I am in class right now, and yes, I'm writing a post. Bad girl. yes i know. things are good here, busy. I'm balancing school, homework, ladies class, knitting class, house work, education entrance things, and on and on... So, here's my little encouragement to myself and to you.
Read and pray every day
Because life passes fast away.
Hold on to the ones you love
don't forget to give a hug.
Busy is a word we use
when we need an excuse
what are you busy doing?
are you growing
or just moving?
For all the busy ladies out there, keep growing spiritually! =)
Hey Miss Lauren, how are you? I told Justin you should check out my blog on here for preachers wives. I'm wvpreacherswife. It's a goofy little blog. There are a bunch of articles. I like your poem. That's very good.
It was great to see Justin preaching God's Word with all his heart to the Christians at Harpersville this past week. It went really well. We're going to miss the Hartselles though. They move to Cullman at the beginning of June. They have been so kind and generous to us. They are just like our grandparents.=) God bless them.
Suzanna and Todd Taylor had their little baby girl (Lexi jo) yesterday. She is precious and has lots of hair. =) God be praised for keeping them safe and healthy.
My niecy Claire is smilling a lot more now. It really can melt my heart when she does that. I wonder if God made babies for the purpose of reminding us of pure simple love that never wavers. One smile from a little baby and love and awe just washes over you. Maybe babies are a glimpse of the purity and love of God. =)
Hey chica!! It was wonderful to see you too!!! I am sorry that I had to leave and go to my friend's house but I did not want to disappoint her and make her mad at me. I had several things planned for me and you to do together when you and Justin came over to the house but my ideas got diminished because she was the kind of person that if you do not go over to her house when she asks you to then she gets mad and you know how the rest of it goes so I apologize so much for that! Sweet!! Did Mom tell you about the Eastside getogether?? That will be so cool if you get to go!! I promise you if you go, I am going to spend so much time with you to make up for not spending enough time with you when you came over!! Just let me know if you are going to it!! :D Lauren, I just need you to pray for me on the growing in the Lord part because with certain things going on in high school worldly and sinful things look very tempting to me especially when I am going through a lot like I am now. I do not want to elaborate on it a lot but it feels like I am leaning more towards the World Side instead of the Christian Side which is where I am supposed to be and feels like I am about to cave into the world. It is very urgent that Christians like you and Justin continue to pray for me. Whenever I see you again and we have time to talk about it, I will tell you more in depth about it. Well, I am getting sleepy and I have an early day with Dad tomorrow on his route so I will talk to you later girl! I LOVE YOU!!!♥
Hey everyone! I am officially on pleonast. =) My hubby's been telling me how wonderful it is so I decided to give it a try. =) So far I like it. =) Thursday starts the meeting in Harpersville if anyone can come. We would love to see you. =) School's almost over - yay! I'm ready for summer and for my little niecy Claire to come home so I can spoil her rotten =) To all my Auburn buddies - miss you guys; hope all is well in the best place in the world! Hope to talk to lots of u now on pleo.
I went outside today and it feels so perfect outside. I was thinking about how at this time of the year especially it's extra hard for me to believe how anyone could not believe there is a GREAT MAKER of this world. every beautiful aspect of the world around us cries out as God's creation. Turning a blind eye(or is it really a blind heart) to the cherry trees, the flowers blooming, the butterflies(I love the yellow ones. They're so happy looking.)and the birds singing is the most awful thought. I don't want to miss watching God paint the most beautiful pictures of His world. God is definitely beautiful beyond description=)
aww. I miss you!! Come visit soon. Hopefully I'll get to see you guys this week! I started working a second job and it's taking up ALL my extra time right now. GRRR. Things are goin really well though.
I know you're so excited that Claire (and of course matthew and rachel) is comin home! I'm gonna miss seeing them all the time.
Psalm 65:5 By awesome deeds You answer us in righteousness, O God of our salvation, You who are the trust of all the ends of the earth and of the farthest sea;
Psalm 66:3 Say to God, "How awesome are Your works! Because of the greatness of Your power Your enemies will give obedience to You.
Psalm 18:44 As soon as they hear, they obey me; Foreigners submit to me.
Psalm 47:2 For the LORD Most High is to be feared, A great King over all the earth.
Micah 7:18-19
Who is a God like You, who pardons sin and forgives the transgression of the remnant of His inheritance? You do not stay angry forever but delight to show mercy. You will again have compassion on us; You will tread our sins underfoot and hurl all our iniquities into the depths of the sea.
Aloha chica! I am so glad you got a blog on here! Welcome to the 'Nast!!!!!!!!!! :D **big hug** Lately things have been going wild.
