Uploading photos… and reflections on some reading…

Nov 8, 2009 …

Yesterday I stayed home all day! I basically did two things: finished catching up typing (since June 16th!) my journaling (PenAndPaperMama and MyChurchJourney) and uploaded them to the blog sites. And in the evening I talked to my sister on the phone for almost 2 hours!

I got . . . → Read More: Uploading photos… and reflections on some reading…

Finances… and OT/NT disconnect?

July 16, 2009

Neighbor party woke me up about 4:30 or 4:45 am. Part of it was an argument, and I started praying for them… and when I did, the arguing ended! But the party carried on until about 5:20 or 5:30. Meanwhile, after praying, You suddenly gave me a “revelation” (at . . . → Read More: Finances… and OT/NT disconnect?

Walks… and wisdom…

July 15, 2009

This morning I got up, did my back/ core exercises, then had a high protein and whole grains breakfast (wanting to bust my belly fat, lol!). Then went for a long walk, about 4 to 5 miles, I think. Up and down along the hillside back of our place. . . . → Read More: Walks… and wisdom…

Baking and Bibles and Baptisms

June 20, 2009

Up about 6:30 am. Laundry, breakfast, wash floors, vacuum. Walkabout with my son. Go to farmer’s market with hubby, get lots of greens, and fresh garden strawberries (so much tastier than the store-bought ones!). Still trying to get my Bible reading done.

My son-in-law brought my grandson over . . . → Read More: Baking and Bibles and Baptisms

Notes from Nov 18: zealous wrongs

Hard time waking up… just wanted to go back to sleep!  Maybe partly to finish my dream… but also guess I’m just “unwinding.”  I feel like I’ve been running on adrenaline… and yes, on sugar and caffeine!  Today I change my diet back to healthy!  Yikes!  I was eating terribly!  Must restart exercises too!  And get . . . → Read More: Notes from Nov 18: zealous wrongs

Oct 30 notes: multiplied words, humility… and holiness!

I do not want it said of me, “She multiplies words without knowledge” (Job 35:6).

I also never want to think of myself thus:  “One who is perfect in knowledge is with you.” (Job 36:4)

That is scary!  Only God is perfect in knowledge, and any person who thinks that he/she is thus, is seriously delusional!  (And dangerous . . . → Read More: Oct 30 notes: multiplied words, humility… and holiness!

Notes from Oct 20: God’s way vs our way… pride before a fall

Just “reading through” in Exodus – the crossing of the Red Sea, the manna… and the expectation of God for His people of holiness, righteoushess, obedience – they had the cloud (and fire) to guide them: and the word of God through Moses:  Moses was God’s friend: close, intimate relationship!

We have a “friend who sticks closer . . . → Read More: Notes from Oct 20: God’s way vs our way… pride before a fall

Learning to wait patiently… and honor others… and being holy!

October 14, 2008 (again!)

Today’s reading was from 1 Samuel 21 to 25.  Saul was chasing David around the desert, trying to kill him… but David was refusing to attack him back or hill him, because Saul was the LORD’s anointed.  Even though David was the newly anointed one, and knew that someday he would be king, . . . → Read More: Learning to wait patiently… and honor others… and being holy!

Thank You for Your amazing Word and Spirit – and for being freed from “compulsion to get involved”

October 13, 2008

I have been really convicted to get back into real study and meditation in God’s Word.  I had finished my study of God’s attribute and our responses, from the Psalms, and have still been doing my current “read-through-the-Bible” (though I occasionally get behind)…  and I had planned to pick up a study of Exodus . . . → Read More: Thank You for Your amazing Word and Spirit – and for being freed from “compulsion to get involved”

Jeremiah 9:23-24 “Thus says the LORD, ‘Let not a wise man boast of his wosdom, and let not the mighty man boast of his might, let not a rich man boast of his riches;

but let him who boasts boast of this, that he understands and knows Me, that I am the LORD who exercises . . . → Read More: Boast
