. This verse has brought me so much peace in the last few weeks. I know the Lord has a plan and all I have to do is pray to Him and give Him all my desires and He will take care of me. I also depend so much on "Be Still and Know that I am God".......I remind myself of this on a daily basis!

Love to all the Worthys!

"For the LORD Himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of an archangel and the trumpet of GOD; the dead in CHRIST shall rise first, then those who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with Him in the air, thus we shall always be with the LORD.
