Thank you!!!!

Today i am thankful for

- the boredom and energy that over took me today giving me the time and energy to rearrange all my kids toys and set them up in a new way and watch the kids excitingly play with their toys again.

-the nerves and butterflies i get from a guy i like and the excitement and anticipation as to what the future may hold for me.

Day 3: Meditate on God's Word.

How can a young person stay on the path of purity?
By living according to your word.
I seek you with all my heart;
do not let me stray from your commands.
I have hidden your word in my heart
that I might not sin against you.

I meditate on your precepts
and consider your ways.
I delight in your decrees;
I will not neglect your word.
Psalm 119:9-11, 15-16

Spend time Meditating on God's Word...

Day 2: Commit Yourself to Time Alone with God.

Very early in the morning, while it was still dark, Jesus got up, left the house and went off to a solitary place, where he prayed. Simon and his companions went to look for him, 37 and when they found him, they exclaimed: “Everyone is looking for you!” Jesus replied, “Let us go somewhere else—to the nearby villages—so I can preach there also. That is why I have come.” So he traveled throughout Galilee, preaching in their synagogues and driving out demons.
Mark 1: 35-39

today we are meant to create an area to spend time with God. we also need to decided on a time that we will commit to spending time with God every day..

during winter this is my space in front of the fire with music playing softly. as i struggle with the cold this will be at night after the kids are in bed.

During summer i plan on creating an area outside where i can soak up the sun. this will most likely be first thing in the morning before the kids wake up.

Day 1: Place Your Full Confidence in God.

A wife of a noble character who can find?
she is worth far more then rubies.
her husband has full confidence in her
and lacks nothing of value
Proverbs 31:10-11

"for your maker is your husband -
the Lord Almighty is his name -
the Holy one of Israel is your redeemer;
he is called the god of all the earth.
the Lord will call you back as if you were a wife deserted and distressed in the spirit -
a wife who married young.
only to be rejected," says your God
Isaiah 54:5-6
