Bible in 90 Days...refresh me!

I had a weekend away with my kids and family to visit my sister and went to the mountains for the first time in my adult life (I'm from the beach).  It was a neat experience.  I am back now and refreshed ready to enjoy the rest of the summer.  While I was gone I signed up for reading the Bible in 90 Days here.  I am very excited and nervous.  My "one word" for 2011 was REFRESH.  I did not want to be joining all kinds of Bible studies and activities but wanted to refresh my relationship with the Lord.  I feel I was led to start it, and hope I heard right and will be blessed and taught by this journey.  What better way to be refreshed in Him than to read His Word daily, and really soak it in.

He is teaching me something and I am looking forward to what all He wants me to learn.  Today was day 1.  It will go through, I believe, October 8th.  I will, and am writing it here for a reminder, not going to join into any Bible studies (although I know I will be very tempted to because I am a social girl and love joining them and fellowshipping and all that great stuff that goes along with Bible studies).  I will only be spending time in God's Word with my journal and a pen and also joining for the first time, MOPS.  Much looking forward to that, and it is nothing in depth but time for moms and I am excited for that.

So thats what is going on with me right now.  God is doing a new thing.  I will write more later...

Love to you!

End of one journey and start of a new

I am coming to the last week of my Thin Within study. While I will continue learning in the Thin Within materials because there is so much more I can learn and grow from there, I am starting a new little journey in the area of eating and my relationship with God for 65 days through Reshaping it All by Candace Cameron Bure. I an going to try and post here what I'm learning and anything else I feel led to share.


Another little journey I start for the month of May is 31 Days to Clean by Sara Mae. It is a devotional and gets to the heart regarding cleaning our homes and that is definitely an area that I am not natural at, so I am excited to learn a lot in this area.  


Of course, without the Lord as my strength guiding me I can't do any of this.  I really hope I am not diving in trying too much, and that my intentions are pure here.  These are two areas I feel I am lacking in my life right now and I am wanting to learn more in them and grow!  In the process, grow closer to the Lord and becoming who He wants me to be.

Proverbs 3:5-6 (Amp) ⁵Lean on, trust in, and be confident in the Lord with all your heart and mind and do not rely on your own insight or understanding.  ⁶In all your ways know, recognize, and acknowledge Him, and He will direct and make straight and plain your paths.

So Lord I am comitting my ways to You here, even though I feel like a robot lately and can't seem to be still, please show me what I need to hear and learn through this.  I need refreshing in my relationship with You and with my life in all areas.  Direct my paths Lord.  In Jesus Name, Amen
