Refreshing Vinegar Drink

Image
 Greetings to my Titus 2 Sisters! This is just a quick post to share an inexpensive, tasty and nourishing vinegar drink with you. I know, a lot of people can't think of vinegar as being something they want to drink but once you get used to it, it's awesome.  They sell these drinks in the stores for $2.50-$3 each and we can make them for pennies. Its super easy: There are a lot of benefits to apple cider vinegar, you can look it up and see for yourself and decide. We are blessed to be able to do good things for the people in our lives and maybe this will be something you are thankful for.  If not then that's okay too :-) Love to you all, Sister Deb And whosoever shall give to drink unto one of these little ones a cup of cold water only in the name of a disciple, verily I say unto you, he shall in no wise lose his reward. Matthew 10:42 

Plant Based Milks (Oat and Nut)

Image
Greetings to my Titus 2 Sister saints! I thought I'd just share my experience with making some plant based milks and not that I'm against regular milk, I was just looking to see what other options there are. I'll share a couple simple ideas for those of you who might be interested, for whatever reason you might have, and maybe it'll be a Titus 2 blessing for you. I'm not fond of all the fillers they put in their plant based milks in the store nor do I want to pay the price for the natural ones (sometimes I'll buy one if it's on a great discount) and these here are very inexpensive and super easy to do. We'll start with the oat milk.  All you need to do is blend oats with water (for a minute or two) and then strain.   (You can use any kind of blender you have.) You can then use the oat left overs for your breakfast or cooking or whatever you want. Once you strain out the oats (I used just a regular strainer but some people use cloth which seems more work ...

Mini Micro Cake Recipe

Image
 Greetings to my Titus 2 sister saints!   I just wanted to share this simple recipe for mini micro cakes. (On the internet they call them mug cakes).  They are super simple and awesome because you can quickly bless unexpected guests with a treat in less than a few minutes and they are great for van life! Have a joyous day in the Lord. Sister Deb

Single Serving Chocolate Chia Pudding

Image
Greetings sister saints! Here's a simple chia pudding recipe for one serving that I use both on the homestead and in the van life. I'll show you how simple it is then summarize at the end for you. See how simple that is?  Let's look at the recipe:-) Ingredients: 1 Tablespoon Chia seeds 1 Teaspoon cocoa 1 Stevia packet  4 Tablespoons of milk Mix Wait a couple minutes and mix again to make sure there are no lumps (I mix it here and there while I'm doing other things) Put in the refrigerator and I usually let it sit for most of a day if not overnight. It's great with a dab of yogurt on it too. So there you go a simple Titus 2 recipe for those who are not wanting a big batch (which doesn't always work in tiny house or off grid or van life lol.) I'm thankful for healthy foods from the Father. Love in Christ, Sister Deb   And having food and raiment let us be therewith content. 1 Timothy 6:8

Super Simple Thermos Soup

Image
Good day sister saints! Here's a quick post of a link to a video of a simple thermos soup we like and it's great for van life. Click HERE to see it. (Brother Jim links to these type posts in his van dweller page so I like to keep them separate in addition to regular posts.)  Glory to God for simple Titus 2 jobs and nourishment for our body so we can keep doing the Lord's work. Love to you all. Sister Deb

Simple Iced Coffee

Image
 Greetings sister saints! This is just a quick post on how I make inexpensive iced coffees that are minimal and simple for van life.   Brother Jim likes to link these type recipes to his van dwelling tip page (you can find that HERE ) so I'll keep it short. Obviously you could add different ingredients and vary the measurements but this is a baseline recipe. Praise God for simple healthy treats like this and we don't waste much time on them so that we can focus on what's important....sharing the GOSPEL with the lost. Love to you all, Sister Deb

Good Within the Bad

Image
Good evening sisters!   Let us give thanks unto the Lord for this day and use it for Him! I made an audio for you called 'good within the bad', you can find that HERE  if you are interested:-)  I just felt led to share about the good that is not always seen within the bad, while we're out on the streets. Let it glorify God that His Word is doing what it should! (That picture above is from when I got to witness to that sweet older lady who had the illnesses, I wrote about it on the sisters blog several days ago.) And here's a video from brother Jim and I about our hearts when it comes to going out on the streets. Let's rejoice and give God glory for His amazing creation! Psalm 30:12  To the end that my glory may sing praise to thee, and not be silent. O Lord my God, I will give thanks unto thee for ever. A big snail floating by... And a cute bird taking a bath... Behold therefore the goodness and severity of God: on them which fell, severity; but toward thee, goo...

A Day in the Life (June 20,2021)

 Good evening sister saints! Sorry for my lack of creativity in the titles but it's not the title that counts, it's the love and truth behind it:-) 🌹🌸💐🌿🌾🌼🥀 We had a rainy day today... And took you on a little drive by the water.  Watch for the crane... Praise God for each day we have to serve Him. How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without spot to God, purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?  Hebrews 9:14  (Thank you sister:-) I made an audio for you about giving out gospel cards, you can listen to that HERE if you are interested.   I was sharing Proverbs 20 with a sister and she added it to this picture:-) Brother Jim did a teaching called "The Wedding Guest Not Dressed" you can listen to that  HERE  if you want. I made you a video that I hope encourages you:-) And I took you along on a Titus 2 errand:-) And a van dwelling tip about tortillas. God's amazing creati...

A Day In The Life (June 19, 2021)

Image
 Good evening sisters! I hope your day is joyous in the Lord!  I shared this with a sister today and wanted to share it here to encourage us all.  Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.  Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.  Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness;  And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace;  Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.  And take the helmet of salvation, and the swor...

Taking a Walk Around a Lake

Image
 🌼 Good day sister saints! 🌼  This post is being written several days before this because, Lord willing, we will be preaching the GOSPEL on this day in a busy tourist town and then potential travel in the afternoon so I wanted to make sure I loaded up some love and encouragement for you sisters. We were at a park and it was so pretty I thought I'd make some videos for you, first reading from Psalms. 🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻 Then I walked to the other side of the lake on the walking path and on the way back, took you with. 🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿 🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊 🌾🌾🌾🌾🌾🌾🌾🌾🌾 🥀🌺🏵️💐🌹🌸🌷🌼🌻 A simple quiet walk with the Lord, sharing it with you all.  It's such a busy and crazy world that it's a blessing to have such a time and I wanted you to partake of it, although it's not the same on video but the thought is behind it:-) Praise God for the love of the brethren.  Let us all continue to encourage one another on this walk... But exhort one another daily, while it is ...

Van Life Thermal Cooking Rice with Veggies

Image
 ⛅ Good afternoon sisters! 🌥️ Hey, today I have another cooking video showing how easy it is to thermal cook 🍚 rice as brother Jim has been asking me to do these to help brothers also. This is great in the van 🚐 life (or RV, tiny house or even a big regular house 🏡:-) because it's super simple and saves 💵 $$ energy $$ 💵.  One thing I didn't mention is that I have even thermal cooked the rice in the pot 🍲 I boiled  it...you just bring it to a boil for a couple minutes, turn it off and wrap it in a blanket or towels  for 30 minutes 🕧 so anyone can do this without any special kitchen gadgets. You can check out the video and I'll add more comments 💬 afterwards. I suggest you make more rice 🍚 than you need and have left overs for the next day(s).  If you live out of a cooler like we do, you want to cool ❄️the rice down first so you don't melt your ice:-)   Rice is super economical, for instance:  I used 1 1/4 cup rice in the video and it made...
