If the #2 pencil is so popular, why is it not #1? Could someone who has a “fear of long words,” tell people they have Hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia? Why is the word for this fear so long? Why do they put Braille dots on the keypad of the drive up ATM? I’m sure you’ve heard there’s no…… Continue reading Stupid Questions, Today is YOUR Day
I have been completely absent for about 6 months now, but thankfully, two new emails this last week alerted me to a new follower (so glad to have you following me and for you wanting to read what I have to say) has catapulted me into wanting to get this blog back on track and…… Continue reading Grateful in the Mundane
Hi friends! I’m so thankful for all of my faithful readers and followers. You mean the world to me.
We have a bit of sadness going on around here lately.
My family found out last weekend that our landlord of nine years has decided to sell our condo. What that means for us, is we have to move.
Today, we’re going to see what the Bible has to say about how to pray.
How empowering was it to learn in post 1, that prayer is so many things? I know it helped me better understand that even though God is omniscient, my prayers show him I long for and want a relationship with him.
Well, hold on to your hats, because today we’re going to learn just how prayer is all of the things we’ve already learned and a WHOLE LOT MORE!
Scripture gives many examples of what prayer is.For the month of September, I am sharing with everyone what I’ve learned about prayer and praying. In the last post, I shared what the Bible says about prayer.
One of the greatest things in the Bible, to me, is when one of the disciples asked Jesus to teach them to pray. The lesson and the teaching still hold true. Come, let’s learn about prayer
So, on one of the nights when I was doing my Bible study, I realized I had pages and pages of notes on prayer, eight pages to be exact. Suddenly, you know how those ah-ha moments go, I’m thinking, DUH!, write about praying and prayer. Heck, make it a series for the whole month of September.
And that, my friends is what we’re going to be exploring all month.
Some think I’m crazy. Maybe I am. As an autumn baby (although not a September baby), my favorite season has always been fall and September begins the journey. September isn’t as spectacular as October and doesn’t hold the thankfulness of November, but in it’s own right, September has a special place. Some month had to go first in fall and September got the spot.
When life tumbles you and tosses you in the storms of life, there is One who can calm the seas and bring you certain peace. God is bigger than any storm you face.
