For I am not ashamed of this Good News about Christ. It is the power of God at work, saving everyone who believes - the Jew first also the Gentile. This Good News tells us how God makes us right in his sight. This is accomplished from start to finish by faith. As the Scriptures say, "It is through faith that a righteous person has life." Romans 1:16-17 NLT

If I weren't 8 hours away I'd come whip up those dresses for you so you didn't have to stress about them.
Forget the sewing and have fun!

Hmmm... I see something that belongs to me. :) Well, technically it doesn't since I haven't paid for it but...maybe I can come over and get it before you leave?

Sorry about the stress of the dress! :( Have fun at the beach. You are an inspiration to me (if only I could be more like you :) ) Thanks for a reminder of the GOOD NEWS today!
I hope you are all relaxed from vacation. Don't let your neck and back start tensing up at the thought of sewing again, just do it as you can!
By the way I need to know your SKIRT SIZE!!!!
Jill
