THEME:

This week it’s seriously going to be just fun. This week share your favourite candies. I know from being on the HSBA Post team that Sprittibee and Dawn love gummy-bears, and maybe Bunny too. Have fun with this… and you’re welcome to post a photo of YOU eating your favourite candy. Haha!

God’s Word is also like sweetness to our souls. His sweet love, forgiveness, comfort, peace, and more is what makes our lives seem a little more bearable when things get rough. Whenever you eat your sweet piece of goodness remember that God loves you and will always be there when life seems sour.

Share a scripture for this week as well. One that lifts you up when you’re feeling discouraged.

Candy, hmmm?  Well, I'm  more of a chocolate kind of person.  (Does chocolate count as candy?  Somehow in my mind it doesn't.)  As far as chocolate goes, however, I love dark chocolate and use the seriously strong stuff as medicine for my soul.  (I'm talking like 75%-85% cacao.  Serious stuff!) 

Otherwise, Dove is a very good American brand.  I like Peppermint Patties and Junior Mints, too, as well as Whoppers.  My favorite candy bar is Heath, though I like Milky Way and 3 Musketeers, as well.

Now, for candy proper, I like sour things, so I enjoy Skittles and Sour Skittles.   Oooh, probably one of my favorites, though, would have to be Peach Rings. 

But Sweet-Tarts and Sprees are also yummy.  If I want something truly sweet, I like Werther's Original Candies (sort of a toffee-buttery flavor).

Okay, great.  Now I'm hungry.

A Scripture that encourages me when I'm down is:

Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up (Galatian 6:9, NIV).
