Grow Closer to God by Reading Robert McArthur’s One-Year Daily Devotional, Prayers After God’s Own Heart


News Image

“I made the decision to publish this devotional as an encouragement to others to join me on their own personal journey into intimate relationship with God…There are great benefits to praying prayers that are drawn from the Word of God, because His Word is His will for your life.”

Prayers After God’s Own Heart is a compilation of daily devotionals written by Robert McArthur after committing himself to writing prayers based on God’s Word. The author asks readers to read every biblical passage and personal reflection out loud, this process said to be more effective in helping people focus on each message and allot a few moments of silence to listen to Him. When people develop these good habits, they can build and maintain a more intimate relationship with the Almighty.

In his reflections, the author seeks protection from the evil influences of the enemy so that nothing can get in between him and God’s truth. He acknowledges that the flesh is weak even if the spirit is strong and willing, and he prays for strength against overwhelming odds that may otherwise leave room for doubting His love. This way, everyone has the opportunity to rise above their sins and change for the better, which is what the Lord intends for all His children.

“I made the decision to publish this devotional as an encouragement to others to join me on their own personal journey into intimate relationship with God.” Robert McArthur also explains that, even though each person has a unique experience in relating with the Lord, it does not at all diminish his or her potential to love Him more deeply. “I trust that you will discover that there are great benefits to praying prayers that are drawn from the Word of God, because His Word is His will for your life, just as much as it is for mine.”

Robert McArthur’s daily devotional does not require a person to be well-versed in the Scripture to be able to understand its words. Instead, it welcomes even the undevout members of society and encourages them to take it one step at a time to learn more about God’s Word. He urges people to open their hearts and minds so they can hear the Lord speaking to them. The author also says to look beyond the humdrum of everyday problems, appreciate the beauty of the world He created, and do everything to protect and preserve it as God has tasked mankind to do.

According to the devotional, when a person’s heart is full of love for God and absolutely surrender to His Will, there will be no room for envy, hate, or any form of evil to take root. This way, everyone can follow the example of Christ and be more like Him, which proves the ultimate triumph of good over evil on the day of Christ’s return.

“Remind me that good will always win over evil in the end, and help me to rest in the wonderful hope that if I remain surrendered to Your will, You will set all things right—every hurt, every offense, every injustice—according to the perfect timing of the working of Your plan, in order that You will receive the most glory.”

“Named after a nationally recognized pioneer in home economics, Nellie Kedzie Jones, who was a champion for rural women homemakers, Aunt Nellie’s has been a pantry staple for generations and will be celebrating its 90th birthday this fall with a national promotion.”

Historically, 1929 was a big year! It was the end of the Roaring Twenties, the start of the Great Depression and the year that launched of one of America’s iconic brands – Aunt Nellie’s. Named after a nationally recognized pioneer in home economics, Nellie Kedzie Jones, who was a champion for rural women homemakers, Aunt Nellie’s has been a pantry staple for generations and will be celebrating its 90th birthday this fall with a national promotion.

To honor its humble roots and the historic era from which it started, Aunt Nellie’s will be celebrating the origins of potluck meals with its 90th Birthday Potluck Part y. Created out of need during the Great Depression, potlucks grew in popularity as a beloved way to entertain and gather family and friends and are still going strong 90 years later. From October 21 through November 22, Aunt Nellie’s will be celebrating several popular potluck themes, from tailgating to Thanksgiving, with new recipes each week. Additionally America’s potluck queen, Ali Rosen, host of the Potluck with Ali TV show and author of the bestselling cookbook, Bring It, will be sharing valuable preparation and transportation tips to help ensure each gathering’s success. Other leading food bloggers contributing to the festivities include An Edible Mosaic, Eclectic Recipes, The Chef Next Door, and bell’alimento.

“Like everything old that is new again, potlucks are resurging in an era where people want to go back to a time where hosting could be fun, casual, and full of great food without everything landing on the host. Any gathering of friends and family can be a potluck – if someone brings the salad or the dessert it suddenly becomes a more communal experience that brings people further together,” said Rosen. “I’m excited to partner with Nellie’s on this 90th milestone birthday and to celebrate classic entertaining with a classic brand.”

Aunt Nellie’s also is upping the “Aunty” by inviting everyone to host their own potluck party for a chance to win a $500 donation to their local food bank as well as $250 VISA gift card and an Aunt Nellie’s family pack for themselves. Hosts can enter two ways:

Aunt Nellie’s Farm Kitchen® was created in 1929 in Clyman, Wisconsin, by local farmer/businessman Norbert Lau. After starting out processing sweet peas, the company added more canned and glass-packed fruits and vegetables over the years. In 1965, under the leadership of David Lau (Norbert Lau’s son), the company expanded its fruit and vegetable product line.

Realtor Rich Steffen Educates Homeowners on Selling a House in a Divorce


News Image

As much as one or the other may want to keep the home, frequently the situation demands otherwise. This can be due to legal, financial, emotional or liability reasons, but in the end, the home must be sold.

For many couples, their home is the greatest asset they possess, one that also has a lot of sentimental value. “Rarely is selling the family home the first choice of divorcing couples,” said Steffen, agent and team owner of the CORE 1 Real Estate Team. “As much as one or the other may want to keep the home, frequently the situation demands otherwise. This can be due to legal, financial, emotional or liability reasons, but in the end, the home must be sold.”

No. 1: Legal reasons. The division of property, and specifically the division of the family home, may not be a cut and dry transaction. “Each of you contributed to the purchase of the home – even if one did so more than the other, each wants their fair share,” noted Steffen. “If you cannot come to an agreement out of court, the court will decide for you, which often includes the sale of the home.”

No. 2: Financial reasons. For married couples, their mortgage is usually based on both incomes. “Cut that salary in half, and even if your income is the higher of the two, house payments, insurance, property taxes and upkeep is often too much to handle for most spouses alone,” stated Steffen. “Do not overlook the potential capital gains tax ramifications as well. If you are married and selling a home, you can exclude up to $500,000 in profit; single, and the capital gains exclusions drops in half to $250,000.”

To be eligible for this exclusion, Steffen explains, you must have lived in your home for two of the last five years. The home must also be your personal residence, and not an investment property.

No. 3: Emotional reasons. With the departure of one’s spouse, the once happy home can quickly become unpleasant to live in. Memories of better times – or the bad times – can taint the comfort you once experienced living there. “Some people are just not interested in going through these feelings day in and day out,” added Steffen. “Sometimes in divorce, the intent to keep the home has more to do with retaliation than the desire to retain the home. This is one of the more prominent reasons why the spouse that has retained occupancy often decides that keeping the house was not all it was cracked up to be.”

No. 4: Liability reasons. If one person wants to keep the house, the other should be very clear on what that means. There are multiple ways to keep a house and let one spouse remain in it, but each carries difficulties and risks.

Take over the mortgage: If the spouse who wants the home has enough income they can refinance the home, thereby completely eliminating the other spouse’s liability. Refinancing transfers ownership, but does not address how the equity in the home gets allocated. This usually means consulting a divorce attorney, and may require that the home be sold.

Co-own the home: The remaining spouse can make full payments, or you can both agree to a percentage. This requires a great amount of trust. Should the remaining spouse fall behind or fail to make the payments, the departing spouse will suffer the same credit issues and mortgage problems of the defaulting spouse.

“The divorce Realtor you select is important, given that there could be two parties that might not be getting along,” concluded Steffen. “It is crucial that you choose a Realtor who is not only experienced in divorce real estate transactions, but also understands the nature of divorce and the emotional challenges that exist.”

Discreezips Launches One-of-A-Kind App to Enhance Communication Between Women and Their Loved Ones


News Image

Discreezips launches its app to contribute to the efforts of the brand’s mission – to provide young girls and women with the tools to make them feel more comfortable discussing their bodies and feelings.

Discreezips is available in the Apple App Store and Google Play Store, and helps women monitor their menstrual cycles while offering tips and tricks that promote health and motherhood.

The app is designed to collect, store and facilitate the gathering of information like symptoms, feelings, cravings, and challenges of pregnancy, menstruation and ovulation. It also helps loved ones understand their elderly relatives who are approaching or experiencing menopause.

The aforementioned experiences are critical in a woman’s life, and are often difficult to communicate — hence the app, which is designed in part to resolve miscommunication. The app can serve as a first point of communication and assists women in expressing symptoms they feel. It aggregates and saves information, allowing the user to share her feelings without the awkward attention that often accompanies those conversations.

Women on the app are classified in three categories: Sprouts (elementary through age 20), Blossoms (ages 20 to 40) and Booms (40 and older). Data is processed in conjunction with their age and analyzed accordingly in a digestible manner.

Discreezips is a valuable tool for men as well in helping them better understand the important women in their lives and the challenges they experience. The app and website are assets for women and their families as they navigate the ups and downs of their daily lives.
