Scripture Sunday

 

Sweet friend,

If you don't know Jesus yet......

I would strongly encourage you to seek Him now

why He can still be found.  I came to know Jesus when

I was 14 yrs. old and I can honestly say there has not

been one day I have ever regretted that decision.

We should all be concerned about our eternal

destination......cause it is gonna come one day

and none of us know when it will happen, so

we need to be prepared.  If you should have

questions about it, please feel free to email

me at Nelliescozyplace@gmail.com.

Love and Blessings,

Nellie

Thankful Thursday June 19th. 2025 and This years Patriotic Father's Day Table

Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.     Philippians 4:6-7 NIV

Thursday Greetings Sweet Friends,

Hope you are having a good week,

 and that all your Dads had a great

Father's Day. Our's seemed to....

Looking forward to our Daughter

and family coming in later this week.

Pictures today are from our Father's Day

 table 2025 I usually try to do a theme that

 fits both of them, and was trying to figure

 out a theme I had not done yet, and since I

 saw it was flag day, I thought, great I will do

 a patriotic theme since both our Dads are

 Patriotic and already had everything I

 needed to do it as well.

  Perfect!

So on with my Thankfuls............

#1

Thankful that my friend who's Daughter and

 family are moving to California, made it

 there safe and sound. This was not your

 typical get to the airport and jump on a

 plane and go....NO.... My friend and her

 Daughter traveled with a 4 and a half yr.

 old, an almost 2 yr. old and an almost 2

 month old baby. It took 2 cars just to get

 to the airport with all 3 children having

 to be in car seats and with luggage and a

 pack andplay, which all had to go on the

 plane as well, and it was a 5 hr. flight.  Her

 Son-in-love drove 3 days by himself......12 hrs.

 a day, and arrived there on Wednesday, so

 he could have their base housing secured in

 time for their arrival. Many of us have

 prayed for this trip, as there was a lot to

 be concerned about to say the least, but

 the Lord has answered prayer after

 prayer. He truly showed himself to be

 with them every step of the way on

this air flight.

Note:  Please pray their furniture and

 personal things will get there before they

 told them which is not until June 23rd, so

 they have been living in their house without

 anything but clothing pretty much. So it has

 been a longgg week I am sure!!

#2

Thankful to have been a part of their

 journey and to know the Lord answered

 so many prayers on their behalf,  just

 makes me weep with gratitude knowing

 what a loving God we serve, and how 

much He loves us.

#3

Thankful that gifts are wrapped and dinner

planned and shopping done for Father's Day

dinner.  Working on the table today, and will

make Beef Stroganoff tomorrow for 

Sunday, as it is best the day after.

#4

Thankful for a lovely visit with our new

neighbor Sat. morning.  We had invited them

over last week, and her hubby was sick,

so they couldn't come, so she text and ask

 if she could bring us some banana bread

This morning, and we had a lovely visit.

she is our Daughters age, and such a 

sweet young lady.

#5 and 6

Thankful for being able to attend lil darlings

dance recital tonight. It was quite good, and

she did a really great job and we can see

 how she has really grown in confidence.

Then we went out to dinner with she and

our Son.  A very pleasant evening, I have 

to say.  Also we have been wanting to

try our Sonny's Barbecue place for 

awhile now, cause we had gotten where

we didn't like it for a long time,  but they

have redone it, so our Son suggested going

 there, so very Thankful we really enjoyed it.

#7

Thankful for a nice restful and peaceful

Father's day.  We watched our Sunday

Service from home for a number of 

reasons, and then our Son and lil darling

came in the afternoon to celebrate.

So we had a nice dinner, visit, and UNO

card games. Both Dads were happy

with their dinner, cards and gifts

and the fun time! 

So Mission accomplished!!!  lol

#8

Thankful to sleep in this Monday morning 

as Iwas exhausted as it had been a busy

end of the week.  

#9

Thankful and excited that we will get

to see our Daughter and Son-in-love

for a few days again this week which

is very unusual.....

#10

Thankful for Cuban food, which we had 

for dinnera number of nights.  Black beans

 yellow rice, and a meat dish called Picadillo.

 Learned to make this in our first year of

 marriage, taught by a Cuban friend and

 work mate.

Click here to see recipe for Picadillo

Click here to see recipe for Black Beans

and rice.  Also another Cuban dish

called Ropa Veija, all on same post.

#11

Thankful that our Daughter, Son-in-love and 

furry grandson dog got in safe and sound

from S Carolina.

#12

Thankful we had a good time with them

as always.  We all tried to go out to dinner

last night, but unfortunately, we went to

Target to meet our Son, and I had been

 having a headache but was better, but all

 of a sudden I started to get whoozy

 headed and weak and my equilibrium was

 off and could not walk very straight, so

 had thinking it might be blood sugar, they

got me a snicker bar to eat, but it didn't

 help, so we all had to come home and we

 ordered take out.

 I am sure they were all disappointed, 

as I was, but they all had a great attitude,

 and took good care of me.  So thankful

 for my sweet family and that Dee and

 family got to visit again so soon, and

 thankful that I am feeling better today.

  So don't know if it was just a sinus issue

electrolytes or what it was, but happy

 to be feeling better today. Kids are on 

their way to see her hubbies parents for

his Mom's birthday and to visit with the

whole family.  

~~               ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Well, That's it for this week at Cozy Place.

This is the Father's Day edition.  lol

Thanks for stoppin by.....

Have a fantastic weekend

is progress,  PTL

Thankful for mornings that I wake

up a daybreak, and look out the

with the world.  Such sweet and

peaceful moments.  This morning

was one of those mornings!!

Well, folks,  that is it for Cozy 

Place today. This is the Daughter's

visit edition!!  It was short but sweet

and packed with joy and blessings

of being together, always a great

time for all of us, and we long for

 the day we can live in the same place,

 which might not be till we get to heaven, 

but in the meantime we are thankful

 for cell phones, email, facebook 

messenger, facetime and short or

 longer visits that help us stay 

connected.

Thanks for making us a part of 

your day, and have a wonderful

rest of the week.

Love, Hugs and

Mid-June Blessings,

Nellie

Thankful Thursday June 5, 2025, and another Father's Day table from the past.

 

Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in the heavenly realms with every spiritual blessing in Christ.              Ephesians 1:3 NIV

Greetings Sweet Friends,

How's You today???

Thinking you might be looking for ideas 

for Father's Day... just like I am.

Have had more time for that this

week since I have not being feeling

great all week - some virus I presume.

On Monday I felt great and thought

I was over it, only to get

up on Tuesday feeling bad again.

Pictures today are of another

Father's day table from the past.

This hung over the table

So on with my Thankfuls.

#1

Thankful we got to go to dinner with our Son and lil darling again, as we won't get 

to see them again for a week. Had a nice

 time considering I wasn't feeling the

greatest, but good to see them, as he is 

taking her to meet with his sister, and

 hubby and then on Sunday she will go back

 home with them for a visit.  She is really

 excited cause she loves her Aunt Dina and

 uncle Jerry.

#2

Thankful that they could work it out so she 

could go again this year.  They did it last

year and they all really have a great time

 together.  Such a blessing.

#3

Thankful that one of our long time friends

 daughter graduated on Sat. and all went

 well, and so did her party afterwards.

  She is such a sweet girl and we have known

 her since she was 3 yrs. old.  Thankful

that Hubby got to go to her party for

awhile cause I wasn't feeling well, and

 didn't want to make anyone sick

#4

Thankful that our neighbors mother, who

 lives with him, is doing okay.  She was evaced

 earlier this week thinking she had a stroke. 

 They think it was a Tia, but she is doing fine

 now.  Praise the Lord

#5

Thankful for A/C filters and Air purifiers that clean the air in the house. 

#6

Thankful that I have  made Father's day cards for hubby and our Son,

and been working on other aspects

for Father's day as well. 

#7

Thankful for yogurt bowls for

breakfast.  They are Healthy, delicious

 and filling.  We use vanilla yogurt, and 

put sliced strawberries and blueberries

and a cranberry and nut mix, and

granola on top.  If you want you can

 drizzle with a lil honey.  YUM!!

#8

Thankful my sweet and smart hubby

was trying to buy me some Pedialyte

and decided to check the ingredients

label, and found out all of it,  the

childrens and adult one, all have

sucralose in them. Sucralose does

not agree with me, so we got gator

aide instead, it has normal sugar.

                                #9

Thankful for listerine which does

help some with the sore throat

and dry mouth.

#10

Thankful our our church prayer team.

After feeling bad all week, I decided 

to put our family on the prayer list

at church today, as my Daughter an 

lil darling had the same symptoms as

 I have had, over the weekend, so think

 lil darling must have gotten it from

 me in that short time we were together

last Thursday night before she left

to go to her Aunties. Anyway, it's only

be a few hours since I did that, and I am

 feeling a lil better already.  They will

be coming in tomorrow.  So hopefully 

we will all be feeling good by them.

#11

Thankful our Daughter and lil darling

are on their way and should get here

 about 2 PM. today. if all goes well. 

 So excited to see them.

Haven't seen Dee since the middle of

March. and haven't seen much of lil

 darling since she got out of school

 in early May.  She is growing up,

she is 12 yrs. old now.

#12

Thankful we are all feeling good

this morning, and thankful for 

all those that are praying for us.

````````````````````````````````````````````````

Well, that's all for Cozy Place

this week.
