Do you need a new garment today? I’m not talking about a physical garment. I’m talking about what’s covering your mind and emotions. Are you clothed with despair and disappointment? Are you wearing “heaviness”? If you’ve gone through a hurtful situation, the Bible says there is a time to grieve, and it’s important to release that hurt to the Lord. But the Bible also tells us that God wants to give you a garment of praise instead of a spirit of despair. You can put on a garment of praise instead of a heavy, burdened spirit. What’s holding you back today? Are the garments of yesterday weighing you down and holding you back? The garment of praise is light and filled with peace and joy. Don’t carry those heavy burdens around anymore! Today is the day for new garments! Forgive those who have hurt you and begin to praise Him! Thank God for life today. Thank Him for the beautiful sunrise. Thank him for restoring you, even if you don’t see it yet. And this verse says, you will be called an oak of righteousness, strong and secure, and you will display the splendor of the Lord all the days of your life!
To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they maybe caled trees of righteousness, the planting of the Lord, that He might be glorified. (Isaiah 61:3 KJV)

Problem Solved
Posted by Lisa at Saturday, October 13, 2007I did manage to put again my widgets and links but it took me a while. I had to do it manually, one by one and had to go throught the websites where I got my widgets. I really can't figure out how to put back the widgets that I saved before trying to edit my template's HTML. I was worried I can't put back my blog links. What would my co-bloggers say? They might thought I deleted their links. Well, I won't touch again this HTML or else I would encounter the same problem. Waaaahhh, it really sucks....
Need Help...
Posted by Lisa at Saturday, October 13, 2007I'm sorry guys if you can't see your links here now. I was trying to customized my template and then when I pasted back the widgets like the blog links, leave me a message, etc. it says error. I've been here until past midnight but still can't figure out how to put back my widgets. I saved my old template and all the codes but my problem is when I pasted it back, it won't appear. Pasensiya na, di marunong ang lola nyo. I'm a newbie here in blogspot. If anybody knows how to customized profiles and put back my widgets, I will appreciate very much your help. Till then and I'm already sleepy.

Banana Royale
Posted by Lisa at Friday, October 05, 2007
Yesterday I baked banana nut bread. Hubby bought some bananas a few days ago and they are already very ripe now. He's been eating some of it but he doesn't want to eat them now that they are very ripe. He said it's too soft for him. So it's best to make a banana nut bread. I often make banana nut muffins and bread but this time I opted to just make banana nut bread. Both hubby and I love eating it for our snacks. It's really good...yummy. I want to share the recipe. Try it, it's worth the effort.
Banana Royale
Preheat oven 350 degrees.

1 cup brown sugar
½ cup butter
2 eggs
1 tsp baking soda
1 ½ cup flour (all-purpose)

1 tsp baking powder
2 mashed bananas
1 tsp vanilla
1. Mix butter (melted), sugar, eggs, nuts.
2. Dissolve baking soda in sour cream.
3. Add baking powder, mashed bananas, vanilla.
4. Stir in flour.
