busy, busy, busy

so this week has been crazy busy! lots and lots of homework to do. you know, the usual. I also spent quite a few hours at church doing childcare for a parenting seminar. i love babies. i think that they are so cute and adorable {even the ones that cry}. I love being able to play with them and make them smile. i especially love rocking them to sleep. so great! though i was gone a bit longer than i had planned, it was such a fun way to spend the weekend.

exodus. like the second book in the bible. this is what last night and this afternoon was filled with. and though the assignment took a very long time, the effort is so worth it. god revealed such great applications for life and they are doing cartwheels in my mind:

~god will provide: what a great reminder that even when it feels like everything is falling apart or going crazy i know that god will provide everything i need.

~god works in his own time: we cannot rush god. god has everything planned out and his timing is perfect. we just need to be patient and wait on

~we shouldn't put anything above our relationship with god: aka don't make idols in your life. and i don't just mean golden calves. if you don't make time for god in your day then something is more important than him. plain and simple.

~we should give thanks: we are a blessed people. we have so many things to be thankful for yet we grump around complaining about the things we don't like. if we spent as much time praising god for his provision and goodness then the world would be a much more encouraging place. stop complaining and start thanking


at the moment i am so thankful for candles. they smell absolutely wonderful and make a room feel cozy. i have a candle warmer in my room and the scent of warm vanilla sugar is wafting around and it make me happy.

share the things you are thankful for with the people around your because it is encouraging to hear how god has blessed his people :)
