So I just came across my blog after years of neglecting to keep myself accountable to writing. My idea to start a blog was initially to record the things I'm learning in Scripture and keep myself accountable to quiet times and seeking after God in my daily tasks. Of course, I would love to enter in the presence of God and be worshiping the Holy of Holies on my face, but when my day just won't allow for that, I can pause and thank God for the way He holds everything together around me. So today, I can start again refreshed and restored.
Things I'm focusing on today:
1. Serving my husband and family by getting the laundry caught up, baking some yummy treats to freeze for those cravings around 10pm, and getting my household organized so Joel doesn't have to do much work when he gets home.
2. Researching the conclave and interceding on behalf of the cardinals that have to vote in a new pope. I am praying that he is a godly man who will be after God's own heart, like David. I pray that he will be a man who works to restore the Catholic church back to a stature of holiness and compassion.
3. Getting some time in the Word to learn more about my God who is outside of time, who is the God of all creation and yet still knows the number of hairs on my head. None other can be so close...
4. And of course, I am still determined to keep my flesh in line with my desire to be in a healthy weight range and take care of the body my God entrusted to me.
Until the next time...Be blessed. Rejoice in all things.
