New Year...New Resolutions

Hi Friends!

New Year's Resolutions ... many of us make them and many of us have probably already broken them. :) One of my resolutions this year is to make prayer an important part of my day and life. My goal is to be more engaged, purposeful and accountable in my prayer life. I believe that, My Path with God - Daily Journal, will help keep me on track. I would love to say that this is one of many resolutions I have this year but truthfully this is my main one. With a new baby and lack of sleep i believe this daily journal will help focus me and deepen my relationship with God. Check out this daily journal (has places to write your prayers, confessions, Bible verses etc) or create your own! In8 Enterprises Purchase Page

Feel free to share your New Year's resolutions. I would love to see what everyone is making a priority this year and how everyone plans on keeping them.

Pumpkin Carving Activity and Prayer

This is a great activity and prayer

....especially for little ones! 

I hope everyone has a safe and fun Halloween!

Dear God, 
 
As I carve my pumpkin, help me say this prayer: 
 
Open my mind so I can learn about You; 
(Cut the top of the pumpkin) 
 
Take away all my sin and forgive me for the 
wrong things I do; (Clean out the inside) 
 
Open my eyes so Your Love I will see; 
(Cut eyes shaped like hearts) 
 
I'm sorry for turning up my nose to all You've given me; 
(Cut a nose in the shape of the cross) 
 
Open my ears so Your Word I will hear; 
(Cut ears shaped like the Bible) 
 
Open my mouth so I can tell others You're near; 
(Cut mouth in the shape of a fish) 
 
Let Your Light shine in all I say and do! Amen. 
(Place a candle and light)

An Amazing Bible Study....

If you have ever done one of Priscilla Shirer's Bible studies you know how fantastic they are....if you have not you should start one!

I am doing Priscilla's, Jonah - Navigating a Life Interrupted.  I am really enjoying her videos and the daily studies.  I have laughed, discovered and been convicted in this wonderful study.  I highly recommed it to everyone!

Visit www.lifeway.com/women for all of Priscilla's Bible studies.

MOPS

MOPS has begun again!  Yeah!!!  Such an amazing organization and resourse for moms.

We were blessed to have Shelly Radic, chief of staff at MOPS International, come and speak with our group this week.  She is an amazing mentor and speaker.  We all really enjoyed her discussion.

This MOPS year we will be studying her book, Momology...A Mom's Guide to Shaping Great Kids.  I have really enjoyed reading it, and can not wait to dive deeper into it this MOPS year.  I highly recommend it to all moms!

Back again....

Took some time off keeping up with the blog this summer.....

It was a fun and busy summer that went by way to fast!  Also, finally feeling better....morning sickness at the beginning of this pregnancy was rough.  I am now just battling being tired all the time.  :)

So I will try to get back on and post more often!  I am also starting to work on, Our Easter Legacy.

Check out our new page on the blog....Purchase!

Thank you for your support. 

What are some of your favorite Bible Verses?

Today I am compiling some of my favorite Bible verses for an event that we are holding at our church....

Here are a few of mine.....

"Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles, and let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us."  Hebrews 12:1

"Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path."  Psalm 119:105

"For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life."  John 3:16

Now please share some of yours......
